FMB Plano
Privacy policy
Effective November 9, 2026
This policy describes how FMB Plano, for Faiz ul Mawaid il Burhaniyah in Plano, handles information in the FMB Plano app and on fmbplano.com. The app and the member website use the same member account.
Information we collect
We collect only what the jamaat needs to run thaali and miqaat for members:
- Name and title on the member account.
- ITS number, used to sign in. It is an 8-digit member identifier.
- Email address on the member account.
- Password. The app sends it only to sign in and does not keep it on the phone afterward. The server stores it in a form that cannot be read back.
- A sign-in token on the phone until the member signs out.
- Zone, usual portion, rice, roti, freeze when the member is eligible, and whether signup is automatic or manual.
- Thaali signup for each day, and miqaat counts of adults and children entered by the member.
- Dish ratings and optional comments for meals the member signed up for.
- A push token and whether the phone is an iPhone or an Android phone, if the member allows notifications.
We do not collect contacts, photos, location, or an advertising identifier. Child counts for a miqaat are numbers the member enters. They are not separate accounts for children.
How we use it
We use this information to:
- Sign the member in and show the right zone and usual thaali.
- Record thaali and miqaat signup, including days the member turns off.
- Show dish ratings to the team that prepares the menu.
- Send the reminders described below, and one email receipt after the member saves a week in the app.
- Run the member website, including staff tools for people with those roles.
Notifications and email
If the member allows notifications, the phone registers a push token with FMB Plano. We use it for three reminders: when the menu is published, on Friday morning if that member has not signed up, and after a thaali the member signed up for. Opening a reminder goes to Registration or Reviews. Apple or Google delivers the notification. We do not use the token for advertising.
After a successful Save in the app, we email one receipt to the member’s own email address. That message is sent through Amazon Simple Email Service. A save that does not change anything does not send a new email. The member website does not send this receipt.
Sharing
Member information stays with FMB Plano and the people who operate thaali for this jamaat. We do not sell it. We do not share it with advertisers or data brokers. We do not track members across other companies’ apps or websites.
Service providers handle a message only so it can be delivered: Amazon Simple Email Service for the signup receipt, Apple for iPhone notifications, and Google Firebase for Android notifications. They receive the address or token needed for that delivery, not the member’s signup history for their own use.
How long we keep it
We keep the member account, signup, and ratings while the person is a member and for as long as the jamaat needs those records to run thaali. Signing out removes the sign-in token from that phone. A member can ask the FMB Plano team to correct account details.
Security
The app and the website talk to the server over HTTPS. Access to staff tools is limited to members who have those roles.
Children
The app is for members of the jamaat. It is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly create accounts for them.
Changes
If this policy changes, we will post the new version at this address and update the effective date. Continued use of the app or the website after that date means the new version applies.
Contact
Questions about this policy or about a member account go to the FMB Plano team through the jamaat’s usual member contact. The member website is https://fmbplano.com.
