1. Overview
This Privacy Policy explains how the Minar-e-Pakistan visitor guide (the “Site”) handles information when you visit it. The Site is an independent, non-commercial information resource about Minar-e-Pakistan in Lahore, Pakistan. It is not affiliated with any government body.
We aim to collect as little personal information as possible. This page describes what is collected automatically, why, and the choices you have.
2. Information we collect
We do not require you to create an account or submit personal details to use the Site. The information we handle falls into two categories:
- Automatically collected data: Like most websites, we use privacy-respecting analytics that record aggregated, non-identifying data such as pages visited, approximate region (derived from IP), device type, referring site and general usage trends. This helps us understand which guides are useful.
- Information you send us: If you contact us by email or a contact form, we receive the information you choose to share (such as your name and message). We use it only to reply.
3. Cookies and similar technologies
The Site uses a small number of cookies. Some are required for basic functionality; others help us measure traffic. You can control or delete cookies through your browser settings at any time.
For details, see our Cookie Settings.
4. How we use information
We use the limited data we collect to:
- Operate, maintain and improve the Site and its guides.
- Understand aggregate usage so we can prioritise content that travellers need.
- Respond to messages you send us.
We do not sell personal information, and we do not share it with third parties for their own marketing.
5. Third-party services
The Site may load content from third parties, including map embeds (Google Maps) and analytics. These services may set their own cookies or collect data under their own privacy policies. Embedded map data is subject to Google’s terms and policies. We are not responsible for the data practices of those third parties.
6. Data security
We take reasonable measures to protect the limited information we handle. However, no method of transmission over the internet is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
7. Your rights and choices
Depending on your location, you may have rights to access, correct or delete personal data we hold, and to object to or restrict certain processing. To exercise these rights or to ask a question, contact us via the details in the footer or the contact information published on the Site.
You can also limit tracking by adjusting your browser’s cookie and do-not-track settings, or by installing privacy extensions.
8. Changes to this policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The “Last updated” date at the top reflects the latest revision. Continued use of the Site after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
