Privacy Policy for Tahaqaaq

Last Updated: 23 September 2026

This Privacy Policy explains how Anass Lebkhaiti, operating Tahaqaaq (تحقّق) (“Tahaqaaq”, “we”, “us” or “our”), processes information when you use the Tahaqaaq mobile application and related services.

1. Information you provide

When you create an account or use Hadith verification, we may process your name, email address and profile image from Google Sign-In, plus the text, links, images and voice-input content you submit. We use this information to authenticate you, return verification results, provide support, protect the service and manage subscriptions. Subscription and billing events are handled through Apple App Store/Google Play and RevenueCat.

2. Barakah Break on Android — Accessibility and privacy

On Android, Barakah Break is optional. After an in-app disclosure and your affirmative consent, its Android AccessibilityService observes window-change events and the active app package name solely to measure time in apps you selected and show the break surface when the allowance ends. It does not request screen-content retrieval and does not read messages, passwords or typed text, take screenshots, or record keystrokes.

Accessibility-derived Barakah data is processed and stored locally on your device for this feature. It is not sent to Tahaqaaq servers, sold or shared. The counter records taps only; it does not listen to or verify your dhikr. The daily allowance renews at 3:00 a.m. local device time. You can pause Barakah Break in the App, revoke its Accessibility access in Android Settings, or uninstall the App. Android, battery and manufacturer restrictions may affect background operation.

The Android app does not request Usage Access or a separate “display over other apps” permission. The break surface is provided through the Accessibility overlay. Tahaqaaq is not an accessibility tool for people with disabilities, a security lock or a guarantee that every device or app will be blocked in every condition.

3. How we use information

We use account and submitted content to provide Hadith verification, maintain history and saved results where enabled, communicate with you, prevent abuse, improve reliability and comply with law. We do not use Accessibility-derived Barakah data for advertising, profiling or unrelated analytics.

4. Sharing and service providers

We share information only as needed to operate the requested services, including Google/Firebase for authentication and app infrastructure, the verification backend for submitted content, and RevenueCat plus the relevant app store for subscriptions. Accessibility-derived Barakah data is not sent to these providers by this feature.

5. Retention and security

We retain account and verification information only as needed for the purposes described here, legal obligations and legitimate operational needs. You may request account deletion or contact us to ask about access, correction or deletion. We use reasonable safeguards, but no service can guarantee absolute security.

6. Rights and contact

Depending on your location, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, restrict or export personal information and to withdraw consent. Use the account deletion feature in the App or contact anass@tahaqaaq.com. We do not knowingly market to children under 18.

7. Updates

We may update this Policy when the service or legal requirements change. The date above indicates the latest revision.

Barakah Break on iPhone (version 2.1 pending App Store review)

On iPhone, Barakah Break is optional and uses Apple’s Screen Time frameworks (Family Controls, Device Activity and Managed Settings), not Android Accessibility. After you authorize Screen Time and choose apps, the feature measures the selected apps against a shared daily allowance and places Apple’s shield over those apps when time runs out. Other apps, Home and Settings remain available. The daily allowance renews at 3:00 a.m. device time. Dhikr taps and Barakah settings stay on your device; Tahaqaaq does not read screen contents or send selected-app usage to our servers for advertising. You can pause Barakah Break in the app, revoke Screen Time authorization in iPhone Settings, or delete the app. Available controls and the return-to-app flow can vary by iOS version.
