بِسْمِ اللهِ الرَّحْمٰنِ الرَّحِيْمِ
Your privacy is an Amanah — a sacred trust — that we take seriously.
﴿ إِنَّ اللَّهَ يَأْمُرُكُمْ أَن تُؤَدُّوا الْأَمَانَاتِ إِلَىٰ أَهْلِهَا ﴾
“Indeed, Allah commands you to render trusts to whom they are due.”— Al-Quran 4:58
313 Muslim is built on the Islamic principle of Amanah (trust). We treat your personal data with the same care and accountability that our faith demands of us in all matters.
This Privacy Policy describes how 313 Muslim, operated by eBlessings, collects, uses, stores, and protects information when you use our platform available at 313muslim.com and its associated applications. By using 313 Muslim, you agree to the practices described in this policy.
We are committed to handling your data with integrity and transparency. If you have any questions or concerns, please contact us.
We only collect information that is necessary to provide and improve our services. Below is a clear breakdown of what we collect and why.
Note on Sensitive Religious Data
Information about your faith practice, sect, or Quran reading level is strictly optional. We never share this information with third parties. It is used solely to personalise your in-app experience, such as showing relevant content or Quranic resources.
We use the information we collect for specific, legitimate purposes only. We do not sell your data or use it for purposes beyond those listed here.
Providing & Operating the Platform
Creating and maintaining your account, enabling core features such as posting, messaging, following, and community participation.
Personalising Your Experience
Tailoring your feed, recommending relevant Islamic content, scholars, or groups, and surfacing the Verse of the Day aligned with your interests.
Communication & Notifications
Sending account-related emails (password reset, verification), in-app notifications for activity on your posts, and optional digest emails you opt into.
Safety & Trust
Detecting and preventing spam, harassment, fraud, and content that violates Islamic community standards or applicable law.
Analytics & Improvement
Understanding how the platform is used in aggregate to improve performance, fix bugs, and build new features that serve the Ummah better.
Legal Compliance
Meeting our obligations under applicable data protection laws (GDPR, CCPA, and others), responding to lawful legal requests, and enforcing our Terms of Service.
Our Commitment: We Do Not Sell Your Data
313 Muslim will never sell, rent, or trade your personal information to third parties for their marketing purposes. Period.
We may share your information only in the limited circumstances described below:
We engage trusted third-party vendors who help us operate 313 Muslim — including cloud hosting providers, email delivery services, and analytics platforms. These providers process data strictly on our behalf, under confidentiality agreements, and are not permitted to use your data for any other purpose.
Posts, comments, and profile information you set as public are visible to other users and may be indexed by search engines. You control the visibility of your content through your privacy settings. Private accounts restrict this visibility to approved followers only.
We may disclose information if required by law, court order, or governmental authority, or when we believe disclosure is necessary to protect the rights, property, or safety of 313 Muslim, our users, or the public.
In the event of a merger, acquisition, or sale of all or substantially all of our assets, your data may be transferred as part of that transaction. We will notify you via email or prominent in-app notice before your information becomes subject to a different privacy policy.
We may share your information for purposes not covered above if you give us explicit consent to do so. You may withdraw this consent at any time.
We use cookies and similar technologies to keep you logged in, remember your preferences, and understand how 313 Muslim is used. Here is what we use and why:
| Type | Purpose | Duration |

Managing Cookies
You can control and delete cookies through your browser settings. Disabling essential cookies will prevent you from logging in and using core platform features. We do not use third-party advertising cookies or track you across other websites.
We implement industry-standard technical and organisational security measures to protect your personal information against unauthorised access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction.
Encryption in Transit
All communication between your browser and our servers is encrypted using TLS 1.3 (HTTPS). Direct messages are end-to-end encrypted.
Encryption at Rest
Sensitive data, including passwords, is encrypted or hashed before storage. We use bcrypt with a high work factor for password hashing.
Access Controls
Strict role-based access controls limit which team members can access user data. All internal data access is logged and audited.
Security Audits
We conduct regular security reviews and encourage responsible disclosure of vulnerabilities through our security contact channel.
Incident Response
We maintain a documented incident response plan. In the event of a data breach affecting your information, we will notify you within 72 hours.
Infrastructure
Our infrastructure is hosted on reputable cloud providers with SOC 2 compliance, automatic backups, and geographic redundancy.
Important: While we take every reasonable precaution to protect your data, no method of transmission over the internet or electronic storage is 100% secure. We encourage you to use a strong, unique password for your 313 Muslim account and to enable two-factor authentication when it becomes available.
