Privacy Policy

1. Purpose of Processing Personal Data

Daniel's Bible processes personal data for sign-in authentication (Apple, Google, or Kakao depending on platform and availability), reading progress sync, community profiles and interactions, ranch invite and join flows, ranch activity display, service stability, and error analysis.

2. Data We Process

  • Community posts, comments, likes, reports, blocks, and follower/following relationships
  • Sign-in identifiers and profile display data from Apple, Google, or Kakao
  • Reading records (book, chapter, verse, reading timestamp, progress position)
  • Reflection content, Bible range, creation time, and the private or public visibility selected by the user
  • Membership, invite, and activity statistics for ranch features
  • Important action-result messages stored in the notification inbox
  • Device and access metadata for error analysis and performance improvements

3. Retention and Use Period

Account, reading, reflection, community, and ranch data stored on the server are retained within the service purpose scope. When an account is deleted, its reflections, follower/following relationships, and block relationships are deleted with it. The local notification inbox keeps up to 20 latest items for up to 1 month and is removed when the app is deleted.

4. Third-Party Services

External platforms are used where required for Apple, Google, or Kakao sign-in, app-store purchase processing, and generation of AI encouragement for counseling posts. Community counseling content may be sent to the configured AI provider only to generate that reply. Personal data is not shared with third parties arbitrarily unless required by law.

5. User Rights

Users can keep each reflection private or make it public on their community profile, and can later change that visibility or delete it. Users can delete their account in the app or start a deletion request at /account-deletion without reinstalling the app. Related server and local app data are cleared together. Account deletion does not automatically cancel an active App Store or Google Play subscription, so it must be cancelled separately in the store used for purchase. Apple accounts may require fresh authorization to revoke the Apple connection. Some payment records required for legal or operational reasons may be retained under a separate policy.
