The Facebook pixel is a small piece of JavaScript code that provides a number of functions for the sending of application-specific events and user-defined data to Facebook. We use the pixel in order to record information concerning the way in which visitors use our website.
The pixel records and provides Facebook with information concerning the browser setting of the user, a hashed version of the Facebook ID (a string of numbers that doesn’t personally identify individuals but does connect to a user’s Facebook profile),and the URL which is being visited.
Each Facebook user possesses a clear and device-independent Facebook ID, meaning it’s possible to recognise the user on the social network and their interactions with the Supporting Sunni Scholars website. It’s then possible to retarget website visitors for advertising purposes by means of Facebook adverts. For example, the pixel allows Supporting Sunni Scholars to serve Facebook advertising to all users who have visited a specific page on its website during a set time period of up to 180 days. After 180 days, the user information is deleted.
If the visitor accesses our website again after this period, user information will reset and be collected as stated above (browser setting, hashed version of Facebook ID, and URL being visited). No personal information is disclosed to the Supporting Sunni Scholars in relation to individual website visitors.

Donations made on our website are secure to the fullest extent possible. SSL protects information as it is transferred through the Internet. This method is the industry-standard security protocol, which makes it extremely difficult for anyone else to intercept the credit card information you send to us.
Companies we work with to process credit card transactions also use high-grade encryption and security protocols. You can recognise secure website pages by checking for the secure symbol at the bottom of your browser screen. For most browsers, this symbol is either a lock or a key. When the lock symbol appears to be locked, the page is secure. When it appears to be unlocked, the page is insecure.
