Privacy Policy
Last updated: October 20, 2026
LectioDive (“the app,” “we,” “us”) is operated by Foxxception LLC. This policy explains what information the app collects, how it is used, and the choices you have. We keep the app’s data footprint small on purpose.
You can read the daily readings, the Bible, and the study content without creating an account. Until you sign in, your hearts, reading progress, and any journal draft are kept only on your phone.
Information we collect
- Account information. If you create an account, we collect your email address so we can sign you in. If you sign in with an emailed code, our email provider delivers the code to that address. If you use Sign in with Apple or Google, we receive the email address that service provides (Apple may give us a private relay address instead); Google may also share your name and profile photo, which are saved with your account. We do not use passwords. Each time you sign in, we keep a session record, which can include the IP address and device type it came from, to keep your account secure.
- Your journal. Journal entries you save are stored on our servers, tied to your account, and shown only to you when you are signed in. If you start writing before you sign in, the draft stays on your phone until you sign in and save it. When you sign out, the app removes your journal from the phone.
- Hearts and reading progress. The Discover cards you heart and the days you mark as read are stored on your phone. When you are signed in, they are also saved to your account so they follow you to your other devices.
- Chapter study requests. When you ask for a study of a chapter that does not have one yet, we note that your account requested it. The study itself is shared with every reader.
- Reports. If you use “Report an issue,” we receive what the report is about (for example, the day, passage, or card) and any note you choose to add. If you are signed in, the report is linked to your account.
- Messages to us. If you email us, we use your message and email address to reply.
- Diagnostics. The app uses Sentry to report crashes and errors. A report contains technical details such as the error, your device model, the operating-system and app versions, and recent activity in the app (for example, what was tapped and which requests the app made). About one in five app launches also sends performance timings, such as how long the app took to start. Diagnostics are not linked to your account or email address. Our servers also keep short-lived technical logs of requests. All of this is used only to find and fix problems and to keep the service secure.
Waitlist
If you join the waitlist on our website, we store your email address, when you signed up, and which page you signed up from. We use your address only to send you news about the app’s launch and early access — starting with one email confirming you joined. Every email has a one-click unsubscribe link, or you can email support@lectiodive.com to unsubscribe or to have your address deleted, which we do on request. To stop abuse of the signup form, we briefly keep a scrambled (hashed) form of the IP address a signup came from, never the address itself, and delete it within about a day. Your waitlist address is never sold or shared, and it is not linked to an app account.
Kept only on your phone
- Your pilgrimage, saved verses and highlights, reminder time, and appearance settings are stored only on your phone and are not sent to us.
- If you turn on “Use my real steps,” the app reads your step count from your phone’s motion sensor to move your pilgrimage along. Step counts are not sent to us.
- If you save a card image to your photo library, the app can only add that image; it cannot see your photos.
How we use information
- To provide the app: signing you in, keeping your journal, and syncing your hearts and reading progress.
- To review reports and correct study content.
- To send waitlist members launch and early-access news.
- To find, diagnose, and fix problems and improve the app.
- To protect the security and integrity of the service.
What we do not do
- We do not sell or rent your information.
- We do not show advertising.
- We do not track you across other apps or websites for advertising.
Service providers
We use a small number of providers to run the app: Cloudflare hosts our servers, Neon provides our database, Resend delivers sign-in codes and waitlist emails, and Sentry handles crash and error diagnostics. If you sign in with Apple or Google, that company handles the sign-in under its own privacy policy. These providers process data only to provide their service to us.
Scripture and study content
Scripture text is from the public-domain Douay-Rheims Bible. Study content is generated with Magisterium AI on our servers; it is a study aid, not official Church teaching. To write it, we send Magisterium AI only public-domain texts — Scripture and passages from the Church Fathers, councils, and other public-domain Catholic writings — with the day’s liturgical details or a study topic, never your account details, your journal, or anything else about you. Each study and Discover card is generated once and shared with every reader.
Deleting your account and data
We keep your account information for as long as you have an account. You can permanently delete your account at any time from within the app, under Settings › Account › Delete account. This deletes your account and its data from our servers — your journal entries, hearts, reading progress, and sign-in records — and the app removes your journal from your phone. Reports you sent and chapter studies you requested are kept, but are no longer linked to you. Deletion cannot be undone.
Children
LectioDive is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from them.
Changes to this policy
We may update this policy from time to time. When we do, we will post the updated version here with a new date.
