Privacy Policy

1. Information We Collect

We collect information to operate Bible Reels, provide subscriptions and trials, and understand how the Service is used.

Account and Onboarding Information

• Email address used to create and manage your account.
• Password you choose (stored using industry-standard security practices).
• Onboarding responses such as:
  • “Why do you want to study the Bible?”
  • Your daily learning goal (for example, how many reels you want to watch per day).

Some onboarding responses may reflect your spiritual or religious interests or practices; we treat this as sensitive information and handle it with extra care as described below.

Subscription and Transaction Data

• Subscription plan (monthly or yearly), status (active, trial, cancelled), and renewal dates.
• Purchase history and refund-related information.
• Basic consumption information related to purchased content (for example, whether you accessed paid reels or completed quizzes) used to understand subscription usage and handle support or refund requests.

We do not store full payment card numbers ourselves; payments are processed by Apple App Store, Google Play, and Stripe.

Usage and Learning Activity

• Reels watched, watch time, and completion status.
• Quiz interactions and performance on quizzes that appear while using the Service (for example, after you watch a certain number of reels).
• Favorited reels, streaks, achievements, and liked content.
• Time and date of your activity in the Service.

We currently do not use quiz results or streaks to personalize content; they are used to power features and measure engagement.

Device and Log Data

• IP address, approximate location inferred from IP (such as country or region).
• Device type, operating system, app version, and browser type (for web).
• Basic platform logs and crash information from your device and our systems.

Cookies and Analytics

On web and in the apps, we use analytics tools (including Google Analytics and Amplitude) that may collect:

• Page views, navigation paths, and event data (for example, reel played, quiz completed, subscription started).
• Device identifiers and IP address.
• Referring URL or campaign information (for example, which ad or link led you to Bible Reels).

We use cookies and similar technologies mainly for session management, analytics, and measuring the effectiveness of our own marketing.

We do not collect comments, journals, notes, chat messages, profile bios, or other long-form user-generated content.

2. How We Use Your Information

We use the information described above to:

Operate and Improve the Service

• Create and manage your Bible Reels account.
• Provide access to more than a thousand Bible reels and quizzes.
• Administer the 3-day free trial and ongoing subscriptions (monthly or yearly).
• Monitor Service performance, analyze usage patterns, and fix bugs or errors.

We do not currently use your quiz results or onboarding answers to algorithmically personalize which reels you see; they support core features like progress tracking and motivation.

Communications

• Send you essential account and subscription messages, such as trial reminders, renewal notices, or changes to your account.
• Send occasional product update emails about new features or content (you may opt out of non-essential emails at any time).
• Display in-app notifications and push notifications related to your account, learning goals, and product updates.

Compliance, Safety, and Integrity

• Maintain records needed for accounting, tax, and other legal obligations.
• Detect, prevent, or investigate fraud, abuse, or violations of our Terms of Service.
• Respond to lawful requests from courts or regulators where required.

Marketing and Attribution (For Our Own Campaigns Only)

• Measure which marketing channels (such as Meta, TikTok, and Google Ads) lead to installs, subscriptions, or visits.
• Improve our own campaigns and user acquisition strategies.

We use certain analytics and attribution data for Bible Reels marketing only, and do not sell your personal information to third parties for their own independent advertising.

3. Legal Bases and U.S. Privacy Laws

For U.S. users, we rely on recognized legal bases under applicable laws such as the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA/CPRA):

• Contract performance: Operating your account, providing reels and quizzes, and administering subscriptions.
• Legitimate interests: Improving the Service, monitoring performance, securing systems, and measuring marketing effectiveness.
• Consent: Sending certain marketing emails and using cookies or analytics where opt-in is required.
• Legal compliance: Meeting regulatory, tax, and recordkeeping requirements, and responding to lawful requests.

4. Sharing Your Information

We share information only with trusted parties that help us run Bible Reels or comply with the law.

These service providers may process IP addresses, device data, usage events, and subscription information as part of providing their services. They are contractually limited in how they can use this data.

We may also share information:

• As part of a merger, acquisition, financing, or sale of assets, subject to appropriate confidentiality protections.
• When required by law or to protect rights, safety, or property (for example, responding to court orders or legal process).

We do not sell your personal information to data brokers or third parties for their own marketing purposes.

5. Spiritual and Sensitive Information

Certain information we collect—such as your reason for studying the Bible and your daily learning goals—can relate to your spiritual or religious interests. We treat this as sensitive and:

• Use it mainly to support learning features (such as goals and progress) and product analytics.
• Do not sell this information.
• Do not share it with third parties for their independent advertising.

6. Data Retention

We retain personal data for as long as reasonably necessary to provide the Service and meet legal obligations, similar to common practices used by faith-based learning apps:

• Account and subscription data: Kept while your account is active and for a reasonable period afterward to handle billing, support, and legal requirements.
• Usage and analytics data: Typically retained for several years to support product improvement, aggregate reporting, and security.
• Crash and log data: Kept for operational and security purposes for a limited period.

When you delete your account using the “Delete account” option in the “My” page, we will:

• Delete or de-identify your personal data within a reasonable period (for example, within 30 days), except where we must retain limited records for legal, accounting, or security purposes.
• Retain only anonymized or aggregate data that no longer identifies you personally.

7. Children’s Privacy

Bible Reels is intended for users aged 13 and older.

• We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13.
• If we learn that a child under 13 has created an account or provided personal information, we will take steps to delete the account and associated data.
• Parents or guardians who believe a child under 13 has used the Service may contact us at contact@vivadios.dev to request deletion.

We also do not knowingly sell or share the personal information of minors for targeted advertising as that term is understood in U.S. state privacy laws.

8. Your Privacy Rights

Depending on where you live in the United States, you may have rights under U.S. privacy laws such as the CCPA/CPRA and similar state statutes. These may include:

• Access: Request a copy of the personal information we hold about you.
• Correction: Ask us to correct inaccurate information.
• Deletion: Request deletion of your personal data, subject to certain exceptions.
• Opt-out of certain data uses: Opt out of specific types of data use, such as certain cookies or marketing emails.
• Data portability: Request a machine-readable copy of your data where technically feasible.

To exercise these rights, you can:

• Email us at contact@vivadios.dev with your request.
• Use in-app support options available in the “My” page of the Service.

We may need to verify your identity before fulfilling a request and may deny requests where the law allows (for example, when we must keep data for tax or security reasons). We will not discriminate against you for exercising your privacy rights.

9. Security Measures

We use reasonable technical, administrative, and organizational measures to protect your data, including:

• Encryption of data in transit (HTTPS).
• Secure authentication and access controls for our systems.
• Separation of production systems and limited access for authorized personnel.
• Monitoring and logging for unusual activity.

No online service can be guaranteed to be completely secure. You can help protect your account by using a strong password, keeping it confidential, and logging out when you finish using the Service.

10. Cookies and Similar Technologies

Bible Reels uses cookies and similar technologies on web and in apps to:

• Maintain your session and remember basic settings.
• Collect analytics to understand how people use the Service.
• Measure which advertising or referral channels lead to installs or subscriptions.

Where required by law, you can manage cookie preferences or opt out of certain tracking technologies through your browser settings or available controls. Disabling some cookies may affect the functionality of the website or certain features.

11. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices or legal requirements.

When we make material changes, we will update the “Last updated” date and may provide additional notice (for example, in-app or by email).

Your continued use of Bible Reels after changes take effect means you accept the updated Privacy Policy.
