Kimá Privacy Policy
Kimá is the Jewish clock from the house of My Jewish Day, for Apple Watch, Wear OS, and as a widget on your phone. It is built on a simple principle: almost everything happens inside your own device. You don't need to create an account.
1No account, an anonymous identifier
The app works without email or password. It is identified by an anonymous code (UUID) generated on your device, which contains neither your name nor your email.
2Location: only on your device
Location is used to compute the zmanim (halachic hours) of your place and the direction to the Kotel. This computation happens only inside your device: the app does not send your latitude or longitude to any server. You can also choose your city by hand, without using GPS.
3Everything is computed locally
The hours of the sky, the moon phase, the Hebrew date, and the compass are computed on your device, from the location or city you choose. We store none of it on servers.
4Crash reports
When the app closes unexpectedly, Kimá sends an automatic crash report to Firebase Crashlytics, a Google service — and only then. Until this version Kimá sent nothing to any server; the crash report is the one exception, and it exists so we can learn that the app broke on someone's phone and fix it. A report carries the technical trace of the crash, your device model, its operating-system version, the app version, and a random installation identifier that Firebase generates. It does not carry your name, your email, your location, or anything about what you do in the app — Kimá has no accounts, no behavioral analytics, and no advertising. The location Kimá uses to compute the sky and the zmanim stays on your device and is never sent to Firebase. Crash reports are retained for up to 90 days. Google processes this data under its privacy policy.
5Subscriptions
If Kimá offers premium features, billing is processed by Apple or Google. We do not see or store your payment card details; only the subscription status.
6How to delete your data
From the app's Settings you can delete your data: local information is erased and the device's anonymous identifier is reset.
7No advertising, no data sale
Kimá contains no advertising, uses no advertising tracking networks, and does not sell or share your data.
