How do we protect your information?

We implement a variety of security measures to maintain the safety of your personal information when you enter, submit, or access your personal information.

We offer the use of a secure server. All supplied sensitive/credit information is transmitted via Secure Socket Layer (SSL) technology and then encrypted into our Database to be only accessed by those authorized with special access rights to our systems, and are required to keep the information confidential.

After a transaction, your private information (name, e-mail address, mailing address, phone number, account number … etc.) will not be kept on the website’s database for more than thirty (30) days. It will be then downloaded to a private location at the bank’s premises for safe keeping and future reference.

Internet Transmission

The security of e-mail messages cannot be guaranteed and Quds Bank will not be responsible for damages incurred by users by sending an online message to us or if we send a message to them upon their request. Therefore, we take no responsibility for any damages caused by using this Website. We will also not bear any responsibility or liability for the internet interruptions, blackouts and delayed or incorrect data transmissions due to internet malfunction which may affect the timely and accurate performance of the Website.

In case the bank outsources any processes we (the bank) ensure the supplier(s) has appropriate security measures in place and will contractually require them to comply with these Privacy Principles.

Information Security

We maintain strict security standards and procedures in order to prevent unauthorized access to your data by protecting your account and information with a password that you set and using technologies such as firewalls and server authentication.

Cookies

Our public website and Internet Banking services, like most other websites, use cookies. Cookies are small information data files that a website uses on your computer and get transferred into your computer hard disk when you visit our site. These enable a smooth navigation for the users and do not pose any threat to the security of information available on your computer and do not in any way compromise the security of Internet Banking.

These pieces of information are used to improve our services for you by, for example:

  • enabling the site to recognize your device so you don't have to give the same information several times during one task
  • recognizing that you may already have given a username and password so you don't need to do it for every web page requested
  • measuring how many people are using our sites, so they can be made easier to use and there's enough capacity to ensure they are fast

Cookies cannot look into your computer and obtain information about you or your family or read any material kept on your hard drive and, unless you have logged onto Internet Banking, cookies cannot be used to identify who you are.

We use two types of cookies:

Session Cookies: Session cookies are temporary and should be deleted automatically by your browser when you quit. Session cookies are used to help you navigate our website efficiently and perform certain functions.

Persistent Cookies: Persistent cookies can remain on your hard drive indefinitely (how long will depend on the lifetime of the specific cookie) and may continue to be accessed via your browser.

Generally, web browsers are set to Accept Cookies by default. Still, you can set your browser to refuse cookies or warn you before accepting them. However, some parts of this website may not function properly without accepting cookies.

Do we disclose any information to outside parties?

We do not sell, trade, or otherwise transfer to outside parties your Personally Identifiable Information. This does not include trusted third parties who assist us in operating our website, conducting our business, or servicing you, so long as those parties agree to keep this information confidential. We may also release your information when we believe release is appropriate to comply with the law, enforce our site policies, or protect ours or others rights, property, or safety.

Third party links

Occasionally, at our discretion, we may include or offer third party products or services on our website. These third party sites have separate and independent privacy policies. We therefore have no responsibility or liability for the content and activities of these linked sites. Nonetheless, we seek to protect the integrity of our site and welcome any feedback about these sites.
