Privacy Policy — Simple Quran

Who we are

Simple Quran is made by Dumb Lemon, an independent software studio (“we”). This policy explains what the app does with your information. Questions about it go to hello@dumblemon.com.

Summary

  • No account, no analytics, no ads, and no tracking.
  • Your progress and recordings stay on your iPhone.
  • The only thing the app fetches is recitation audio.

We don’t sell or share your data, and we don’t use it for advertising. We don’t receive your data at all.

How longWe don’t receive these requests. The audio service handles them under its own terms.

Third-party services

These services receive only what’s listed here, and only to provide the feature described. We have no agreement with them, and we don’t control how they handle requests, so their own terms apply. We chose services that need no account or identifier from you.

Permissions

Microphone
Only when you record your recitation. Recordings stay on your device.
To turn it offSettings → Privacy & Security → Microphone.

The app asks before using any of these, and you can change your mind at any time. Everything else keeps working without them.

Keeping and deleting your data

  • Remove downloaded recitation: Settings → Remove downloaded recitation.
  • Delete recordings: per passage, or Settings → Delete all recordings.
  • Delete everything: remove the app. All of its data is removed with it.

Because we never receive your data, there’s nothing for us to keep or delete on our side. If you have a question about your data, email us and we’ll help.

Security

  • There are no accounts and no servers of ours involved, so there is no user database to protect or lose.
  • Data on your phone is protected by your device’s own security, such as its passcode and encryption.
  • Requests to outside services are made over encrypted connections (HTTPS).

Children

The app doesn’t collect personal information from anyone, including children under 13. It has no accounts, chat, ads, or tracking.

Changes to this policy

If our practices change, we’ll update this page and its effective date before the new version of the app is released. We won’t start collecting new data without updating this policy first. This version is effective October 25, 2026.
