We are committed to protecting the privacy of every family we serve, especially children.

By using our website or services, you agree to the practices described in this policy. If you do not agree, please do not use our website or services.

1. Who we are (data controller)

QuranForKids is an online Quran academy based in Karachi, Pakistan, teaching students around the world. QuranForKids is the “data controller” responsible for your personal information. Our contact details are at the end of this policy.

2.3 Information from third parties

Basic profile information from messaging or video platforms (for example, your WhatsApp display name) when you contact us through them.
Advertising and analytics providers, which may tell us how you found our website (for example, from a Google search or a social-media advert).

3. How we use your information

To respond to enquiries and arrange free trial classes;
To assess the student’s level and match them with a suitable male or female teacher;
To schedule and deliver live one-to-one online classes;
To track attendance and progress and share reports with parents;
To process payments, issue invoices and receipts, and handle refunds and disputes;
To send class reminders, schedule changes, holiday notices and other service messages;
To provide customer support and handle complaints;
To monitor teaching quality and train our teachers;
To improve our website, courses, pricing and services;
To send news, offers and Islamic learning content, only where you have agreed (you can opt out at any time);
To detect and prevent fraud, abuse, spam and security incidents;
To comply with legal, tax, accounting and regulatory obligations.

4. Legal bases for processing

Where data-protection laws such as the UK GDPR or EU GDPR apply, we rely on the following legal bases:

Contract: to provide the classes you or your child enrolled in and to take payment.
Consent: for marketing messages, non-essential cookies and, where required, for processing a child’s information (given by the parent or guardian). You may withdraw consent at any time.
Legitimate interests: to run, secure and improve our services, prevent fraud and maintain teaching quality, where these interests are not overridden by your rights.
Legal obligation: to keep financial records and respond to lawful requests from authorities.

5. Payments and payment processors

We do not collect or store full card numbers, CVV codes, bank login details or wallet PINs. Payments are processed securely by third-party payment processors, which may include:

PayFast (Pakistan) – debit/credit cards, bank accounts and mobile wallets;
PayPal – PayPal balance, cards and bank accounts;
Stripe – international debit and credit cards;
Whop – online checkout and subscriptions;
Bank transfer – directly to our bank account.

These processors handle your payment information under their own privacy policies and security standards, such as PCI-DSS. They share with us only what we need to confirm and manage your payment, such as your name, email, amount, currency, payment status and transaction ID. Payment processors may also carry out their own fraud and identity checks. Please read the privacy policy of the processor you use.

6. Children’s privacy

Most of our students are children. A child’s account is always created by a parent or legal guardian, who gives consent for us to process the child’s information.
We collect only the information needed to teach the child and keep the parent informed.
We do not knowingly allow children under 13 to contact us or sign up without a parent. If we learn that we have collected a child’s information without parental consent, we will delete it.
Children do not have public profiles on our website, and we never sell children’s data or use it for targeted advertising.
We encourage parents to be present or nearby during classes for young children.
Parents may review, correct or delete their child’s information at any time by contacting us.

7. Class recordings, photos and testimonials

We do not record classes unless the parent or adult student agrees. Where a class is recorded (for example, for quality checks or so the student can revise), it is stored securely and deleted when no longer needed.
We will never publish a student’s photo, video, voice or recitation, or a parent’s testimonial, without written permission. You may withdraw permission at any time.

8. Cookies and analytics

Cookies are small text files stored on your device. We use:

Essential cookies: to make the website and forms work and to protect against spam (for example, Google reCAPTCHA).
Analytics cookies: to understand how visitors use our site, for example through Google Analytics (via Google Site Kit).
Marketing cookies: where used, to measure the results of our adverts.

You can block or delete cookies in your browser settings, and you can opt out of Google Analytics using Google’s opt-out browser add-on. Some parts of the website may not work properly without cookies.

9. How we share your information

We do not sell or rent your personal information. We share it only with:

Our teachers and staff, who need it to schedule and teach your classes;
Payment processors listed in section 5, to take payments and issue refunds;
Service providers who help us run our business, such as website hosting, email (Google Workspace), messaging and video-call tools (WhatsApp, Zoom, Microsoft Teams, Skype), analytics and anti-spam services. They act on our instructions and must keep your information confidential;
Professional advisers such as accountants and lawyers, where needed;
Authorities, where required by law, court order or to protect the rights, safety or property of our students, staff or others;
A buyer or successor, if our business is reorganised, merged or sold, in which case your information would remain protected by this policy.

10. International data transfers

Our team is based in Pakistan and our students live in many countries. Your information may be processed in Pakistan and in other countries where our service providers operate, including the United States and the European Union. Where required, we use appropriate safeguards (such as the service provider’s standard contractual clauses) to protect information transferred internationally.

11. How long we keep your information

Trial enquiries that do not lead to enrolment: up to 12 months.
Student and learning records: while the student is enrolled and for up to 2 years afterwards, so that returning students can continue from where they left off.
Payment and accounting records: for as long as tax and accounting laws require (usually up to 6 years).
Class recordings (if any): no longer than 90 days unless you ask us to keep them.

When information is no longer needed, we delete or anonymise it securely.

12. How we protect your information

Encrypted HTTPS connections on our website;
Payments handled only by PCI-DSS compliant processors;
Access to student data limited to staff who need it, protected by passwords and two-step verification where available;
Regular backups and security updates on our servers;
Confidentiality commitments from our teachers and staff.

No system is 100% secure. If a data breach is likely to affect your rights, we will notify you and the relevant authorities as required by law.

13. Your rights

Depending on where you live, you may have the right to:

Access the personal information we hold about you or your child;
Correct inaccurate or incomplete information;
Ask us to delete your information;
Object to or restrict certain processing, including direct marketing;
Receive a copy of your information in a portable format;
Withdraw consent at any time, without affecting earlier processing.

UK and EU residents may also complain to their local data-protection authority, such as the UK Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO). California residents have rights under the CCPA/CPRA, including the right to know, delete and correct personal information. We do not sell or “share” personal information for cross-context behavioural advertising, and we will not discriminate against you for using your rights.

To make a request, email support@quranforkids.com. We may need to verify your identity, and we will reply within 30 days.

14. Marketing messages

We send promotional emails or WhatsApp messages only if you have agreed or are an existing customer, where the law allows. You can unsubscribe at any time by using the link in our email, replying “STOP” on WhatsApp, or contacting us. Service messages about your classes and payments will still be sent.

15. Third-party websites and platforms

Our website and classes may link to or use third-party services such as WhatsApp, Zoom, Microsoft Teams, Skype, YouTube and social media. Their own privacy policies apply, and we are not responsible for their practices.

16. Changes to this policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The latest version will always be on this page with its “Last updated” date. If we make important changes, we will tell enrolled families by email or WhatsApp.
