Privacy Policy for King James Bible with Apocrypha (KJVA Bible)
Last Updated: October 26, 2025
JoshTechApps ("we," "us," or "our") develops King James Bible with Apocrypha (KJVA Bible) ("the App"), a free, ad-supported application providing daily Bible verses, guidances, prayers, quizzes, highlights, note-taking, and customization features. User-initiated shares (e.g., verse images to X, gallery, or SMS) are handled by your device and not collected or tracked by the App. We are committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, share, and protect your information when you use the App.
Important Note About Advertising and Analytics: Our app uses advertising networks and analytics services that collect anonymized data independently. No user content (e.g., notes, highlights, shared images) is accessed. Please review their privacy policies:
Advertising Data: We use advertising networks (Google AdMob, Unity Ads, Vungle/Liftoff) to display ads (e.g., Interstitial, Native Advanced, Rewarded). These networks may collect anonymized device identifiers (e.g., Advertising ID), IP address (for country-level targeting), device type, and ad interaction data (e.g., views/clicks). No app content (e.g., notes, highlights, shared images) or SMS is accessed. See their privacy policies:
Analytics Data: Firebase Analytics collects anonymized app usage data (e.g., screen views, button clicks like quiz starts, session duration) and device basics (e.g., OS, model). No personal details or app content (e.g., quiz answers, notes) are collected, as outlined in Firebase Privacy Information.
Crash Reporting Data: Firebase Crashlytics collects anonymized crash reports (e.g., stack traces, device model, OS version) to improve stability. No user content or personal data is included, per Firebase Privacy Information.
Local Data: Notes, favorite verses, quiz progress, highlights, and customizations (e.g., fonts, colors) are stored locally on your device using Room persistence. This data is fully offline, not transmitted to our servers, and deleted upon app uninstall.
Notifications: If enabled in the App’s settings, we use device permissions to schedule daily verse/prayer reminders at 08:00 and 20:00. No content is tracked.
User-Initiated Actions: Shares of verses (e.g., images to X, gallery, or SMS) are handled by your device’s sharing system and not collected or tracked by the App.
No Personal Information: We do not collect names, emails, exact locations, photos, files, or SMS unless you voluntarily provide them (e.g., via email contact).
2. How We Use Your Information
Advertising: Ad networks (Google AdMob, Unity Ads, Vungle) use anonymized data to serve relevant ads and measure performance (e.g., click rates).
Analytics: Firebase Analytics data helps us understand user interactions (e.g., screen popularity) to enhance App features.
Crash Reporting: Firebase Crashlytics data identifies and fixes crashes for improved stability.
Local Data: Notes, favorite verses, quiz progress, and customizations provide personalized features within the App, stored offline.
We do not share local data, user content (e.g., notes, highlights, shared images), notification preferences, or device files (e.g., photos, SMS) with third parties. Our advertising and analytics partners may collect and process anonymized data independently:
Google AdMob: Shares anonymized device identifiers and ad interactions with ad partners (AdMob Privacy Policy).
Vungle (Liftoff): Uses data for ad targeting and measurement (Vungle Privacy Policy).
Firebase Analytics & Crashlytics: Shares anonymized usage and crash data with Google (Firebase Privacy).
4. Your Choices
You have the following options regarding your data:
Opt out of personalized ads by resetting your Advertising ID or disabling personalized ads in your device’s settings (e.g., Android Settings > Google > Ads).
Disable Firebase Analytics or Crashlytics data collection via device settings or by contacting us for assistance.
Disable notifications in the App’s settings or your device’s notification settings.
Delete local data (e.g., notes, favorites) by clearing the App’s data or uninstalling via device settings.
Manage user-initiated shares (e.g., verse images, SMS) through your device’s sharing permissions.
Review and manage ad preferences via our partners’ policies:
Local data (notes, favorite verses, quiz progress, highlights, customizations) is retained on your device until you clear the App’s data or uninstall it. We do not store personal data on our servers. Third-party data is retained per their policies:
The App is rated E for Everyone and is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you are under 13, please do not submit any personal information through the App. Parents and guardians are encouraged to monitor children’s internet usage to enforce this policy. If we become aware of such data, we will delete it immediately. Contact us with concerns.
7. Data Security
We rely on Android’s built-in security features, such as app sandboxing, to protect local data on your device. No data is transmitted to our servers, eliminating server-side breach risks. Third-party partners implement their own security measures per their privacy policies.
8. International Compliance
For users in the European Union (GDPR) or California (CCPA), you may have rights like data access or deletion. Since we store data locally and use third-party services for ads/analytics, exercise these rights via device settings or our partners’ privacy controls. Contact us for data subject request assistance.
9. Third-Party Services
Our app integrates with the following third-party services that may collect anonymized data:
Google AdMob - Advertising network
Unity Ads - Advertising network
Vungle (Liftoff) - Advertising network
Firebase Analytics - Usage analytics
Firebase Crashlytics - Crash reporting
Each service operates under its own privacy policy, and we encourage you to review them.
10. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy to reflect changes in practices, legal requirements, or third-party services. Updates will be posted here with a revised “Last Updated” date. Continued use of the App constitutes consent to changes.
