Privacy

What leaves your device, and what does not. Every calculation runs in your own browser; one request can leave, and only if you press the button that makes it.

Your name, your mother’s name, your dates and your totals never leave your device. One thing can: the name of a town, and only when you have typed one we do not already hold. Nothing else, ever.

What we collect

Nothing you type, and nothing that identifies you. There is no account to create and no form that submits anywhere — including the one on the appointment page, which writes a message in your own mail app and sends nothing itself. We do not know who you are and have no way to find out.

We do count visits. Which pages are opened, where the link came from, and which country — never who. The section on cookies and tracking below says exactly what that involves and what it cannot see.

What happens to the names and dates you enter

Every calculation runs inside your own browser. Your name, your mother’s name, your date and time of birth, your totals and any question you type are never transmitted. We could not read them if we wanted to. Matching a total against the Qur’an happens on your device too — the index of all 6,236 verses is part of the page.

They are held in your browser’s session storage so that a refresh does not lose your work, and they are cleared when you press Clear everything. They are also meant to go when the tab closes — but browsers are allowed to restore a tab along with its storage, and both iPhone and Android browsers do, so we cannot promise it. On a shared phone, press Clear everything before you put it down.

Two things outlive that, and neither is about you: a flag recording that you dismissed the note about typing in Urdu, and — if you have chosen one — whether you prefer the light or dark appearance. Both hold nothing you typed.

When you write to us

If you write to us — at the appointment address or any other — we hold what you chose to send: your email address, your name if you gave it, and whatever your message says. You decided what went in it, and you can see it in your own sent folder.

We hold it to answer you, and for no other purpose. We do not add you to anything, we do not build a profile from it, and we never pass it to anyone else. The lawful basis is legitimate interests — you wrote to us, and answering is the whole point.

Correspondence is kept while the matter is live and then deleted, and in any case no longer than two years. Mail for this domain is handled by Apple as part of iCloud, under their terms.

You can ask what we hold about you, ask for it to be corrected, or ask us to delete it — write to [email protected] and we will answer within a month. If you think we have got it wrong you can complain to the Information Commissioner at ico.org.uk.

Looking up a town

The planetary hours are measured between a real place’s own sunrise and sunset, so they need coordinates. The app carries a short built-in list of cities, and for any town on it nothing is sent anywhere.

If you type a town that is not on that list, the app offers to ask a public geographic directory — geocoding-api.open-meteo.com — for its coordinates. It only happens if you press the button. Nothing is sent while you type, and declining costs you nothing: you can pick a town from the list, or type coordinates directly.

If you do press it, the town text is the only thing we send — but the request carries what any web request carries: your device’s IP address, the address of this site, and the time. We cannot remove those, and we never add anything else. No cookie, no account, no referrer, and never your name, your mother’s name, a date or a total. Results are labelled found online so you can always see when it happened, and asking twice for the same town does not send twice.

Use my location is optional and never automatic. Your browser will ask your permission first, the coordinates stay on your device, and declining costs you nothing — typing the town does the same job.

Cookies and tracking

No cookies. Nothing about you is stored on your device by us for longer than the tab lives, and nothing identifies you.

There is one measurement script, from Cloudflare, and it is there so we can tell whether anybody is reading the site. It records which page was opened, which link or search sent you, your country, and which browser and screen size you used. It sets no cookie, stores nothing on your device, gives you no identifier, and cannot follow you to any other website — which is why there is no consent banner to click.

What it does not record is anything you type. Your name, your mother’s name, your dates and your totals never appear in the address bar, so there is nothing of yours for it to send. That is a property of how the calculator is built rather than a promise about how we behave, and there is a test that fails if it ever stops being true.

No advertising network, no fingerprinting, no profile. Apart from that script and the town lookup described above, the page makes no requests to any third party — the fonts and all the code are part of the page itself. Three things are kept on your device and nowhere else: what you have typed, for as long as the tab lives; the flag recording that you dismissed the Urdu note; and your appearance preference, if you set one.

Donations

The amounts on the support panel are ordinary links. Nothing is sent anywhere until you follow one, and following one takes you to Stripe, who handle the payment on their own pages under their own privacy terms. We never see, receive or store your card details.

Nothing you have typed into the calculator — your name, your mother’s name, your dates or your totals — is attached to a payment or sent with it. The two are completely separate. After Stripe’s pages finish you are returned here with nothing but a marker in the address bar, which lets this page say thank you and is removed as soon as it is read. Whether the payment itself went through is between you and Stripe — their receipt, not our marker, is the record of it.

A monthly gift can be stopped at any time. If Stripe’s receipt carries a link to manage it, that is the quickest route; if it does not, write to [email protected] and it will be stopped for you. We hold no record of it ourselves, so we cannot stop one you have not told us about.

Children

The site collects no personal data from anyone, of any age.

Who is responsible

For the little that is processed — a town name you chose to type, and the aggregate measurement described above — the data controller is Aasim Saeed, Essex, United Kingdom. Write to [email protected] about anything on this page.

Changes

If this ever changes — if a feature is added that genuinely needs a server — it will be said plainly here and on the page itself before it takes effect, not buried in an update to this document.
