Privacy Policy

Last updated October 17, 2026

Radiant helps you learn Bible verses by heart. This policy explains what information the app keeps, where it goes, and the choices you have. Radiant is made by Elisha Coad ("we", "us").

The short version

• You can use Radiant without an account. Your progress then stays on your phone.
• If you create an account, we keep a copy of your progress so you can restore it, and the things you choose to share with friends.
• We don't show ads, sell your information, or use it to track you across other apps and websites.
• You can delete your account in the app at any time.

Without an account

Your verses, reviews, streak, achievements and settings are stored only on your device. To show a verse, the app asks a Bible text service for that passage (see Service providers below). Those requests contain the passage and translation, not who you are.

With an account

When you sign in with Apple, Google or an emailed code, we store:

• Account details: your email address (or Apple's private relay address if you chose to hide yours), an account identifier from Apple or Google, your display name, an optional profile photo, an optional username, and your time zone.
• Your progress: the verses you've added, how far along each one is, your daily review history, achievements and app settings. This copy lets you restore your progress on a new device.
• Your streak, so friends can see it.

Friends and groups

Social features are optional. When you use them, we store your friend connections and requests, the groups you belong to, the verses and moments you share (a reference such as "Psalm 46:10" and a translation name, never the verse text), the notes and replies you write, and hearts.

What friends can see: your name, photo, username, streak, number of Radiant verses, the verses you're currently learning, and your achievements. People in your groups can see your name and photo and whether you've started the group's verse. Verses you mark private are never shown to anyone. Nobody outside your friends and groups can see your profile.

If you block someone, you stop seeing each other in Radiant. If you report something, we store the report and review it.

Notes and replies

Notes and replies are checked automatically for links and unkind words before they're sent. They're visible only to the people you send them to.

Service providers

We use a small number of companies to run Radiant. They process information only to provide their service to us.

• Supabase hosts our database and stores account data, in the United States.
• Resend delivers sign-in code emails.
• Apple and Google handle Sign in with Apple and Sign in with Google.
• Expo builds and updates the app.
• Bible text services (Crossway's ESV API, bolls.life and bible-api.com) return the text of passages you view. They receive the passage and translation only.

How long we keep it

We keep your account data while you have an account. When you delete your account, your account, progress, friendships, group memberships and everything you shared are erased right away, and removed from our backups within 30 days. If you signed in with Apple, we also revoke Radiant's access with Apple.

Your choices

• Use Radiant without an account, or sign out at any time. Signing out keeps your progress on the phone.
• Change your name, photo and username in Settings, and mark any verse private.
• Delete your account in Settings › Account › Delete account.
• Ask us for a copy of your data, or for help with any of the above, at support@radiantscripture.com.

Children

Radiant is not directed at children under 13, and we don't knowingly collect information from them. Friend requests found by username must be accepted, and profiles are visible only to friends and group members. If you believe a child under 13 has created an account, contact us and we'll delete it.

Security

Information is sent over encrypted connections and access to it is restricted, so each person can reach only their own data and what friends chose to share with them. No system is perfectly secure, but we work to protect what you trust us with.

Changes

If we change this policy, we'll update the date at the top, and tell you in the app if the change is significant.
