My Hajj & Umrah Journey · Last updated 5 September 2026

Short version: this App has no accounts, no sign-up, no ads, no analytics, no crash reporting and no tracking. What you write stays on your own device and we cannot see it. It reaches the network for two things only: prayer times and, if you ask for it, an audio download.

1. Who we are

Safiye Meram, Esenler/İstanbul, Türkiye. E-mail: gelistirbizi@gmail.com. We are the data controller for the limited processing described below.

2. What stays on your device

All of the following is kept in the App's own storage on your phone. It is never uploaded to us, and we cannot read it:

You can download all of it as a single file, or erase all of it, from Me, then My data. Uninstalling the App deletes everything. There is no cloud backup, so once it is gone we cannot bring it back.

3. The health card and other sensitive entries

The emergency health card can hold your blood type, chronic conditions, medication and allergies. Under Article 9 of the GDPR and Article 6 of the Turkish Personal Data Protection Law (KVKK) this is special category data, and it is treated accordingly: it is stored only on your device, it is shown only on the screen when you open it, it is never transmitted, never analysed, and never seen by us. Your gender, and the fact that you are preparing for a pilgrimage, are also sensitive categories, and the same applies to them.

Because the health card is meant to be shown to a stranger in an emergency, anyone who picks up your unlocked phone can read it. Keep a screen lock on your phone.

4. Location

Location access is requested for one purpose: counting your circuits of tawaf and your legs of sa'y automatically. Your location is:

The App does not run location in the background, does not build a location history, and does not use location for advertising or analytics. There is no such thing in it.

5. The only outbound requests

The App is built to work offline. It reaches the network in exactly these cases:

WhatWhereWhat is sent
Prayer times for Makkah and Madinahapi.aladhan.comOnly a city name. No identifier, no location of yours, no personal data. The answer is cached, so the App keeps showing the last times when there is no network.
Audio recordings, only if you choose to download themThe audio hostOnly a request for the file.

As with any request over the internet, the receiving server sees your IP address and can keep its own logs. We do not receive those logs and cannot connect them to you. Nothing else in the App connects to the network.

6. Payments

If you choose to make a contribution, it is handled entirely by the App Store or Google Play. Your card details are never entered into the App, never seen by us and never stored by us. We receive a payout from the store without your name, your card or your address attached. There is no third party payment or subscription service in the App.

7. Notifications

Reminders are produced on your own device at the time you choose. There is no push server and no subscription: nothing about your plan or your progress is sent anywhere in order to remind you. You can turn them off in the App or in your phone's settings.

8. No analytics, no advertising, no tracking

The App contains no analytics library, no advertising network, no crash reporter and no tracking identifier. We do not know how many screens you opened, which supplication you read or whether you finished your plan. There are no cookies, because there is no website inside the App and no server behind it.

9. Children

The App is suitable for all ages and is not directed to children. Since it collects no data from anyone, it collects none from children either. If a child uses your phone, everything written above applies unchanged.

10. Your rights

Under the GDPR and the KVKK you have the right to access, correct, export and erase your personal data. In this App you exercise those rights directly, without asking us: the data is already yours and only yours, and export and deletion are one tap away in Me, then My data. We hold no copy, so there is nothing for us to hand over or delete on your behalf. If you want to complain about how we process data, you can write to us, and you may lodge a complaint with your national supervisory authority, in Türkiye the Personal Data Protection Authority (KVKK Kurumu).

11. How long it is kept

For as long as you keep it. We set no expiry, because the data never reaches us. It is deleted when you delete it or when you uninstall the App.

12. Changes

If this policy changes, the current version is always the one published at this address, and a change that affects you is announced inside the App.
