3. AI Data Processing & Disclosure

MyBibleLens uses Large Language Models (LLMs) provided by third-party AI providers (OpenAI and Google Gemini) to power the Lens features. You should understand the following:

• Processing: When you submit text to any Lens agent, your input is transmitted to third-party AI providers for processing. These providers process your input to generate a response and return it to the Service.
• No Training on Your Data: Your personal reflections, journal entries, and spiritual content are not used to train, fine-tune, or improve any AI model — whether ours or those of third-party providers. We use API configurations that opt out of training data retention where available.
• Encryption in Transit: All data transmitted between the app, our servers (Supabase), and third-party AI providers is encrypted using industry-standard TLS/SSL protocols.
• Third-Party AI Provider Policies: Third-party AI providers may process your input in accordance with their own data handling policies. We encourage you to review the privacy policies of OpenAI and Google.
• Minimization: We transmit only the minimum content necessary for the AI to generate a response. We do not send your full account data, profile, or historical reflections to AI providers unless explicitly required by the feature you are using.

4. Data Storage & Security

• Infrastructure: All user data is stored on Supabase, a secure, SOC 2-compliant cloud infrastructure provider.
• Encryption at Rest: All personal reflections, journal entries, and user content stored in our database are encrypted at rest using AES-256 encryption.
• Encryption in Transit: All data transmitted between your device and our servers is encrypted using TLS 1.2 or higher.
• Access Controls: Access to the production database is strictly limited to authorized personnel. We employ role-based access controls and audit logs.
• No Guarantee: While we implement industry-standard security measures, no method of electronic storage or internet transmission is 100% secure. We cannot guarantee absolute security.

5. Data Retention & Deletion (Right to Erasure)

You retain full ownership of your data at all times.

• Retention Period: We retain your data for as long as your account is active or as needed to provide the Service. Inactive accounts may be subject to deletion after 24 months of inactivity, with 30 days prior notice.
• Right to Erasure: You may request the permanent, irreversible deletion of your account and all associated data — including reflections, journal entries, canvas data, AI interaction history, and your Apostolic Profile — at any time.
• How to Delete: Use the "Delete My Account & All Data" feature within the app settings, or email supportmybiblelens@gmail.com with the subject line "Data Deletion Request."
• Deletion Timeline: Upon receipt of a verified deletion request, all personal data will be permanently removed from our active systems within 30 calendar days. Backup systems will purge the data within an additional 60 days.
• Exceptions: We may retain certain data if required by law, to resolve disputes, or to enforce our agreements. Any such retained data will be limited to what is legally necessary.
