Privacy policy

Last updated 28 October 2026

Hifz Daily helps you memorise and revise the Quran. Hifz Maktab lets hifz schools and teachers follow their students’ Hifz Daily. Both, and this website at hifz.day, are run by Qaswa Ventures in Perth, Western Australia (“we”, “us”).

Your hifz is personal, and we treat it that way. This policy explains what we collect, why, who helps us run the service, and what you can ask of us. We handle personal information in line with the Australian Privacy Principles in the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth).

The short version

What we collect

When you register interest

Your name, email, who’s memorising (you, your children or your students) and anything you choose to tell us. For a madrasah, also its name, your role and roughly how many students memorise with you.

Your account

Your email, your name, and a password (stored only in a scrambled form we can’t read).

Your hifz

The information Hifz Daily runs on:

Your approximate location (optional)

If you allow it, the app saves where you are, rounded to about 10 km, and your time zone. We use it only to time reminders around salah. You can say no, and reminders still come at set times.

Notifications and emails

If you turn on notifications, we keep the address your browser gives us for sending them. For emails, we keep your time zone, whether you’ve turned emails off, and a record of which emails we’ve sent you.

On your device

Hifz Daily saves a copy of your plan on your phone, tablet or computer so it works offline for up to three days. This stays on your device and syncs with your account when you’re back online.

What we don’t collect

We don’t use analytics or advertising trackers, and we don’t follow you around other websites.

Hifzy and your voice

Hifzy is in beta. When you tap Start, your microphone is streamed live to our recitation checker, which follows along as you recite. The audio is not recorded or kept, by the app or by the checker.

What we keep is the result: which pages you recited, the score, and the words Hifzy flagged, including the word it thought it heard (as text). If you mark a flagged word as read correctly, or a mistake Hifzy missed, we keep that too. We also send these corrections, as text only and without your name or email, to the checker so Hifzy can learn to listen better.

How we use it

We don’t use your information for anything else without asking you first.

Hifz Maktab and schools

A madrasah’s Maktab admin sets up its classes and teachers. When you join a class, by code or by an email invite from your teacher, the teachers of that class and the madrasah’s Maktab admins can see:

They can set your plan while you’re in the class. Others in your class, and in your madrasah, can see your name on the leaderboard with your streak, the number of days you’ve closed your Wird and the number of ayat you’ve memorised this term.

Teachers can’t see your location, your settings or your emails. To leave a class, ask in the app and a teacher or Maktab admin approves it. Once you’ve left, the madrasah can no longer see your hifz, and you keep everything you’ve memorised.

The madrasah’s role

When a madrasah uses Hifz Maktab, it decides which students and teachers to add and what they use it for. We handle its students’ information on the madrasah’s behalf, only to run Hifz Daily and Hifz Maktab for it. The madrasah is responsible for telling parents that it uses Hifz Daily and, for students under 15, for authorising their use of it.

If you’re a student or a parent with a question about information in a madrasah’s class, you can ask the madrasah or us. We’ll work with the madrasah to answer it.

For teachers and Maktab admins, we keep your name, email, role and the classes you teach.

Children

Many people memorising the Quran are young, and we take extra care with children’s information.

For every child, we:

Parents and guardians can contact us at any time to see, correct or delete their child’s information, or to stop us collecting it.

Who helps us run it

We use a small number of trusted services. Each only gets what it needs to do its job, and we never sell your information to anyone.

ServiceWhat it doesWhere

When you listen to a recitation, your device downloads the audio directly from EveryAyah and QuranicAudio, which see your device’s internet address as any website would. This website also loads its fonts from Google Fonts, and the introduction video plays from YouTube when you press play.

Some of these services are outside Australia, so your information may be stored or handled overseas. We choose services that protect information to a standard comparable to Australian law.

We may also share information if the law requires us to.

How long we keep it

We keep your account and hifz for as long as you have an account. If you ask us to delete your account, we delete your account, your hifz and your Hifzy results. If you registered interest but never made an account, we keep your details until you ask us to remove them.

Your choices and rights

We’ll reply within 30 days, and complete a deletion within 30 days of confirming the request. If you’re not happy with how we’ve handled your information, tell us first and we’ll try to put it right. If we can’t, you can complain to the Office of the Australian Information Commissioner at oaic.gov.au.

Keeping it safe

Your information travels encrypted, and each person can reach only their own hifz. A teacher can see a student’s hifz only while that student is in their class. Only a few of us can see the data, and only to run and support Hifz Daily. No system is perfectly secure, but if something ever goes wrong in a way that could harm you, we’ll tell you.

Changes to this policy

As Hifz Daily grows, this policy may change. We’ll update the date at the top, and if a change matters, we’ll tell you in the app or by email before it takes effect.
