Privacy Policy

Last updated November 6, 2026

William Dunn ("we" or "us") offers Beadless (the "app"), a prayer app for the rosary and chaplets, with the purpose of helping your discipline become devotion. We can be contacted by email at bdunn221@gmail.com.

What stays on your device

Your prayer log (the days you prayed and which prayers or mysteries you prayed), your streak, your goals, and your settings (colors, text size, reminder times, and Scripture and read-aloud choices) are saved only on your phone. They are never sent to us, and we cannot see them. Because your prayer log reflects your religious practice, Beadless keeps it entirely in your hands.

Since nothing is stored with us, we cannot recover or restore your information. Deleting the app, or resetting or losing your phone, permanently removes it. If your phone backs up app data to your Apple account, that backup is handled by Apple under its own privacy policy and not by us.

Anyone who can open your unlocked phone may be able to see your prayer log, so your device's passcode or screen lock is the best way to keep it private.

Notifications

The reminders you set on your goals, the weekly recap, and the midweek check-in are scheduled by your phone itself. No server sends them, and nothing about your prayer is sent anywhere to create them. You can turn them off in Beadless or in your phone's Settings at any time.

Recordings and Scripture

The recorded prayers, Scripture passages, and meditations are built into the app, and playing them does not connect to the internet. Links in the app to outside sites (for example the USCCB's pages) open in your browser, and those sites have their own privacy policies.

The App Store

If you download Beadless from the Apple App Store, Apple handles your download and any related information under its own terms and privacy policy. Apple may share general statistics with us, such as the number of downloads, and crash reports only if you have chosen to share them in your phone's settings. This information does not identify you to us.

If you email us

If you write to us at the address above, we receive your email address, your name if you include it, and your message. We use them only to reply to you. We do not add you to any mailing list, and we do not sell your information or share your message with anyone else unless the law requires it. We keep support messages only as long as we need them to help you.

Your choices

Because your prayer information never leaves your device, you control it directly and can delete it at any time by removing the app. For anything you have emailed us, you may ask us what we have, or ask us to correct or delete it, by writing to the address above. Depending on where you live, you may have additional rights under local privacy laws, and we will respond to requests made under those laws.

Children

Beadless is suitable for all ages, and the app collects no personal information, whether the user is a child or an adult. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13 by email. If a child has written to us and a parent or guardian would like that message deleted, please let us know and we will delete it.

Changes

If this policy changes, the new version will be posted on this page with a new date. As we do not have your contact information, you will not be notified directly. We encourage you to check this page from time to time.
