Introduction
LaunchIX ("we," "our," or "us") built the Hidayah app ("App") as a free app. This page informs you of our policies regarding the collection, use, and disclosure of personal information for users of our App.
In short: Hidayah works completely offline. We do not collect, store, transmit, or share any personal data whatsoever.
Information We Collect
Hidayah is designed to work entirely offline and does not collect any user data. Specifically:
- No personal information (name, email, phone number) is collected
- No usage analytics or tracking data is collected
- No advertising identifiers are collected
- No cookies or similar tracking technologies are used
- No data is shared with third parties
Location Data
The App requests location permission solely to calculate accurate prayer times for your city. Your location data:
- Is processed entirely on your device
- Is never transmitted to any server
- Is never shared with any third party
- Can be replaced with manual city selection at any time
You can deny location permission entirely and manually select your city instead. The app will function fully without granting location access.
Local Storage
The App stores your preferences (selected city, madhab, font size, bookmarks, alarm settings) locally on your device using SharedPreferences and a local SQLite database. This data:
- Never leaves your device
- Is not accessible to us or any third party
- Is deleted when you uninstall the app
Children's Privacy
Our App does not specifically target children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. Since we do not collect any personal data from any user, this concern does not apply.
Third-Party Services
The App does not use any third-party services that collect information. There are no ads, analytics SDKs, or tracking tools integrated in the App.
Data Security
Since the App does not collect, store, or transmit any user data to external servers, there is no risk of data breach or unauthorized access to your personal information through our systems. All data remains on your device under your control.
Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update our Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of any changes by posting the new Privacy Policy on this page and updating the "Last Updated" date at the top.
You are advised to review this Privacy Policy periodically for any changes. Changes to this Privacy Policy are effective when they are posted on this page.
