Hide the Word

Privacy policy

Jamdog Software collects no personal information. What the app stores stays on your device and, if you choose, in your own iCloud account.

Effective date: October 29, 2026

Information we do not collect

We do not collect:

  • Personal identifiers (name, email, phone)
  • Location data
  • Analytics or tracking data of our own
  • Advertising identifiers

Your data

Hide the Word stores the following data:

  • Display name (optional): a name you can set for personalization
  • Your sets and stacks: the study sets and stacks you build
  • Study progress: your verse learning progress, streaks and session history
  • Preferences: reading font, highlight colors and app settings

This data:

  • Is stored on your device and optionally in your personal iCloud account
  • Is not accessible to us
  • Is not shared with any third parties
  • Can be deleted by uninstalling the app or through your iCloud settings

iCloud sync

If you have iCloud enabled, Hide the Word can sync your study progress across your devices using Apple’s CloudKit service. This data:

  • Is stored in your personal iCloud account, not on our servers
  • Is protected by your Apple Account and Apple’s security measures
  • Is not accessible to Jamdog Software or any third parties
  • Can be managed through your device’s iCloud settings

For more information about how Apple handles iCloud data, see Apple’s Privacy Policy.

Shared stacks

When you share a stack, its name, the name of its study set, whether it is shuffled and its verse references travel in the link. Nothing else goes in it: no progress, no account and no device information.

Anyone with the link can see them, and our web host processes the request like any page visit.

Crash reports from Apple

If you choose to share analytics with app developers in your device’s settings, Apple may provide us anonymous crash reports and usage statistics.

This website

This website sets no cookies and runs no analytics. It is hosted on GitLab Pages, which handles each request as any web host does, under GitLab’s privacy statement.

Third-party services

Hide the Word does not integrate any third-party analytics, advertising or tracking services.

Children’s privacy

Hide the Word does not collect personal information from anyone, including children under 13.

Changes to this policy

We’ll post changes here with a new effective date.
