Privacy
This page says what scarletthreadbible.com collects and how to switch it off. It describes what the site actually does. If that changes, this page changes first.
Who runs this site
scarletthreadbible.com is run by J&B Creations LLC, Michigan, USA. For anything about this policy or your data, email hello@scarletthreadbible.com.
There is no account
The site has no sign-in, no newsletter and no comments. It does not ask for your name, your email, or any other detail about you, so there is nothing of that kind to store or lose.
Analytics, only if you accept
If you accept analytics cookies in the banner, the site uses PostHog to understand how it is used and to spot errors: which pages are viewed, how far down a page you scroll, which links you click, and any JavaScript errors or failed requests the page hits.
These are keyed to a random identifier stored in a first-party cookie on your device that stays the same between visits, so your actions can be counted as one person's. It is not linked to your name, email, or account. PostHog also derives an approximate location (city level) from your IP address. We do not use session replay, and nothing here is used for advertising.
If you decline, none of it loads. No PostHog request is made at all. You can change your mind at any time using the Cookie settings link in the footer, and your choice is remembered on your own device for about six months.
Cloudflare Web Analytics
This site also uses Cloudflare Web Analytics, which is cookieless: it counts page views and records performance timings without setting cookies or storing anything on your device. Because it stores nothing on your device, it runs whether or not you accept analytics cookies.
Videos and YouTube API Services
Video pages embed YouTube through youtube-nocookie.com, which does not set YouTube's usual tracking cookies until you press play. Once you play a video, or follow a link to YouTube, you are in Google's hands under their policy rather than this one. The list of recent videos on the home page comes from YouTube's public RSS feed, fetched by this site's own server, so simply reading the page tells YouTube nothing about you.
The tools we use to manage our YouTube channel use YouTube API Services to upload and manage our own videos and read our own channel statistics. They reach only our own channel. This website does not use YouTube API Services and does not ask visitors to sign in with Google. We never access anyone else's Google account or data, and we store no Google user data about you. Google's own handling of data is described in the Google Privacy Policy, and using the embedded player means you are also under the YouTube Terms of Service.
Hosting
The site is hosted on Cloudflare Pages. Serving a page involves standard technical data such as your IP address and request details, used to deliver the site and protect it from abuse.
Mail sent to our address is forwarded through Cloudflare Email Routing to a mailbox we read. We keep what you send us so we can reply, and we do not add you to any list.
Links out
Pages here link to YouTube and to the texts of the confession and the catechism. Once you follow a link you are on someone else's site, under their policy, not this one.
Changes
If what the site collects changes, this page is updated before the change goes live.
