Holy Affirmations

Last updated 2026-07-12

Your declarations, journal, and streaks stay on your iPhone. Attribution events are consent-gated and never include journal content.

Holy Affirmations is built by Jacob Teague. This page explains what data the app collects, how it is stored, and what rights you have. We do not sell personal information, and user-entered app content is never shared with other users.

What stays on your device

Holy Affirmationsis local-first. There is no account to create. The following data is kept in iOS local storage on your iPhone, protected by your device passcode and Apple's app sandbox, and never leaves the device:

Your onboarding answers (name, struggles, desires)
Journal entries
Saved and favorited declarations
Streak history and reminder preferences
Subscription status and app settings

Delete the app and this data goes with it. You can also clear data without deleting the app from the app's Settings.

Attribution and app analytics

Holy Affirmations uses App Tracking Transparency–gated attribution tooling (AppsFlyer)to understand which marketing campaigns lead to installs and where people stop in the app flow. These tools only run after you respond to the iOS tracking prompt; if you deny tracking, the app falls back to limited measurement that does not use your device's advertising identifier.

Attribution events are intentionally limited: app name, anonymous device or install identifiers, campaign metadata, and privacy-safe funnel events such as app open, onboarding started or completed, paywall viewed, and purchase status. They never include the content you enter in the app — no health entries, journal text, photos, notes, personal numbers, names, emails, or account credentials.

Purchases

Paid subscriptions are processed by Apple through the App Store. The app receives a purchase status signal from RevenueCat, the purchase management provider, which validates purchase receipts from Apple. RevenueCat learns that you purchased — never what you entered in the app. Manage or cancel anytime in iOS Settings → Apple ID → Subscriptions.

A devotional tool, not counseling

Holy Affirmations is a Scripture-based encouragement and journaling app. It is not therapy, mental-health treatment, diagnosis, crisis support, or pastoral counseling.

Your rights

Delete your data:delete the app from your device — everything goes with it. You can also clear data from the app's Settings without deleting the app.
Export your data: where supported, export your data from Settings → Data → Export.
Tracking choice:you control attribution through the iOS tracking prompt and can change it anytime in iOS Settings → Privacy & Security → Tracking.

Children

This app is not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect information from children.

If this policy changes, we will update the "Last updated" date at the top of this page. Material changes will also be surfaced in the app.
