  • Google Analytics collects anonymous, aggregated data such as page views, approximate location (country level), device type, and browser type.
  • We do not use this data to identify individual users.
  • You can opt out of Google Analytics by using a browser extension like Google Analytics Opt-out or by enabling "Do Not Track" in your browser.

  • Donorbox may collect your name and email for donation receipts. Please review Donorbox's Privacy Policy for details.

5. External Services

The site connects to external services to deliver content:

  • audio.quranmakkah.com — serves audio recitation files (hosted on Cloudflare R2)

These services may log standard web request data (IP address, user agent). We do not control their data practices.
