This Privacy Policy explains what information may be collected when you visit this website, read its content, leave a comment, contact Muhammad Shakeel directly, or interact with WordPress features on the site. It also explains how that information may be used and what rights you may have in relation to your personal data.
Who we are
This website is operated by Muhammad Shakeel. If you have privacy-related questions, you can contact: shakeel@muhammadshakeel.com.
What personal data we collect and why
Comments
If comments are enabled on the site and you leave a comment, WordPress may collect the data shown in the comment form, along with your IP address and browser user agent string to help with spam detection.
An anonymized string created from your email address, also called a hash, may be provided to the Gravatar service to see if you are using it. The Gravatar privacy policy is available at automattic.com/privacy. After approval of your comment, your profile picture may be visible publicly alongside your comment.
Contacting us by email
If you contact Muhammad Shakeel directly by email, the information you choose to send may include your name, email address, website details, project information, and the contents of your message. This information is used only to review your inquiry, reply to you, and continue any conversation you request.
Technical and server information
Like most websites, basic technical information may be recorded automatically by the hosting environment and server logs. This may include your IP address, browser type, referring URL, requested pages, and the date and time of your visit. This information is typically used for site security, troubleshooting, maintenance, and abuse prevention.
Media
If you upload images to the website, you should avoid uploading images with embedded location data such as EXIF GPS. Visitors to the website may be able to download and extract location data from images published on the site.
Cookies and local storage
This website may use standard WordPress cookies and similar browser storage features for core site functionality.
- If comments are enabled and you leave a comment, you may opt in to saving your name, email address, and website in cookies for convenience.
- If you visit the login page, WordPress may set a temporary cookie to check whether your browser accepts cookies.
- If you log in, WordPress may set cookies to save your login information and screen preferences.
- If you edit or publish content, WordPress may save a cookie containing the post ID of the article you edited.
- This site also stores your light or dark theme preference in your browser’s local storage so your preferred display mode can be remembered.
Embedded content from other websites
Articles or pages on this site may include embedded content such as videos, images, posts, or other media. Embedded content from other websites behaves in the same way as if you visited that other website directly.
Those third-party websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional tracking, and monitor your interaction with that content. If you are logged in to a third-party service, that service may also associate the interaction with your account there.
Who we share your data with
Your personal data is not sold or rented. Information may be shared only when necessary to operate the website, respond to your request, detect spam, maintain site security, or comply with legal obligations.
- If you request a password reset, your IP address may be included in the reset email as part of standard WordPress behavior.
- If comments are enabled, visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service.
- If you send an email inquiry, your message may be processed by normal email providers and hosting services used to receive and store that communication.
How long we retain your data
- If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata may be retained indefinitely so follow-up comments can be recognized and approved automatically.
- If you contact Muhammad Shakeel by email, your message may be retained as long as needed to respond, follow up, maintain project history, or keep business records.
- If the site has registered users, the personal information they provide in their profile may be stored until it is edited or removed, subject to legal or administrative requirements.
- Technical logs may be retained for a limited period for security, maintenance, and diagnostic purposes.
What rights you have over your data
Depending on your location and applicable privacy laws, you may have the right to request access to the personal data held about you, request correction of inaccurate information, request deletion where appropriate, or object to certain processing.
If you have an account on this site, or have left comments, you may request an exported file of the personal data held about you. You may also request that personal data be erased, except where data must be kept for administrative, legal, security, or record-keeping reasons.
To make a privacy-related request, contact shakeel@muhammadshakeel.com.
Where your data is sent
Depending on how you use the site, data may be processed by the website hosting environment, email providers, and automated spam detection tools. If a third-party service is used to deliver embedded content, that service may also process data according to its own privacy practices.

This Privacy Policy may be updated from time to time to reflect changes to the website, site functionality, legal requirements, or business practices. The latest version will always be published on this page with the updated revision date.
