Privacy & Your Information

Grace Circle is a member community, not a confidential counseling service. Please share thoughtfully.

Information used to provide your membership

We store your membership email, a protected password hash, subscription identifiers and status, and sign-in sessions. Stripe processes payments; this website does not store your full payment card details. Password-reset links are sent through our email provider, Resend. Cloudflare hosts the website and membership database.

What other members can see

Your profile picture, display name, profile, interests, messages, and prayer requests are visible to active Grace Circle members. The member directory does not display your account email. Other members may copy what they see; please do not post another person's private information without permission.

Community concerns

When you report a message, we retain your account identifier, the message and author, your reason, and the review outcome for the site team. Reports are not displayed to other members. A copy may remain for review even if the original message is deleted.

Cookies and reading services

A secure cookie keeps you signed in. Wellness completion is currently saved in your browser, so it may remain on a shared device and does not follow you to another device. Fonts and Scripture readings use external services, which receive connection information such as your IP address. External reading links take you to websites with their own privacy practices.

Profile pictures

Photographs are cropped in your browser before upload. We store only the small cropped picture and remove embedded metadata. Pictures can be viewed by active members. Replacing a photograph or saving initials replaces the stored picture; members may still have retained their own copies.

Your choices

You can edit your profile and delete your own community messages. For questions about access, corrections, account deletion, or retained reports, email [email protected]. We may need to verify account ownership before acting. Some billing and safety records may need to be retained; deleting a profile or message does not cancel your subscription. Manage your subscription separately.

Contacting us

Email inquiries are ordinary email, not a secure clinical intake form. Please do not send passwords, card details, health histories, or private information about others. Contact us first to ask about an appropriate counseling intake route.
