Cookie Policy

Effective date: January 1, 2026

This Cookie Policy explains how T M Stafford LLC ("we," "us," or "our") uses cookies and similar technologies when you visit the Four Lens Framework™ devotional Bible study companion (the "Service"). It should be read together with our Privacy Policy and Terms of Service.

1. What cookies are

Cookies are small text files stored on your device by your browser when you visit a website. Similar technologies — such as local storage and session storage — also store small pieces of data in your browser. In this Policy, "cookies" refers to all of these technologies.

2. Categories of cookies we use

Strictly necessary

These are required to operate the Service and cannot be turned off without breaking core functionality. They are used to:

Keep you signed in to your account (authentication session tokens).
Remember your current study and sidebar state during your visit.
Securely process payments and subscription changes through our payment provider.
Protect against fraud, abuse, and security threats.

Functional

These remember choices you make so the Service behaves the way you expect — for example, your preferred theme, last-viewed study, or folder organization (VIP).

Analytics

We may use limited, privacy-respecting analytics to understand how the Service is used in aggregate (for example, which pages load and how often errors occur). We do not use cookies for advertising and we do not sell your information.

3. Third-party cookies

Some cookies are set by third-party providers we rely on to deliver the Service:

Authentication and database hosting — to keep your session active and authorize your requests.
Payment processing (Stripe) — to securely complete checkout, manage your subscription, and prevent fraud. Stripe's own cookie use is governed by its policies.
AI providers — transient request data may be processed to generate devotional responses to your prompts.

4. Your choices

You can control or delete cookies through your browser settings. Blocking strictly necessary cookies will prevent you from signing in or completing a purchase. You can also stop using the Service at any time; closing the tab clears the in-browser session state for that visit.

5. Do Not Track

We do not currently respond to browser "Do Not Track" signals, because there is no industry-standard interpretation of them.

6. Changes

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time. Material changes will be reflected by updating the effective date above.
