Privacy Policy

Your trust is an amanah. This policy explains what ImanLock collects, how it is used, and the choices you have.

Last updated: June 10, 2026

What ImanLock Does

ImanLock is a mindfulness and digital wellbeing app for Muslims. It helps you pause before opening distracting apps by guiding you through a moment of remembrance — checking in with your mood, reflecting on a verse of the Quran, and making dua — before your selected apps unlock.

Our goal is to help you build a healthier, more intentional relationship with your phone while strengthening your connection with Allah.

Information We Collect

We aim to collect as little personal information as possible.

  • Email address — only if you join our waitlist or contact our support team. This is used to communicate with you and for nothing else.
  • App usage & preferences — settings such as which apps you choose to lock, your streaks, moods, and reflection history. Where possible, this is stored locally on your device.
  • Analytics data — anonymized, aggregated usage events (see “Analytics” below).
  • Device & technical information — device model, operating system version, and crash diagnostics used to keep the app stable.

Email Addresses & Waitlist

If you join the ImanLock waitlist or email us, we store your email address solely to send you product updates, respond to your inquiry, or notify you when the app becomes available in your region. You can ask us to delete your email at any time by contacting support@imanlock.app. We do not send marketing from third parties.

Analytics Usage

We use privacy-respecting analytics to understand how features are used and to improve the app. Analytics events are aggregated and anonymized — they are not used to identify you personally. We do not use analytics to track you across other apps or websites.

Device Permissions

ImanLock only requests permissions needed for core functionality, and explains each one before requesting it:

  • Accessibility Service — to detect when a locked app is opened so the reflection screen can appear (see disclosure below).
  • Usage access / display over other apps — to show the ImanLock lock screen on top of distracting apps.
  • Notifications — for Salah reminders, dhikr prompts, and streak nudges. Optional and can be disabled.

Accessibility Service Disclosure

ImanLock uses Android's Accessibility Service to provide its core feature: gently intervening before you open a distracting app.

  • The Accessibility Service is used only to detect which app is currently in the foreground so ImanLock can display the remembrance/lock screen for apps you have chosen to lock.
  • ImanLock does not read, collect, log, or transmit the content of your screen, your keystrokes, your messages, or any personal data accessed via the Accessibility Service.
  • All processing related to the Accessibility Service happens locally on your device.
  • You may disable the Accessibility Service at any time in your device settings, which will turn off app blocking.

How App Blocking Works

When you choose apps to lock, ImanLock detects when one of those apps is launched and presents a full-screen reflection before granting access. This blocking happens entirely on your device. ImanLock does not see what you do inside those apps — only that one of your selected apps was opened, so it can show the lock screen.

How We Use Your Information

  • To provide and maintain the app's core features.
  • To personalize your reflections, duas, and reminders.
  • To respond to your support requests.
  • To diagnose crashes and improve performance and reliability.

Data Sharing — We Never Sell Your Data

ImanLock does not sell, rent, or trade your personal data to anyone. We do not share your personal information with advertisers. Limited data may be processed by trusted service providers (such as analytics or crash-reporting tools) strictly to operate the app, under agreements that require them to protect your data.

Data Retention

We keep personal information only as long as necessary to provide the service or as required by law. You can request deletion of your data (such as your email) at any time.

Security

We use reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect your information. However, no method of transmission or storage is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

Children's Privacy

ImanLock is not directed to children under 13 (or the minimum age required in your country). We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided us data, please contact us and we will delete it.

Your Rights

Depending on your region, you may have the right to access, correct, or delete your personal data, and to object to or restrict certain processing. To exercise these rights, email us at support@imanlock.app.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Material changes will be reflected by updating the “Last updated” date above and, where appropriate, through an in-app notice.
