Data Hosting and Security
We are committed to protecting your information. Your data is hosted on secure servers located in Ghana through our third-party hosting providers. We take appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect your data against unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction. However, please be aware that no method of electronic transmission or storage is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee its absolute security.

We do not sell your personal information. We may share your information in the following circumstances:
- With service providers (like our hosting partners) who assist in operating our app
- When required by law or to protect our rights
- In the event of a business transfer or merger
Third-Party Services
Holy Bible is free to use and does not contain advertisements. We do not use any advertising or ad-tracking services. We work with a small number of third-party services to operate the app:
Push Notifications
We use OneSignal to deliver push notifications you've opted into, such as the Verse of the Day, reading plan reminders, and daily devotions. OneSignal receives a device identifier linked to your account so notifications can be targeted to you, along with your notification preferences.
Sign-In with Google and Apple
If you choose to sign in with Google or Apple, we receive basic profile information — such as your name, email address, and profile picture — from that provider to create and authenticate your account. We never receive your Google or Apple password.
Donations and Payment Processing
If you choose to make a donation, payments are processed by Paystack. We do not collect or store your card details — these are handled directly by Paystack in accordance with its own privacy policy.
Crash and Error Reporting
We use Sentry to automatically collect crash reports and error logs so we can diagnose and fix problems with the app. This may include device information and app usage data at the time of the error.

- Access your personal information
- Correct inaccurate data
- Request deletion of your data
- Export your notes and data
- Opt-out of non-essential data collection
