Privacy Policy

Last updated October 24, 2026

Who runs this site

Project Liturgy is an independently operated Catholic resource based in West Virginia, United States. Questions about privacy or your information can be sent to admin@projectliturgy.org.

This notice covers the main Project Liturgy website, its reading and lookup tools, prayer intentions, and support links. The Narthex forum is a separate service and is outside this notice.

Reading and using the website

You do not need an account to read the resources or leave a prayer intention. Project Liturgy's own page code does not include advertising or third-party audience-analytics scripts. Hosting, security, and external resource providers still receive technical information when your browser contacts them, such as your IP address, requested address, browser information, and request time.

Prayer intentions and reports

If you submit an intention, we receive its text, an optional first name, your confirmation that it can be public, and technical information needed to process the request. The prayer database stores the intention, display name, posting time, and whether it has been hidden. Leaving the name blank displays Anonymous; it does not make the network request anonymous to service providers.

Intentions are published immediately. They may also appear on the homepage and Breviary page. Anyone can read or copy a public intention, and search engines or other services may retain copies. Please do not include contact information, full names, medical details, or other private information about yourself or someone else.

A report records the reported intention, selected reason, and reporting time for the operator to review. Reports are not displayed as public comments. Reporting does not automatically remove an intention.

Cloudflare Workers processes prayer requests, Cloudflare D1 stores intentions and reports, and Cloudflare Turnstile checks submissions for spam. Turnstile loads when you open a submission or report form and processes browser and technical information for that check. Its verification token is sent to our Worker and checked with Cloudflare. See Cloudflare's privacy policy.

Removal and retention

There is no automatic expiry for prayer intentions or reports. The operator can hide an intention from the public list and restore it later. Hiding does not erase the underlying database record or its reports. If you want your intention removed or permanently deleted, email the address above with enough information to identify it. Please do not send an administrator key or unnecessary private details.

Public copies made by other people or search engines may remain after removal from Project Liturgy. Provider logs and backups follow the providers' settings and retention practices; this notice does not promise immediate deletion from every backup or third-party system.

Information saved in your browser

The Breviary uses local browser storage for bookmarks, appearance choices, recent visit dates, and development notices. The recent-visit feature keeps up to 60 recorded dates, not a fixed 60-day retention period. The page code does not send these saved values to Project Liturgy. They remain until replaced, removed, or cleared in your browser.

The prayer page's I prayed button changes only on that page. It does not create a public prayer count or record your identity. The administration page holds its entered key in memory rather than saving it in browser storage. Never enter that key on an unfamiliar page.

You can clear site data in your browser. Doing so also removes saved bookmarks and preferences. We cannot remotely delete information that exists only on your device.

Hosting and outside resources

Netlify hosts the website. Cloudflare provides domain services and the prayer service described above. These providers receive the requests needed to operate their services. See Netlify's privacy policy and Cloudflare's privacy policy.

Some pages load fonts from Google Fonts and development updates or calendar information from GitHub-hosted resources. Those requests disclose ordinary technical information to the receiving provider. See Google's privacy policy and GitHub's privacy statement.

The Mass locator sends the location you enter to masstimes.org when you choose Search. You can use a city or ZIP code instead of a street address. The Catechism lookup opens an external resource with the paragraph number you request. Their privacy practices apply when you use those services.

Support payments and email

The support button opens Venmo. Payment and banking details are handled there, not collected by a Project Liturgy checkout. The operator may receive the payer information and payment details Venmo makes available to recipients. See Venmo's privacy statement.

If you email us, we receive your address, message, and any attachments. Correspondence may be kept to answer questions, investigate corrections or permission issues, and keep a record of the exchange. Email routing and mailbox providers process those messages as part of delivering and storing them.

Your choices and requests

You can use the reading resources without posting publicly, clear browser storage, avoid outside services, or contact us about information you have provided. Depending on where you live, applicable law may give you access, correction, deletion, or other rights. We may need enough information to verify a request without collecting more than necessary.

The site provides general religious resources. If you believe a child has posted private information, please contact us so we can review it. Service providers may process data in the United States or other countries. No website or storage service can guarantee complete security.

Changes

We will update this page when the features or information practices described here change. The date above shows the latest revision.
