Morning Mercy
Privacy Policy
Last updated: November 7, 2026
Morning Mercy is a Christian prayer, Scripture audio, and private journal app published by Seldon Strategies. This policy covers its iPhone and Android editions. The app works without an account or a Seldon-hosted backend.
Data We Do Not Collect
Morning Mercy does not upload your journal, preferences, or listening activity to Seldon Strategies. The current app has no advertising, tracking technologies, third-party analytics SDKs, subscriptions, or in-app purchases.
Information Stored on Your Device
Your journal reflections and their dates, content preferences, reminder settings, favorites, listening history, routine progress, and prayer streak are stored locally on your device. Morning Mercy does not provide automatic synchronization between devices or keep an online copy of this information.
Deleting a reflection removes it from the local journal. On Android, confirming Erase local data removes the local journal, favorites, preferences, and listening history. Clearing app storage or uninstalling can remove your local journal and settings. These actions do not remove separate copies or device backups you may have made.
On iPhone, device backup and restoration depend on your Apple and device settings. The Android app's backup configuration excludes its private local data from cloud backup and device transfer. Morning Mercy does not provide its own backup or recovery service.
Notifications
If you enable a daily reminder, your device schedules it locally. Morning Mercy requests reminder notification permission only after you choose to enable reminders. Seldon Strategies does not receive your notification schedule.
Audio, AI, and Network Use
Morning Mercy's Scripture and prayer audio is included with the app and plays from your device. The app does not stream audio or call generative-AI services, and Seldon Strategies does not receive your listening activity.
Device and Store Services
Your device may communicate with Apple or Google for app distribution and operating-system services. Platform-provided backup, diagnostic, and usage reporting are controlled by your device, store, and their privacy settings. Those services are separate from Morning Mercy's local journal and are governed by their providers' own privacy policies.
Support Messages
If you choose to email support, your email service sends the message and any information or attachments you include. Morning Mercy does not automatically attach your journal. You can describe a problem without sharing private reflections.
Children's Privacy
Morning Mercy does not knowingly collect personal information from children or other users.
Changes to This Policy
We may update this policy as the app evolves. Any material change will be reflected on this page with a new last-updated date.
