PRIVACY POLICY
Last Updated: 17/11/2025
This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and protect personal data when you visit this Website (“Website Name”).
We operate in accordance with the Qatar Personal Data Privacy Protection Law (PDPL – Law No. 13 of 2016) and applicable international privacy principles.
1. Information We Collect
A. Information You Provide Directly
This Website has no contact form, no comment section, and no sign-up or subscription feature. It does not ask you for your name, your email address, or any other personal detail, and there is nothing on it that submits information about you.
The Contact page lists an email address and social media profiles. If you choose to write to one of those, your message goes to that inbox or to that platform directly — it does not pass through this Website and is not stored by it.
B. Information Collected Automatically
The Website uses Vercel Analytics and Vercel Speed Insights, provided by its hosting company, to count page views and measure page loading speed. These record limited technical data:
- Which page was viewed, and the page you arrived from
- Approximate country, derived from your IP address
- Browser, device type, and operating system
- Page loading performance measurements
This measurement is aggregated and is not used to build a profile of you or to identify you individually. The hosting provider also keeps standard server request logs, which include IP addresses, for security and reliability purposes.
2. Legal Basis for Processing Personal Data
We process personal data only when:
- You have given explicit consent (e.g., by submitting a form)
- It is necessary to provide you with information
- It is required for website security and performance
3. How We Use Your Information
We may use your information to:
- Respond to your inquiries
- Improve the Website content and performance
- Analyze visitor interactions and traffic
- Maintain website security and functionality
We DO NOT sell or rent your personal information.
4. Cookies and Tracking Technologies
The Website does not set advertising or tracking cookies, and it does not use third-party advertising networks. The analytics described above are cookieless.
It stores one item in your browser’s local storage: your language choice (English or Arabic), so the site opens in the language you last selected. This stays on your own device, is never sent to us, and is cleared whenever you clear your browsing data.
A cookie is set in one case only: when the site’s own administrator signs in to manage its content. That cookie identifies the administrator’s session and is never set for ordinary visitors.
5. Data Storage and Security
We take reasonable administrative and technical measures to protect the confidentiality and integrity of your data.
However, no online system is 100% secure.
6. International Data Transfers
Because the Website may use online tools or hosting providers located outside Qatar, your data may be stored or processed internationally.
We take reasonable steps to ensure compliance with Qatar PDPL and applicable international standards.
7. Third-Party Services
We may use third-party tools for:
- Website analytics
- Email communications
- Embedded content (videos, academic materials)
These third parties may collect data according to their own policies.
8. Your Rights
Depending on your jurisdiction, you may have rights to:
- Access your personal data
- Request correction
- Request deletion
- Withdraw consent
- Request information about data transfers
To exercise these rights, contact us via the email provided on the Website.
9. Updates to This Privacy Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy occasionally. Updates will be posted with a new “Last Updated” date.
