Privacy
Policy.

LYTDesign™ · Norway GDPR Compliant March 2025
Your recitation is between you and Allah. It should stay that way. This Privacy Policy explains what data QuraLYT collects, why, and how it is protected. We have designed QuraLYT from the ground up to collect as little as possible. In the free Core tier, we collect nothing at all. This page exists because the law requires us to tell you — and because you deserve to know.

Cookies &
Website.

The short answer

The QuraLYT website uses no tracking cookies, no advertising cookies, and no analytics cookies. We do not track visitors to our website.

Session functionality
The contact form may use a short-lived session token to submit your message securely. This is a functional cookie only. It expires when you close your browser and contains no personal data.
No analytics cookies
We do not use Google Analytics, Facebook Pixel, Hotjar, or any other third-party analytics tool on this website. No visitor tracking of any kind.
No advertising cookies
We do not run retargeting campaigns. No advertising network has ever placed a cookie on this website. This will not change.

Norwegian cookie law: Under Norwegian ePrivacy regulations aligned with GDPR, consent is required for non-essential cookies. Since we use only essential functional cookies, no consent banner is required. If this ever changes, a proper consent mechanism will be added before any non-essential cookies are placed.

06 ——

Third-Party
Processors.

We use the minimum number of third-party services required to operate. Below is a full and transparent list:

Apple App Store
Distributes QuraLYT on iOS and macOS. Apple collects purchase and device data under their own privacy policy at apple.com/privacy. LYTDesign™ has no control over Apple's data practices as platform operator.
Google Play Store
Distributes QuraLYT on Android. Google collects device and usage data under their own privacy policy at policies.google.com. LYTDesign™ has no control over Google's data practices as platform operator.
Cloud sync provider (Pro & Elite — future)
When cloud sync launches, the provider will be named here with a link to their GDPR data processing agreement. We will only use providers that sign a DPA (Data Processing Agreement) with us and are GDPR compliant. No provider will be selected until this is confirmed.
No advertising networks — ever
QuraLYT does not use and will never use any advertising network, data broker, or third-party tracking service. This is not a gap in the list — it is intentional.

Your Rights
Under GDPR.

If you are in the EEA (including Norway), you have the following rights under GDPR. To exercise any of these rights, email hello@lytdesign.com. We will respond within 30 days.

Right to Access
Request a copy of any personal data we hold about you. (Art. 15 GDPR)
Right to Rectification
Request correction of inaccurate personal data. (Art. 16 GDPR)
Right to Erasure
Request deletion of your personal data. We act within 7 days. (Art. 17 GDPR)
Right to Portability
Receive your data in a machine-readable format to transfer elsewhere. (Art. 20 GDPR)
Right to Object
Object to processing based on legitimate interests. (Art. 21 GDPR)
Right to Withdraw Consent
Where processing is based on consent, withdraw it at any time. (Art. 7 GDPR)

Since the Core app collects no data, most of these rights will confirm: "We hold no personal data about you." For Pro/Elite account holders, all rights apply fully to your account data.

Data Breach
Policy.

72-hour notification rule
In the event of a personal data breach, we will notify Datatilsynet (the Norwegian Data Protection Authority) within 72 hours of becoming aware of it, as required by GDPR Art. 33.
Notifying affected users
If a breach is likely to result in a high risk to your rights and freedoms, we will notify affected users directly without undue delay, as required by GDPR Art. 34.
Why breaches are unlikely
Because the Core app collects no data and stores everything locally on your device, a server-side breach cannot expose Core users' data — there is nothing to breach. Pro/Elite data is encrypted at rest and in transit, minimising risk.

Supervisory Authority

If you believe we have processed your personal data unlawfully, you have the right to lodge a complaint with Datatilsynet — the supervisory authority for Norway.
