Privacy Policy

Last updated: 30 September 2026

Being1 (“we,” “us,” or “our”) respects your privacy. This policy explains how we collect, use, store and protect information submitted through being1.org.

The organisation responsible for this information is BeingOne Foundation. For privacy questions, contact info@being1.org.

Information We Collect

When you complete our registration form, we collect:

  • Firqa Name

  • Father Name

  • Phone number

  • CNIC number

  • Address

  • District

  • One uploaded photograph or selfie

We also record the submission date, a reference number and your acceptance of the form’s privacy notice.

Your photograph is collected only when you choose an image or use the camera option. Camera access requires your permission. The form does not record audio.

Why We Collect Your Information

We use your information to review and process your registration, contact you about your submission.

We request your CNIC and photograph for registeration Purposes. Providing them does not mean your identity has been verified against NADRA or another government database.

We do not use the form’s photograph for automated facial recognition or biometric matching.

Where Your Information Is Stored

Registration details are stored in our WordPress database hosted by Hostinger. The form details are encrypted within that database.

Photographs are stored separately in a private Amazon Web Services (AWS) S3 bucket in the Ohio, United States, region. Uploaded images are converted to JPEG and may be resized before storage.

Authorised website administrators can review submissions and access their associated photographs through the WordPress dashboard.

Service Providers and International Processing

We use Hostinger for website hosting, AWS for photograph storage, and Cloudflare Turnstile to help prevent automated or abusive submissions.

Cloudflare Turnstile processes technical information, such as IP addresses and browser or device signals, to perform its security checks. Further information is available in the Cloudflare Privacy Policy.

These services may process information outside Pakistan or your country of residence. In particular, photographs submitted through this form are stored in the United States.

Who Can Access Your Information

Access is limited to authorised administrators and service providers who need it to operate and support the registration system.

We do not make your CNIC, address, phone number or photograph publicly available through the registration form. We do not sell your registration information.

We may disclose information where required by applicable law or where necessary to investigate misuse, protect the service or respond to a lawful request.

Security

We use HTTPS, encrypted storage for form details, private photograph storage and restricted administrative access to help protect submissions.

Photograph access links are temporary. Anyone who receives one of these links may be able to access the photograph until it expires, so these links should not be shared.

No online service can guarantee absolute security.

Your Choices and Requests

You may contact us to request access to your submission, correct inaccurate information, request deletion, or withdraw your consent to further use of your information.

Send requests to info@being1.org, quoting your submission reference where possible. Please do not send your full CNIC number or photograph in your initial email.

We may need to confirm your identity before acting on a request. Some information may need to be retained where required by applicable law. If information necessary to administer your registration is deleted, we may be unable to continue processing it.

Submitting Information About Others

Please submit only information you are authorised to provide. If you complete the form on someone else’s behalf, ensure they understand how their information will be used and that you have appropriate authority to submit it.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this policy when our registration process or information-handling practices change. The latest version will be published on this page with its updated date.
