Privacy Policy

Last updated: 2026-05-20

الكتاب المقدس بالعربي Arabic Bible is a Bible reading app with bookmarking, search, notes, highlighting, reading progress, text settings, image sharing, local backup, and optional cloud backup features.

Data Collection

The app can be used without creating an account. If you do not sign in or use cloud backup, your bookmarks, highlights, notes, settings, and reading progress are stored locally on your device.

If you choose to use cloud sync, the app uses Firebase Authentication and Cloud Firestore to create and manage your account and store a backup of your app data.

Data We May Collect If You Use Cloud Sync

• Email address
• Firebase user ID
• Bookmarks
• Verse highlights
• Substring highlights
• Notes
• App settings
• Reading progress

Cloud Backup

Cloud sync is optional. If enabled, your app data is uploaded to Firebase Cloud Firestore under your signed-in account so you can restore it on the same or another device.

Data Sharing

We do not sell your personal information. We do not use advertising or third-party analytics. Cloud sync data is processed by Google Firebase services only to provide authentication, backup, and restore functionality.

Data Security

Data transmitted to Firebase services is encrypted in transit using HTTPS/TLS.

Account and Data Deletion

If you are signed in, you can delete your cloud account and cloud backup data from within the app.

Account and data deletion URL provided (https://forms.gle/x33er7n5jpVeqKqv9).

Deleting your cloud account removes your Firebase Authentication account and your cloud backup data stored in Firestore, including bookmarks, highlights, notes, settings, and reading progress.

Deleting your cloud account does not automatically delete local data stored on your device. To remove local data, clear the app data from Android settings or uninstall the app.

Permissions

The app does not request sensitive permissions such as location, contacts, camera, or microphone. Storage/media-related access may be requested only for saving verse images, exporting a local backup file, or importing a backup file.

Children’s Privacy

This app is designed to be appropriate for users of all ages. However, it is not specifically directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal data from children.

Policy Updates

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Any changes will be reflected by updating the “Last updated” date at the top of this page.
