1 What we store, and where
Sunnah Daily has no sign-up and no user accounts. Your reading progress, quiz scores, daily streak, theme choice, language setting, Quran bookmarks, notes, flashcard schedule, learning path, and your prayer-times location and settings are all saved with your browser's local storage, directly on your device. This data never leaves your device and is never sent to us. Clearing your browser data or uninstalling the app removes it.
To keep working offline, Sunnah Daily also keeps copies of pages you visit in your browser's own cache (a service worker). That cache holds site content only - never your personal data - and lives entirely on your device.
2 Third-party services we use
To keep pages fast and correct, a few pieces load from outside services:
- Fonts - typefaces load from Google Fonts. Your browser makes a direct request to Google's font servers, which can see your device's IP address, the way any web request does.
- Quran audio - recitation playback streams from public Quran audio APIs (cdn.islamic.network and related quran.com services). These requests happen directly between your browser and that service, only when you choose to play audio.
- Prayer times - the Prayer Times page calculates times from your location using the free Aladhan service (api.aladhan.com). If you tap "Use my location", your browser asks your permission first, and only then are your coordinates sent to that service to get the times back. If you type a city instead, only that city name is sent. Either way it happens only on that page, only when you ask for it, and we never receive or store your location ourselves. Your chosen place is saved in your browser's local storage so you don't have to set it again.
- Place names - to show "Sevierville, Tennessee" rather than a pair of numbers, your coordinates are sent to BigDataCloud's free reverse-geocoding service (api.bigdatacloud.net) to get the name back. Same as above: only on the Prayer Times page, only once you have set a location, and we never receive or store it ourselves.
- Gold and silver prices - on the Zakat Calculator, tapping "Get today's prices" asks two free services for the current spot price and exchange rate: gold-api.com and frankfurter.dev. Only that request is made - your amounts, your result, and everything you type stay on your device, saved in your browser's local storage. If you never tap the button, neither service is contacted.
- Read-aloud voices - the "Listen" feature on the English translation reader uses your device's own built-in text-to-speech voices. We prefer voices that run fully on your device; on some phones the operating system may provide a voice through its own online service, under that system's privacy terms. The text being read is the Quran translation already on the page - nothing you do or save is sent anywhere by us.
- Hosting - like any website, our hosting provider's servers keep standard technical logs (such as IP address and request time) to keep the site running and secure. We don't use these logs for tracking or advertising.
We don't run analytics, ad networks, or tracking cookies of our own.
The qibla direction is worked out on your device, from your coordinates, using plain geometry. Nothing is sent anywhere to point you towards Makkah. If you switch on the live compass, your phone's compass readings stay on your phone; they are only used to turn the dial on screen.
3 No selling, no sharing
We don't collect personal information to begin with, so there is nothing of yours to sell or share with advertisers or data brokers.
4 Children's privacy
Sunnah Daily is built for a general audience and does not knowingly collect personal information from anyone, including children, because it does not collect personal information at all.
