Private by Design
ISCN treats confidentiality as an absolute operating principle. This notice explains how website enquiries and online applications are handled.
Who Is Responsible for Your Information
The Islamic Centre Ltd, Company No. 15652088, operating as Islamic Sharia Council – Northern Britain, is responsible for the personal information collected through this website. Privacy enquiries may be sent to salam@theislamicshariacouncil.org.uk.
What the Website Collects
The enquiry form asks for your name, contact details, the service required and a brief message. Please do not use it to send identity documents, detailed evidence, religious case records or other highly sensitive material.
Why We Use It
We use the information to respond to you, identify the appropriate service and explain a secure next step. It is not published, used as a testimonial or used for unrelated marketing.
Who May Have Access
Access is limited to authorised administrators and, where required for the requested service, the relevant scholars or Islamic Adjudication Council. Technical service providers may process limited information where necessary to operate the website, email and secure case systems.
Retention and Your Rights
Website enquiries and case records are retained only for the approved period for their purpose and are then securely deleted or anonymised, subject to any legal or safeguarding requirement. You may ask about your information or exercise your data-protection rights by contacting us. You may also complain to the UK Information Commissioner’s Office.
Religious and Case Records
Applications, adjudication decisions, Fatwa responses and named certificates are private records. They are handled through the appropriate secure process rather than the general website form.
For further information about retention, service providers, international transfers or your data-protection rights, contact salam@theislamicshariacouncil.org.uk.
