This Privacy Policy explains what data the Telafi app (the "App") processes and why, who we share it with and how you can exercise your rights. In this document, “FIRTINEX” and “we” refer to the developer of Telafi. You can send questions to firtinexteknoloji@gmail.com.
01No account needed
Telafi does not ask for your name, email, phone number or a password. When you first open the App, a random ID is created on your device; your data is stored under this ID and, if you create one, your recovery code.
02Data we process
- Worship and tracking data: missed prayer (kaza) and fasting calculations, completed prayers, daily activities, goals, Quran completion (hatim), dhikr and similar progress.
- Kaza calculation data: gender, school of law (madhab), birth date, age of puberty and the date you began praying regularly; optionally your name, the number of days spent travelling or seriously ill and, for women, yearly days of menstruation and number of births (nifas). Your app settings are stored with this data.
- Backup: this data and your progress are automatically backed up to our server, linked to a random ID created on your device, so it isn't lost when you change phones or reinstall.
- Recovery code: if you create a recovery code (TLF-…) with “Protect your account”, your other records (fasting kaza, Quran completion, goals, Halka and consultation preferences, including the last used location coordinates) are also kept in a backup linked to this code. Your recovery code is a secret key for restoring your backup; anyone who knows it can restore your backup, so do not share it.
- Technical data: random device ID, device model, operating system, app version and Plus membership status.
- Location (only with your permission): used for prayer times and the qibla direction. Coordinates are sent to the Aladhan service to calculate prayer times; the city name is resolved by your device's location service. The last coordinates are stored on your device and included in your recovery-code backup if you create one. Without permission you can pick your city manually.
- Halka (community) features: your nickname, short bio, posts, replies, prayer requests, consultation (istişare) questions and votes, Quran circles you join, and report/block records. This content can be seen by anyone using the App, under your nickname; we recommend not sharing your real name, health details or other personal information.
- Purchases: if you buy Plus, payment is handled by Apple or Google; we never see your card details. Membership status is verified through RevenueCat.
- On-device data: notification schedules, widget data and the PDF worship report you create are generated and stored on your device.
We do not access your contacts, photos, camera or microphone. The App has no ads and we do not track you across other apps or websites.
03Sensitive information
Your worship records may reveal your religious beliefs, and days of menstruation, nifas or illness relate to your health. Entering this information is optional and it is used only to calculate your kaza and keep your backup. We never use it for advertising, profiling or sale.
04Why we use data
- To calculate your kaza and show your progress and reminders,
- To back up your data and restore it with your recovery code,
- To show prayer times and the qibla direction,
- To run the Halka community, prevent inappropriate content and review reports,
- To verify Plus membership, fix problems and improve the App.
We do not sell your data or use it for advertising.
05Service providers
- Google Firebase (Cloud Firestore): storage of backups and Halka content,
- Aladhan (aladhan.com): prayer time calculation by coordinates,
- RevenueCat: membership validation,
- Apple and Google: app distribution, payments, location and notification infrastructure.
These providers process data only to provide their services to us.
06Retention and security
Backups and Halka content are kept until you ask us to delete them. Data is transmitted over encrypted connections (HTTPS/TLS). Keeping your recovery code private is important for the security of your backup. No transmission over the internet can be guaranteed to be 100% secure.
07Where data is stored
Google Firebase (where backups and Halka content are stored), the Aladhan prayer time service and RevenueCat operate servers outside Türkiye; your data is therefore transferred to these providers abroad.
These transfers are limited to what is needed for the app to work.
08Your rights
To access your data or ask us to correct or delete it, write to firtinexteknoloji@gmail.com. We respond within 30 days and may ask for some details to find your records.
09Children
The App is not available to users under 13; an age check is shown on first launch. If you believe a child under 13 is using the App, contact us and we will delete the data.
10Changes and contact
We may update this document from time to time. The current version is always published on this page; where possible we also announce significant changes in the app.
