MahrGPT

Data Usage Policy

We collect Mahr data to solve a specific problem: the lack of transparency in marriage finances. Here is exactly how that data is processed and used.

1. Data Use & Anonymization

Every submission is used as a valuable data point. When you submit your Mahr, it enters a secure database where it is immediately detached from your identity (since we don't collect identity data in the first place).

We use individual submissions to calculate broader statistics and power our intelligence tools. For example, your data helps us find the average Mahr for a specific demographic, which empowers others to make informed decisions.

2. The "Mahr Mithl" Standard

In Islamic jurisprudence, Mahr Mithl refers to the "customary dower" of women of similar status. Our goal is to digitize this concept using real-world data.

  • We group data by key factors: Country, Education Level, Income, and Age.
  • We run statistical analysis (median, interquartile range) to find the "typical" range.
  • We exclude statistical outliers to prevent skewed results from influencing the standard.

3. Public Availability

The insights generated from your data (e.g., charts, averages, calculators) are made public to the community. This is done to maximize benefit—helping families avoid conflict and setting realistic expectations.

Individual submissions are public and will be accessible to researchers and the community through our Open Data initiative, but they are always fully anonymized. We never display names or contact information because we don't collect them.

4. Data Ownership & Restrictions

The aggregated data and "Mahr Mithl" benchmarks provided on MahrGPT are the intellectual property of the MahrGPT initiative.

  • No Scraping: Automated scraping, harvesting, or bulk export of our data is strictly prohibited to protect the integrity of our community's contributions.
  • No Commercial Use: You may not sell, license, or redistribute our data for commercial purposes.
  • Fair Use: You are welcome to cite our statistics for research, journalism, or personal discussions, provided you credit MahrGPT as the source.

Help us build a fairer future.
