This Privacy Policy describes how the "Prayer Times - Islamic Companion" mobile application ("the App") handles your information. Your privacy is important to us.
The App is designed with your privacy in mind. We collect minimal information directly from your device, and we want to be transparent about what that is:
Location Data: The App uses your device's location services (GPS or network-based) to determine your precise geographical coordinates. This information is solely used for the purpose of:
Calculating accurate prayer times for your current location.
Determining the correct Qibla (direction to Mecca).
Providing relevant local Islamic content, such as nearby mosque information (if applicable in a future update).
The information collected by the App is used exclusively for the following purposes:
Core Functionality: Your location data is essential for the App to function as intended, providing you with personalized and accurate prayer times and Qibla direction.
On-Device Processing: All prayer time calculations and Qibla determinations are performed locally on your device. Your location data is not transmitted to our servers or any third parties for these calculations.
Local Storage: All data, including your location information, is stored locally on your device. We do not store your personal information on our servers.
No Personal Accounts: The App does not require you to create an account or provide any personal identifiers such as your name, email address, or phone number.
Data Security: While no method of transmission over the internet or method of electronic storage is 100% secure, we strive to use commercially acceptable means to protect your information stored on your device.
We do not share, sell, rent, or trade your personal information with any third parties. Your location data remains on your device and is not shared with us or any external entities.
The App does not integrate with any third-party analytics services or advertising networks that collect your personal data.
Location Services: You can enable or disable location services for the App at any time through your device's settings. Please note that disabling location services will prevent the App from accurately calculating prayer times for your current location and determining the Qibla direction. You may still be able to manually select a city for prayer times.
Data Deletion: Since all data is stored locally on your device, deleting the App from your device will remove all stored information.
The App is designed for a general audience and is not specifically directed at children under the age of 13. Given that we do not collect personal identifying information, we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13.
We may update our Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of any changes by posting the new Privacy Policy within the App or on our website. You are advised to review this Privacy Policy periodically for any changes.
