Privacy Policy
Last updated: 7 July 2026
This Privacy Policy explains what data Fajr Up (“Fajr Up”, “we”, “us”) collects, how we use it, and the choices you have. Fajr Up is an alarm and habit app that helps Muslims wake up for the Fajr prayer. We designed Fajr Up to keep as much of your data on your device as possible.
1. Data we process on your device only
The following is processed locally on your iPhone and is not sent to us:
- Location — used to calculate your Fajr and sunrise times and to power the alarm. Your coordinates stay on your device.
- Microphone / speech — when you recite the wake-up du‘a or a Qur’an verse, recognition runs on-device (iOS Speech and an on-device Qur’an model). Audio is not uploaded.
- Motion & camera pose detection — prayer-movement missions run on-device.
- App settings, streaks and wake history — stored locally on your device.
2. Data sent to our services
- Scan-mission photos — when you scan a Qur’an verse or an object to dismiss your alarm, the photo is sent to our backend and an AI vision provider (OpenAI) solely to verify the image. Photos are used for verification and are not used to build a profile of you.
- Account & groups (optional) — if you create an account to use Fajr Buddies, we store your email address and a display name. If you join or create a group, we store your group membership and your daily Fajr completion status so your group can see it.
- Subscription status — purchase and entitlement data is processed by Apple and RevenueCat to unlock Fajr Up Pro.
3. Service providers
We rely on the following processors, who may handle limited data on our behalf:
- Apple — app distribution and in-app purchases.
- RevenueCat — subscription management and receipt validation.
- Supabase — secure database and authentication for accounts, groups and streak data.
- OpenAI — AI verification of scan-mission images.
4. How we use data
- To provide the alarm, missions, streaks and Suhūr reminders.
- To operate Fajr Buddies groups you choose to join.
- To verify scan missions.
- To manage subscriptions and loyalty rewards.
We do not sell your personal data.
5. Notifications
With your permission, Fajr Up sends local notifications (e.g. a reminder the evening before a fasting day). These are generated on your device.
6. Data retention & deletion
Local data is removed when you delete the app. Account and group data is kept while your account is active. You can request deletion of your account and associated data at any time by emailing support@fajrup.co.
7. Your rights
Depending on your location (including under the EU/EEA GDPR), you may have the right to access, correct, delete or export your personal data, and to object to or restrict certain processing. To exercise these rights, contact us at support@fajrup.co.
8. Children
Fajr Up is not directed at children under 13 (or the minimum age required in your country). We do not knowingly collect data from children.
9. Changes
We may update this policy. Material changes will be reflected by the “Last updated” date above.
