Privacy Policy

Last updated: 15 October 2026

This is an English translation of the Turkish original. If the two versions differ, the Turkish version prevails.

This policy applies to the Prayer Tracker: Qada & Salah mobile app (called Namaz Hesabım in Turkish; iOS and Android) and to the namazhesabim.com website. It was prepared with regard to the Turkish Personal Data Protection Law No. 6698 ("KVKK") and the EU General Data Protection Regulation ("GDPR"). The website is static: it uses no cookies and no forms.

Website visit statistics: We count page visits on namazhesabim.com with an open-source analytics tool running on our own server, without cookies; your IP address is stored in anonymised form. The information processed is the page visited, the referring address, browser and operating system type, screen resolution and language setting. It is used only to see how the site is used; it is not shared with third parties and not used for advertising. This statistics tool runs only on the website, not in the mobile app. The data Google AdMob processes for ads in the app is described in section 3.

1. Data the app stores on your device

The app stores only the following data, and only on your device:

• Prayer records – which prayers (Fajr, Dhuhr, Asr, Maghrib, Isha, Witr) you marked as prayed on which day, and the tahajjud rak'ahs you entered.
• Qada settings – the date your missed prayers start from and whether Witr is included.
• Preferences – whether the daily reminder is on and its time, the app language, and a few app settings (for example whether the introduction was shown, the time of the first launch and of the last rating request).
• Last report – the most recently created report, so it is still there when you open the app again.

This data is kept in the app's private storage on your device; it is not sent over the internet and does not reach us or anyone else. Prayer records may allow conclusions about religious belief; since they never leave your device, we do not process them in any way. The app does not ask for your name, email, phone number, location, contacts or photos.

Device backup: If your device's own backup is on, your records are included in it — iCloud backup (or a computer backup) on iPhone, the device backup with your Google account on Android. These backups belong to your Apple / Google account and are subject to that company's privacy terms; as the developer we cannot access them. You can turn backup off in your device settings.

Deletion: Settings → Delete all data deletes all records in the app immediately and permanently. Uninstalling the app also deletes the data on the device; you manage existing device backups in your iCloud / Google account settings.

2. Export file and PDF report

• Export: Settings → Export data writes your records as a single JSON file to the place you choose (Files, a cloud drive, email, etc.). Only you decide where the file goes; the app keeps no copy and does not send it to us. The privacy terms of the services where you save or share the file apply.
• Import: The file you choose is read only on your device and written into the app.
• PDF report: Report → Save as PDF creates the report on your device, in the app's temporary storage, and hands it to the system share / save sheet. The PDF is not sent to us.

3. Ads (Google AdMob)

The app is free and shows ads through Google AdMob (Google LLC / Google Ireland Limited). For this, the AdMob SDK runs on your device and communicates with Google's servers; it is the only part of the app that connects to the internet. According to Google, the SDK may process the following data:

Your prayer records and qada data are never given to the ad SDK and are not linked to ad data.

Personalized ads and your choices

• Default: Google shows personalized ads based on the advertising ID and ad interaction history. You can turn this off at any time with the settings below; you will then see non-personalized ads. No feature of the app depends on consent.
• European Union, United Kingdom: On first launch the app shows Google's consent form (User Messaging Platform, UMP); personalized ads are served only if you consent. You can change your choice later in the app under Settings → Ads → Ad privacy options.
• iOS: The app asks for permission under Apple's App Tracking Transparency (ATT) framework. If you don't allow it, your advertising ID is not used. You can withdraw permission at any time in Settings → Privacy & Security → Tracking.
• Android: You can reset or delete your advertising ID in Settings → Google → Ads (on some devices Settings → Privacy → Ads); once deleted, apps cannot get an ID for personalized ads.

For the processing of ad data, Google is an independent controller; processing is subject to the Google Privacy Policy and the page How Google uses information from sites or apps that use its services. Google may process this data outside Türkiye and the European Union (for example in the USA). You can also manage ad personalization for your Google account on the Google Ad Settings page.

4. Your rights

Under Article 11 of the KVKK and Articles 15–22 of the GDPR you have the right to access, rectify and erase your personal data, to restrict and object to processing, and to data portability. As the developer of the app we hold no data about you, so you exercise these rights directly yourself:

• Access and portability: Settings → Export data (a common, machine-readable JSON format).
• Rectification: open the day in the calendar and change the marks; change the qada start date in the Qada tab.
• Erasure: Settings → Delete all data or uninstall the app; for device backups use your iCloud / Google account settings.
• Ad data: since it is processed by Google, you can send requests to Google through the channels in the Google Privacy Policy and withdraw permission with the device settings in section 3.

If you still have a question or request, write to destek@namazhesabim.com; we reply free of charge within 30 days at the latest. When you email us, your email address and message are used only to answer your request. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with the Personal Data Protection Authority in Türkiye (kvkk.gov.tr) or, in the European Union, with the data protection authority of your country.

5. Children

The app is not directed at children under 13. It collects no personal data from any user and does not knowingly collect data from children under 13. Google's policies apply to ad content.

6. Changes

We may update this policy from time to time. The current version is always published on this page with its "Last updated" date; we announce important changes in the app. Continuing to use the app after a change means you accept the updated policy.

7. Data controller and contact

The app itself does not process personal data. For this policy and support correspondence, the responsible party and contact address within the meaning of the KVKK / GDPR is:

• Name / Title: [Name / Title]
• Address: [Address]
• Email: destek@namazhesabim.com
