Welcome to Azan, Prayer Times & Qibla (package com.deenislam), an Android app developed by SaifTech ("we", "our", or "us"). The app provides accurate daily prayer times, Azan (adhan) reminders, and a Qibla compass. This Privacy Policy explains what information the app collects, how it is used, and the choices you have.
Short version: Your location is used only on your device to calculate prayer times and the Qibla direction. We do not sell your personal data, and we do not require you to create an account.
By downloading or using Azan, Prayer Times & Qibla, you agree to the collection and use of information in accordance with this policy.
We do not collect your name, email address, phone number, contacts, photos, or messages.
| Permission | Why it is needed |
|---|---|
| Location (approximate / precise) | To calculate accurate prayer times and the Qibla direction for your position. You may deny it and select your city manually instead. |
| Notifications | To deliver Azan alerts and prayer time reminders at the right moment. |
| Alarms & exact scheduling | To trigger the Azan reminder precisely at each prayer time, even when the app is closed. |
| Sensors (compass / magnetometer) | To point the Qibla compass toward the Kaaba. |
| Internet / network state | To fetch prayer time data, city lookups, and to display ads where applicable. |
All permissions can be revoked at any time from your device's Android Settings → Apps → Azan, Prayer Times & Qibla → Permissions. Some features may stop working if a required permission is denied.
| Purpose | Data used |
|---|---|
| Calculate daily prayer times | Location or selected city, calculation preferences |
| Show Qibla direction | Location, compass sensor readings |
| Send Azan and prayer reminders | Prayer schedule, notification preferences |
| Improve app performance & fix bugs | Anonymous usage data, crash logs |
| Display advertising (free version) | Advertising identifier handled by our ad partner |
We never sell your personal data to third parties.
The app may use the following third-party services, each governed by its own privacy policy:
These providers may collect information used to identify your device. We do not control their data practices.
Your settings, selected location, and prayer schedule are stored locally on your device. Location coordinates are used to compute prayer times and Qibla direction and are not stored on our servers for identification purposes.
We do not operate any server that stores your data, and we keep no user database. Everything the app saves — your preferences, selected location and prayer schedule — is stored only on your device, and is deleted automatically when you clear the app's storage or uninstall the app. No action or request from you is required.
The anonymous diagnostic and advertising data handled by our providers is deleted automatically on their own schedules: Firebase Crashlytics deletes crash reports after 90 days, Google Analytics for Firebase deletes event data after its configured retention window, and Google deletes advertising-identifier data in line with its own policies. You can also reset or delete your advertising ID at any time from Android Settings → Google → Ads.
You remain in control of your data:
The app is suitable for a general audience and does not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us and we will remove it.
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will revise the "Last updated" date at the top of this page.
Continued use of Azan, Prayer Times & Qibla after a policy update constitutes your acceptance of the revised policy.
If you have any questions, concerns, or requests about this Privacy Policy, please reach out to the developer, SaifTech:
