These are the companies that personal information reaches when you use The Maktab App, what each of them does, and where they process it. Nothing goes anywhere else.
We keep this page current. If we add a company to this list, or change what one of them does, we will tell the Maktabs using the platform.
Some services are ones a Maktab connects itself, such as its own email provider or file storage. They are listed in their own group at the end. They are the Maktab's suppliers, not ours.
