How We Use Your Information

AI Processing

Content you send to AI features — the Spiritual Director, Truth Lens, Wisdom Lens, and reflections or meditations — is processed by third-party AI model providers under their API terms. Where a provider offers that option, this content is not used to train their models. The provider may change over time, without an app update. Providers the service can route to today are xAI, OpenAI, and Anthropic. We retain chat history to maintain conversation continuity.
