Summary

The Latin Prayer App collects almost nothing. Your prayers stay on your device. We collect only anonymous, aggregate usage statistics — never personal information.

What We Collect

Anonymous usage statistics

To understand which prayers and rosary tracks are most valued, the app sends anonymous, aggregate statistics to our server (hosted on Supabase). These include:

  • Which prayer or rosary track was viewed or completed (e.g. “Glorious Mysteries”)
  • The date (day only, not time)
  • Your timezone (e.g. “America/New_York” — used only for geographic context)
  • A daily pseudonymous identifier — a rotating hash that resets every day, making it impossible to track you across days or identify you individually

This data is aggregated into daily totals. We cannot identify individual users, devices, or usage patterns from this data.

What we do NOT collect via analytics

  • Your name, email, or any personal information
  • Your device ID, advertising identifier, or hardware identifiers
  • Your precise location (timezone is the coarsest geographic signal)
  • How long you spend in the app
  • Any content you read or type

If you make a purchase

When you choose to support development via in-app purchase:

  • RevenueCat (our payment processor) receives:
  • An anonymous device identifier
  • Your purchase history with us
  • Basic device info (OS version, app version)
  • Apple processes the payment per their privacy policy

We do not receive your name, email, or payment details.

iCloud

Rosary completion history syncs across your devices via iCloud. This data:

  • Is stored in your personal iCloud account
  • Is not accessible to us
  • Can be disabled in iOS Settings

What We Do NOT Collect

  • Personal information (name, email, phone)
  • Precise location data
  • Contacts
  • Photos
  • Health data
  • Browsing history
  • Advertising identifiers
  • Device fingerprints or persistent identifiers
