The khatm is shared, the rest stays with you.

To open a khatm for everyone with one link, the khatm has to live on a server. Mukabele’s data is kept on a server that Metehan Biçer set up and runs himself. The data is not sent to any advertising, analytics or data service, not sold, and not shared with any other company.

Only what is typed into the app or the khatm page:

• The khatm: its title, intention, the organiser’s display name, the finish date, the colour and which round it is.
• Juz: which juz has been taken, the name typed by whoever took it, when it was taken and whether it has been read.
• Completed rounds: when each round of the khatm was completed.
• Ownership: which device started the khatm and which device took each juz (through a hash of the key described below).
• Reports: when a khatm is reported, which khatm it was and the short note written.

Mukabele does not collect your email address, phone number, location, contacts, photos or device identifiers. There is no account, sign-up or login. Your name is only the name you type to appear in the juz list; it does not have to be your real name. When you read your juz in the app, nothing about what you read is sent to the server; the Quran text is inside the app.

Because there are no accounts, Mukabele creates a random secret key on your iPhone the first time you open it and keeps it in the iOS Keychain. For people who open a khatm in a browser, the page keeps a random key in the browser’s local storage, along with the name you typed, for convenience. The key is used when you start or edit a khatm, take a juz or mark it read. The server stores only a SHA-256 hash of the key, never the key itself; the key cannot be recovered from the hash. No cookies are used.

• Anyone with the link sees the khatm’s title, intention, the organiser’s name, the finish date, and who took and who has read each juz. Every khatm has a random link (mukabele.metehanbicer.com/h/…). Khatms are not listed anywhere and their pages are closed to search engines (noindex), but anyone who knows the link can open the khatm. Share it only with the people you want to join.
• The organiser can also free up a juz or mark it read for someone.
• What you write as the intention, such as the name of a loved one who passed, is visible to everyone who opens the link; keep that in mind as you write it.

Mukabele has no analytics, no ads and no advertising identifier (IDFA). The app contains no third-party SDKs that collect data. Mukabele does not track you across other companies’ apps or websites, so it never asks for tracking permission.

In the terms of the App Store privacy label, the only data Mukabele handles is Name and Other User Content, both used for app functionality only, not linked to your identity and not used for tracking.

To limit abuse, the server counts requests that arrive from the same IP address in a short time. These counters are kept only in memory and cleared within minutes; IP addresses are not stored long-term and are not linked to khatms.

You can report a khatm you find inappropriate from the app (the … menu) or at the bottom of its web page. Reports are stored on the server and I review them myself; they are not sent to any other service or messaging app. I review reports within 24 hours, and a khatm that breaks the law or the terms of use is removed. A report stores only the khatm and the short note you wrote, not who reported it.

• Tapping Settings › Delete my data in Mukabele deletes every khatm this device started and every juz you took from the server right away. This cannot be undone.
• Deleting a single khatm with Delete khatm removes the khatm and all its juz records from the server, and the link you shared stops working.
• Giving back a juz with Give back deletes that juz record and frees the juz again.
• Remove from my list only removes a khatm you joined from your own list; the juz you took stay in the khatm.
• Use Delete my data before you delete the app: because the secret key lives on your phone, I may not be able to delete your khatms for you once the app is gone. If that happens, write to me with the khatm’s link and I will help.

This site uses no cookies and no analytics or advertising tools, and it serves its own fonts, so opening a page sends no requests to other companies. The site is hosted on Cloudflare, which may process technical connection data such as IP addresses to deliver pages securely. I don’t use this data for analytics or advertising.

Under Article 11 of Türkiye’s Personal Data Protection Law No. 6698 (KVKK), you have the right to learn whether your personal data is processed and to request information if it is; to learn the purpose of processing and whether data is used for that purpose; to know the third parties in Türkiye or abroad to whom it is transferred; to ask for incomplete or incorrect data to be corrected and for data to be deleted; to ask for these actions to be notified to those third parties; to object to a result against you arising from analysis by automated systems; and to claim compensation if you suffer damage from unlawful processing.

The information in Mukabele is processed to provide the group khatm service, that is, to perform our contract; limiting abuse and reviewing reports are my legitimate interest. You can delete your data in the app at any time. Send any request about your rights to metehanbicer006@gmail.com; I will reply within 30 days at the latest.

If you are in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom or Switzerland, you have the right to access, correct and erase your personal data, to restrict or object to its processing, to data portability, and to complain to the data protection authority where you live. Khatms, names and juz records are processed because this is necessary to provide the service (GDPR Article 6(1)(b)); limiting abuse and reviewing reports rely on legitimate interests (Article 6(1)(f)). You can send requests to the same email address.

If I update this policy, I will publish the changes on this page and update the effective date at the top. If a change is significant, I will also point it out in the app or on this site.
