    Used to deliver push notifications. This is anonymised and not linked to your identity.

  • Contacts (optional)
    If you choose to import friends, the app accesses your device contacts solely to help you remember who to pray for or share devotionals with. This data is stored locally and never uploaded.

  • Push Notification Token
    We use OneSignal to deliver notifications. This does not include your name, email, or personal identifiers.

  • On-Device Preferences
    We may store your devotional progress, streaks, and settings locally for personalisation. This data stays on your phone.

We do not collect:

  • Names

  • Email addresses

  • Location data

  • Payment or login credentials

  • Advertising identifiers (IDFA)
