Privacy policy

Effective October 28, 2026. This policy describes Bible With You and its support website. Contact the Bible With You team at BibleWithYou.Support@gmail.com for privacy questions or requests.

Information you provide

When you create an account, we process your name, email address, account identifier and authentication information. We store reading position, saved verses, highlights, learning progress, preferences and personal reflections to provide the features you use. Guest reading data is stored locally; importing it into an account is your choice.

Private notes and social features

Personal reflections are stored separately from circle conversations and are not automatically shared with friends or groups. Account access controls protect them; they are not end-to-end encrypted. Circle profiles, messages, reactions, shared progress, study participation and quiz answers are visible to the people permitted by that feature. Reports and blocking information support moderation and safety. Other people may retain copies of content you share.

Service providers

Google Firebase provides authentication, database and backend infrastructure. Infrastructure providers process technical information such as IP addresses and request logs to operate and secure the service. RevenueCat processes your app account identifier, purchase and subscription information to validate access when purchases are enabled. Apple or Google handles store payments; we do not receive your full payment-card details. See Google's privacy policy and RevenueCat's privacy policy.

Advertising

When advertising is enabled, Google AdMob may process device identifiers, IP address, approximate location, ad interactions and diagnostics to deliver, measure and protect ads. We request non-personalized ads and use Google's consent tools where applicable. Non-personalized ads may still require consent for device storage or identifiers. You can revisit available choices under Settings → Ad privacy choices. This release is free to use and does not offer subscriptions or in-app purchases. We do not send journal text, Bible-reading selections or circle messages as advertising targeting data.

Notifications and device storage

Notifications require device permission. Remote delivery uses a notification token linked to your account; reminders can be disabled in the app or device settings. Downloaded Scripture and audio and local account data use device storage. No microphone recording, contact-book upload or precise GPS access is required for our core features.

Why information is used

We use information to operate requested features, sync account data, administer subscriptions, provide support, deliver chosen reminders, prevent abuse and comply with applicable obligations. Our app's general-purpose analytics collection is currently disabled. This support site has no advertising or analytics scripts; the hosting service may keep technical request logs.

Retention and deletion

Account content is retained while you use the service or until you delete it. Use Account → Delete account or follow our deletion instructions. Deletion removes account access and initiates cleanup of account and associated shared data. Limited billing, security, moderation or support records may be retained where needed for legal obligations, dispute handling or abuse prevention. Provider backups and logs can follow separate retention schedules. Exported files and other people's copies are outside our control.

Your choices

You can edit account details, export your journal, manage sharing, mute notifications, block people and request access, correction or deletion by contacting BibleWithYou.Support@gmail.com. Depending on where you live, additional rights may apply, including objection, restriction and complaints to a privacy authority. We may verify account ownership before acting on a request. Do not email your password or payment-card details.

International processing and children

Service providers may process information outside your country, including in the United States. Bible With You is intended for people aged 13 and older and is not directed at children under 13. If you believe a child under 13 has provided personal information, contact us so we can investigate and remove it as appropriate.

Changes

We will update this page when practices change and provide additional notice when appropriate. The effective date above identifies this version.
