Privacy Policy
Last updated: October 27, 2026
Wick is built so your time with God stays between you and God. This policy explains what the app stores, where, and why.
What stays on your phone
- Your prayer journal and reflections.
- Your daily progress and streak.
- Your reminder settings.
This data is stored only on your device. Wick has no accounts and no sign-in, and your journal is never uploaded. We cannot read it.
What we collect
- An anonymous ID created automatically so we can reply to your feedback and send announcements. It is never linked to your name, email or any social account.
- Basic app settings: language, time zone, reminder hour, app version and platform — used to send at most a few gentle reminders if you stop opening the app, and to reply to your feedback.
- A push notification token, so we can deliver replies and announcements.
- Feedback you send, including the message and category you choose.
- Usage analytics (Google Analytics for Firebase): which screens and features are used, so we can improve the app. Analytics never include anything you write in your journal, prayers or feedback.
Advertising
Wick is free and supported by ads from Google AdMob. Ads never appear while you read, reflect or pray. AdMob may use device identifiers to show and measure ads. Where the law requires it (for example in the EU, UK, California and Brazil), we ask for your consent first, and you can change your choice in Settings. On iOS, Wick asks once whether ads may use your advertising identifier (App Tracking Transparency). If you choose “Ask App Not to Track”, it is never used and you still see ads, just less relevant ones. You can change this any time in iPhone Settings → Privacy & Security → Tracking.
Service providers
We use Google Firebase (authentication, database, messaging, analytics, App Check) and Google AdMob. They process data on our behalf under their own privacy terms.
Your choices
- Turn reminders, announcements and reply notifications on or off at any time in Me → Notifications.
- Delete everything from Me → Delete my data: your journal and settings on the phone, and the anonymous ID with any feedback linked to it in the cloud.
- Contact us to access or delete your data.
Children
Wick is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect their personal data.
Changes
If we change this policy, we will update the date above and, for important changes, let you know in the app.
