2. Zero Personal Data Collection Policy
We hold sacred the privacy of your devotion. Al Zikr does not collect any personal identifying information from or about you:
- No Account Registration: Al Zikr requires zero sign-in, zero email addresses, zero passwords, and zero profile creation.
- No Personal Identifiers: We do not collect names, phone numbers, contact books, photos, or device media.

3. Local Device Storage (100% On-Device Dhikr Data)
All counter records, daily tallies, weekly 21k goal progress, and user preferences (such as vibration and sound toggles) are stored strictly locally on the user's physical device using Android's private, sandboxed local storage (localStorage / SQLite).
Because zero recitation records are uploaded to remote servers, your devotional history resides exclusively on your handset and is never accessible to DEENCLIPS or any third party. Your spiritual devotion remains entirely private between you and the Almighty.
4. Advertising & Monetization (Google AdMob Disclosures)
In full compliance with Google Play Developer Program Policies:
- Ad Serving: When an active internet connection is detected, Google AdMob may serve family-friendly, non-intrusive advertisements compliant with Google Play Developer Policies.
- Technical Identifiers: In accordance with standard Google Mobile Ads SDK protocols, third-party ad networks (Google AdMob and Google Play Services) may process standard pseudonymous technical identifiers (such as Google Advertising ID / GAID, IP address, and ad interaction metrics) strictly for ad delivery, impression frequency capping, and fraud prevention. Zero personal dhikr counts or devotional records are ever shared with advertisers.
- 100% Offline Functionality: When your device is offline or in Airplane Mode, Al Zikr operates smoothly with zero ads and zero network interruptions. All core counter features remain completely accessible.
- User Control & Advertising ID Reset: You can reset or delete your device Advertising ID at any time in Android system settings: Settings > Google > Ads.
5. App Access & Reviewer Declaration
100% Unrestricted Functionality: All features in Al Zikr are immediately accessible without any restrictions. There are no paywalls, gated content, 2-factor authentication, or login credentials. Google Play reviewers and automated policy test runners can evaluate 100% of the application immediately upon launch.
