Privacy Policy

Lifeline Rosary is committed to protecting your privacy and handling your personal information with care, transparency, and respect. This Privacy Policy describes how Lifeline Rosary collects, uses, stores, and discloses your personal information when you use the Lifeline Rosary mobile application (the "App") or visit its website.

This policy is prepared in accordance with the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth) and the Australian Privacy Principles (APPs) contained in Schedule 1 of that Act. By using the App or our website, you consent to the practices described in this policy.

1. Who Operates Lifeline Rosary

Lifeline Rosary is an Australian-based sole trader operating under the trading name Lifeline Rosary. For all privacy-related matters, please get in touch by clicking here.

2. What Personal Information Is Collected and Why

Lifeline Rosary's philosophy is to collect as little personal information as possible. Only information that is reasonably necessary for the App's functionality or for communicating with you is collected.

• Waitlist Email Address: When you join the waitlist via the website, your email address is collected. This is used solely to notify you when the App launches, to send early access invitations, and to communicate relevant updates about Lifeline Rosary. Your email will not be used for unrelated marketing without your explicit consent.
• Local Photos (Pray for Someone): If you choose to use Pray for Someone within the App, you may grant permission for the App to access your device's photo library. This access is used only to display photos locally on your device. No photos are ever transmitted, uploaded, or accessed by Lifeline Rosary. See Section 3 for full details.

3. How Photos Are Handled (Pray for Someone)

Your prayers and personal intentions are sacred. Pray for Someone was designed with this in mind.

• Strictly Local: Photos you select remain stored only on your device and are never transmitted externally.
• No Server Storage: Your photos are not uploaded, copied, or stored on any server, database, or third-party cloud service.
• Zero Access: Lifeline Rosary has no ability to view, retrieve, or access any photos used within the App.
• Your Control: You may revoke photo library permissions at any time through your device's system settings.

4. Waitlist Email — How It's Handled

When you submit your email to join the waitlist, your address is stored securely with Lifeline Rosary's email platform provider. This information is used only to:

• Confirm your place on the waitlist;
• Notify you when early access or the public launch becomes available;
• Send infrequent, relevant updates about Lifeline Rosary's development.

Your email address will not be sold, rented, or shared with any third party for marketing purposes. You may unsubscribe at any time via the link included in every email sent. Upon unsubscribing, your email address will be removed from the active list within a reasonable timeframe and permanently deleted within 30 days.

5. Subscriptions and Payments

Lifeline Rosary offers in-app purchases and subscription options processed entirely through Apple (App Store) and Google (Google Play).

• Lifeline Rosary does not collect, store, or have access to your payment card details, billing address, or any financial information.
• All payment processing is handled directly and exclusively by Apple or Google under their respective privacy policies and security standards.
• RevenueCat, a third-party subscription management platform, is used to verify purchases and manage subscription entitlements across Apple and Google. RevenueCat may receive anonymous purchase history data; it does not receive your payment card details.

You are encouraged to review Apple's and Google's privacy policies for details on how they handle your payment data.

6. Third-Party Services and Disclosure

Lifeline Rosary may use the following categories of third-party services in connection with the App and website. Each operates under its own privacy policy:

• Email Marketing Platform: Used to manage waitlist signups and send communications. Your email address is stored on their servers.
• Apple App Store / Google Play: Used to distribute the App and process in-app purchases.
• RevenueCat: Used to process and manage in-app subscriptions and verify purchases across Apple and Google. RevenueCat may receive anonymous purchase history; it never receives your payment card details.

Your personal information is not sold, traded, or otherwise transferred to outside parties except as described in this policy or as required by law.

7. Cross-Border Disclosure

Some third-party service providers used by Lifeline Rosary (including Apple, Google, and email platform providers) are based outside Australia and may store or process your information on servers located overseas, including in the United States. By using the App or website, you acknowledge that your information may be transferred to and stored in countries outside Australia that may not provide the same level of privacy protection as Australian law.

Reasonable steps are taken to ensure that any overseas recipients handle your personal information in a manner consistent with the Australian Privacy Principles.

8. Changes to This Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy may be updated from time to time to reflect changes in practices, technology, or legal obligations. When it is updated, the "Last Updated" date at the top of this page will be revised. Where changes are significant, a more prominent notice will be provided, such as an in-app notification or an email to waitlist members.

You are encouraged to review this policy periodically. Continued use of the App after any changes constitutes your acceptance of the updated policy.
