This Privacy Policy explains how Araqick collects, uses, shares, stores, and protects information when you use the Araqick Android application, website, and related services.
Last updated: September 2, 2026
Araqick is an Arabic learning service. In this Policy, “Araqick,” “we,” “us,” and “our” refer to the operator of the Araqick application and website. This Policy applies to the Araqick Android application, araqick.com, and the support and account-deletion services associated with them.
This Policy describes the current functionality of Araqick. Some features can be used without signing in, while account and cloud-sync features require authentication.
Araqick is intended exclusively for individuals who are 18 years of age or older. Individuals under 18 are not permitted to use Araqick. Araqick is not designed or marketed as a children's service, and we do not knowingly seek personal information from anyone under 18.
Araqick does not currently request a date of birth or use identity documents or another technical age-verification system to verify every user's age. The age requirement is a condition of eligibility under the Araqick Terms of Service; it is not a claim that underage access can always be detected or prevented technically.
If we learn that personal information is associated with a person under 18, we may restrict or close the account and take appropriate steps to delete the information, subject to applicable law and any limited retention requirements. A parent or legal guardian who believes that a person under 18 has provided information to Araqick may contact us at support@araqick.com.
When you choose Continue with Google, Araqick and Firebase Authentication process information needed to authenticate you. Depending on the information available from your Google account, this includes your name, email address, profile-photo URL, a Firebase user identifier, authentication tokens, sign-in provider, and account creation or sign-in timestamps. Araqick does not receive your Google Account password.
When you open the Account screen, Araqick may retrieve your profile image from the HTTPS address supplied by Google. The image host or delivery provider receives the ordinary network information needed to serve that request, such as your IP address, device or user-agent information, and the request time.
A limited reviewer-access system also supports authorized test accounts and reviewer entitlements. For those accounts, Firebase Authentication handles email-and-password credentials, and Araqick stores a reviewer access status linked to the Firebase user identifier. This is not a general-user profile feature.
If you sign in, Araqick stores and synchronizes learning progress in Cloud Firestore. This includes lesson completion and star data, progress schema and reset information, update timestamps, and, where applicable, reviewer learning progress. Araqick uses this information to restore and synchronize progress across eligible app sessions.
Araqick stores app information locally, including lesson progress and section unlocks, settings such as theme, accent, sound, and haptics, bookmarks, review activity, Fruits, Gems, Growth and related timers or rewards, rewarded-ad limits and cooldowns, in-app notification state, update prompts, and progress-sync metadata. Some Firebase data may also be cached locally to support offline use.
Android backup or device-transfer features may back up or restore some local preferences. Clearing app data or uninstalling usually removes locally held data from the device, but a later restore from an Android backup may restore eligible preferences.
The Android application uses the Google Mobile Ads SDK and Google's User Messaging Platform (UMP) SDK. It does not include Google Analytics for Firebase. These advertising and consent services may automatically process app-instance or installation identifiers, advertising or app-set identifiers, IP address and IP-derived approximate location, device and operating-system information, app version, language, interactions with the app or advertisements, and diagnostic or performance information.
UMP also processes the information necessary to determine which privacy message or privacy-options entry point applies and to store or communicate the advertising privacy choices you make. The exact message, choices, purposes, and advertising partners shown can depend on your region and Araqick's current AdMob Privacy & messaging configuration.
Google Mobile Ads uses this information for advertising, analytics, and fraud prevention, including delivering and measuring ads, reporting, security, and detecting invalid traffic. Araqick currently offers optional rewarded-ad interactions.
Firebase App Check and Google Play Integrity process app, account, licence, device-integrity, and related attestation signals to help determine whether requests come from a genuine Araqick installation and to prevent abuse. Firebase and Google services may also process IP addresses, user agents, request metadata, identifiers, and security logs when their services are accessed.
When the account-deletion Cloud Function is invoked, Firebase processes the function name, caller IP address, Firebase account and token context, and App Check token. The Cloud Functions client may also process a Firebase Cloud Messaging registration token even though Araqick does not currently provide push notifications.
If you email Araqick, we process your email address, message, and any information you choose to include. A bug-report email can optionally include your Android version, device manufacturer and model, and Araqick app version. Do not include passwords, authentication codes, payment details, or other information that is not necessary for your request.
The Araqick website does not currently set Araqick advertising cookies, use browser local storage, or run an Araqick web-analytics service. Firebase Hosting and its delivery infrastructure may nevertheless process IP addresses, browser and device information, requested URLs, timestamps, and security or delivery logs when a page is requested.
The app periodically requests a developer announcement file hosted by GitHub. That request can disclose ordinary network information, including your IP address, user agent, and request time, to GitHub and its delivery providers. Araqick does not send your Firebase account identifier in that announcement request.
The current Araqick application does not enable purchases or subscriptions and does not integrate Google Play Billing. Araqick therefore does not currently collect purchase or subscription records through the app. This Policy will be updated before payment processing is introduced.
Araqick directly requests internet and network-state access so it can authenticate accounts, synchronize progress, request advertisements and announcements, check for app updates, and use Firebase services. Google libraries included in the application also declare permissions for advertising identifiers, Android Advertising Services APIs such as ad ID, attribution, and topics, as well as install attribution, background network operation, and credential security.
Araqick does not directly request access to precise or background location, camera, microphone, contacts, calendars, call logs, SMS, photos, media, or general device storage. Network services can still infer an approximate location from an IP address; this is different from accessing GPS or precise device location.
We use information to:
Google Mobile Ads may use or share identifiers, approximate location derived from IP address, app interactions, ad interactions, and diagnostic data to serve and measure advertisements and to prevent invalid traffic and fraud. The ads shown are not necessarily “adult-targeted” merely because Araqick is restricted to users aged 18 and over.
Araqick uses Google's User Messaging Platform (UMP) SDK together with AdMob Privacy & messaging to obtain and manage advertising privacy choices where required. UMP determines which configured privacy message is applicable based on factors such as your region and device, and reports whether advertising requests may be made.
For users in the European Economic Area (EEA), the United Kingdom, and Switzerland, Araqick may display a European regulations message that explains advertising data uses and asks for applicable consent choices, including consent for device storage or access and for the collection, sharing, and use of personal data for advertising purposes where required. Depending on the current message configuration, you may be able to consent, decline consent, or manage individual options.
For users in applicable U.S. states, Araqick may make a U.S. state regulations privacy-options message available so that users can exercise applicable choices concerning ads personalization and certain advertising data uses or disclosures. The exact rights and choices shown depend on the law applicable to the user and Google's current message configuration.
Araqick checks UMP's current ad-request state before enabling Google Mobile Ads. A previously saved and still-valid privacy choice may be used by UMP on a later app session. When UMP reports that advertising requests are not permitted, Araqick does not request a rewarded ad.
When UMP indicates that a privacy-options entry point is required, Araqick provides a Privacy choices option in the app's Settings screen. You can use it to reopen the applicable Google privacy-options form and review or change available advertising choices.
UMP manages advertising-related privacy choices only. It does not control Firebase Authentication, Cloud Firestore, Cloud Functions, Firebase App Check, or other services required to provide and secure Araqick.
Advertising and related analytics or measurement may be subject to consent, objection, restriction, or opt-out rights in your jurisdiction. You may also use Android and Google settings to manage advertising personalization or reset or delete the advertising identifier where supported.
Araqick currently provides an in-app notification centre for learning and motivational content. It does not currently request Android notification permission or use Firebase Cloud Messaging for push notifications. Notification content and read status are stored locally. The app may retrieve a developer announcement from GitHub as described above.
Where applicable law requires a legal basis, the basis depends on the information and purpose. We may process information as necessary to provide the service you request and perform our agreement with you; for legitimate interests such as securing, maintaining, and improving Araqick where those interests are not overridden by your rights; with consent when it has been requested and given, including for advertising personalization or device storage/access where required; and to comply with legal obligations or protect legal rights.
You may withdraw consent at any time where processing is based on consent, without affecting earlier lawful processing. Where UMP provides the applicable consent mechanism, use the in-app Privacy choices option when available to revisit those advertising choices.
Araqick does not sell personal information for money. We disclose or make information available in the following circumstances:
Some privacy laws use “sale” or “sharing” more broadly than an exchange for money. If those laws apply to advertising-related disclosures, you may have additional opt-out rights described in the “Your Choices and Rights” section and, where applicable, through Araqick's in-app Privacy choices entry point.
The principal third-party services used by Araqick are Google Sign-In and Credential Manager, Firebase Authentication, Cloud Firestore, Cloud Functions, Firebase App Check, Google Mobile Ads, Google User Messaging Platform, Google Play Integrity, Google Play in-app updates, Firebase Hosting, and GitHub-hosted announcements.
These providers process information under their own terms, privacy notices, and data-retention practices. You can learn more in the Google Privacy Policy, Firebase Privacy and Security information, and GitHub's Privacy Statement.
Links or services controlled by another provider are governed by that provider's privacy practices. This Policy does not control how an independent third party handles information outside Araqick's direction.
Account and progress information is stored through Google Firebase infrastructure. Araqick's callable account-deletion service is configured in the Mumbai, India region. Other Google, Firebase, advertising, consent-management, hosting, email, and GitHub systems may process information in India, the United States, or other countries where they or their service providers operate. Those countries may have data-protection laws different from those in your location.
Where required, international processing is subject to contractual, technical, or other safeguards provided by Araqick or the relevant service provider.
We retain account information and synchronized learning progress while your account is active and for as long as reasonably necessary to provide the service, resolve requests, secure Araqick, enforce our agreements, and meet legal obligations. Support and deletion emails are retained only for as long as reasonably necessary to handle and document the request and meet applicable obligations.
Following in-app account deletion, a limited deletion-job record linked to the Firebase user identifier may remain for up to seven days so the system can verify completion or retry a failed deletion. It contains operational status and timing information rather than the deleted account profile. It is then scheduled for deletion.
Local app information generally remains until you clear app data or uninstall Araqick, subject to Android backup and restore behavior. Google UMP privacy choices and related consent records are retained according to the applicable Google/AdMob configuration and provider retention practices. Service-provider security, authentication, advertising and related analytics, and hosting logs are retained under the provider's applicable retention schedules. Some information may be retained longer where required by law or reasonably necessary for security, fraud prevention, dispute resolution, or the establishment, exercise, or defence of legal claims.
You can permanently delete your Araqick account from the app after reauthenticating with the same Google account. If you cannot access the app, submit a verified request through the Araqick account deletion page.
The deletion process removes the Firebase Authentication account, the account profile held in that service, synchronized Cloud Firestore learning progress beneath the user identifier, and any linked reviewer entitlement. A limited deletion-job record may remain for up to seven days as described above. Provider logs or backups may also remain for their normal limited retention periods or where legally required.
Account deletion does not delete your Google Account. It also does not remotely erase anonymous guest data, settings, rewards, caches, or other information that remains only on a device. To remove all local Araqick data, clear the app's storage in Android settings and uninstall the app, bearing in mind that eligible preferences may later be restored from Android backup.
You can use available guest features without signing in, sign out, manage some app settings, clear local app data through Android, manage advertising settings through your device or Google account, and delete your Araqick account. You can correct name or profile information supplied by Google through the relevant Google Account settings.
When Google UMP reports that an advertising privacy-options entry point is required, Araqick shows Privacy choices in Settings. You can use that option to review or change the advertising privacy choices available for your region. European users may be able to change consent choices, and users in applicable U.S. states may be able to exercise advertising opt-out choices through the relevant Google message.
Depending on where you live, applicable law may give you rights to request access to, correction of, or deletion of personal information; obtain a portable copy; restrict or object to processing; withdraw consent; opt out of certain advertising disclosures; or complain to a competent data-protection authority. These rights may be subject to legal exceptions and identity verification.
To exercise a privacy right not available directly in the app, email support@araqick.com. We will use information reasonably necessary to verify and respond to your request. We will not ask you to provide your Google password or an authentication code.
Araqick uses safeguards intended to protect information, including encrypted network transport provided by Google and Firebase, Firebase Authentication, access-controlled Firestore rules, server-side account deletion, Firebase App Check, and Google Play Integrity checks. Access to operational systems should be limited to people who need it for authorized purposes.
No method of transmission, storage, or security is completely secure. We cannot guarantee that information will never be accessed, altered, lost, or disclosed without authorization.
We may update this Policy when Araqick's features, data practices, providers, privacy-message configuration, or legal obligations change. We will post the revised Policy at this URL and update the “Last updated” date. Where required, we will provide additional notice or request consent before a material change takes effect.
