Privacy Policy
Last updated: 7 July 2026
UmrahMarket ("we", "us") operates the website umrahmarket.co.uk. This policy explains what data we collect and how we use it. We are the data controller for the purposes of UK GDPR and the Data Protection Act 2018.
Who we are, and what we are not
UmrahMarket is a comparison platform. We do not sell Umrah packages, take bookings, or process payments. When you enquire about a package, you are taken to the travel agency's own website, which has its own privacy policy that will then apply.
Information we collect
Pilgrims (visitors). You do not need an account to use UmrahMarket. We do not ask visitors for names, emails or payment details.
When you click through to an agency, we log an anonymised record of that click — a one-way hashed form of your IP address, your browser type, and the referring page — so we can measure which packages are popular. This does not identify you personally.
Agencies. If you have an agency account, we store your name, email, a securely hashed password, and the package information you submit.
How we use it
To operate and improve the platform, show relevant packages, measure interest in listings, keep the service secure, and (for agencies) provide the dashboard. Our lawful bases are legitimate interests (running and improving the service) and, for agency accounts, performance of a contract.
Cookies
We use a single essential cookie to keep agency users signed in. We do not use advertising or cross-site tracking cookies. Because we only use strictly necessary cookies, no consent banner is required.
Who we share data with
We use trusted service providers to run UmrahMarket: Vercel (hosting), Neon (database), and Mapbox (maps). They process data only on our instructions. We never sell your data.
Data retention
Anonymised click logs are kept for analytics for up to 24 months. Agency account data is kept for as long as the account is active.
Your rights
Under UK GDPR you have the right to access, correct, or erase your personal data, to object to or restrict processing, and to data portability. To exercise any of these, email us at the address below. You may also complain to the Information Commissioner's Office (ico.org.uk).
