5. Third-Party Services

The ANC App integrates with the following third-party services:

Each third-party service provider has its own privacy policies, which we encourage users to review separately.

We retain collected data only for as long as necessary to provide the App's services. Specifically:

  • Phone numbers and authentication data are stored as long as users maintain an active account.
  • Usage data is anonymized and retained only for analytics and troubleshooting purposes.
  • Users may request data deletion at any time by contacting us at app@anconnuri.com.

7. Children's Privacy

Our app's public content is accessible to all users. However, the prayer request feature, which requires phone authentication, is not intended for users under 13.

We do not knowingly collect, use, or disclose personal information from children under 13. If we become aware that we have inadvertently collected personal information from a child under 13, we will take immediate steps to delete the data from our records.

Additionally, we do not sell personal information, including for users under 16, in compliance with the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) and the California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA).

If you believe that a child under 13 has provided personal information through the ANC App, please contact us at app@anconnuri.com so we can remove the information.
