privacy policy

Last Updated: August 2026

At AFZAL POINT, we respect your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and the choices you have.

Information We Collect

Automatically Collected Information
Like most websites, we automatically collect certain technical information when you visit — including your IP address, browser type, device type, pages visited, and approximate location (derived from IP), primarily for analytics and to keep the site running securely.

Location Data (Optional)
If you use our “Find metro near me” feature, your browser will ask permission to share your precise location. This is used only to suggest the nearest metro network and is never stored on our servers or shared with third parties. You can decline this permission and still use the rest of the site normally.

Search Terms
Station and route searches you type are processed to show you results. We do not link these searches to your identity.

Push Notification Subscriptions (Optional)
If you choose to enable push notifications for a specific metro network, your browser generates a subscription token, which we store solely to deliver service-update notifications for that network. You can unsubscribe at any time through your browser settings, and we automatically remove subscriptions that are no longer valid.

Feedback Submissions (Optional)
If you use the feedback feature to report an issue or suggest an improvement, we collect the comment you submit along with the page or route it relates to. This feature does not require your name or email address, and submissions are not linked to your identity.

Cookies & Local Storage

We use minimal cookies and browser local storage for:

• Remembering your dark/light mode preference
• Remembering whether you’ve dismissed the install/notification prompt
• Basic site functionality and security
• Google Analytics tracking cookies (if you have not opted out)

We do not use cookies for cross-site advertising tracking.

Third-Party Services

Some content on this site is served by trusted third parties, each with their own privacy practices:

• Google Fonts — for typography
• Tailwind CSS (via CDN) — for styling
• Google Analytics — to understand how visitors use our site (pages viewed, time spent, general location, device type). Google Analytics uses cookies for this purpose. You can opt out using the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on or by adjusting your cookie preferences.
• Standard WordPress infrastructure and security plugins

We encourage you to review these providers’ own privacy policies for details on their data practices.

How We Use Your Information

We use collected information to operate and improve the site, respond to enquiries, send push notifications you’ve opted into, and maintain the security and reliability of the platform. We do not sell your personal information to third parties.

Data Security

We take reasonable technical measures to protect the information we hold. However, no method of transmission over the internet is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

Children’s Privacy

This site is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children.

Your Choices

You can clear cookies/local storage anytime through your browser settings, deny location access, opt out of analytics tracking, and unsubscribe from push notifications at any time — none of these affect your ability to use the core route-finding features of this site.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Continued use of the site after changes are posted constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
