1. Who we are and what this covers
Ummah Deen provides prayer times, Quran and Hadith reading, Qibla and Hijri calendar tools, ibadah tracking, bookmarks, and related features through our website and apps. This policy applies to those services. It does not cover third-party websites, app stores, or services that have their own privacy policies.
2. Information you provide
You can use core prayer-time and reading features without creating an account. If you create or use an account, we handle information needed to provide it, such as your email address and authentication credentials, along with information you choose to sync, such as settings, bookmarks, and ibadah tracking records.
3. Location and prayer calculations
You may choose a city manually, allow your browser or device to provide precise location, or use automatic approximate location where available. Precise location is requested only through the relevant browser or device permission. The website may use your IP address to request an approximate city and country from a geolocation provider so it can suggest a location. That provider receives the IP address used for the lookup.
Prayer times are calculated on your device where possible. If the app uses the prayer-times service, it sends the selected coordinates, time-zone offset, calculation method, madhab, and requested date to our API service to return prayer times. The service may also receive ordinary connection information such as your IP address.
4. Information stored on your device
The website stores your chosen settings, including location choice, prayer calculation preferences, language, and theme, in your browser’s local storage. The app may also store settings, bookmarks, tracker entries, and reminder preferences locally, depending on the platform and features you use. These preferences are not sent to our account services unless you choose to sign in and sync them.
5. How we use information
We use information to provide and maintain features you request, calculate or display prayer times, save preferences, authenticate accounts, sync your selected data across devices, respond to support requests, protect the service, and meet legal obligations. We do not sell personal information or use it for third-party advertising.
6. Sharing and service providers
Information is shared only as needed to operate the service: with hosting and infrastructure providers, the approximate-location provider used for an IP lookup, and our API and account services when you use features that require them. We may also disclose information when required by law or when necessary to protect the rights, safety, and security of users or the service. We do not control the privacy practices of third-party providers.
7. Retention and security
Device-stored information remains until you clear it or uninstall the app. Account information and synced content are retained while needed to provide your account and services, unless a longer period is required by law. You can ask us to help with account-data deletion by contacting support. We use reasonable safeguards to protect information, but no method of storage or transmission is completely secure.
8. Your choices and rights
You can change location permissions in your browser or device settings, choose a city manually, clear browser storage, and choose whether to create an account or sync data. Depending on where you live, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, or restrict certain personal information. Contact us to make a request; we may need to verify your identity before responding.
9. Children’s privacy
Ummah Deen is a general audience service and is not designed to collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided us account information, contact us so we can review and address the request.
10. Changes to this policy
We may update this policy as the service changes. We will post the updated version on this page and revise the effective date above.
