Nur — Privacy Policy

Last updated: 31 July 2026
Nur · Quran & Azkar

Nur (“the app”) is a free, ad-free Quran & Azkar application developed by Omar Essam Salah. Your privacy matters, and the app is built to respect it.

The short version

Nur does not collect, store, or share any personal data. There are no accounts, no ads, no analytics, and no trackers. Everything you do stays on your device.

Information we collect

None. The app has no sign-up or login. We do not collect your name, email, contacts, or any identifiers, and we operate no servers that receive your data.

Data stored on your device

Your bookmarks, reading and memorization progress, tasbih counts, prayer tracking, and settings are saved locally on your device only. This never leaves your device unless you choose to export a backup file yourself. Uninstalling the app or clearing its data removes it.

Location

If you allow it, the app uses your device’s location only to calculate prayer times and the Qibla direction. This calculation happens entirely on your device — your location is never transmitted to us or to any third party. You can deny or revoke this permission at any time in your system settings; the rest of the app keeps working.

Notifications

The app can show local notifications (the adhan and the reminders you enable). These are scheduled on your device. The app uses no push notifications and sends no data to do this.

Internet use to download content

The Quran text, azkar, guide, and prayer-time calculations are built in and work offline. To download optional content — audio recitations, printed-mushaf page images, translations, tafsir, and hadith — the app requests it from public content providers, including:

These are ordinary requests to fetch content and contain no personal identifiers from you. As with any internet request, a provider’s servers may receive technical information such as your IP address in order to deliver the content; that is governed by each provider’s own privacy policy.

Nearest Mosque

The “Nearest Mosque” feature opens Google Maps when you tap it. Google Maps is a third-party service governed by Google’s Privacy Policy.

Sharing and selling

We do not sell, rent, or share any data — because we do not collect any.

Children

The app is suitable for users of all ages and collects no personal data from anyone, including children.

Changes to this policy

We may update this policy; the “Last updated” date above will change accordingly.
