Effective date: July 28, 2026. This Privacy Policy explains how Islamly (“Islamly,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) collects, uses, discloses, stores, and protects information when you use the Islamly mobile application, website, and related services (collectively, the “Services”). It also explains your choices and privacy rights. Using the Services does not by itself constitute consent to every type of processing; where consent is required, we request it separately.
Account and profile information. If you create or use an account, we may process your Firebase user ID, email address, authentication provider, display name, username, profile photo URL, and profile preferences. Authentication may be provided by email/password, Google, Apple, or an anonymous account.
Location and place information. With your permission, Islamly may access precise or approximate device location to calculate prayer times and Qibla direction, identify your city, show weather, and find nearby masjids or halal places. Search text, coordinates, and related requests may be sent to location, mapping, weather, or geocoding providers. You may deny or revoke location permission in device settings, but location-based features may be limited.
Worship, preference, and app-content data. The app may store settings, notification choices, bookmarks, favourites, reading goals and progress, tasbih counts, calendar reminders, and other feature state. Some data remains only on your device; account sync data is stored in your private cloud account when sync is available.
Sensitive features. Hayd reflections and Dayn records may contain sensitive religious, health-related, financial, family, or personal information that you choose to enter. Hayd data is designed for local storage. Dayn cloud backups are encrypted on the device before upload; the PIN-derived key is not sent to us. If you use Wakeel recovery, we process designated contacts, recovery requests, encrypted recovery material, and evidence documents needed to provide that feature.
User content and social features. We process information you submit for masjids, halal places, advertisements, Qur'an reading groups, Halqahs, leaderboards, friendships, and invitations. This can include names, usernames, descriptions, schedules, approximate or named locations, photos, completion activity, and membership. Content clearly presented as public or shared will be visible to the relevant audience. Halqah and reading-group cover images may be publicly accessible.
Communications and AI queries. If you contact us, advertise, or submit a recovery request, we process the information in the form, such as name, email, phone number, topic, message, and attachments. Text sent to Ask Islamly may be transmitted to our server and hosted AI provider to generate a response. Do not include confidential or unnecessary personal information in AI prompts.
Device and technical information. We and our service providers may process push-notification tokens, Firebase installation or app-attestation identifiers, device platform, IP address or a hashed form of it for abuse prevention, timestamps, network status, and basic request or security logs. The current app build does not include an advertising SDK and we do not sell personal information or use it for cross-app behavioural advertising.
We use information to provide and personalize app features; authenticate users; sync data; calculate prayer times and Qibla; provide nearby search, weather, content, reminders, widgets, and notifications; operate social, submission, recovery, support, advertising-request, and AI features; maintain security; prevent fraud, spam, and abuse; troubleshoot; comply with law; and enforce our terms. Where applicable, our legal bases include performing a contract with you, our legitimate interests in operating and securing the Services, consent (including device permissions), and compliance with legal obligations.
We disclose information only as needed to operate the Services, at your direction, or as required by law. Service providers may include Google Firebase and Google Cloud (authentication, database, storage, functions, app attestation, and messaging), Google and Apple (sign-in), Google Places/Maps, OpenWeather, Photon/Komoot geocoding, OpenAI (Ask Islamly responses), Resend (email delivery), and hosting or content-delivery providers. These providers process information under their own terms and privacy notices. We may also disclose information to protect users, investigate abuse, comply with legal process, or in connection with a merger, financing, or transfer of the Services, subject to appropriate safeguards. Public and group content is shared with the audience indicated in the app.
Depending on your device and the feature you choose, Islamly may request access to location; notifications; camera and photo library for attachments and exported images; biometrics to unlock private Dayn records; motion or compass sensors for Qibla-related functionality; alarms, wake lock, vibration, audio, and background or foreground services for prayer reminders and playback; and network access. Permissions can be changed in device settings. You can also manage in-app notification channels, choose whether to sign in, and decide what information or content to submit. Revoking permission does not affect processing already lawfully completed.
Information may be stored on your device and on infrastructure operated by our service providers. Firebase Authentication is operated from the United States, while other Firebase services may process data globally. We retain account and feature data while your account is active or as needed to provide the Services. Support, moderation, security, quota, transaction, and recovery records are retained only as reasonably necessary for their purpose, dispute resolution, safety, and legal obligations. Public content may remain until removed by you or us. Deleted information may persist temporarily in encrypted backups or provider systems before being erased under applicable retention schedules.
We use reasonable administrative and technical safeguards, including access controls, transport encryption, Firebase security rules, app attestation, and client-side encryption for Dayn backups. No system is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security. Keep your credentials and Dayn PIN confidential.
You may request access to, correction of, export of, restriction of, objection to, or deletion of your personal information, as applicable in your jurisdiction. You may also withdraw consent and complain to your local data-protection authority. To request account and associated-data deletion, email either address below with the subject “Islamly Account Deletion.” We may need to verify your identity. Some information may be retained where required by law, for security, or to establish or defend legal claims. Deleting the app does not by itself delete your cloud account or cloud data.
The Services are intended for a general audience and are not directed to children under 13, or the higher minimum age required for independent consent in their country. We do not knowingly collect personal information from a child who cannot legally consent without authorization from a parent or guardian. If you believe a child has provided such information, contact us so we can investigate and delete it where required.
Your information may be processed in countries other than where you live, including the United States, where privacy laws may differ. Where required, we rely on appropriate transfer mechanisms and contractual safeguards.
For questions, complaints, account deletion, or other privacy requests, contact Islamly at digitalpoolng@gmail.com or support@theislamly.com.
We may change policy terms in future for better user experience and security, notice will be posted. Changes to this privacy policy Islamly has the discretion to update this privacy policy at any time. When we do, we will revise the updated date at the bottom of this page. We encourage Users to frequently check this page for any changes to stay informed about how we are helping to protect the personal information we collect. You acknowledge and agree that it is your responsibility to review this privacy policy periodically and become aware of modifications.
