Al-Quran Privacy Policy

Al-Quran (package name com.shafi.quran) is a Holy Quran reading app — Mushaf pages, translations, bookmarks, Juz/Hizb navigation, and local prayer-time reminders. This policy explains, plainly, what the app does and doesn't do with your information.

At a glance

The app has no internet connection at all — nothing it does can reach a server.
No account, sign-in, or personal details are ever requested.
Nothing you do in the app — reading, bookmarking, settings — ever leaves your device.
No ads, no analytics, no trackers, no third-party SDKs of any kind.

Information we collect

None. Al-Quran does not collect, transmit, or have any way of receiving any information about you or your device. The app is built without an internet permission — technically, there is no network connection for any data to travel over, even if the app wanted to send something.

We don't know who our users are, how many people use the app, or how it's used. We have no analytics of any kind.

What's stored on your device

The app does save a few things, but only in its own private storage area on your phone — the same sandbox every Android app gets, invisible to other apps and never synced anywhere:

Your bookmarks — whichever Mushaf pages or ayahs you've tapped the bookmark icon on.
Your reading position — so "Continue Reading" can take you back to where you left off.
Masjid names and Jamat (congregation prayer) times — if you add a masjid under Masjid Jamat Times, its name and the five prayer times you type in are saved locally so the app can remind you.
Your app preferences — display language, which translations are shown, whether the Azan reminder sound is on, and your chosen city for calculated prayer times.

All of it stays on your device. Uninstalling the app, or clearing its data from Android's Settings, deletes it completely and irreversibly — we can't retrieve it, because we never had it.

Permissions the app requests

Android apps must declare every permission they use. Al-Quran requests exactly two, both purely local to your device:

Permission	What it's for
Post notifications	Shows the Jamat reminder notification you've set up for a masjid, at the time you chose. No data is collected or sent anywhere to show it.
Run at device startup	Android clears all scheduled reminders when your phone restarts. This lets the app quietly re-schedule your Jamat reminders after a restart, without you having to reopen the app.

That's the complete list. The app never asks for camera, microphone, contacts, location, storage, or any other permission — it simply has no use for them. It also has location permission: none — prayer times are calculated from a city you pick yourself in Settings, never from GPS.

Third-party services

There are none. Al-Quran does not include any advertising SDK, analytics SDK, crash-reporting tool, or any other third-party library that collects data. It doesn't talk to Google Play services, Firebase, or any external server — the app's Quran text, translations, and audio are all bundled inside the app itself.

Security

Because nothing leaves your device, there's no transmission to secure and no server of ours that could be breached. Your data is protected the same way Android protects any app's private storage — sandboxed from other apps on your phone. We've also turned off Android's automatic cloud backup for this app's data, so a phone backup or restore can't move it off-device either.

Children's privacy

Al-Quran is suitable for a general, family audience and contains no age-restricted material. Since the app collects no personal information from anyone — adult or child — there is nothing to safeguard beyond what's already described above.

Changes to this policy

If a future update to the app ever changes what it does with data — for example, adding a feature that needs a new permission — this page will be updated first, with a new "Last updated" date above, before that update reaches you.
