Veritas AI

Privacy Policy

Last updated 15 September 2026 · Plain English

The short version

Veritas AI is a Bible reading and spiritual guidance app. Almost everything you do in it lives on your own phone. A few things leave your phone, and this page says exactly what, where, and why. We do not sell your data and we do not show ads.

1. What stays on your device

Your name, profile photo, reading streak, saved verses, prayers, Bible translation choice, onboarding answers and your chat history are stored on your phone. If you never sign in, that is where they stay. Deleting the app deletes them.

2. Syncing when you sign in

If you sign in with Apple, the same data — including your profile photo — is also stored in our database (hosted by Supabase) so it follows you to a new phone. We receive your name and email from Apple, and an account ID. Apple lets you hide your real email; that works fine with Veritas.

3. AI features and OpenAI

Veritas uses OpenAI to write replies and to turn speech into words. When you chat with Veritas, ask it to help with a prayer, use voice mode or speak a prayer, your messages and voice audio are sent to OpenAI, which processes them on our behalf only to provide that feature. OpenAI does not use data sent through its API to train its models. It keeps chat messages and voice mode conversations for up to 30 days to monitor for abuse, and does not keep audio that is only being turned into words. The app asks your permission before sending anything, and you can turn this off at any time in Account.

Chat messages and spoken prayers go through our own server to OpenAI. In voice mode, your voice is streamed directly to OpenAI using a short-lived key our server issues for that conversation, and the written transcript is saved into your chat history like any other message. We do not store the audio itself, and we do not send your name or email to OpenAI.

4. Analytics

We use PostHog to understand how the app is used — which screens are opened, which buttons are tapped, where people get stuck. These usage events are linked to your account ID if you sign in. We do not record your screen or your sessions, and the analytics never include the content of your messages or prayers. This helps us make the app better; it is not shared with anyone else.

5. Crash reports

If the app crashes, a report goes to Sentry with technical details about what happened (device model, OS version, the error) and, if you are signed in, your account ID. It does not include your messages or prayers.

6. Purchases

Subscriptions are bought through Apple. Apple handles the payment; we never see your card. RevenueCat, our subscription service, receives an anonymous receipt so the app knows your subscription is active on any of your devices.

7. Children

Veritas AI is not for children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect data from anyone under 13. If you believe a child has been using the app with an account, contact us and we will delete it.

8. Deleting your account and data

In the app: open your profile (the picture at the top right) and choose Delete account. That immediately deletes your account, your synced data and your profile photo from our database, and clears the app on your phone. If you never signed in, Reset this phone wipes everything stored on the device. Usage and crash records linked to your account ID at PostHog, Sentry and RevenueCat can also be removed — email us from the address on your account and we will do it within 30 days and confirm by reply. Subscriptions are cancelled separately in iOS Settings; deleting your account does not cancel one.

When you delete your account we permanently delete your personal data (your profile, chats, prayers and notes). We keep anonymous statistics that can't identify you — for example when accounts were created and deleted, the country, and an optional reason you gave — and purchase records we're required to keep.

9. Who we share data with

Each of these processes data on our behalf and under their own privacy terms. Nobody else. We never sell personal data.

10. Content sources

Bible texts in the app are public-domain translations. Artwork comes from museum open-access collections and is credited in the app where it appears. None of this involves your data; we mention it so you know where the words and pictures come from.

11. Changes

If this policy changes in a way that matters, we will update the date at the top and tell you in the app. Continuing to use Veritas after that means you accept the new version.
