Privacy Policy

When you register for Zion Connect, we collect the following information: • Your full name, email address, and phone number as provided during registration. • Your church membership details (church name, membership status). • Device information and usage data for analytics and performance improvement. • Any content you create within the app (e.g., messages, responses to announcements). We do not collect payment information directly — all billing is managed at the church level through secure third-party payment processors.

We use the information we collect to: • Provide and maintain the Zion Connect service for you and your congregation. • Send you notifications about church announcements, news, and updates. • Enable communication between church members and administration. • Improve our app features and user experience through anonymised analytics. • Respond to your support requests and queries. • Comply with our legal obligations. We do not sell your personal data to any third party, ever.

Your data is stored securely on Supabase's cloud infrastructure with the following protections: • All data is encrypted at rest and in transit using industry-standard TLS/SSL protocols. • Row-Level Security (RLS) policies ensure your data is only accessible to you and authorised members of your congregation. • No church can access another church's data — isolation is enforced at the database level. • Regular security audits are conducted to ensure ongoing protection.

We retain your personal data for as long as your account is active or as needed to provide services. Specifically: • Active account data is retained for the duration of your membership. • If your church administrator removes your membership, your account access is immediately revoked and your personal data is scheduled for deletion after 30 days. • You may request immediate deletion of your data at any time (see Section 5). • Anonymised, aggregated analytics data may be retained indefinitely.

You have the following rights regarding your personal data: • Access: You may request a copy of the personal data we hold about you. • Correction: You may update your profile information in Settings → Profile. • Deletion: You may request deletion of your account and associated data at any time by emailing support@zionconnect.app. • Portability: You may request your data in a portable format before deletion. • Objection: You may object to certain uses of your data by contacting us. To exercise any of these rights, email support@zionconnect.app with the subject "Data Rights Request".

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices or legal requirements. When we make significant changes: • We will notify you through the app or via email at least 14 days before the changes take effect. • The "Last Updated" date at the top of this page will be revised. • Continued use of Zion Connect after the effective date constitutes acceptance of the updated policy. We encourage you to review this policy periodically.
