Gospel AI is operated by Faba Development / Luke Fairbanks (“we,” “us”). It provides scripture and religious-content search and AI-assisted answers. Because prompts can reveal religious or philosophical beliefs, please choose carefully what you submit.
Depending on how you use the app, Gospel AI handles:
The app does not need precise location, contacts, photos, audio, financial information, health data, or payment-card information for its current features.
We use the information to authenticate accounts, provide search and AI answers, save and synchronize signed-in conversations, operate and secure the service, troubleshoot failures, prevent abuse, and respond to privacy requests.
Third parties handle data under their own terms and configured retention controls. OpenAI’s API data controls are described at https://developers.openai.com/api/docs/guides/your-data. Hugging Face describes Inference Provider security at https://huggingface.co/docs/inference-providers/security. Firebase privacy information is at https://firebase.google.com/support/privacy.
Signed-in conversations are stored in Firestore under the account’s Firebase ID and may also be cached on the device. Guest conversations are stored locally. Backend and provider logs can contain query-derived information; we are reducing that logging and intend to use short, security-focused retention.
No single fixed retention period currently applies to every stored conversation or operational record. Information can remain until you delete available content, clear local app data, request account/data deletion, or the service removes it under its operational retention process. Providers may retain limited security or abuse-monitoring records under their own policies.
You can use guest mode for local conversations, avoid submitting identifying details, delete conversations where the current app offers that control, clear local app storage, and sign out. The currently released app does not yet provide a complete in-app account-deletion workflow, and deleting a conversation parent may not remove every nested message record. To request access or complete deletion, email us with “Gospel AI privacy request” and the account email address. Do not include your password or prompts in the request.
We use platform authentication, access rules, encrypted network transport, and provider controls. No system can guarantee absolute security, and we review these controls periodically.
Gospel AI is not designed for children under 13 to create accounts or submit personal information without appropriate parent or guardian involvement. The current app does not implement age verification. A parent or guardian can contact us to request deletion.
Material changes will be posted here with a new update date. Questions and privacy requests can be sent to luke_fairbanks@icloud.com.
