Privacy Policy

Effective Date: September 18, 2026

This Privacy Policy explains how FindDeen Guides (“we,” “us,” or “our”) collects, uses, and protects information when you use our website at finddeenguides.com, including our Qibla Finder, Prayer Times, and Islamic Calendar tools (together, the “Services”). By using our Services, you agree to the practices described in this policy.

Information We Collect

Location information. To show your qibla direction, local prayer times, or moon-sighting-based Islamic date, our tools need to know your approximate or exact location. If you allow browser or device location access, we use your GPS coordinates. If you do not, we estimate your location from your IP address, or you can enter a city manually. Location data used to calculate results is processed in your browser and is not linked to your identity or stored on our servers beyond what is needed to serve the page.

Settings and preferences. Choices you make, such as your preferred calculation method, Asr school, region, or the ±1 day adjustment on the Islamic Calendar tool, are saved in your browser’s local storage so you do not have to reselect them on each visit. These are stored on your device, not on our servers.

Usage data. Like most websites, we automatically collect standard technical information when you visit, including browser type, device type, pages viewed, and approximate location derived from IP address. This is collected through analytics tools such as Google Analytics.

Contact form information. If you contact us directly, we collect the name, email address, and message you provide, only to respond to your inquiry.

We do not require account creation to use any of our tools, and we do not knowingly collect any information beyond what is described above.

  • Operate and improve our tools
  • Understand how visitors use the site so we can fix problems and prioritize new features

Third-Party Services

We work with third-party services to operate and fund this site, including Google Analytics for traffic and usage analysis, and Google AdSense or similar advertising networks to display ads. These third parties may use cookies, web beacons, or similar technologies to collect information about your visits to this and other websites in order to provide advertisements about goods and services that may interest you.

You can opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google’s Ads Settings at adssettings.google.com, or www.aboutads.info to opt out of participating vendors generally.

We do not sell your personal information. We share information only with the service providers described above, each of which processes data under its own privacy policy, and when required by law.

Children’s Privacy

Our Services are not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us so we can remove it.

If you are located in the European Economic Area or United Kingdom, you have the right to access, correct, delete, or restrict use of your personal data, and to object to certain processing, under the General Data Protection Regulation.

If you are a California resident, you have the right under the California Consumer Privacy Act to know what personal information we collect, request its deletion, and opt out of its sale. We do not sell personal information.

Data Security

We use reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect the information we handle. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

International Data Transfers

Our Services may be accessed from anywhere in the world, and the third-party services we use may process data in countries other than your own.
