Privacy policy

How the CSMJC Kabrastan protects the privacy of the deceased and their families.

What visitors can find. Only entries that the office has checked and approved for publication can be found. A search from outside the Kabrastan needs the full name of the deceased and their Jamat, and shows only the name and the zone. The grave number, dates and the map are shown only at the Kabrastan, after scanning one of the QR signs there.

Why. A burial register holds personal and family information. Limiting what can be seen from afar stops anyone from browsing the register or collecting information about the deceased, while families can still find their loved ones when they visit.

Families' choices. A family may ask for an entry to be hidden from public search, or for a correction, using the Contact the office form. The office will confirm the request with the family before acting on it.

What we keep. Searches are limited in number to prevent misuse. The site does not ask visitors for their names to search. A visitor's phone location is used only on the phone to show the walking path, and is not stored by the site.

Office records. The full register is kept by the office. Only authorised staff can see it, every change is recorded, and staff accounts are protected by a second sign-in step.

Questions. Please contact the CSMJC office.
