Privacy Policy
Last updated: October 27, 2026
The short version: what you write in Bloom is yours. We do not sell your information, we do not show ads, and we only share what is needed to run the features you choose to use.
Who we are
Bloom: Bible for Survivors ("Bloom," "we," "us") is a mobile app operated by Soul Navigators LLC, 1640 Clearwater Largo Rd, Clearwater, FL 33756. Questions about this policy can be sent to hello@bibleforsurvivors.app.
What we collect
Information you give us.
- The first name and recovery stage you choose during onboarding.
- Your conversations with Solana, our AI companion.
- Text you submit to Strategic Response.
- Entries you create in Document It, including dates, notes, and any photos or files you choose to upload.
- Journal entries, prayers, notes, highlights, recipes you create, and other content you write in the app.
- Your email address, if you choose to give it (see "Your email" below).
- If you use Sister Circle: the name you choose to show in each circle, the circles you create or join, and what you share there (prayer requests, praise reports, encouragement, revelations, check-ins, shared recipes, replies, reactions, photos, and GIFs).
- Reports and blocks you make in Sister Circle.
- Messages you send to us by email.
Information collected automatically.
- An account identifier created when you first open the app. You do not need an email address or phone number to use Bloom.
- If you allow notifications, a device push token so we can send Sister Circle notifications to your phone.
- Basic technical information needed to run the app, such as device type, operating system version, and error logs.
- Subscription status (for example, whether you are subscribed and when your plan renews). We never receive your card number or payment details. Apple handles all payments.
Bloom does not use advertising, advertising trackers, or cross-app tracking.
Recipes you create in My Recipes stay on your device unless you choose to share one in Sister Circle.
Your email
Your email is optional. You can give it during onboarding or when you enter a giveaway, and if you use Sign in with Apple, Apple may share it with us (you can choose a private relay address). We use it for your account, for giveaway entries and contacting winners, and, only if you check the opt-in box, to send you giveaway, app update, and book release emails. You can unsubscribe anytime. We never sell your email.
Giveaways
When you enter a Bloom giveaway, your entry and email address are used to run the giveaway and to contact you if you win. Entering does not sign you up for marketing emails. See the Official Giveaway Rules.
Sister Circle
Sister Circle is private. Only members of a circle can see what is posted in it. Circles cannot be searched, and there are no public profiles. You join a circle only by invitation, and members are shown by their name.
- Posts, replies, reactions, photos, and GIFs you share in a circle are visible only to members of that circle. Photos are stored privately and shown only to members.
- When you search for a GIF, your search terms are sent to GIPHY to show results.
- Your posts are stored on our servers so the members of your circle can see them. Other members can read, and may remember or screenshot, what you share, so share only what you are comfortable with them seeing.
- We do not read circle content as a matter of routine. Reports are reviewed by our team, and we may remove reported content or members to keep the community safe.
- When you delete a post, it is removed from the circle. When you leave a circle, your past posts may remain visible to members unless you delete them first.
Sign in with Apple
Signing in is optional and is needed only for Sister Circle. When you sign in with Apple, Apple shares an account identifier and, if you allow it, your email address. Signing in backs up your account, so you can sign in on a new device and get it back.
Notifications
If you allow notifications, Sister Circle notifications (such as new prayer requests, replies to your posts, and answered prayers) are delivered through Apple and Expo. Daily reminders are scheduled on your device. You can turn notifications off anytime in your device settings.
How we use it
- To provide the app and its features, including saving your content so it is there when you come back.
- To let Solana remember earlier conversations so she can respond with context.
- To generate responses in Solana and Strategic Response.
- To manage subscriptions and unlock paid features.
- To keep the app secure, fix problems, and enforce fair-use limits on AI features.
- To run Sister Circle, including showing posts to members, handling reports and blocks, and filtering abusive content.
- To reply when you contact us.
Who we share it with
We share information only with service providers that help us run Bloom, and only what each one needs:
- OpenAI processes your messages to Solana, your Strategic Response text, and voice conversations in order to generate responses. Under OpenAI's API terms, data sent through the API is not used to train their models and may be retained by OpenAI for up to 30 days for abuse monitoring.
- Supabase hosts our database and secure file storage, where your account identifier, conversations, Document It entries and uploads, and Sister Circle posts and shared photos are stored.
- Apple processes subscription payments through the App Store, provides Sign in with Apple, and delivers push notifications.
- Expo helps deliver push notifications to your device. It receives your device push token and the notification text, not your circle posts.
- GIPHY receives the search terms you type when you search for a GIF in Sister Circle.
- RevenueCat helps us manage subscription status. It receives your anonymous app identifier and purchase records, not your content.
- Faith Comes By Hearing streams Bible audio to the app. Their servers receive standard technical information, such as your IP address, when audio plays.
We do not sell or rent your personal information. We may disclose information if required by law, to protect someone's safety, or as part of a sale or transfer of the app, in which case this policy will continue to apply to your information.
How long we keep it
We keep your content for as long as you use Bloom so it stays available to you. If you ask us to delete your data, we remove it from our active systems within 30 days. Some information may remain briefly in secure backups before it is overwritten.
Your choices and rights
- Delete your data. You can delete your account and its data anytime in the app under Settings, then Delete Account, or by emailing hello@bibleforsurvivors.app.
- Access or correct your data. Ask us for a copy of your information or to correct it.
- Notifications. You can turn reminders off at any time in the app, and turn any notifications off in your device settings.
- Emails. Marketing emails are sent only if you checked the opt-in box. You can unsubscribe anytime.
- Subscriptions. Manage or cancel in your Apple ID settings.
Depending on where you live, including California and the European Union, you may have additional rights under local law. We will honor those requests.
If you use Bloom without signing in, your account is tied to this device, so deleting the app or changing phones can mean losing your saved content. If you sign in with Apple, you can sign in on a new device and get your account back. Recipes in My Recipes are stored only on your device.
Security
Your data is sent over encrypted connections and stored with access controls that limit each account to its own records. Uploaded files are kept in private storage. You can also turn on the in-app lock for extra privacy on a shared device. No system is perfectly secure, but we take protecting your information seriously.
Children
Bloom is made for adults. It is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect information from them. If you believe a child has given us information, contact us and we will delete it.
Safety
Solana is not an emergency service and does not monitor conversations in real time. If you are in danger, call 911 or your local emergency number. In the US, you can also reach the National Domestic Violence Hotline at 1-800-799-7233.
Changes to this policy
If we make meaningful changes, we will update the date at the top of this page and let you know in the app. Continuing to use Bloom after a change means you accept the updated policy.
