Selah Privacy Policy
Selah is a quiet, personal devotional space. Your privacy matters to us, so this policy is short and honest.
Last updated: 17 July 2026
The short version
Selah has no accounts. Your prayer streak, favorites, themes, and preferences stay on your device, and we never see them.
The one thing that does leave your phone is a small amount of anonymous usage data (such as which onboarding step you stopped on), which helps us improve the app. Details are below.
What Selah stores
Your prayer streak, followed topics, favorite verses and prayers, custom quotes, and theme choice are saved only on your iPhone. We have no accounts and no server that holds your content, and we never see any of it.
Anonymous usage analytics
To understand where people get stuck — for example, which onboarding step someone leaves on — Selah sends a small amount of anonymous usage data to a private dashboard we run ourselves. This is how we find and fix confusing parts of the app.
What is sent:
- A random, anonymous IDcreated on your device. It is not your name, email, Apple ID, or account, it isn’t linked to any of them, and we can’t use it to identify you.
- Which step you reached — for example that an onboarding page appeared, that onboarding finished, that the subscription screen was shown or closed, or that a purchase completed — and when.
- Basic technical context — the app version and how many seconds a session lasted.
What is never sent:
- Your prayers, custom quotes, favorites, streak, or which verses you read.
- Your name, email address, Apple ID, or payment details.
- Any advertising identifier — Selah contains no advertising or third-party tracking SDKs.
This data goes only to our own private dashboard, stored in a database hosted in the European Union (Frankfurt). It is never sold, never shared with advertisers, and never used to build a profile of you. We use no third-party analytics services such as Google Analytics or Facebook.
Legal basis (GDPR). We rely on our legitimate interests (Art. 6(1)(f)) in understanding and improving the app, using data that is anonymous and kept to the minimum needed. You have the right to object to this at any time — just email us at support@iosvisual.com.
Notifications
Daily verse reminders are scheduled locally on your device. No reminder content ever leaves your phone.
Purchases (Selah+)
Selah+ subscriptions are handled entirely by Apple through the App Store. We never see your payment details or Apple ID.
Children
Selah is a general-audience app and is not directed at children. We do not knowingly collect personal data from children — the only data the app sends is the anonymous usage data described above, which cannot identify anyone.
