Privacy Policy

Introduction

The Torah of AO ("we," "our," or "us") operates the website at www.torahofao.com and the Torah of AO mobile application (collectively, the "Service"). This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and protect your information when you use our Service.

We are committed to protecting your privacy. Our mission is to make the scriptures accessible, and we believe that should not come at the cost of your personal data.

Information We Collect

Account Information

If you create an account, we collect your email address and authentication credentials. You may also sign in using Apple or Google, in which case we receive only the information those providers share (typically your name and email address).

User-Generated Content

We store highlights, notes, and reading preferences you create within the Service so they can sync across your devices.

Profile Image

If you choose to set a profile picture, the image is stored locally on your device. We do not upload profile images to our servers.

Device & Usage Data

We may collect anonymous, aggregated usage data such as which chapters are read most frequently. This data cannot be used to identify you personally.

How We Use Your Information

We use the information we collect to:

Provide and maintain the Service, including syncing your study data across devices; authenticate your identity when you sign in; improve the Service based on aggregated usage patterns; and communicate with you about updates or changes to the Service.

We do not sell, rent, or share your personal information with third parties for marketing purposes.

Data Storage & Security

Your data is stored securely using Supabase, which provides enterprise-grade encryption at rest and in transit. We use Row-Level Security (RLS) policies to ensure that only you can access your own data.

While no method of electronic transmission or storage is 100% secure, we take commercially reasonable measures to protect your information.

Third-Party Services

Our Service may use the following third-party services:

Supabase — for authentication and data storage. Apple Sign-In and Google Sign-In — for optional authentication. YouTube — for embedded video content. Vercel — for website hosting.

Each of these services has its own privacy policy governing how they handle your data.

Children's Privacy

Our Service is not directed to children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you are a parent or guardian and believe your child has provided us with personal data, please contact us and we will promptly delete that information.

Your Rights

You have the right to:

Access the personal data we hold about you; request correction of inaccurate data; request deletion of your account and all associated data; and export your data in a portable format.

To exercise any of these rights, contact us at the email address below.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will revise the "Effective Date" at the top of this page. Continued use of the Service after any changes constitutes your acceptance of the updated policy.
