Anonymous Device Identifier

When you first launch the App, a cryptographically random device ID is generated and stored locally on your device. This ID contains no personal information and is used solely to authenticate API requests for content delivery.

Tracker & Journal Data

Prayer logs, Quran reading records, Azkar completions, habit tracking, personal journal entries, and Islamic goals are cached locally on your device for offline access, and also synced to our servers under your anonymous device ID — this is what lets your progress survive a reinstall or carry over if you get a new device. This data is linked only to your device ID, never to your name, email, or any other identity, and is never sold, shared with advertisers, or used for profiling.

Google Account Information (Community — opt-in only)

If you choose to join Community, you sign in with Google and we receive your name, email address, and profile photo from Google to create your Community identity. This upgrades your existing anonymous device account in place — your tracker/favorites history is preserved, not replaced — rather than creating a second, separate account. We verify your Google sign-in token directly against Google's own servers; we never see or store your Google password.

Community Content You Post

Posts, photos, comments, and replies you create in Community are visible to other Community members and are stored on our servers, linked to your Google-linked identity (your name and photo, as above). Likes, shares, and reports you make are recorded the same way. Photos you upload are automatically resized into optimized copies for display, and all metadata embedded in the original file — including GPS/location tags your camera may have recorded — is stripped before the photo is ever stored or shown to anyone.

Connections & Blocking

Friend/connection requests you send or receive, and any account you choose to block, are recorded against your Community identity so the App can show the right relationship state and keep blocked accounts from seeing each other's content.

Community Country Preference

Community asks which country's community you'd like to see content from. This is a preference you choose yourself and is never changed automatically — not by travel, a VPN, or a new IP address. The only automated step is a one-time, best-effort suggestion shown when you first open the picker, computed from your IP address at that moment and never stored; you can ignore it and pick any country, and you can change your choice anytime in Settings. This is unrelated to the GPS-based Prayer Times location described below and never uses your device's GPS.

Firebase Analytics (anonymous)

The App uses Firebase Analytics to collect anonymised usage events — such as screen views, dua opened, favourite added/removed, tasbeeh sessions, folder creation, quote views, and Islamic tools usage (Hijri Calendar, Quiz, Seerah Timeline, Dream Guide, Islamic Finance). No personally identifiable information is included in these events. Google processes this data under its Privacy Policy at policies.google.com/privacy.

Firebase Crashlytics (release builds only)

In production (release) builds the App collects crash reports via Firebase Crashlytics. Reports include device model, OS version, app version, and stack traces at the time of a crash. No personal data or user content is included. Crash collection is disabled in debug builds.

Firebase Remote Config

Firebase Remote Config allows us to update certain app settings server-side (e.g. feature flags) without a full release. It does not collect or transmit any personal data.

Location Data (Prayer Times & Related Islamic Features)

The App never requests your device's location automatically. Location permission is requested only after you explicitly choose to use a location-based feature — for example, turning on "Auto-detect location" in Prayer Settings, or tapping "Detect Location" — to calculate accurate Islamic prayer times (Fajr, Dhuhr, Asr, Maghrib, Isha) for your current position. Location is used only for determining prayer times and related Islamic features, and is never used for advertising, tracking, analytics profiling, or marketing purposes. Prayer time calculation itself happens entirely on your device using the open-source Adhan library, and your precise location is not stored on our servers.

To show a readable city/country name instead of raw coordinates, the App may use your device's built-in location services (Android's system Geocoder) to reverse-geocode your coordinates into a place name. Depending on your device, this lookup can involve your coordinates being processed by your device manufacturer's or Google's location services under their own privacy policies — it happens through your device's operating system, not through our servers. If you decline the permission, the App continues to work fully by letting you set your city manually — no location access is required to use prayer times or any other feature.

This is separate from Community's country preference described below — that's a country you pick from a list, never your device's GPS.
