Privacy Policy

Your privacy is important to us. This policy explains what we collect, why, and how we keep it safe.

Last updated: October 28, 2026

1. Information We Collect

We collect minimal personal information to provide and sync your audiobook listening progress across devices. This includes:

  • Account Information: When you create an account to sync your library, we collect your name, email address, and password (securely hashed). If you choose to sign in with Google, we receive your name and email address from Google instead of a password.
  • Library Progress Data: We track your book bookmark positions, downloads, favorites, and playback history to allow you to resume listening seamlessly.
  • Communication Data: We collect details from feedback emails and form requests you send us to help improve the platform.
  • Technical Usage: We collect crash reports and basic device information (such as operating system and app version) through Firebase Crashlytics to keep the app stable.
  • Notifications: If you allow notifications, Firebase Cloud Messaging assigns your device a token so we can send announcements about new audiobooks.

You can use the app as a guest without an account. In that case your progress is stored only on your device.

2. Data Security

We take data protection seriously. Your information is safeguarded through:

  • Encryption: All communication between the mobile app and our servers is encrypted using SSL/TLS protocols (HTTPS).
  • Secure Passwords: We use industry-standard hashing algorithms (such as bcrypt) for password storage so they can never be read in plain text.
  • No Third-Party Advertising: Since Wilayat Waves is completely free and ad-free, we do not utilize ad networks or track your activities for commercial marketing.

3. How We Use Data

Your details are used solely to run and improve the app: syncing listening history, addressing support requests, fixing crashes, sending optional notifications, and implementing suggestions for new Shia audiobook content.

4. Data Sharing & Third Parties

We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal data. We only share data with essential service providers that run our platform, bound by strict privacy requirements:

  • Our hosting provider, which stores our servers and database.
  • Google Firebase (Crashlytics and Cloud Messaging), for crash reports and push notifications.
  • Google Sign-In, only if you choose to sign in with your Google account.

5. Your Privacy Rights

You have the right to request access to, correction of, or permanent deletion of your personal data at any time. You can delete your account on our account deletion page or request deletion by emailing us directly.

6. Cookies

Our landing page uses basic cookies to remember layout preferences. We do not use third-party tracking or behavioral profiling cookies.
