Romanian Reader shows Romanian and English church texts side by side. This page says what it keeps about you and why.

Reading

You can read shared passages without an account. Your reading settings (text size, which language leads, the theme) stay in your browser and never reach the server.

When you sign in

You sign in with Google or with a code sent to your email. The app then keeps:

• your name and email address, from your sign-in;
• whether the site owner has approved your account, and whether you can add passages;
• the passages you save to your library, and when you last opened each one;
• for editors, the passages you add or change, with their version history.

These are used only to run the app: to show your library and to let you edit your own passages. Nothing is sold, shared for advertising, or used to track you across other sites. The app has no ads and no analytics.

New accounts wait for the site owner's approval. The site owner can see each account's name, email address, when it signed up and last signed in, and how much it reads, saves, and adds.

Who handles it

The app runs on Vercel. Its data is stored with Neon (the database) and Vercel (recordings). Clerk handles sign-in, and Google too if you choose it. Resend sends the app's emails, such as the note that your account is approved.

Removing your data

To delete your account and everything the app keeps about you, email skirkby@kirkby.org. You can remove passages from your library yourself at any time.
