This Privacy Policy explains how Noorise ("we", "us", or "our") collects, processes, and protects information when you install and use Noor Quran: Prayer & Athan (the "App") and our related services (collectively, the "Services"). Noorise operates as the data controller of your personal information under applicable data protection laws.
1. Information We Collect
1.1 Information You Provide Directly
- User Settings & Preferences: Chosen calculation conventions (e.g., Muslim World League, ISNA, Umm al-Qura), Juristic methods (Asr calculation), chosen audio reciters, and notification settings.
- Reading Progress & Bookmarks: Saved verses, custom reading bookmarks, and note entries. These are stored locally on your device.
- Support Communications: When you contact our support desk at ducmle.work@gmail.com, we collect your email address, message details, and any diagnostics shared to resolve your issue.
1.2 Information Collected Automatically
-
Geolocation Data:
- To compute accurate local prayer schedules, trigger Athan audio alerts, and display the precise direction to Mecca (Qibla Compass), the App requires access to device GPS coordinates and compass sensors.
- Location processing operates in the foreground while the App is active. You may disable GPS access via system settings at any time and manually select your city instead.
- Device & Network Identifiers: Operating system version, hardware model, system language, mobile carrier, and standard advertising identifiers (such as Google Advertising ID or Apple IDFA).
- Diagnostics & Analytics: Session metrics, feature usage frequency, and crash reports collected to monitor app stability and performance.
2. How We Use Your Information
We process collected data exclusively for explicit operational purposes:
- Calculating real-time prayer timetables, Athan alerts, and compass orientations.
- Maintaining, updating, and troubleshooting application features and performance crashes.
- Serving advertisements via verified advertising networks to sustain free access to our Services.
- Responding to user inquiries, technical bug reports, and support tickets.
- Complying with statutory obligations and protecting our legal rights.
3. Third-Party Services & Data Sharing
We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information. We partner only with reputable service providers bound by strict confidentiality and data protection obligations:
- Google Analytics for Firebase & Crashlytics: Used for aggregate analytics, app performance diagnostics, and crash logs.
- Google AdMob & Third-Party Ad Networks: Used to deliver non-personalized or personalized banner, interstitial, and rewarded ads subject to user consent and operating system ad-tracking controls.

4. Data Storage and Security
- Local Storage: Whenever possible, user preferences, bookmarks, and configuration parameters are stored locally on your device hardware.
- Security Safeguards: We employ industry-standard encryption protocols (TLS/SSL) for all network transmissions between the App and our backend services.
