Privacy Policy

Overview

Selah is a faith-based Bible engagement app. We respect your privacy and designed Selah to work without requiring an account.

Information we collect

Selah does not require an account or ask for your name, email address, contacts, or location. Scripture typing progress, bookmarks, and preferences are stored locally on your device using browser or app storage. They are not uploaded to a Selah account or cloud database.

The app loads its interface from Vercel and requests Scripture from AO Lab's Free Use Bible API or, for supported translations, through our server's YouVersion API integration. These requests disclose technical information such as your IP address, request time, requested URL, browser or device information, and response status to the service handling the request. The YouVersion proxy sends the Bible request from our server without forwarding your IP address, typing progress, or bookmarks.

Service providers may retain request and security logs to deliver content, prevent abuse, and diagnose problems. These logs can remain after a request has completed. We do not promise that technical request data is never collected. Provider retention periods and privacy practices are governed by their own policies.

Analytics

Selah does not include analytics or advertising tracking SDKs and does not use advertising identifiers. We do not sell personal information or combine your activity with other apps for targeted advertising. Hosting and Bible content providers may process service usage and diagnostic information as described above.

Read more about Vercel's privacy practices, AO Lab's Free Use Bible API, and YouVersion's privacy practices. Provider requests are made over HTTPS. Our hosting and content providers may process requests outside your country.

Your choices and local data

You can use the app without creating an account. Clear app or browser storage, or remove the app, to delete locally stored progress, bookmarks, preferences, and cached passages. Exported files remain wherever you choose to save them. An internet connection is needed to open the app and obtain new passages.

Children

Selah is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect information from children.

Changes and contact

We may update this policy as Selah evolves. For privacy questions, contact the developer through the Selah project repository.
