Privacy contact

Fahm is the project responsible for running this site and the data use described here. For privacy questions or requests to access, correct or delete data relating to you, email hello@fahm.digital. Start by describing the request; do not send identity documents, financial information or account secrets.

Browsing

You can read the guides without creating an account. The site does not request financial details or identity documents and has no mailing-list form or public comments. Do not send passwords, private keys or recovery phrases to Fahm.

Fonts load from the site’s own server. Usage analytics is optional; you can decline it and continue reading the site.

Logs and cookies

The server may record technical data such as IP address, requested page, time and browser type to operate and protect the site and diagnose faults. Security tools may log login attempts or unusual activity.

WordPress may use cookies when an administrator signs in. The search within the guide library runs in your browser, and we do not send what you type there to the analytics service.

We save your analytics choice on your device for 180 days, without adding a personal identifier to that choice record. If you accept, we set analytics cookies to expire after 60 days and do not automatically extend them with each visit. You can change your choice through “Privacy settings” in the site footer. Withdrawing consent stops subsequent measurement and removes the site’s analytics cookies; it does not automatically delete data already sent.

The site is hosted with DigitalOcean. The current web-server configuration rotates its logs daily and keeps fourteen rotated logs; copies may remain in backups or separate security logs. These logs are not used to build marketing profiles of readers.

Usage analytics

If you accept, we use Google Analytics 4 to measure page visits, movement between guides, scrolling, service-link visibility and clicks. Measurements include page language, device type, referral source and approximate location, such as country. Cookies help distinguish browsers and visits; these measurements do not mean that we know your identity.

We do not send site-search terms, financial details or account information to analytics. We remove query parameters and fragments after the # symbol from URLs sent for measurement. We do not use analytics for personalised advertising or link it to an advertising account.

Google receives technical connection data from your browser, including your IP address, and processes measurements on its infrastructure, potentially outside Oman. We set retention of detailed user and event data to two months, without extending it when new activity occurs. Aggregated reports may remain longer. Google’s policy explains how it uses data from sites that use its services.

Measurement does not begin before you accept, and browser settings or content blockers may also prevent it. The figures therefore do not represent every visitor. Seeing or clicking a service link does not establish that someone created an account, deposited money or completed a purchase.

When you email us

We receive your email address, message contents and any attachments you send, and use them to respond or investigate a correction. Contact mail passes through Namecheap’s forwarding service to a Gmail inbox hosted by Google; using the Fahm address does not mean messages stay on the website server.

Hosting and email providers may process data outside Oman. We retain correspondence as needed to respond, follow up the issue and meet applicable legal obligations. You can request deletion of information we no longer need to keep; copies may persist for a period in backups. We do not sell correspondence or add senders to a marketing list.

External websites

When you follow a link to another website, that website’s policy applies to your visit. If you accept usage analytics, we may measure your click on a service link within Fahm, but this does not tell us what you do after reaching the other website.

The current links are not paid referral links. If referral links are added later, an updated policy will explain associated tracking and conditions before they are activated.
