Privacy
Privacy policy.
Effective date: October 19, 2026.
This policy covers two things from Jewish Wisdom for Life: the Daily Light iOS and Android app, and the website at jewishwisdomforlife.org. The short version: the app collects nothing personal, and we do not sell or share personal data.
Daily Light app
- No account, no personal data. You do not sign up or log in, and we do not ask for your name, email, location, contacts, photos, or any other personal information.
- Progress stays on your device. Your lesson progress, streak, hearts, XP, and daily mitzvah checklist are stored only on your device. We never receive them, and we cannot see or recover them.
- Sharing is your choice. If you tap Share on the Mitzvot tab, the app hands a short message to the standard iOS share sheet, and it goes only to the app and person you pick. Nothing is sent to us.
- Network requests. To show you texts and dates, the app contacts sefaria.org (to fetch Torah texts) and hebcal.com (to fetch Jewish calendar dates). Like any web request, these services can see your device’s IP address and the text or date requested. Their own privacy policies apply to what they do with that information. We do not send them anything that identifies you.
- No analytics, no ads, no tracking. The app contains no analytics SDKs, no advertising, and no third-party tracking of any kind.
Website
- Server logs. The site is hosted on Vercel, which keeps standard server logs (such as IP address, browser type, pages requested, and time) for security and reliability.
- Optional sign-in. If you choose to sign in on the website, authentication is handled by Supabase, and we store the account details you provide (such as your email address) and the activity tied to that account. Browsing the site does not require an account.
- Questions you ask. If you use the website’s companion to ask a question, the question is sent to our server and to an AI provider in order to compose an answer. Please do not include information you would not want processed this way.
Children
Daily Light and the website are not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone, including children. The app collects no personal data at all.
Deleting your data
For the app, delete it from your device and everything it stored is gone, since nothing is kept on our servers. For a website account, or any other request about your data, email us at support@jewishwisdomforlife.org (or elliotgoldman9@gmail.com if that address does not reach us) and we will delete it.
Changes to this policy
If we change this policy, we will post the new version on this page and update the effective date above. If a change ever affects how the app handles personal data, we will say so clearly in the app’s update notes.
