Privacy Policy
This Privacy Policy explains how Fashih (“we”, “us”, or “our”) collects, uses, and shares information when you use the Fashih mobile application (the “App”). Fashih helps users vocalize Arabic text with tashkeel (harakat) and analyze word roles and iʿrāb.
1. Information We Collect
Depending on how you use the App, we may process the following information:
- Arabic text you submit. Text you type or paste into the App for analysis.
- Images you choose. Photos from your camera or photo library when you ask the App to extract and analyze Arabic text from an image. Images are sent only when you start an image analysis.
- Device identifier. A randomly generated identifier stored on your device and sent with analysis requests so we can apply rate limits and free-usage quotas. This is not your advertising ID and is not used to track you across other apps.
- App language / locale. Used so explanations are returned in your preferred language (for example Indonesian, Arabic, or English).
- Subscription status. Whether you have an active premium entitlement, processed through Apple App Store, Google Play, and RevenueCat.
- Purchase-related identifiers. Store and RevenueCat identifiers needed to restore purchases and verify premium access. We do not receive your full payment card details; payments are handled by Apple or Google.
- On-device history. Successful analysis results may be saved locally on your device so you can reopen them later. This history stays on your device unless you delete it or uninstall the App.
We do not require you to create an account with your name or email address to use the App.
2. How We Use Information
We use the information above to:
- Provide Arabic vocalization and grammar (nahw / iʿrāb) analysis;
- Extract Arabic text from images you submit;
- Enforce free-tier limits and prevent abuse (rate limiting);
- Cache identical analysis requests so we can return results without calling the AI model again;
- Manage and restore premium subscriptions;
- Show optional in-app update notices;
- Operate, maintain, and improve the App and our backend services.
3. AI Processing (Google Gemini)
When you request an analysis, the text or image you submit is sent to our backend (hosted on Cloudflare) and then processed by Google Gemini to generate vocalized text and grammatical explanations.
Do not submit sensitive personal information, passwords, financial data, or images of people if you do not want that content processed by our backend and Google Gemini. Google’s processing is also subject to Google’s own terms and privacy disclosures for its generative AI services.
4. Subscriptions (RevenueCat, Apple, and Google)
Premium subscriptions are sold through the Apple App Store or Google Play and managed with RevenueCat. Those providers may process purchase receipts, product identifiers, and related account or device information according to their own privacy policies. We use this information only to unlock and restore premium features.
5. Caching and Retention
- Server cache. Successful analysis responses may be stored temporarily (for example, about 30 days) so repeated identical requests can be served without calling Google Gemini again. Cached entries are keyed by content hash, model, and language.
- Rate-limit and quota records. Device- or subscription-based counters may be retained as needed to enforce usage limits.
- On-device data. Local analysis history, preferences, and the device identifier remain on your device until you clear app data, delete history in the App, or uninstall the App.
6. How We Share Information
We share information only as needed to operate the App:
- Cloudflare — hosts our API / proxy service;
- Google — processes analysis requests via Gemini;
- RevenueCat — manages subscription status;
- Apple / Google — process payments and provide store services.
We do not sell your personal information. We do not use your submitted Arabic text or images for advertising. We may disclose information if required by law or to protect the security and integrity of the App.
7. Data Security
We use industry-standard measures appropriate to our service, including encrypted transport (HTTPS) between the App and our backend. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
8. Children’s Privacy
The App is not directed to children under 13 (or the minimum age required in your jurisdiction). We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided information through the App, contact us and we will take appropriate steps.
9. Your Choices
- You can use the App without submitting images.
- You can deny camera or photo-library permission in your device settings.
- You can delete analysis history items in the App.
- You can uninstall the App to remove local data stored by Fashih.
- You can manage or cancel subscriptions in your Apple or Google account settings.
10. International Processing
Our service providers may process information in countries other than where you live, including the United States and other locations where Cloudflare, Google, RevenueCat, Apple, or Google Play operate.
11. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The “Last updated” date at the top will change when we do. Continued use of the App after an update means you accept the revised policy.
