TERMS OF USE

PLEASE READ THESE TERMS OF USE CAREFULLY BEFORE USING THIS WEBSITE. By using this website, you signify your consent to these terms of use. If you do not agree to these Terms of Use, please do not use the website.

1. Our Sunnah Match© service is run by Muslims who try to adhere to the Sunnah. Accordingly, using the resources of the Sunnah Match© service, you shall simply try to find yourself appropriate matches, and for some candidates, we will help to find an appropriate marriage candidate, but there are no guarantees of a response or a match.
2. After you've processed your payment please allow up to 24 hours for the marriage form to be sent to you to process your application further. We can only email you once we have received confirmation of payment, so please kindly allow this time for us to administrate. In the early period after we open up registration, our inbox floods rapidly, so replies to emails may be delayed past the 24-hour mark.
   
   
3. Our Sunnah Match service simply consists of a detailed database with candidate information. We may try to match you with a candidate whom deem are appropriate for you as a potential spouse, however there are no guarantees of any results or responses to you at all. We will not be held responsible for you missing out on any candidates due to their own unresponsiveness, due to you prioritising one candidate over another, or for any other reason. Candidates may ask for contact with up to three active/available profiles per calendar month. Active/available profiles are those which are currently registered as active on our internal system, and are available for another candidate to request contact with - this may not be the case if a Sister is in consideration with a Brother. If candidates have requested more than this, they will have to wait until the next month before requesting contact with any profiles again. If they have not yet received a response from us, we will endeavour to email them with something along the lines of this as soon as we can, however repeated emails are likely to be ignored if the candidate has passed their limit for the month.
   
   
4. Every candidate signing up for the Regular Profile must pay the £14.99 monthly fee to sign up to the Sunnah Match©️ service. If you have already signed up for the Regular Profile but would like to be part of our upgraded Premium Profile service, you must pay the additional fee. This fee must be paid before candidates receive the marriage profile form link, it is a fee for our administrative and matching services; forms and system management, email management, updates, and all of our related costs. We use PayPal so your payment is secure and trusted. Anyone can pay so long as they have a credit/debit card or PayPal account available. We do not take any cash or cheque payments, they are only taken online. Sunnah Match©️ reserves the right to introduce a new and updated payment plan, at an increase or decrease, at any time it wishes. Such an updated payment plan will not affect existing memberships, except after 3 months, and will be applicable immediately to all new candidates which sign up at that updated price.
   
   
5. If candidates do not submit the form for any reason, whether due to human choice, human error, technical problem, an act of nature, or anything else, we are not obliged to offer any refund of the fee once it has been received. The discretion to refund lies solely with Sunnah Match, and we are not obliged to offer a refund in any scenario, especially those we deem unreasonable. If a candidate would like a refund for some fair personal reasons, they may email us at [email protected] to ask for a refund - we may typically take up to a week to reply and process your refund, so please do not repeatedly email us as this will push your email further down our email backlog.
   
   
6. Our Sunnah Match service simply consists of a detailed database with candidate information - we then try to match you with spouses which are appropriate for you, however there are no guarantees of any results or responses to you at all.
   
   Our service provides no guarantees of finding a spouse within a certain time period, whether it is a day, a month, or even a year; there is no guarantee that our Sunnah Match service will ever find you a spouse at all.
   
   
7. Our Sunnah Match service does not guarantee that we will ever help you get an Shar'an Nikah (Islamic Marriage), nor a legal registered marriage or any other kind of relationship, in any country or place in the world, we are hold no responsibility for your procedures in such matters.
   
   
8. Our Sunnah Match service does not guarantee that your relationship will last with anyone who you may find via the service, if your relationship breaks down or you divorce in any way, we will not be held liable.
   
   
9. If a candidate decides that they want their personal profile to be removed from the database, they must email us at [email protected] with a formal request, however there is no guarantee that the profile will be removed immediately, or at all.
   
   
10. Our privacy policy offers that candidate profile details are limited to use within the Sunnah Match service group, and the candidate profile will not be shared without prior agreement by the candidate.
    
    
11. There are no guarantees or warranties offered by Sunnah Match services. The law of England and Wales of the United Kingdom shall govern this contract.
    
    
12. If you have agreed to these terms then signed up and paid, we owe no refund to anyone who is unhappy or unsatisfied with the form or services. The form may include some mandatory questions which you are not comfortable with filling out - you can either fill them out or wait until a later time to fill them out, however we owe no refund to anyone who has paid but is not satisfied with any part of the form, or the complete form.
    
    
13. Please understand that this service is currently offered to citizens of the UK, US and Canada ONLY. This is a service for those people who work and reside within these countries or can move to these countries legally. This is not for those who are currently/permanently unable to move to these countries, unfortunately we cannot accept your profile. If you sign up despite not fitting these criteria, you will be issued with a refund and removed from our system. We have clearly stated that Sunnah Match is available for Muslims of the UK, US and Canada only - it is your duty to read them, before clicking "Agree" and making payment.
    
    
14. Any female candidate which signs up without an islamic legal guardian (typically her father), or cannot provide his details, or cannot provide a valid reason (according to the authentic shar'iah) as to why someone other than her father has been assigned for this role, will be refunded and removed from our database unless we deem otherwise. We ask female candidates to not sign up unless they have this arranged correctly, as unfortunately we cannot typically arrange for these scenarios - if they are unsure whether their scenario makes them eligible, or would like some help in arranging an islamic guardian, please email us at [email protected], and we may try to help.
    
    
15. Any abusive, aggressive or otherwise intolerable behaviour towards any of our administrators, whether on Instagram, Telegram or via our emails and other communications, can result in that candidate receiving a permanent ban from our services, with no refund.
