Effective date: 17 July 2026
DUA ("the app") is developed by Evolved Gorillas LLC. We built DUA so that it works without accounts and without collecting personal data. This policy explains what little data the app handles and where it goes.
Your settings (city, calculation method, name, avatar), prayer statistics, XP, streaks, Quran reading progress, and your AI chat history are stored locally on your device. They are never uploaded to our servers. Deleting the app deletes this data.
When you send a message to the DUA AI assistant, the text of your conversation is transmitted to our server and forwarded to OpenAI to generate a response. We do not store your messages on our servers and we do not read them. A randomly generated, anonymous device identifier is sent with each request solely to enforce the daily message limit; it is not linked to your identity.
If you allow location access, your coordinates are used on your device to find the nearest city, calculate prayer times, and point the Qibla compass. Your location is never sent to our servers.
Quran text, translations, and audio recitations are streamed from third-party services (alquran.cloud and cdn.islamic.network). Like any internet request, these services receive your IP address when content is downloaded.
If you use the in-app feedback form, the name, subject, and message you enter are delivered to us via Formspree so we can respond to you. Nothing is sent unless you submit the form.
Prayer notifications are scheduled locally on your device. No notification data leaves your device.
The app is suitable for all ages and collects no personal information from anyone, including children.
If this policy changes, the updated version will be published at this address with a new effective date.
