Pharos: Coptic Daily Privacy Policy

Pharos: Coptic Daily is built and published by CG Software Studio, the brand operated by CG Software Services LLC. You can reach us at support@cgsoftwarestudio.com.

We collect the following categories of information:

• Account information, only if you choose to sign in: your email address, the account ID provided by Google Sign-In, and an optional display name.
• Your synced content, only if you sign in to back up and sync: practices and practice logs, rest days, journal entries, highlights and notes, reading plans and progress, daily-office logs, and lesson results.
• A profile record: your chosen journey stage and whether onboarding is complete.

• If you use Pharos without signing in, your content stays on your device and is never uploaded — practices, journal, highlights, reading progress, reminders, and settings are stored locally only.
• No advertising, no third-party analytics, no tracking, and we never sell your data.

Information is used only to operate, maintain, and improve Pharos: Coptic Daily, to respond to support requests, and to meet legal and security obligations. We do not sell your personal information.

We rely on the following third-party services, which may process limited information to provide their functionality:

• Supabase — Hosts the database and authentication that store and sync your content. Access is protected by per-account Row-Level Security, so a row is only ever readable or writable by its owner. (privacy details)
• Google — Provides optional Sign-In. When you sign in we receive your email address, account ID, and (if available) name. Your use of Google Sign-In is also subject to Google's Privacy Policy. (privacy details)

Pharos: Coptic Daily does not use third-party analytics or crash reporting.

Synced data is kept while your account exists. You can delete content in the app at any time, and deleting your account removes all associated synced data. Content stored only on your device is removed when you delete the app.

To delete your account and all associated synced data, email support@cgsoftwarestudio.com from the address you used to sign in. Deleting your account cascades to remove your synced practices, logs, journal, highlights, plans, and profile. Content stored only on your device is removed when you delete the app.

Pharos is not directed to children under 13, and CG Software Services LLC does not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13.

All synced data travels over encrypted HTTPS/TLS connections, and server-side Row-Level Security ensures each account can access only its own data. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, but we work to protect your information.

We may update this policy from time to time. Material changes will be reflected by updating the effective date above and posting the revised policy on this page.
