What information does Mumin App ask of you?
Mumin App is an app made for prayer times and khatm circles. It does not ask for unnecessary information. Below we briefly describe what we keep and what we do not.
- No sign-up. No name, email, phone number or login is requested.
- No ads, no data sales. Your data is not sold or shared with advertising companies. No third-party advertising or analytics tools and no tracking cookies are used.
- Anonymous usage statistics. To improve the app we collect which screens are used, app version, phone type and brand, display/theme/font size preferences, the selected country/city and calculation method, and error logs. These are not linked to your identity, are kept under a random installation number and can be switched off in the app settings.
- Your GPS location never leaves your phone. Times are calculated on the phone. Only the country and city name that you choose are sent to the server. Your worship information, such as your prayer and qada records, stays only on your phone.
- Optional Qibla map. You open the map view on the Qibla screen only after a one-time notice and your consent, and can turn it off under Settings > Privacy > “Qibla map”. While it is on, map tiles are downloaded from the third-party map provider OpenFreeMap (tiles.openfreemap.org); the provider can see the area you are viewing (around your chosen city, i.e. an approximate location) and your IP address. Your GPS coordinates are not sent, no account or identifier is transmitted, and the map component collects no analytics. While the map is off or has never been opened, no map request is made.
- Optional nearby mosques. only if you open it and give consent, your approximate location (rounded to about 1 km) and your IP address are sent to OpenStreetMap Overpass servers (overpass-api.de and its backups); your exact GPS coordinates, account or identifier are not sent. Results are kept on your device for 24 hours. Can be switched off under Settings > Privacy > “Nearby mosques”; no request is made while it is off or never confirmed.
- Your IP address is not recorded. The server keeps no access log.
- Deleted after 400 days. Usage statistics and error logs are automatically deleted after 400 days.
- Khatm circles are encrypted. The circle's name, intention, commemoration name and nicknames can be read only by people who have the invitation link. The decryption key is in the
#k=…part of the link and is not sent to the server. - Deleted after 90 days. Circles with no activity for 90 days are automatically deleted.
What goes to the server?
The app downloads the signed prayer times package and the gold price (no data linked to your identity), and in circles it sends and receives juz' statuses and encrypted content. Anonymous usage statistics are also sent: a random installation number, app version, platform, major OS version, language, phone brand, screen size class, theme and font size preference, the state of permissions, the country and city name you chose, calculation method, counters for the screens opened and features used, and error logs. Your GPS location, name, phone number, email and IP address are not part of these records. You can switch off sending statistics in the app settings. Apart from this, only while the optional Qibla map is open are map tiles downloaded from a third-party provider (OpenFreeMap); these requests do not go to the Mumin App server. Likewise, if you open the optional nearby-mosques list and consent, your approximate location (rounded to about 1 km) and your IP address are sent to OpenStreetMap Overpass servers (overpass-api.de and its backups); your exact GPS coordinates, account or identifier are not sent, the request does not touch the Mumin App server, and none is made while the list is off. For the detailed table, see the KVKK Privacy Notice.
Web participation page
When you open an invitation link in the browser, a random participant token and your nickname are stored in your browser's local storage. No cookies are used; this data is not linked to your identity on the server. You can remove it by clearing browser data. No resource, fonts included, is loaded from third-party servers.
Content safety
Circles can be reported for harmful content; once enough reports are received, the circle is closed. No IP address is kept in a report. See Support.
