Privacy policy

Last updated 8 November 2026

Sukun doesn’t collect personal data. There is no account, no analytics, no advertising and no tracking. The only thing that ever leaves your phone is feedback you choose to send.

Who is responsible

The app

Location

If you allow it, Sukun uses your iPhone’s location to calculate prayer times and the Qibla direction, in the app and in its widgets. The coordinates are processed on your iPhone and stored only there, in storage the app shares with its own widgets. They are never sent to us. You can also deny location access and choose a city by hand.

Place names and city search

To show the name of the place you’re in, and when you search for a city, Sukun uses Apple’s geocoding and map search built into iOS. For this, Apple receives the coordinates or the search text and answers with the place. This is processed by Apple under the Apple Privacy Policy. We don’t receive any of it.

Notifications

Prayer reminders are local notifications scheduled by iOS on your iPhone. There is no push server.

Settings

Your settings and the last known location stay on your device. Deleting the app deletes them. If you use iCloud Backup, Apple includes them in your device backup.

Feedback

In Settings you can send us feedback. Only when you tap Send, the app transmits your message, the type you chose (idea, problem or wrong times) and, if you leave “Include technical details” on, the app version, iOS version, device model, language and calculation method. Your location is never included. Each message gets a random identifier, so messages can’t be linked to each other or to you. There is no email field; if you want a reply, write to us by email instead.

The feedback is received by PostHog Inc. (EU Cloud, data stored in Frankfurt, Germany) on our behalf, under a data processing agreement; IP addresses are discarded. We use the feedback only to improve Sukun and delete it after 12 months at the latest. The legal basis is your consent by sending (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR) and our legitimate interest in improving the app (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR).

No other third-party services

Sukun contains no analytics, advertising, crash-reporting or tracking SDKs; feedback is sent with a single request, not through an SDK. The only bundled library is Adhan, which calculates prayer times offline.

Information Apple shares with developers

If you’ve agreed in iOS to share analytics with app developers (Settings, Privacy & Security, Analytics & Improvements), Apple may give us anonymous, aggregated usage statistics and crash reports. They don’t identify you. Downloads and purchases are handled by Apple; we don’t receive your Apple Account details.

This website

sukun.faith is hosted on Cloudflare Workers by Cloudflare, Inc., 101 Townsend St., San Francisco, CA 94107, USA. When you open a page, your browser sends technical data such as your IP address, the time, the page requested and your browser type. Cloudflare processes this to deliver the site and protect it from attacks, and may store it in short-lived logs (see the Cloudflare Privacy Policy). We have a data processing agreement with Cloudflare. The legal basis is our legitimate interest in running a secure website (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR). Cloudflare is certified under the EU-US Data Privacy Framework. The site sets no cookies and loads nothing from third parties.

The website sets no cookies and uses no analytics. It loads no fonts, scripts or images from other services.

Contacting us

If you email us, we use your address and message only to answer you, and delete them once your request is settled unless we must keep them by law. The legal basis is Art. 6(1)(b) and (f) GDPR.

Your rights

Under the GDPR you have the right to access, rectification, erasure, restriction of processing, data portability and to object (Art. 15 to 21 GDPR), and to withdraw consent at any time. Because the app keeps your data only on your device and feedback is anonymous, we usually hold nothing we could link to you; deleting the app removes everything on your device. You can also complain to a data protection supervisory authority, for example the one where you live.

Children

Sukun collects no personal data from anyone, including children.

Changes

If the app or this website starts to process data differently, we’ll update this page and the date at the top.
