Privacy

We collect almost nothing. Here's the full list.

HalalProof is a free site with no accounts. This page lists everything it collects, why, and how to have it removed — in plain language, because on a site about trust, the privacy policy is part of the product.

  1. Product requestsThe product name you type, and your email only if you choose to give it. Stored in our database so we know which products to verify next — and, if you left an email, so we can tell you when the verdict is published.
  2. Restaurant waitlistYour email and suburb. The suburb tells us where to launch the halal restaurant directory first; the email is how we tell you when it opens. Joining twice stores nothing new.
  3. Anonymous usage analyticsCookieless analytics via PostHog (hosted in the US). No advertising cookies, no cross-site tracking, no session recording — page views plus a few named events, like a search that found nothing (we keep the search text so real demand drives what we verify next). A random identifier sits in your browser's localStorage, not in a cookie.
  4. Abuse preventionThe two forms are rate-limited per network address, but the address is stored only as a truncated one-way hash and deleted within a day. We never store raw IP addresses.
  • No ads on verdict pages, everA sponsor can never buy or influence a verdict.
  • No accountsYou never sign up or log in to read anything on this site.
  • No sale or sharing of your dataYour details go to nobody beyond the services that run the site: Netlify (hosting), Neon (database, Sydney), and PostHog (analytics, US). None of them may use your data for anything but running HalalProof.

Want your email or anything else deleted? Write to hello@halalproof.com.au and we'll remove it. No forms, no questions.

Verdicts are research aids based on the cited evidence at the stated date — recipes and certifications change, so always check the pack. How we verify, and how corrections work, is on the methodology page.
