Privacy Policy for Samson

Effective: November 9, 2026

Samson is an iPhone app that helps you find a Bible verse, what it meant when it was written, and a short prayer. This policy explains what happens to your information.

The short version

• Everything you do in the app stays on your phone.
• We do not collect your name, email, location or contacts.
• We do not run ads, we do not track you, and we do not sell or share your data.

What is stored on your device

The app keeps a few things in local storage on your phone so it can work:

• Verses you save.
• A history of which verses you completed (the verse, the category or "free-text", and the date). We never store the words you type.
• Your streak, which is worked out from that history.
• Your settings, such as the daily reminder switch and time.

This data never leaves your phone. We cannot see it. Deleting the app removes it, and Settings has a "Clear your data" option.

Words you type

When you type what is on your mind, the app uses that text on your phone to pick verses. In this version the text is not saved and is not sent anywhere.

Daily reminders

If you turn on the daily reminder, the app asks iOS for permission to send notifications and schedules them on your phone. No server is involved. You can turn the reminder off in Settings or in iOS Settings.

Sharing a verse

If you use the share button, the app makes an image of the verse on your phone and opens the iOS share sheet. What happens next depends on the app you choose to share with.

Scripture text

Verses are from the Berean Standard Bible, which is in the public domain.

Not medical or pastoral advice

Samson is not a substitute for medical care, mental health care, counseling or pastoral care. If you are in crisis or thinking about hurting yourself, call or text 988 (the 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline in the US), text HOME to 741741, or call 911 in an emergency.

Children

Samson does not knowingly collect any personal information from anyone, including children.

Changes

If we add features that change how your information is handled (for example, sending your text to a server to find verses), we will update this policy and ask for your consent in the app before it happens.
