In short
- Libellum needs no account and shows no ads.
- The app contains no tracking, analytics or crash reporting services.
- Bookmarks, notes, collections and settings stay on your device. We never receive them.
- The app only connects to the internet when you open the list of available Bibles or download a Bible.

Data on your device
Everything you create in Libellum (bookmarks, notes, collections, memorization progress, reading position and settings) is stored only locally in the app. Uninstalling the app deletes this data.
If you have device backup turned on, Android may back up this data to your Google account. You control this in the Android settings; the backup is held by Google, not by us. If you export your data to a file, you decide where it is stored.
Bible downloads and website
The app downloads Bible translations and the list of available Bibles from libellum.app. Some translations are downloaded directly from eBible.org. Each request transmits technically necessary connection data: IP address, time, requested file and the app or browser identifier. The same applies when you visit the website libellum.app.
We use this data only to deliver the files and to keep the service secure (legal basis: legitimate interest, Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR). It is not analysed, not combined with other data and is normally deleted after 14 days.
The website and downloads are served through Cloudflare (Cloudflare, Inc., USA) as a data processor so that they are fast and protected. Data may be transferred to the USA in the process; Cloudflare is certified under the EU-US Data Privacy Framework. Downloads from eBible.org are subject to eBible.org's privacy policy.
Notifications, read-aloud and sharing
The app schedules the verse of the day itself on your device; no data is sent to us for this. Read-aloud uses your device's text-to-speech engine, which is subject to its provider's terms, such as Google's. When you share, the app passes text or an image to the app you choose in the Android share menu.
Links to charities and other websites open in your browser, where the privacy policy of that website applies.
Your rights
You have the right to access, rectification, erasure, restriction of processing, data portability and to object. Just write to hello@libellum.app. You can also lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, in Austria the Datenschutzbehörde.
Changes
If the app changes, we will update this policy. The version published here always applies.
