Privacy Policy
Introduction
This Privacy Policy explains how Zamly (“we”, “us”, or “our”) collects, uses, and shares information when you use our mobile application and related services (the “Service”).
We are committed to protecting your privacy and being fully transparent about how your information is handled. Because Zamly is designed to support your daily Islamic practice in a personal way, some information you choose to share may be deeply sensitive. We treat that information with the utmost care and respect. We do not, and will never, sell your personal information.
By using Zamly, you acknowledge that your information will be handled as described in this Privacy Policy.
