Privacy policy

Quran & Prayer - Deen Coach (“the App”) is an Islamic mobile application developed by Wazmine, distributed worldwide via the App Store and Google Play. We are committed to protecting your privacy. This policy explains how we handle your data, regardless of your country of residence and the store from which you installed the App.

The app is designed to work offline: essential features and previously downloaded content remain available without a connection. Downloads, version checks, optional bug reports and some phone services may use the internet.

This policy covers the mobile app and the deencoach.app website.

• App: your profile, preferences and progress are stored on your device. Bug reports are optional.
• Website: the hosting provider processes technical connection data; newsletter registration is optional.

The app does not require an account and does not display advertising.

• An installation identifier is generated for local operation.
• If you enable bug reports, technical error information may be sent to Sentry to help diagnose problems.
• Speech recognition and place search may use your device's system services, including online services.
• Downloads and version checks involve network requests.

Your profile, preferences, bookmarks, progress and reading history are stored on your device. The app uses a local SQLite database, among other storage. It does not offer account-based synchronization.

Your reference location and information needed for prayer times are stored locally. During cleanup, cached prayer times older than 90 days are deleted. An installation identifier is stored on the device.

From the Profile, you can export your data as an encrypted backup (.dcb file), protected by a password of at least 12 characters that you choose. The file stays wherever you save it: Deen Coach never receives it. The same screen lets you import it, which replaces your current data, and permanently delete all your data from the device (profile, progress, bookmarks, sessions, settings). The app's database and downloaded content are excluded from automatic iCloud and Android backups.

The app may request the following permissions depending on the features you use:

• Microphone: for voice search and recitation exercises. Transcription depends on your phone's recognition engine and may use the internet; it is also subject to its provider's settings and privacy policy.
• Location: for prayer times, Qibla and reminders. Your chosen reference location is stored locally. The optional “Always” permission may allow the location to adapt during travel even when the app is closed. Some place-search services may use the internet.
• Notifications: for reminders you choose.
• Storage: for content you download.

You can manage permissions in your device settings. Denying a permission may limit the features that depend on it.

Signing up for the newsletter is optional and requires your consent and confirmation by email.

• Data: email address, chosen language and information relating to registration and its status.
• Purpose: manage registration and send the newsletter.
• Provider: EmailOctopus receives the information necessary to manage the list and mailings.
• Measurement: open and click tracking is disabled.
• Unsubscribe and requests: use the unsubscribe link in the emails. To request access to or deletion of data, write to [email protected].

The following services may be involved depending on your choices and the features used:

• Sentry: receives bug reports when you enable this option. The project is configured for a European region. Sentry privacy policy.
• Cloudflare: website hosting and security; requests may include your IP address and technical connection information. Cloudflare privacy policy.
• EmailOctopus: manages the optional newsletter. EmailOctopus privacy policy.
• Phone services and content providers: the system may process speech or place-search requests; content providers receive the requests needed for downloads.

Depending on the features used, information may be processed by the providers and services described in sections 6 and 8. Content providers also receive the requests needed when you download a pack.

The app can be used by families. Parents or guardians can manage phone permissions and the choice to enable bug reports. For questions about a child's data, contact [email protected].

The website uses HTTPS. App permissions can be managed in your device settings. Local data is also subject to your system's protections and backup options.

Depending on applicable law, you may be able to request access to, correction or deletion of your data, restriction of processing, to object, or to request portability where those rights apply. Where processing is based on consent, you may withdraw it.

To exercise your rights or ask about the app, website or newsletter, write to [email protected]. You may also complain to the competent supervisory authority, for example the CNIL in France.

Some providers use infrastructure in several countries. Sentry is configured for a European region; Cloudflare operates a global network. Processing by phone services and stores also depends on their providers and your settings. For questions about recipients or transfers, contact [email protected].

The app is distributed by Apple and Google. When you install or update it, those companies may process data under their own policies: Apple and Google. Store listings also display their privacy information.

Changes to this policy will be published on this page with their date.
