The short version: Your prayers and journal entries stay on your device — we never see them. We collect your email address to create your account, and subscription status to grant access to paid features. We do not run ads, we do not sell your data, and we do not use any third-party tracking or analytics SDK.

1. What we collect

Data Where it lives Why we collect it
Email address & hashed password Supabase servers Account creation and sign-in
Supabase user ID Supabase servers Ties your account to subscription entitlements and any shared content you create
Subscription status Supabase servers Determines which features you can access
Shared prayer list content Supabase servers Only content you explicitly post to a shared group list — never your private prayers
Prayer requests, journal, answered-prayer log, tags, streaks Your device only (SwiftData) Your private prayer data. It never leaves your device and is not uploaded anywhere.
In-app usage events (e.g. "prayer marked prayed") Your device only (SwiftData) Local-only analytics for streak tracking and app improvement. Not transmitted off-device.

No iCloud sync is active at launch. Your private prayer data is local to the device you installed the app on.

2. Your prayers stay on your device

Prayer requests, confession prompts, thanksgiving entries, journal notes, and answered-prayer records are stored exclusively in SwiftData on your iPhone. We have no server-side copy of this content. If you delete the app, this data is deleted with it.

The app works fully offline. No background sync occurs while the app is running.

3. Account data (Supabase)

When you create an account, your email address and a hashed password are stored in Supabase (our authentication provider). We store the minimum needed to let you sign in and manage your subscription.

Account deletion

You can delete your account at any time from within the app (tap the account icon → Delete Account). Doing so permanently deletes your account record and any server-side data associated with it via the delete_account Supabase function. There is no waiting period.

4. Shared lists and groups

SimplyPray includes an opt-in shared-list feature (church groups, family prayer lists, etc.). Only content you explicitly post to a shared list is stored on our servers. This is strictly opt-in — your private prayer data is never affected. Shared-list content is protected by row-level security in Supabase so only members of your group can read it.

5. Subscriptions and payments

SimplyPray offers a paid subscription tier. Payments are processed by:

We store subscription status (active, cancelled, tier) to determine which features you can access. We do not store card numbers, CVVs, or full billing addresses.

6. No ad tracking

SimplyPray does not use advertising or third-party tracking of any kind.

7. Email communications

We send transactional emails to the address on your account. These include:

These emails are sent from no-reply@simplypray.io via Amazon Simple Email Service (SES). We do not send marketing or promotional emails without your explicit consent.

8. Cookies and the web

This marketing site (simplypray.io) is static HTML with no analytics scripts, advertising pixels, or tracking cookies. It does not set any cookies in your browser.

The web app at app.simplypray.io uses essential cookies required for authentication. Specifically, Supabase stores a session token in your browser so you stay signed in. These cookies are necessary for the app to function and are not used for advertising or tracking purposes.

9. Third-party data processors

We use the following services to operate SimplyPray. Each acts as a data processor under our instructions and is bound by appropriate data-handling terms.

Processor Purpose Data shared
Supabase Authentication, database, shared-list storage Email, user ID, subscription status, shared-list content
Stripe Web payment processing Email (for receipts), subscription status
Apple iOS In-App Purchase Subscription status notifications (Apple manages payment data)
Amazon SES Transactional email delivery Your email address and email content for delivery
Vercel Hosting for this marketing site and web app Standard web server logs (IP address, user-agent) per Vercel's privacy policy

We do not sell your data to any of these processors or to any other party. They are used solely to provide the service.

10. Data retention

We retain your account data (email, user ID, subscription status) for as long as your account is active. When you delete your account, server-side data is permanently deleted.

On-device data (prayers, journal, usage events) is deleted when you delete the app, or when you clear app data on your device.

Local usage-event records are automatically pruned after 90 days by the app.

11. Children

SimplyPray is not directed at children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If we become aware that a child under 13 has provided us with personal data, we will delete it promptly. If you believe a child has provided us their information, contact us at the address below.
