Effective: November 5, 2026
Gospel with Abby (“we,” “our,” or “us”) is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and safeguard information when you use our AI Bible companion at gospelwithabby.com and app.gospelwithabby.com(the “Service”).
Anonymous Session Tokens. When you first open the app, we generate a random anonymous session token stored locally on your device. This token is not linked to your name, email, or any personal identifier.
Chat Messages. When you send a question to Abby, your message is sent to our servers and to OpenAI to generate a response. We log the first 200 characters of each message, with the time and either your account ID or, for guests, the anonymous session token and a keyed hash of your IP address (never the address itself). When automated safety checks flag a message, we also keep the first 2,000 characters of the reply to it. We use this log to enforce daily limits, review messages flagged by automated safety checks, and fix problems. If you are signed in, your conversations are also saved to your account so you can return to them, and you can delete any conversation at any time.
Accounts. Accounts are optional. If you create one (with email and password, or with Google), we store your email address, your plan (free or Support Partner), and when your account was created and last used. If you give as a Support Partner, we keep records of your gift (your name, email address, the amount, the date and the payment reference) for as long as we need them for our records and as the law requires. Payment providers that process a gift also apply their own privacy policies. If you use our contact form, we keep your message, the email address and name you give, and a keyed hash of your IP address (to handle abuse). If you report one of Abby's answers, we keep your report, the question and answer you report, and an email address only if you give one. If you subscribe to updates on our website, we keep your email address until you unsubscribe at app.gospelwithabby.com/unsubscribe. We send these updates through Resend, an email delivery service, which receives your email address and the emails we send you; every email has a link to unsubscribe.
Local Preferences.Your theme, translation, persona and language settings are stored on your device in your browser storage. The translation, persona and language you choose are sent with each message so Abby can answer accordingly.
We use the following third-party services to operate Gospel with Abby:
On our website (gospelwithabby.com, not the chat app) we also use Google Analytics and Plausible Analytics to understand how visitors find and use the site. They receive the pages you view, the referring site, your browser and device type, and your approximate location. We do not sell, rent, or share your data with advertisers or data brokers.
The chat app (app.gospelwithabby.com) does not use tracking cookies. Our website (gospelwithabby.com) uses Google Analytics, which sets cookies (such as _ga) to tell visits apart; Plausible does not use cookies. You can block these cookies in your browser settings, or opt out of Google Analytics at tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout. We use browser local storage and secure storage solely to save your preferences, your anonymous session token, and, if you sign in, your login session on your device.
Saved conversations stay in your account until you delete them. We remove the message text from the message log after 30 days and delete its entries after 90 days. Contact form messages and answer reports are deleted 12 months after they arrive. Email addresses for updates are kept until you unsubscribe. Our server logs, which Google Cloud keeps for 30 days, also contain the first 80 characters of messages that our safety checks flag or that fall outside the topics Abby covers. You can ask us to delete your account, conversations, and log entries at any time (see section 8).
Gospel with Abby is suitable for all ages. You can use it without an account. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13; if you believe a child has created an account, contact us and we will delete it.
All data transmitted between your device and our servers is encrypted using HTTPS/TLS. We follow industry-standard security practices to protect the Service infrastructure. Only you can read your saved conversations in the app; Gospel with Abby administrators can access stored data only for safety, support, and fixing problems.
You can delete saved conversations in the app at any time. To get a copy of your data, or to have your account and all data linked to it deleted, email us at the address below and we will respond within 30 days.
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Changes will be posted on this page with an updated effective date. Continued use of the Service after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
