1. Information We Collect

Information you provide (stored only on your device):

This information is stored only on your device. It is not sent to our servers or the cloud, and we cannot access it.

Location information:

We use your city to calculate prayer times.
Your city is sent to a third-party service (Aladhan API — aladhan.com) to retrieve prayer times.
We do not store your precise location (GPS coordinates); it is used only for prayer time calculation.

Information collected through ads:

The free version of the app displays ads.
Our ad provider [Google AdMob] may collect information such as your advertising identifier, device type, and approximate location to personalize ads.
On iOS, you will be asked for permission (App Tracking Transparency). If you decline, you will see non-personalized ads.
Premium subscribers do not see ads.

5. Children's Privacy
