Privacy Policy

Summary

This site is a set of static pages. We do not run analytics, do not run advertising scripts, do not use tracking cookies, and do not maintain user accounts. The sections below describe, in full, the only two ways any data about a visit could leave your browser. The GOI Bible Android app is covered separately in section 0 below.

0. GOI Bible Android app

The GOI Bible app stores everything — your reading position, bookmarks, font/display settings, and any additional Bible-edition databases you add — locally on your device only. The app has no account system, no analytics or crash-reporting SDK, and shows no ads.

The app requests a single permission: INTERNET. It is used for exactly two things, both initiated only by your own taps:

• Downloading a Bible edition's .db file when you choose one from Settings → "Download .db". These files are fetched from this project's public GitHub repository (raw.githubusercontent.com); the request contains no personal data, just the file being fetched.
• Fetching a file directly if you paste a URL yourself into the manual "Download URL" field in Settings.

Nothing you read, bookmark, or download is transmitted anywhere. Uninstalling the app removes all locally stored data with it.

1. Server logs

Like virtually any web server, the server hosting this site may keep a standard access log containing the requesting IP address, the page requested, the date/time, and the browser's user-agent string. This is routine web-server housekeeping (used only for security and basic operational troubleshooting), is not linked to any identity, and is not shared with third parties or used for profiling.

2. Google Fonts

The page header loads the "EB Garamond" typeface from Google's font CDN (fonts.googleapis.com / fonts.gstatic.com). Requesting that stylesheet/font file causes your browser to make a direct request to Google's servers, which — as with any external resource — may receive your IP address and browser information as part of that request. We do not control what Google does with that request; see Google's own privacy documentation for details. If you would prefer not to make this request, you can use a browser extension that blocks third-party font/CDN requests; the page will fall back to your system's default serif font.

3. Local storage / cookie notice

This site sets no tracking cookies. The cookie-notice banner shown on first visit stores a single value (goibible_cookie_consent) in your browser's localStorage to remember that you've seen and dismissed it. This value is never transmitted to any server — it stays on your device. Clearing your browser's site data will reset it and show the banner again.

4. Data we do not collect

• No account registration, names, or email addresses
• No analytics (e.g. Google Analytics), heatmaps, or session recording
• No advertising or retargeting cookies
• No third-party social-media embeds or "share" widgets

5. Changes to this policy

If the site's hosting or font-delivery setup changes (for example, by self-hosting fonts to remove the Google Fonts request above), this page will be updated and the "Last updated" date revised accordingly.

6. Contact

Questions about this policy can be directed to the project maintainer via the contact details published on the project's source repository.
