Privacy policy

Last updated 12 November 2026. This describes the Study Sermon app (package id app.studysermon) and this website.

Study Sermon is a Bible study app. You import a sermon (or use a built-in sample) and work through a short daily study, a quiz and a memory verse. This policy is written in plain English to match what the app actually does today.

What we store on your device

Most of your information stays on the phone or tablet where you use the app. That includes your name and church details if you add them, study preferences, imported sermons, notes, reflections, quiz answers, bookmarks, progress and reminder times. You can export notes, reflections, answers and bookmarks from Settings → Privacy in the app.

Accounts

The app can collect an email address and password if you choose to create an account, so your week and notes can follow you later. Sign-in with Google or Apple is shown in the app but is not connected to a live cloud account service yet. Until that is switched on, account details you enter are kept on the device. We will update this policy when a cloud account service is in use.

Notifications

Reminders are optional. If you allow notifications, the app can send local reminders (for example morning study or an evening quiz) on your device. We do not use those reminders to send marketing messages.

Subscriptions and payments

If you subscribe, payment is handled by Google Play or the App Store, not by a card form in Study Sermon. Those stores collect the billing information needed to charge and manage your subscription. We may see your subscription status (for example, whether Premium is active) so the app can unlock the right features. Cancel or change a plan in your store account.

This website

This site is a simple public website for product information and the legal pages Google Play and the App Store require. It does not require you to create an account. If the hosting provider (for example Cloudflare, once the site is published) keeps standard server logs such as IP address and pages requested, those are used only to operate and secure the site.

Sermon and Bible content

Built-in sample sermons were written for Study Sermon. Scripture quoted in the app is from the King James Version, which is in the public domain. If you import a sermon from YouTube or an upload, that content stays part of your study on the device. We do not claim imported sermons as our own.

What we do not do

• We do not sell personal information or use it for advertising.
• We do not use your notes, answers or sermons to train artificial intelligence unless you give clear permission.
• Study Sermon is a study aid, not medical, pastoral or professional advice.

Keeping and deleting data

On-device data remains until you delete it or remove the app. You can delete your in-app account and all local study data from Settings → Privacy, by typing DELETE to confirm. You can also follow the steps on our delete account page. Deleting the app data does not cancel a store subscription — you should do that in Google Play or the App Store first.

Children

Study Sermon is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from them.

Your rights

If UK or EU data protection law applies to you, you may have the right to access, correct or delete personal information, or to object to certain uses of it. Because most information is stored on your device, export and delete in the app are the quickest routes. You can also contact us using the details below.

Contact

Questions about privacy can be sent once a support mailbox is confirmed. The intended address is support@studysermon.com — this mailbox has not yet been confirmed, so please treat it as a placeholder until we publish a live address with the store listing. You can also use Help in the app.
