Introduction

At Keel Stone Pathfinder, we are committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information when you use our mobile application and website (collectively, the "Service"). Please read this policy carefully. If you do not agree with the terms of this privacy policy, please do not access the Service.

Data We Collect

Personal Data

Personally identifiable information, such as your name, email address, phone number, and demographic information, that you voluntarily give to us when you register with the Service or when you choose to participate in various activities related to the Service, such as online chat and message boards. If you choose to share prayer requests anonymously, your identity will not be revealed to other users or group leaders.

Usage Data

Information our servers automatically collect when you access the Service, such as your IP address, your browser type, your operating system, your access times, and the pages you have viewed directly before and after accessing the Service.

Financial Data

Financial information, such as data related to your payment method (e.g., valid credit card number, card brand, expiration date) that we may collect if you purchase premium features. We store only very limited, if any, financial information that we collect. Otherwise, all financial information is stored by our payment processor, Stripe, and you are encouraged to review their privacy policy.

How We Use Your Data

Having accurate information about you permits us to provide you with a smooth, efficient, and customized experience. Specifically, we may use information collected about you via the Service to:

  • Create and manage your account
  • Deliver personalized content and reading plans
  • Enable communication within groups (discussions, prayer requests)
  • Process transactions for premium features
  • Notify you of updates to the Service
  • Request feedback and contact you about your use of the Service
  • Resolve disputes and troubleshoot problems
  • Respond to product and customer service requests

Third-Party Services

We may share your information with third parties that perform services for us or on our behalf, including payment processing, data analysis, email delivery, hosting services, and customer service.

Azure OpenAI

We use Azure OpenAI for AI-generated content such as study insights and personalized recommendations. Your personal data is processed in accordance with Microsoft Azure's privacy policy. We do not share your personal data with these services beyond what is necessary to provide the requested features (e.g., sending your study preferences to AI for plan generation).

Data Storage and Security

We use administrative, technical, and physical security measures to help protect your personal information. While we have taken reasonable steps to secure the personal information you provide to us, please be aware that despite our efforts, no security measures are perfect or impenetrable, and no method of data transmission can be guaranteed against any interception or other type of misuse.

We retain your personal data only for as long as is necessary for the purposes set out in this Privacy Policy. We will retain and use your information to the extent necessary to comply with our legal obligations (for example, if we are required to retain your data to comply with applicable laws), resolve disputes, and enforce our legal agreements and policies.

Your Privacy Rights (GDPR & CCPA)

If you are a resident of the European Economic Area (EEA) or California, you have certain data protection rights. We aim to take reasonable steps to allow you to correct, amend, delete, or limit the use of your Personal Data.
