1. Introduction

At IlmPro, we are committed to protecting the privacy and safety of children who use our "Qur’an for Little Hearts" mobile application. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, protect, and handle information when you and your child use our Islamic educational app designed for toddlers and young children aged 2-6 years.

We understand the importance of protecting children's privacy in digital environments and comply with applicable privacy laws, including the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA) in the United States and the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) in Europe. Our app is designed with privacy by design principles, ensuring minimal data collection and maximum protection for young users.

1.1. Definitions

• App refers to "Qur’an for Little Hearts," the Islamic educational mobile application developed by IlmPro for teaching Arabic and Qur’an to children aged 2-6 years.

• Parent/Guardian refers to the adult responsible for the child using the app, who provides consent for the child's use of the application.

• Personal Information refers to any information that identifies, relates to, or could reasonably be linked with a particular child or parent, including but not limited to names, email addresses, and device identifiers.

• Child refers to a user under 13 years of age in the United States, under 16 years of age in the European Union, or the relevant age of digital consent in other jurisdictions.

• Usage Data refers to technical information automatically collected when the app is used, such as device type, operating system, app usage patterns, and performance data.

• Educational Content refers to the Islamic educational materials provided in the app, including Qur’anic verses, Arabic alphabet, pronunciation audio, and learning progress data.

2. What Data We Collect

We believe in minimal data collection and only gather information that is necessary to provide our Islamic educational services effectively. Our app is designed to function primarily offline, reducing the need for extensive data collection while ensuring your child can learn Arabic and Qur’an anywhere.

2.1. Information provided by parents

We may collect limited information from parents when they choose to create an account or contact our support team. This information is collected with explicit parental consent and is used solely to improve the educational experience and provide support services. We do not collect personal information directly from children.

• Email address (optional, only when creating an account for progress syncing across devices or when contacting support)

• Child's first name or nickname (optional, used only to personalize the learning experience within the app)

• Age range of the child (optional, used to provide age-appropriate content and learning recommendations)

• Support inquiries and feedback (when parents contact us at [email protected] for technical assistance or suggestions)

2.2. Learning progress data (stored locally)

The app automatically tracks your child's learning progress to provide personalized educational experiences and help parents monitor their child's development. This data is stored locally on your device and is not transmitted to our servers unless you specifically choose to create an account for cross-device syncing.

2.3. Technical information

We may collect limited technical information to ensure the app functions properly and to improve our services. This information cannot be used to personally identify your child and is collected in compliance with children's privacy laws.

• Device type and operating system version (to ensure compatibility and optimize performance)

• App crash reports and error logs (to identify and fix technical issues, with no personal information included)

2.4. What we do NOT collect

We want parents to know what information we explicitly do NOT collect from children: location data, photos, audio recordings of children's voices, social media information, browsing history, contacts, or any personal information that could be used to contact or identify your child outside of the app environment.

3. How We Use Information

We use the limited information we collect solely to provide and improve our Islamic educational services. Our primary goal is to create a safe, effective learning environment for children to learn Arabic and Qur’an while respecting their privacy and maintaining parental control over their child's digital learning experience.

• To provide personalized learning experiences appropriate for your child's age and learning progress in Arabic and Qur’anic studies

• To save and sync learning progress across devices (only when parents create an account and explicitly consent)

We do not use any collected information for advertising, marketing to children, or creating profiles for commercial purposes. We do not share, sell, or rent any child's information to third parties for any commercial purpose.

Parents retain full control over their child's data and can request deletion of any information at any time by contacting us at [email protected].

4. Data Security and Protection

We take the security of children's information very seriously and implement appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect any data we collect. Our app is designed with security by default, ensuring that children's learning data is protected at all times.

4.1. Technical safeguards

We employ industry-standard security measures including data encryption, secure data transmission (when required), and regular security audits. Most of the app's functionality works offline, reducing security risks associated with data transmission and online storage.

Learning progress is primarily stored locally on your device, giving parents complete control over their child's educational data. When parents choose to sync data across devices, we use encrypted connections and secure storage practices.

We regularly update our security practices and promptly address any security vulnerabilities that may be discovered.

5. Parental Rights and Control

• Parents have the right to review any personal information we have collected from their child and can request corrections if the information is inaccurate.

• Parents can request deletion of their child's personal information at any time by contacting us at [email protected]. We will promptly delete the information from our systems.

Parents can control what information their child shares by managing app settings and account preferences. The app is designed to require minimal personal information and functions primarily without any personal data collection. Parents can use the app anonymously and still access all educational features.

5.1. How to exercise these rights

To exercise any of these rights, parents can contact us directly at [email protected]. We will respond to all requests within 30 days and provide clear information about what data (if any) we have and how it has been used. We may ask for verification of parental status to protect children's privacy.

6. Children's Privacy Protection

Our app is specifically designed for children, and we take extra precautions to protect their privacy. We comply with COPPA (Children's Online Privacy Protection Act) in the United States, GDPR requirements for children in Europe, and similar privacy laws in other jurisdictions where our app is available.

We do not knowingly collect personal information from children without verified parental consent. The app is designed to function without requiring children to provide any personal information. We do not use behavioral advertising, collect location information, or enable children to communicate with strangers.

If we discover that we have collected personal information from a child without proper parental consent, we will immediately delete that information from our systems. Parents are encouraged to monitor their children's use of digital devices and apps to ensure safe and appropriate usage.

We provide educational content that is culturally appropriate and aligned with Islamic values, ensuring that children receive wholesome, faith-based learning experiences.

7. Data Sharing and Third Parties

We do not sell, rent, or share children's personal information with third parties for commercial purposes. We do not use third-party advertising networks, analytics services that track children, or social media integrations that could compromise children's privacy. Our app is designed to function independently without requiring data sharing with external services.

8. International Data Transfers

Our app primarily operates locally on your device, minimizing the need for international data transfers. When data transfer is necessary (such as for customer support or account syncing), we ensure appropriate safeguards are in place to protect children's information in accordance with applicable data protection laws.

For users in the European Union, we comply with GDPR requirements for international transfers and ensure that any data processing outside the EU maintains the same level of protection as required within the EU.

9. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices, legal requirements, or app features. When we make material changes that affect children's privacy, we will notify parents through the app or via email (if contact information has been provided).

• We will provide at least 30 days' notice before any material changes take effect, giving parents time to review the new policy and make informed decisions about their child's continued use of the app.

• Continued use of the app after changes become effective constitutes acceptance of the updated Privacy Policy.

We encourage parents to review this Privacy Policy periodically to stay informed about how we protect their child's privacy. The most current version will always be available within the app and on our website.
