Last updated: April 2026

  • Usage data: Which prayers, daily cards, and features you use (to personalize your experience)

Children's Privacy (COPPA Compliance)

HolyHome is designed for parents to use with their children. We take children's privacy very seriously:

No child accounts
Children never create accounts or log in. Parents control all data
Minimal data collection
We collect only first names and birthdates — the minimum needed for age-appropriate content
Parent-controlled
Parents can edit, update, or delete all children's information at any time
No public exposure
Children's data is never visible to other users, third parties, or parish dashboards
COPPA compliant:We comply with the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA). We do not knowingly collect personal information directly from children under 13. All children's data is provided and controlled by their parents.

AI-Generated Content

HolyHome uses AI (Anthropic's Claude) in two ways:

  • Pre-generated content: Daily Faith Cards, prayer explanations, and other content are generated by AI and reviewed by humans for doctrinal accuracy before being published. This content is stored in our database and served to all users — no personal data is involved.
  • Ask HolyHome (premium):When you ask a question, we send your message along with your children's first names and ages to generate a personalized, age-appropriate response. We do not send your email, last name, location, or any other identifying information to the AI.
AI transparency: All AI-generated responses in Ask HolyHome are labeled as AI-assisted. We encourage users to consult their pastor or the Catechism for definitive Church teaching.
