Daily Biblical History Privacy Policy
Daily Biblical History (the “app”) is published by Ben Brown (individual) (“we,” “us”). This policy explains what happens to information when you use the app on iPhone or Android. In short, we don’t collect personal information.
1. What we collect
Nothing. The app has no accounts, sign-ups, ads, analytics, crash reporting, push notifications, purchases, or donations, and we don’t ask for your name, email, location, or contacts.
2. Information that stays on your device
Some things are stored only on your phone or tablet so the app works:
- facts you save,
- quiz progress,
- your settings, including your reminder preferences.
Your Saved list, quiz progress and settings are stored only on your device. They are not sent to us or to anyone else. Deleting the app removes it. Depending on your device settings, your phone’s own backup service (such as iCloud or Google backup) may include app data in your device backups. Apple or Google, not us, controls those backups under their own terms.
Search runs entirely on your device. Your searches are not sent anywhere.
3. The app does not connect to the internet
All of the app’s content is built in: daily facts, artifacts, the timeline, the map, Greek and Hebrew word studies, quizzes, and all images. Version 1.0 of the app itself makes no network requests and sends no data to us or to anyone else. Links such as Privacy and Terms open your phone’s browser only when you tap them.
If we add online content updates in the future, we will update this policy first.
The marketing and support website (not the app) is hosted by Cloudflare, Inc. Cloudflare processes standard request information, such as your IP address, to deliver the site and keep it secure, and it keeps that information under its own privacy policy. We do not use analytics on the website and we don’t receive or use these logs to identify visitors.
If you open a link from the app (for example, a license link), it opens in your own browser or another app, under that app’s policies, not ours.
Share uses your phone’s own share sheet, only when you choose it, and sends only the fact text and a link. The app does not see which app or person you share with, or what happens to it afterward.
4. Reminders
The app can show a daily reminder. Reminders are local notifications, meaning your device schedules them itself. They don’t come from our servers, and no information is sent to us. You can turn reminders off in the app’s settings or in your device’s notification settings.
5. Children
The app is for a general audience. It is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children. Because the app collects no personal information from anyone, we do not expect to hold any children’s data. If you think a child has sent us personal information, for example by emailing us, contact dailybiblicalhistory@gmail.com and we will delete it.
6. Third parties
The app contains no third-party advertising, analytics, tracking, or social media software development kits (SDKs). We do not sell, rent, or share personal information.
[Attorney/publisher to confirm: the build contains no third-party SDKs that collect data, including SDKs included by default in development frameworks.]
If you email us, we receive your email address and whatever you choose to write. We use it only to reply, for example to handle a correction you suggest, and we keep it only as long as we need to for that.
7. Your privacy rights
Depending on where you live, privacy laws may give you rights over personal information about you. These may include laws in California (such as the CCPA/CPRA), Texas (such as the Texas Data Privacy and Security Act), other U.S. states, and, for users in the European Economic Area or the United Kingdom, the GDPR. Those rights may include the right to access, correct, or delete personal information, or to opt out of its sale, sharing, or use for targeted advertising. We have not determined whether any particular law applies to us. In practice:
- We do not sell or share personal information, and we do not use it for targeted advertising or profiling.
- We do not hold personal information about app users, so there is normally nothing to access, correct, delete, or move. App data on your device is under your control, and deleting the app removes it.
- If you have emailed us and want that email deleted, or if you have any privacy request, write to dailybiblicalhistory@gmail.com. We will answer within the time required by applicable law.
- If you are in the EEA or UK, the only personal data we may process is any email you send us (to reply). The website’s host may keep short-term server logs (section 3); those logs are about visits to the website, not use of the app. You may have a right to complain to your local data protection authority.
[Attorney to confirm whether EU/UK distribution is planned and whether more is needed, such as naming a representative.]
8. Security
The app does not connect to the internet and we collect no personal information, so little is at risk. No method of storage is completely secure.
9. Changes to this policy
If we change this policy, we will post the new version at dailybiblicalhistory.pages.dev and update the effective date. If a change would mean collecting personal information, or if we add online content updates, we will update this policy and the app store privacy disclosures before the change takes effect.
