§ 01Terms of use

Using this site.

By accessing nabeelkhan.com (the "site") you agree to these terms. If you do not agree, please do not use the site. These terms may be updated from time to time; continued use after a change constitutes acceptance of the revised terms.

The site is provided for informational and professional reference. You may read, link to, and quote it with attribution. You may not republish substantial portions, scrape it at scale, or present its content as your own.

§ 02Content & intellectual property

Words, frameworks, and trademarks.

Unless stated otherwise, all essays, book material, diagrams, named frameworks (including the MESA Framework, the Five-Gate Deployment Model, and related models), and design on this site are © Dr. Nabeel A. Khan and are protected by copyright.

Book titles, publisher names, and third-party standards (ISO, SOC 2, NIST, AAOIFI, and the named regulators) are referenced for identification and belong to their respective owners.

§ 03Professional disclaimer

Guidance, not advice.

Content on this site, including frameworks, the self-assessment, and book material, is general guidance drawn from professional practice. It is not legal, regulatory, financial, Sharia, or compliance advice, and it does not create an advisory or client relationship.

Regulatory obligations vary by jurisdiction and institution. Before acting, obtain advice from qualified counsel and your relevant supervisory authority. The author accepts no responsibility for decisions made solely on the basis of published material.

Formal advisory engagements are governed by a separate written agreement, not by these terms.

§ 05Warranty & liability

The fine print.

The site is provided "as is," without warranties of any kind, express or implied. While the author strives for accuracy, no guarantee is made that content is current, complete, or error-free.

To the fullest extent permitted by law, the author shall not be liable for any direct, indirect, incidental, or consequential loss arising from use of, or reliance on, this site. Nothing here limits liability that cannot be limited under applicable law.

§ 06Privacy & cookies

What this site collects.

This site is built to be light and privacy-respecting. It does not ask you to create an account, and it does not sell or share personal data.

Analytics. The site uses Google Analytics 4 to understand which pages are read, in aggregate. This is loaded under Consent Mode: analytics storage stays denied by default and only activates if you choose "Accept" on the cookie banner.

Your choices. Your consent decision is stored locally in your browser. To change it, clear this site's storage and reload, then choose again on the banner. You can also block analytics with browser settings or an extension.

Forms. If you send a message or book a slot, the details you provide are used only to respond to you. They are not added to a marketing list.
