Privacy
Short version: this site and my apps don't collect anything about you. The apps keep your data on your own device. Below is exactly what goes over the network, and to whom.
This website
- No cookies, analytics, trackers, ads, fonts or scripts from other sites. The only script builds the email button.
- The site is hosted on GitHub Pages. Like any web host, GitHub sees the IP address of each visitor and may log it for security purposes, under the GitHub Privacy Statement. I don't receive or look at those logs.
- If you email me, I use your message and address only to reply. I don't add you to any list or share your email. The mailbox is hosted by Microsoft (Outlook.com).
My apps
None of the apps has accounts, analytics, crash reporting or ads. Your progress, files and settings stay on your computer or phone. Each app downloads updates from GitHub (or from the Microsoft Store or App Store if you installed it there). When it does, GitHub or the store sees your IP address, as with any download.
Beyond updates, here's what each app connects to:
Lingua
Nothing else. Lessons and speech are built in. Lingua privacy policy.
Bible Overview
Nothing else on its own. The Bible text, overviews and sermon lists are built in, so it works offline. If you choose a sermon or Commentary online, it opens that page in your web browser (Subsplash, SermonAudio, Bible Hub, Blue Letter Bible or Enduring Word), and that site handles your visit. Your notes and bookmarks stay on your computer.
Practice (memory verses and books of the Bible) asks for a name for each person practicing, such as a child's first name. The names and everyone's progress are saved only on your computer and are never sent anywhere. Remove a name in Practice to delete that person's progress. Mom’s Bible, the simpler edition, has no Practice.
Cairn Exam Prep
Downloads new question packs from GitHub when it opens and every six hours. If you flag a question, Cairn opens a Google Form in your browser, filled in with the question and your note. Google handles that form, and your email address isn't collected. Your study progress is never sent anywhere. Cairn privacy policy.
PDF Combiner
Nothing else. Your files, saved signature and passwords never leave your Mac, and passwords aren't stored.
MD to Word
Nothing else. Pictures linked from the web are never fetched; the document notes them instead.
Media Grabber
- Contacts the site of each link you paste (YouTube, Facebook, SermonAudio or Grace to You) to fetch that video, sound or transcript.
- Downloads its helper, yt-dlp, from GitHub on first use and checks GitHub daily for a newer version. Each download is checked against published fingerprints.
- The first time you make a transcript from speech, it downloads the speech model (about 150 MB) from Hugging Face. Transcription itself runs on your computer; your audio is never uploaded.
Trimming, joining, effects and photo conversion are all done on your computer.
GRC Workbench
Still in development. It's designed to send nothing anywhere unless you connect it to your own ticketing system. It will get its own policy when it's released.
