Last updated: 21 July 2026

This Privacy Policy explains how AchaWaqat (“we”, “our” or “us”) collects, uses, stores and protects information about visitors to achawaqat.com. AchaWaqat is founded and maintained by Dr. Taimoor Asghar, a medical doctor, researcher and data scientist.

1. Information we collect

We collect only the information needed to operate and improve the site:

  • Usage data: pages visited, time on page, device type, browser and approximate location (city/country level), collected through cookies and analytics.
  • Contact details: name, email address and message content when you use the contact form or correction report form.
  • Advertising data: Google AdSense may collect data to show relevant ads and measure ad performance.

2. How we use your information

  • To keep the website running securely and efficiently.
  • To understand which calculators, research tools and articles are most useful so we can prioritise improvements.
  • To display advertisements that support the free tools on the site.
  • To respond to your messages, correction reports and partnership enquiries.

3. Cookies and similar technologies

We use cookies to remember your cookie consent choice, measure traffic and support advertising. You can manage or delete cookies through your browser settings or update your consent at any time using the “Cookie settings” link in the footer. For more detail, see our Cookie Policy.

4. Advertising and third-party services

We partner with Google AdSense to display ads. Google may use cookies and similar technologies to personalise ads based on your visits to this and other sites. Personalised advertising is only enabled after you consent. You can opt out of personalised ads through Google Ads Settings.

We may also use analytics and hosting services that process limited usage data on our behalf. These providers are contractually bound to use data only for the services they provide to us.

5. Data retention and security

Contact form submissions and correction reports are retained only as long as necessary to respond and resolve the issue. Analytics and advertising data are retained according to the policies of the respective service providers. We use industry-standard security measures to protect data, but no online transmission can be guaranteed completely secure.
