Website visits and technical logs

Our hosting provider (HawkHost) may log standard server access information including IP addresses, browser type, and pages visited. This is retained for up to 30 days for security and operational purposes. Lawful basis: legitimate interests (maintaining a secure and functioning website).

Donation processing

When you make a donation via SumUp, your payment details are processed by SumUp directly. We receive a record of the donation amount, date, and payment reference. We do not receive or store your full card number. Lawful basis: contract (to process your donation).

Gift Aid information

If you indicate Gift Aid eligibility, we may collect your name and home address to submit a Gift Aid claim to HMRC. This information is shared with HMRC as required by law. We retain Gift Aid declarations for six years as required by HMRC. Lawful basis: legal obligation.

Direct contact enquiries (phone and in person)

If you contact the masjid by phone or in person, any personal details you provide (such as your name and contact number) are used only to respond to your enquiry, and are not stored beyond what is operationally necessary. Lawful basis: legitimate interests.

Events and programme announcements

Events listed on this website are sourced from masjid administration and community WhatsApp communications. Speaker names and programme details are included. If you wish to have your details removed from an event listing, contact us. Lawful basis: legitimate interests (community information).

Obituary notices, funeral details, and condolence announcements

This is sensitive personal data. We treat it with additional care.

Names of deceased individuals and funeral information are published only with the knowledge and agreement of the family or an authorised representative. Health details are not published unless strictly necessary. Lawful basis: explicit consent from the family (or legitimate interests where public religious duty is the purpose). Retention: obituary notices are removed from the website at the request of the family, or after a reasonable time.

Dua requests

Dua requests submitted to the masjid may involve illness, personal difficulties, or religious beliefs — all of which are special category data. We do not publish personal dua requests on the public website. Where names are mentioned in congregational duas, this is done with permission. Lawful basis: explicit consent.

Livestream, photography, and media

Events at the masjid may be livestreamed on YouTube or recorded. People present in congregation areas may appear incidentally in recordings. The livestream is a public broadcast in a public religious setting. We make reasonable efforts to avoid focusing on individuals who indicate they do not wish to appear. If you have concerns about a recording, contact us. Lawful basis: legitimate interests (community access to religious programmes).

YouTube embeds on this website use privacy-enhanced mode (youtube-nocookie.com) to reduce YouTube tracking.

Volunteer and committee data

Names and contact details of committee members and volunteers are held for organisational purposes and are not published without consent. Lawful basis: legitimate interests.
