Privacy policy

Your inner life stays yours.

Effective and last updated July 20, 2026

Sacred Resolve is designed to minimize collection of sensitive spiritual information. Your journal, prayer responses, practice details, bookmarks, reminders, and journey history are stored locally on your device and are not sent to Tepesoft unless you deliberately include them in feedback or an export you choose to share.

Who operates Sacred Resolve

Tepesoft operates the Sacred Resolve iOS app, this website, the optional private Circle relay, and support services. Privacy questions can be sent to info@tepesoft.com.

Information stored only on your device

The core 70-day journey is local-first. Journey configuration and progress, accountability mode, journal entries, reflection answers, Bible bookmarks, reminder settings, timer state, Rule of Life plans, completion testimony, and locally entered partner details are stored in protected app storage. Tepesoft does not receive this information through normal app use.

You can export a readable copy from the app or delete all local app data. Deleting the app may also remove local data, subject to Apple's device and backup behavior.

Optional private Circle sync

If you create or join a private Circle, the app generates a random access token and encryption key. Circle content is encrypted on participants' devices before transmission. The relay stores a random Circle identifier, a one-way hash of the access token, opaque encrypted content, a revision number, and creation, update, and expiration timestamps.

The relay is not designed to read Circle names, encouragement text, or check-in content. Anyone who receives a valid invitation may have access to that Circle, so share invitations only with the intended person. Circle data expires after 90 days of inactivity and can be revoked from the app. Standard server security logs may temporarily include request time, route, response status, and network information needed to protect and operate the service; Circle tokens and encrypted content are excluded from application logs.

Feedback and support

If you submit the feedback form or email us, we receive the information you choose to provide, such as your name, email address, app version, message, and any diagnostic detail you include. We use it to answer your request, investigate problems, prevent abuse, and improve Sacred Resolve. Do not include journal entries, prayer requests, health details, or other sensitive information unless it is necessary and you intend to share it.

Feedback is delivered through Amazon Simple Email Service and our email hosting. Cloudflare Turnstile processes limited network and device information to protect the form from abuse. We retain support correspondence only as long as reasonably needed for the request, legal obligations, security, and product history.

Purchases

Apple processes App Store purchases, subscription status, payment details, taxes, refunds, and billing. Tepesoft does not receive full payment card numbers. The app uses Apple's StoreKit services to determine whether Pro features are available. Apple's privacy practices apply to its processing.

Website data

The website does not use advertising cookies or cross-site tracking. Hosting and security systems necessarily process limited technical information such as IP address, user agent, requested page, time, and response status. This information is used for delivery, security, reliability, and abuse prevention and is retained according to operational needs.

Analytics and advertising

The initial release does not include third-party app analytics or advertising SDKs. Tepesoft does not use journal, prayer, service, religious-belief, progress-photo, or private practice content for analytics, advertising, or sale. If this changes, the policy and App Store privacy disclosure will be updated before collection begins.

Sharing and disclosure

We do not sell personal information. We may use service providers only to operate purchases, email, hosting, security, and support. We may disclose information when required by law, to protect people or services, or as part of a legitimate business transfer subject to appropriate safeguards.

Children

Sacred Resolve is not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. A parent or guardian who believes a child submitted information can contact us for deletion.

Security and retention

We use data minimization, encrypted transport, protected device storage, end-to-end encryption for Circle content, token hashing, rate limits, and restricted operational access. No system can guarantee absolute security. Local app data remains until you delete it or the operating system removes it. Circle data expires after inactivity as described above. Support and security records are retained only for legitimate operational, legal, and safety needs.

Your choices and rights

You can use the core app without an account, disable reminders, avoid Circle sync, export local data, delete local data, revoke a Circle, and choose whether to contact support. Depending on where you live, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, restrict, or object to processing of personal information we hold. Contact info@tepesoft.com. We may need to verify a request before acting.

International processing and changes

Service providers may process information in the United States, Canada, Türkiye, or other locations where they operate, subject to applicable safeguards. We may update this policy as the product or law changes. Material changes will be posted here and, when appropriate, communicated in the app.
