Privacy Policy
What we collect
- Your sign-in identity (Google profile or email).
- The questions you ask and the AI's answers.
- Your progress through a sermon's devotional (which days you mark complete).
- Bookmarks you save.
- Problem reports you submit, including the content you reported and your identity (so admins can follow up).
- How far through a sermon you listened, so you can pick it back up.
- The terms you search for.
- Needs you send to your church's needs wall, if your church uses one — the text and the initials shown on the card.
- If you are on a teaching or planning team: the sermon drafts, comments, planning notes, and practice recordings you create in Studio.
Who can see what
The content of your conversations is private by default. Your church's admins can see activity about your account — how many questions you've asked and on which sermons, which sermons you've bookmarked, and which devotional days you've completed — but not what you wrote. Two exceptions, both triggered by you: when you rate an answer thumbs-down, or report a problem with AI content, that specific question and answer are shown to your church's admins so they can review quality.
Problem reports include your identity because the admin will likely want to follow up. If you don't want your identity attached, don't submit a report.
External services
Sermon transcripts come from publicly-available YouTube captions or, for sermons without captions, from transcribing the church's own podcast audio with Deepgram (sermon content only — never your data). We send the transcript and your questions to Anthropic's Claude API to generate responses. We send chunk-level transcript text to OpenAI's embedding API for retrieval. Bible passage text comes from api.bible. Errors are reported to Sentry with credentials and identifying tokens scrubbed. The application and its database are hosted on Render, and generated media (such as shareable sermon clips) is stored on Cloudflare R2.
Data deletion
Delete your account from settings. Your conversations, devotional progress, bookmarks, listening progress, and preferences are hard-deleted immediately, along with any private sermon drafts and practice recordings you made.
Text you wrote as yourself is removed, not just unlinked. We delete the text of problem reports you submitted, the text of any need you sent to your church's needs wall from your phone, and the initials shown on cards you wrote. The church keeps the surrounding record — that a report was made, that a card sat on the board — so its own history stays intact.
The deletion reaches every church where you left that text, including ones you have since left or been removed from. You do not have to still be on a church's roster for it to be removed there.
One limit on that, stated plainly. If planners had already built a sermon series around a need you wrote, that sentence stays in the church's record of that series — and in the planning and drafts that came out of it — because by then it had become part of the church's plan rather than a message from you.
Work you produced on behalf of your church is treated differently. If you were on a teaching or planning team, the sermon drafts, comments, and planning notes you contributed belong to the church and stay with it, no longer linked to your account. Search terms are kept so churches can see what people are looking for, with the link to your account removed.
No tracking pixels, no ads
We don't run advertising and we don't embed third-party tracking pixels. Fonts are served from our own servers. The third-party requests on these pages are the YouTube embed for sermon video playback, scrubbed error reporting to Sentry, and — for some churches — the church's own brand fonts or logo from their provider.
