سياسة الخصوصية

Introduction

Rabe3 Al-Quloob (“ربيع القلوب”, “we”, “us”) respects your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains what information the Android app may process, how it is used, and your choices.

Quick summary

• We do not sell user data.
• Most of your data (bookmarks, settings, kids progress, prayer preferences) stays on your device.
• Microphone, camera, and location — when used — are for in-app features and require your permission.
• Internet access is used to download Quran pages, audio, translations, and to improve stability.

Information we process

• Local app data: bookmarks, notes, settings, kids mode progress, reading and audio preferences.
• Downloaded files: Quran page images, recitations, and translations you choose to download.
• Location: when you enable Qibla or prayer times/adhan; used to estimate Qibla direction and prayer times for the city you select or your device location. We do not sell location data or use it for ads.
• Microphone: when you use recitation/repeat/practice or audio experience features; audio is processed in-feature on device whenever possible and may be stored locally for practice.
• Camera: front-facing mirror preview only when you enable that feature; we do not record or upload video/photos from this preview.
• Notifications & alarms: for reading reminders and adhan alerts you enable, including exact-alarm scheduling when permitted.
• Optional technical data: production builds may enable Firebase Analytics and/or Crashlytics to process limited technical/diagnostic data (such as device model, OS version, and anonymized or pseudonymized crash information) to improve stability. We do not use the advertising ID for ad personalization.

How we use information

• To provide Quran reading, listening, and recitation features.
• To save your progress and preferences on device.
• To calculate prayer times and Qibla direction and deliver adhan alerts.
• To support kids mode and voice-practice features.
• To diagnose crashes and improve reliability when analytics tools are enabled.

Sharing

We do not sell personal information. Limited technical data may be processed by trusted service providers (such as Google services if analytics/Crashlytics is enabled, and Google Play for distribution/updates) solely to operate and improve the app, subject to their policies.

Children’s privacy

The app includes a kids mode designed as an on-device learning experience and may request microphone permission for repeat/practice. Parents/guardians should review kids settings and permissions. We do not require children to create an account or provide an email address to use core features, and the app does not show ads.

Permissions

• Internet / network state: downloads and updates.
• Storage (when required on older Android versions): saving Quran pages and files.
• Location (coarse/fine): Qibla and prayer times/adhan.
• Microphone: recitation, repeat/practice, and audio experiences.
• Camera: optional mirror preview only.
• Notifications: reminders and adhan alerts you enable.
• Exact alarms (SCHEDULE_EXACT_ALARM): to play adhan on time when permitted.
• Battery optimization exemption (optional): to improve adhan reliability on some devices.
• Foreground services: file downloads and audio/adhan playback in the background.

Retention & deletion

Local data remains on your device until you clear app data, remove it from in-app controls, or uninstall the app. Analytics/crash data — if enabled — is retained according to the service provider’s policies.

Changes

We may update this policy from time to time. The “Last updated” date above reflects the latest version. Continued use of the app after an update means you acknowledge the revised policy.
