Privacy Policy
How Our Faith Explained handles your information
Last updated: 14 October 2026
What we collect
If you read the library without an account, we do not ask you for personal information.
If you create an account we store your name, your email address, and the preferences you choose — such as your denomination, your parish, and whether you would like the daily reading by email. If you save notes or a bookmark, those are stored against your account so they are there when you return.
If you make a donation we store your name, your email address, the amount, and the denomination and parish you chose to give at the time.
Card details
Card details are never stored on this server and never pass through it. Payments are processed by Authorize.Net, and the card is entered directly into their system. We receive only confirmation that a payment succeeded or failed, and a reference for it.
We use your email address to verify your account, to send you a receipt for a donation, to let you reset your password, and — only if you have asked for it — to send the daily reading. You can stop the daily email at any time from your profile.
Cookies
We use a session cookie to keep you signed in and a security token to protect forms from misuse. We do not use advertising cookies and we do not track you across other sites.
Your choices
You can view and change the information on your account at any time from your profile. If you would like your account and its contents removed, please contact us and we will do so.
