TALKTEMPUS

Privacy Policy

Last updated: October 16, 2026

1. What we store

If you use Talktempus without creating an account, we store nothing about you at all. The app runs entirely in your browser, and your current talk is kept only in that browser's own local storage on your device. (The optional chat assistant on our marketing pages works differently; see Section 3.)

If you create an account (by entering your email and a one-time code), we store the following, tied to that account:

Data	Why
First name, and last name if you give one	You enter your first name to start a trial; your last name is optional. We use them to greet you by name in the emails we send you.
Church bundle interest	A box you can tick at sign-up if you want to hear about a church bundle discount. It tells us to follow up with you about that, and nothing else.
Email address	To sign you in, tell you things about your account, and — for accounts on a free trial — send a small number of emails about getting the most out of that trial. See Section 5 to opt out any time.
Subscription plan and trial dates	To know what your account is entitled to
Stripe customer and subscription IDs	To connect your account to your billing, if you subscribe
Talk duration, pace accuracy, section count, and timing mode, per completed talk	To power your session reports and history

That last row is numbers only: how long a section ran, how close to on-pace you were, how many sections a talk had. Never the words of the talk itself.

2. What we never store

• The text of your manuscript, script, or notes, at any point, before, during, or after a talk.
• Any recording, audio, or transcript of you actually speaking. Talktempus has no microphone access and does not record talks.
• Your physical location.

3. Who else sees any of this

We use a small number of service providers to run Talktempus, each with access to only the specific data they need to do their job. None of them ever see your manuscript, because we never have it to share:

• Supabase hosts our database and handles sign-in. It holds the account data listed in Section 1.
• Stripe processes payments if you subscribe. It holds your payment details directly; we never see or store your card number ourselves.
• Resend delivers the emails we send you: sign-in codes, and, if you're on a free trial, the trial emails described in Section 1. It sees your email address for that purpose.
• Meta (Facebook) provides an advertising measurement tool, the Meta Pixel, that runs on our public marketing pages only (the home page, the pastors and church pages, and the documentation, tutorial and what's-new pages). It lets us see how many visitors come from our ads and which pages they view. It is never loaded inside the Talktempus app, so it does not run while you prepare or deliver a talk, and it cannot see your manuscript. If you visited our marketing pages and then start a free trial, our server also tells Meta that a trial started. That report contains scrambled (hashed) versions of your email, first name and account ID, the two ad-click cookie values Meta set on our marketing pages, and your browser's type, so Meta can match it to the ad. It never contains your manuscript, your talks, or payment details.
• YouTube (Google) hosts our welcome video. Inside the app it loads from YouTube's privacy-enhanced player only after you tap Play, so nothing is sent to YouTube unless you choose to watch.
• The Talktempus chat assistant appears on our marketing pages only, never inside the app. If you use it, it receives what you type into the chat box. It cannot see your manuscript or anything else on the page. Please don't type anything sensitive into it.

We do not sell your data to anyone, for any reason.

4. Local storage and cookies

Talktempus uses your browser's local storage to keep your current manuscript available offline and to remember your sign-in session. This stays on your device and is not sent to us as part of normal use. Clearing your browser's site data will remove it. The chat assistant on our marketing pages also keeps a random ID there so a conversation can continue. When you sign up on our pastors page, your first name and email are held in local storage for a moment so the next page can send your sign-in code, and are then removed from local storage. On those same public pages, the Meta Pixel sets cookies that Meta uses to measure ads. You can block them with your browser's cookie settings or an ad blocker, and Talktempus works the same either way.

Our web server also keeps basic request logs for up to 30 days: the page requested, the time, your browser type and a shortened IP address (its last part removed). We use them to see how visitors move through the site and to fix errors. On our ad landing pages the log also notes simple events, such as whether the page was scrolled or a button was tapped. They are never linked to your account, and they never contain cookies or anything you type.

5. Your choices

• You can delete your talk history (the numeric session data in Section 1) at any time from your account panel in the app.
• You can opt out of trial emails at any time. Every one we send has an unsubscribe link, and it takes effect immediately. This never affects the sign-in codes needed to use your account.
• You can delete your account entirely by contacting us — see Section 8.
• You can use Talktempus without ever creating an account, in which case none of the data in Section 1 is ever collected.

6. Children's privacy

Talktempus is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect account information from anyone under that age.

7. Changes to this policy

We may update this policy from time to time. Continued use of the Service after changes take effect constitutes acceptance of the revised policy.

8. Contact

Questions about this policy, or requests to delete your account, can be sent to hello@talktempusapp.com.
