Privacy Policy

Effective Date: January 20, 2026

Summary: My Prayer Times is built to work locally first. If you sign in, you can use cloud sync/backup (Firebase). We do not sell your data. You can export or delete your cloud data from the Account Management page.

1. Controller & Contact

This policy applies to My Prayer Times (“we”, “us”).

Legal Entity: Salman Sorathia
Privacy Contact: general@myprayertimes.org

2. Data We Process

Depending on what features you use, we may process:

2.1 Location Data

We collect your device's location information to provide core app functionality:

How we use it: Location data is processed locally on your device and used solely for calculating prayer times, Qibla direction, and detecting travel. We do not sell, share, or transmit your precise location to third parties for advertising or tracking purposes.

Storage: Your last known location is cached locally on your device to provide faster loading of prayer times. It is not transmitted to our servers unless you explicitly enable cloud sync of preferences (which includes your selected city/coordinates, not your real-time GPS).

2.2 Other Data

We do not sell personal data and we do not run ads.

3. Local Storage vs Cloud Sync

Local-first: by default, your app data is stored locally on your device.

Cloud sync (optional): if you sign in, selected data may be synced to Firebase (Google Cloud) to enable backup and multi-device use.

4. AI Features

If you use the AI assistant, your messages may be sent to a third-party AI provider (currently OpenAI) to generate responses.

If you are signed in, AI chat history may also be stored in Firebase under your account for sync/backup.

5. Crash Reporting

We use Sentry for serious crash/error reporting to improve stability. Crash reports may include technical diagnostics (e.g., device/app version and error details). We do not intentionally include your religious data in crash reports.

6. Bug Reports

If you submit a bug report, it may be stored in Firebase. Please avoid including sensitive personal information in bug report text.

7. Third Parties

When you visit this website, your device may fetch resources from third-party hosts (e.g., Google Fonts), which may receive your IP address as part of delivering that content.

9. Retention

10. Your Rights

You can exercise GDPR rights (access, deletion, portability) via the Account Management page:

For help, contact general@myprayertimes.org.

11. Security

We use access controls and encryption provided by our infrastructure providers (e.g., Firebase) and apply least-access principles to user data.

12. Children

If you are a parent/guardian and believe a child has provided personal information, contact us at general@myprayertimes.org.

13. Changes

We may update this policy from time to time. We will update the effective date above and publish the revised version here.


This policy is subject to change. Please check back periodically for updates.
