Privacy Policy


We understand that you have confidential information and want you to know that namuslims.org is committed to safeguarding your privacy online, and that we strive to make our site as safe and secure as reasonably possible. If you have any questions after reading the statement, please let us know. We want to hear from you! You can email us by using our contact us form.

Information Collection
During registration we ask for your name, country, state, zip/postal code, email address. In addition to the information we obtain at registration, we may ask you for information at other times, such as when you make a purchase or register for a service on namuslims.org, when you submit a listing for a Web site, or when you report a problem with one of our sites or services. If you contact namuslims.org we may keep a record of that correspondence. namuslims.org also may occasionally ask you to provide information to participate in certain voluntary promotions, surveys, or contests (see the section regarding this below). Finally, namuslims.org collects information about its Members in general, which does not necessarily identify the Member, using our server log files and some of the methods described under "cookies" below.

Partner Services or Linked sites
Certain products and services available through namuslims.org are made available by other companies with which namuslims.org has a strategic alliance. To obtain some of these other products and services you may be on the other company's Web site or a site they share with namuslims.org. When ordering, registering for, or purchasing products or services from these partners, you will be entering into an agreement with that partner, and not with namuslims.org. In these cases, this privacy policy does not apply; instead, the privacy policy of the partner actually providing the goods or services will apply. We urge you to read and understand our partners' policies before entering into agreements with them. We are committed to partnering with companies that share our privacy concerns. namuslims.org, however, can't control the way these partners collect or use information.

Also, when you click through to a partner's, an advertiser's, or other site linked from namuslims.org, those companies may use cookies or other means to collect information about you. Again, this privacy policy does not apply to those sites; instead, the privacy policy of the site you visit will apply.

If you have questions about our partners' privacy policies or the privacy policies of these other sites, we encourage you to contact them directly.

Why namuslims.org collect my information
namuslims.org uses your information to enable you to take advantage of the features available through the namuslims.org site. Once you register, you are no longer anonymous to namuslims.org: you are given a namuslims.org ID and are able to take full advantage of namuslims.org many offerings. Additional information you volunteer enables us to better customize your experience. We may also use your contact information to reach you regarding important issues about the use of our service.

We use other information we collect to get a better understanding of our Member base. The more insight we have into you-the people who use namuslims.org on a daily basis-the better we can serve you. Therefore, we analyze our users' demographics, interests, and behavior based on the information provided to us through our Web site. Our research and analysis is done on an aggregate basis, and is not intend to identify individual Members.

Sharing Information With Others
If you choose to receive information from our partners, namuslims.org (or agents working on behalf of namuslims.org and under confidentiality agreements) will send you these direct mailings. namuslims.org will not provide your information to our partners unless it is necessary to complete a purchase of a partner or co-branded product/service on namuslims.org that you have ordered. This may be necessary so that they may process your orders and ship, supply, maintain, or service the goods or services that you requested. If you register directly with another company reached through the namuslims.org site, then that company will have control over the information you provide.

Also, please pay attention to which services you register for when you register for namuslims.org. In some instances we have offered you the choice to register with certain of our partners at the same time you register at namuslims.org. If you choose to register with a partner, the information that you provide in registration may also be provided to that partner and will be subject to our partner's privacy policy. Our partner's policies as to the use of information may differ from namuslims.org policy. Again, we encourage you to review our partner's policies before you enter into agreements with them.

Sponsors/Contests/Surveys
Information we obtain from voluntary programs such as surveys, promotions, and contests may be subject to additional or different terms, or may be used in a slightly different way. If different terms do apply, details of the shared use of this information will be outlined in the specific terms and conditions or rules of these special surveys, promotions, or contests. Please be sure to read those specific terms and conditions because they may alter what is written in this Privacy Policy on a case-by-case basis.

Facebook Page, Group, and Events Policy
We Acknowledge that the promotion of our events, contests, and competitions are in no way sponsored, endorsed, administered by or associated with Facebook. Facebook is not associated with any entrant or participant.

Special Cases
namuslims.org may also disclose account information in special cases when we have reason to believe that disclosing this information is necessary to identify, contact, or bring legal action against someone who may be violating namuslims.org Terms of Use. The same policy applies in cases where we believe an individual may be causing injury to or interference with (either intentionally or unintentionally) namuslims.org rights or property, other namuslims.org users or Members, or anyone else that could be harmed by such activities. namuslims.org may disclose or access account information when we believe in good faith that the law requires it and for administrative and other purposes that we deem necessary to maintain, service, and improve our products and services. namuslims.org may also display entity names as part of the registration process to facilitate an individual registrant’s affiliation with the correct entity.
