Privacy Policy

We only collect the data you explicitly provide when you use the app:

• Shared entries: If you choose to share a specific entry (using the share link feature), only the people you give that link to can view that particular entry.
• Administrators can see your email, name, account status, and signup date for account management. They cannot view your blessing text or study content.
• No data mining: Your study content is never aggregated, analyzed, sold, or used for any purpose other than providing the study features you requested.

• Encryption in transit: All connections use HTTPS/TLS. Data cannot be intercepted between your browser and our servers.
• Encrypted database: Your data is stored in an encrypted database with restricted access.
• Password security: Passwords are hashed with bcrypt before storage. We never store or see plaintext passwords.
• PII sanitization: When you upload a blessing, the app automatically removes personal names, family member names, geographic locations, and calendar dates before the text is stored. This protects your identity even in the unlikely event of a data breach.
• Session management: Authentication tokens expire, and sessions are validated on every request. Account approval is required before access is granted.
• API key encryption: If you bring your own AI API key, it is encrypted with AES-256-GCM before storage.

To generate scripture references, language insights, conference talk suggestions, and other study tools, your blessing segment text is sent to an AI language model (such as Anthropic Claude or OpenAI) for processing. Here is what you should know:

• Only the sanitized blessing segment (with personal identifiers already removed) is sent to the AI.
• AI providers process your text to generate a response and do not store your data for training, per their enterprise API terms of service.
• If you provide your own API key (BYOK), requests go directly to your chosen provider under your own API agreement.
• No other third-party service receives your blessing or study data.

Stripe (payment processor): If you make a donation, Stripe processes your payment. We receive only a confirmation of the transaction, your email (for receipt purposes), and subscription status. We never receive or store your credit card number. See Stripe's Privacy Policy.

Regardless of where you live, we extend the following rights to every user:

You can delete individual study entries at any time from your journal. To request complete account deletion (including all blessing text, entries, study plans, and account data), please contact us at the email below. We will permanently delete all your data within 30 days of your request.

7. Data Retention

We retain your data for as long as your account is active. If you delete your account, all associated data is permanently removed from our systems within 30 days. We do not keep backups of deleted user data.

8. Children's Privacy

Daily Study App is not directed at children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect data from children under 13. If you believe a child has created an account, please contact us so we can promptly delete it.

9. Changes to This Policy

If we make material changes to this policy, we will update the effective date at the top and, where possible, notify users via the app. Continued use of the app after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
