Privacy Policy for Pray Log

Introduction

Pray Log (祷告日志 / 禱告日誌 on the Chinese App Store, 祈りの日記 in Japanese, 기도일지 in Korean; "we," "our," or "us") is a private prayer journal. This Privacy Policy explains what information the Pray Log app for iPhone and iPad (the "App") handles, where it is kept, and how you can delete it.

In short: your prayers stay on your device and, with iCloud sync, in your own iCloud. We have no accounts, no advertising, no analytics and no third-party tracking. We never receive your prayers, your journal or the names of the people you pray for.

Information We Do Not Collect

• Your prayers: we never receive your prayers, updates, answers, journal entries, Bible passages, people, photos, tags or reminders
• Accounts: there is no sign-up and no account with us
• Usage and tracking: no analytics, no advertising, no advertising identifier, no tracking across apps or websites
• Contacts and location: the App has no access to your contacts and does not use your location. If you import people from Contacts, the App keeps only the names and photos of the people you choose (see Permissions), and we never receive them

Where Your Data Is Kept

On your device

Your prayers, the people you pray for (the names and photos you add yourself or import from Contacts), updates, answers, prayer times, journal entries, reminders and settings are stored on your device. The App's widgets, Share extension and Siri shortcuts use a container shared on your device: Home Screen widgets show the titles of today's prayers, and the Share extension reads your people and tags so you can file a new prayer. Lock Screen widgets show only a person's name, never the title of a prayer.

In your own iCloud

With iCloud sync, your records are also stored in the private iCloud database of your own Apple Account, so they appear on your other devices and can be restored on a new one. iCloud sync is on by default; you can turn it off in Settings at any time. This storage is provided by Apple under Apple's Privacy Policy. Only devices signed in to your Apple Account can read it; we have no access to it.

Permissions

The App asks for a permission only when you use the feature that needs it:

• Notifications: to deliver the reminders you set. Reminders are scheduled on your device. By default a reminder shows only general text; names appear only if you choose to show them for that reminder.
• Photos: when you add a photo for a person, the system photo picker gives the App only the photo you pick. The App does not ask for access to your photo library.
• Contacts: when you import people from Contacts, the system contact picker gives the App only the contacts you choose. The App keeps only their names and photos and stores nothing else from them; names already in the App are skipped. The App has no access to the rest of your contacts and does not ask for Contacts permission.
• Siri and Shortcuts: you can add a prayer, mark that you prayed for someone or start praying with Siri. Siri requests are handled by Apple under Apple's Privacy Policy; we do not receive them.

Sharing and Exports

• Share extension: text or a link you share to Pray Log from another app is saved as a new prayer on your device.
• Letting someone know you prayed: you see and can edit the message before you send it as a text message, share it as an image or copy it. Only that message is shared, and nothing is sent to us.
• Journal entry as an image: the image is made on your device from the entry's date, how long you prayed, title, text and passage; prayers linked to the entry are left out. It goes only where you choose in the share sheet, and nothing is sent to us.
• PDF export and backups: PDFs and backup files are created on your device and go only where you choose to save or share them. A backup holds your records in readable form, so keep it somewhere you trust. Restoring a backup reads only the file you choose. We do not receive a copy.
• Anything else you share goes only where you choose in the share sheet.

Purchases

Pray Log Plus is an optional one-time purchase; there are no subscriptions. The purchase is processed by Apple through the App Store, and we do not receive your payment details. The App checks your purchase with Apple to unlock Plus.

Crash Reports

If you agree in iOS Settings to share analytics with app developers, Apple may provide us with crash and performance reports that do not identify you.

Data Sharing and Third Parties

We do not sell or share any data. The App uses Apple's system frameworks and services (such as CloudKit for iCloud sync and the App Store for purchases); it contains no third-party analytics, advertising or tracking code.

Data Retention and Deletion

• In the App: edit or delete prayers and journal entries at any time. Deleted prayers and journal entries stay in Recently Deleted for 30 days so you can restore them, and are then removed permanently; a prayer's updates and answers are removed with it. Removing a person takes effect right away, and their prayers stay.
• iCloud: turn off iCloud sync in the App to stop syncing. To delete the copy in your iCloud, open the Settings app → your name → iCloud → Manage Account Storage.
• On your device: deleting the App removes all data it stored on the device.
• Emails: if you email us, we receive your message and email address. We keep it only as long as we need it to reply. Ask us and we will delete it.

Children's Privacy

The App is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from them.

International Data Transfers

Data in your iCloud is stored by Apple, which may process it in countries other than your own, as described in Apple's Privacy Policy.

Changes to This Privacy Policy

If this policy changes, we will update the "Last Updated" date above and describe significant changes in the App's release notes.
