Privacy Policy
Last updated: February 2025
1. Introduction
Pro Bible ("we," "our," or "the site") is committed to protecting your privacy. We provide a free online Bible reading service that requires no login or registration and is intended for users of all ages.
This Privacy Policy explains what information we may collect when you visit our website, how we use it, and how we safeguard it. By using Pro Bible, you agree to the practices described here. If you have questions, please contact us via our Contact page.
2. Information We Collect
Because Pro Bible does not require an account, we do not collect personal information such as your name, email address, or password. We do not sell your personal data.
We may automatically receive certain technical information when you visit our site, including:
- Your device's IP address (which may be used to infer general location, e.g. country or region)
- Browser type and version
- Pages you visit and the time spent on them
- Referring website or search terms, if your browser sends them
This information helps us understand how visitors use the site, fix technical issues, and improve the service. We do not use it to identify you personally unless required by law.
3. Cookies and Similar Technologies
We use cookies and similar technologies (e.g. local storage) to improve your experience. For example, we may use them to remember your font size preference on the Read page or to understand how the site is used.
Third-party services we use (such as Google AdSense for advertising) may also set their own cookies. These are governed by those services' privacy policies. You can control or delete cookies through your browser settings; note that disabling cookies may affect how some parts of the site work.
We do not use cookies to track you across other websites for advertising purposes beyond what our ad partners may do in accordance with their own policies.
4. Google AdSense and Third-Party Advertising
We use Google AdSense to display advertisements on Pro Bible. Advertising helps us keep the service free for everyone. Google and its partners may use cookies and similar technologies to show you ads based on your visits to this site and other sites on the internet.
You can control how ads are personalized or opt out of personalized advertising:
- Google Ads Settings — manage your ad personalization and opt-out options
- How Google uses data when you use our partners' sites or apps
- Your Ad Choices (aboutads.info) — opt out of interest-based advertising from participating companies
We do not control the content of third-party ads. If you have concerns about a specific ad, please use the reporting options provided by the ad network or contact us.
5. How We Use Information
We use the information described above to operate, maintain, and improve Pro Bible; to analyze usage and trends; to protect against abuse or technical problems; and to support the display of advertising that funds the free service.
We do not share your personal information with third parties for their marketing purposes. We may share aggregated or anonymized data that cannot identify you. We may also disclose information if required by law, court order, or to protect our rights and safety.
6. Data Security and Retention
We take reasonable steps to protect the data we collect from loss, misuse, and unauthorized access. Because we do not collect account or payment information, the amount of sensitive data we hold is limited.
We may retain server logs and similar technical data for a limited period as needed for security, debugging, and improving the service. After that, we delete or anonymize such data where feasible.
7. Children's Privacy
Pro Bible is designed for a general audience, including families and readers of all ages. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you are a parent or guardian and believe your child has provided us with personal information, please contact us and we will take steps to delete it.
We encourage parents to supervise their children's use of the internet and to discuss privacy and safety with them.
8. Your Rights and Choices
Depending on where you live, you may have rights to access, correct, or delete personal data we hold about you. Because we do not maintain user accounts, we typically have minimal personal data. You can control cookies through your browser and opt out of personalized ads as described in Section 4.
If you have questions about your privacy or wish to exercise your rights, please contact us via the Contact page.
9. Changes to This Policy and Contact
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The "Last updated" date at the top will change when we do. We encourage you to review this page periodically. Continued use of Pro Bible after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
