Privacy Policy
Last updated April 9, 2026. This is a plain language summary of what the current codebase collects and why.
Who we are
Bible Notes is a web application that stores your study notes in a Postgres database you configure for your deployment (for example through Supabase). The operator of each deployment is responsible for answering privacy questions for that instance. This document describes the data the software is designed to process.
Account information
When you register we store your email address, a salted password hash, and related NextAuth adapter rows needed for credentials sign in. We do not store your password in plain text.
Notes content
Each note stores a title and JSON document from the Tiptap editor. That JSON can include passage text you inserted, your own writing, formatting, and metadata such as Bible references attached to passage blocks.
Cookies and sessions
NextAuth sets secure cookies so your session can persist. Supabase client middleware in this repo may refresh related cookies when configured. Decline cookies by not signing in, understanding that authentication will not work without them.
Third parties
The Bible insert experience calls YouVersion Platform APIs from the browser when you use that feature, subject to YouVersion terms and your app key configuration. We do not send your full note contents to YouVersion as part of routine saving; inserts happen when you trigger the picker.
Your choices
Delete notes you no longer want from the notes list. For account deletion or data export, the deployment operator must provide a process if one is not yet exposed in the product UI.
Contact
For privacy requests for a specific deployment, contact the administrator who gave you access to that environment.
