Privacy Policy

Prayer Times · Last updated: May 19, 2026

1. Information We Collect

We collect no personal information. Prayer Times is a fully offline application. Specifically:

• We do not collect your name, email, or any identity information.
• We do not collect or transmit your location data. Location is processed entirely on your device to calculate prayer times and is never sent anywhere.
• We do not use any analytics SDK (no Firebase, no Mixpanel, no Amplitude).
• We do not use any advertising SDK.
• We do not require account creation or login.

2. How the App Works

Prayer times are calculated entirely on your device using astronomical formulas (Jean Meeus algorithm) and the open-source Adhan-swift library. No internet connection is required or used for this calculation.

Your location (GPS coordinates or manually selected city) is stored locally on your device in Apple's secure SwiftData store. It is never transmitted.

3. Optional Network Request

The "Live Verify" feature in Settings → How Is This Calculated? makes a single, on-demand request to the public AlAdhan.com API to compare your calculated times against a reference source. This request:

• Is only triggered when you explicitly tap the "Live Verify" button.
• Sends only your latitude and longitude to AlAdhan.com — no device ID, no personal data.
• Is never automatic or in the background.

If you prefer not to use this feature, simply do not tap the button. All core functionality works fully offline.

Subscriptions & Payments

Optional subscriptions are processed entirely by Apple. We never receive or store your payment details, name, or Apple ID.

We use RevenueCat to manage subscription status. RevenueCat receives a randomly generated, non-personal app user ID and your purchase/entitlement status only — never your name, email, or location. It is not an analytics or advertising service. See RevenueCat's privacy policy.

4. Data Storage

All preferences (madhab, location, notification settings) are stored locally on your device using Apple's SwiftData framework. This data is:

• Never transmitted to any server.
• Included in iCloud Backup if you have iCloud Backup enabled on your device (this is Apple's system, not ours).
• Deleted when you delete the app.

5. Children's Privacy

Prayer Times does not knowingly collect any data from anyone, including children under 13. The app contains no account system and no data collection of any kind.

6. Third-Party Services

Prayer Times uses the following open-source libraries, none of which collect data:

• Adhan-swift (MIT License) — prayer time calculation engine, runs locally.

City data is sourced from GeoNames (CC-BY 4.0) and is bundled with the app — no network request is made to GeoNames.

7. Changes to This Policy

If we ever change this policy, we will update the "Last updated" date above and post the new policy at this URL. Significant changes will be noted in the App Store release notes.
