A PLAIN PROMISE
No ads. No following you around the web.
This is a household, not a storefront for your attention. We do not follow you around the web, we do not sell anything of yours, and we never will. We do count how many people open a page, using a tool that sets no cookies and cannot tell who you are. Here is what that means, said plainly.
"Let your communication be, Yea, yea; Nay, nay: for whatsoever is more than these cometh of evil."
— Matthew 5:37 (KJV)
- No advertising of any kind. No banners, no sponsored content, no AdSense.
- No advertising trackers, pixels, or fingerprinting.
- No selling, renting, or sharing of your data — there is nothing to sell.
- No pop-ups, exit-intent modals, or countdown timers.
- No email scraping. We do not buy or harvest addresses.
- No "limited time" pressure, ever.
- Serve the pages you ask for, and count how many were opened — nothing beyond that.
- Keep the daily teaching free, with no paywall and no account required.
- Store a small setting or two in your own browser (like your reading place) — these never leave your device.
- Let you read offline, through a service worker that only caches our own pages.
- Offer gentle, optional ways to support the household — never a demand.
About the one-time house-rules notice
When you say “no pop-ups,” you might wonder about the notice that greets first-time visitors asking them to agree to our house rules. Here’s the difference: the pop-ups and exit-intent modals we’ve promised never to use are the marketing kind — the ones trying to keep you from leaving, sell you something, or start a countdown clock. Our house-rules notice does none of that. It asks you to read four short, plain policies once, click one button, and it is gone from your browser forever. It doesn’t track you, doesn’t follow you around the site, doesn’t come back. We think of it less as a pop-up and more as a doorstep — the kind of thing you pass through once on your way into a home.
If you would like the longer, formal version, read our Privacy page. The short version is the one above: nothing of yours is taken, and nothing of yours is sold.
