Privacy Policy
How Faith40 handles your data
Plain terms, no legal filler: what we collect, why, who (if anyone) sees it, and how to make us delete it.
01 What we collect
Faith40 collects only what's needed to run a 40-day challenge tied to your own account. Nothing here is collected for advertising, and nothing is collected passively in the background.
| Data | Where it comes from | Why we need it |
|---|---|---|
| Email address | You, when you create an account | Sign-in, password resets |
| Password | You, when you create an account | Sign-in — stored as a salted hash, never in readable form (see §4) |
| Device timezone | Your device, automatically | Line up your daily checklist with your actual midnight, not a server's |
| Challenge progress | You, as you use the app | Checklist completion, current day, fast commitment, streak/grace/restart history |
| Reflection text | You, if you choose to write it | Shown back to you in the app — this is optional, and only you can read it |
We do not collect your location, contacts, photos, or device identifiers, and the app contains no analytics or advertising SDKs of any kind.
02 How we use it
Every piece of data above exists to make the app itself work:
- Authenticate you and keep your session signed in
- Show the correct day of your challenge, on your own local calendar day
- Save your checklist, reflections, and settings so they're there next time you open the app
- Send you a password-reset email if you request one
We do not use your data to train any model, build an advertising profile, or make decisions about you beyond running the app you're using.
04 Storage & security
- All traffic between the app and our servers is encrypted in transit (HTTPS/TLS).
- Passwords are hashed before storage — we cannot see or recover your actual password, ever.
- Database access is locked down with row-level security: your data is only ever readable by your own signed-in account, enforced at the database layer, not just in the app's UI.
05 Retention & deletion
Your data is kept for as long as your account exists. You can permanently delete your account, and everything tied to it, at any time from inside the app:
06 Your rights
Wherever you're located, you have the right to:
- Access what we hold on you — everything is already visible inside the app itself (your challenge history, reflections, and settings).
- Correct it — edit your settings, reflections, and password directly in the app at any time.
- Delete it — see §5 above.
- Ask questions about any of this — email us, see §9.
07 Children
Faith40 is not directed at children under 13, and we don't knowingly collect data from them. If you believe a child has created an account, email us and we'll delete it.
08 Changes to this policy
If this policy changes in a way that matters, we'll update the effective date above. Meaningful changes — new categories of data, new third parties — will also be reflected here before they take effect.
