Privacy Policy
This Privacy Policy describes how the Cross-Civilization Intelligence and Action Framework ("CCIAF", "we", "us") collects, uses, and protects information in connection with this website and the advisory engagements that arise from it. By using the site or initiating an enquiry, you confirm that you have read and understood this Policy.
1. Scope
This Policy applies to (a) your visits to this CCIAF site, including any sub-domains under minhaaj.com, and (b) the data you provide if you initiate or enter into an advisory engagement with CCIAF. It does not cover third-party sites linked from these pages.
2. Information We Collect
Information you provide voluntarily.
- Enquiry information — when you write to us at the published email address, we receive your message, your email address, and any context you choose to share.
- Engagement information — clients who proceed to a Tier I, II, or III engagement provide birth data (date, time, place of birth), and where relevant founding-date data for institutional applications, and decision context. This information is used solely to produce the engagement deliverables.
Information collected automatically. Our hosting infrastructure may log standard request metadata (IP address, browser type, referrer, timestamp) for security, integrity, and aggregate-analytics purposes. We do not use advertising cookies, cross-site tracking, or third-party behavioural targeting.
3. Information We Do Not Collect
We do not collect government identifiers, financial account numbers, biometric data, or — knowingly — information about minors. Payment-related information, when applicable, is handled by third-party payment processors and is not stored on our infrastructure.
4. How We Use Information
- To respond to your enquiry and, where appropriate, to scope an engagement.
- To prepare, deliver, and discuss the deliverables of an engagement you have entered into.
- To maintain the security, stability, and integrity of the site.
- To comply with legal, regulatory, and tax obligations.
We do not use your information for automated decision-making producing legal or similarly significant effects on you.
5. Confidentiality of Engagement Information
Client information — including birth data, founding-date data, decision context, and the content of engagement deliverables — is held under strict confidentiality. It is not shared, sold, exchanged, or used for any purpose other than the engagement itself, except (a) where you have given specific written consent, (b) where disclosure is required by law, or (c) where, in anonymised and unidentifiable form, we may use insights drawn from completed engagements to refine the framework's calibration record.
6. Sharing and Disclosure
We do not sell, rent, or trade personal data. We share information only with: (a) infrastructure and hosting providers acting on our behalf under appropriate contractual obligations; (b) qualified professional advisors (legal, tax) bound by their own duties of confidentiality; or (c) where required by law, regulation, court order, or to protect the rights and safety of CCIAF, its clients, or others.
7. International Data Transfers
The site may be operated from, and data processed in, jurisdictions outside your country of residence. Where personal data of EU/UK data subjects is transferred outside the EEA/UK, we rely on adequacy decisions, Standard Contractual Clauses, or equivalent lawful safeguards.
8. Data Retention
We retain personal data only as long as necessary for the purposes described in this Policy, or as required by law. Engagement records are retained for the duration of the relationship and for a period thereafter consistent with professional record-keeping standards and applicable law. You may request deletion of your data at any time, subject to legal exceptions.
9. Your Rights
Depending on your jurisdiction, you may have rights to access, rectify, erase, restrict, or port your personal data, to object to processing, to withdraw consent, and to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority. To exercise these rights, contact us at the address below. We will respond within 30 days or the period required by applicable law.
10. Security
We implement reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect personal data, including encryption in transit (TLS), access controls, and confidentiality obligations on anyone with access. No system is absolutely secure; in the event of a personal data breach affecting your data, we will notify you and the relevant supervisory authorities as required by law.
11. Children's Privacy
The site and the engagements it leads to are not directed at children. We do not knowingly collect data from anyone under the age of 16. If you believe a child has provided personal data, please contact us and we will delete it.
12. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Policy from time to time. The effective date at the top of this page reflects the most recent revision. Material changes will be communicated by a prominent notice on the site for at least 30 days before they take effect.
