Privacy Policy — Ezras Nashim App
Last Updated: 05/05/2026
Ezras Nashim ("we," "us," or "our") operates the Ezras Nashim mobile application (the "App"). This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and protect your personal information when you use our App.
Information We Collect
Information You Provide
- Account Information: When you create an account, we collect your email address and name. You may optionally provide a Hebrew name.
- Donation Information: When you make a donation through the App, your payment is processed by Stripe, our third-party payment processor. We do not store your credit card number. We retain donation amount, date, and any dedication message you provide.
- Prayer Requests & Tehillim Chains: If you create or join a Tehillim chain, we store the intention text and chapter assignments you provide.
- Feedback: Any feedback or messages you submit through the App.
Information Collected Automatically
- Device Identifier: We generate a random, anonymous device identifier to track your mitzvah completions and app preferences. This identifier is not linked to your device's hardware ID.
- Location Data: With your permission, we access your device's location to provide location-based features such as prayer times (Zmanim), Shabbat candle-lighting times, and the Kotel Compass. Location data is processed on your device and through the Hebcal API; we do not store your precise location on our servers.
- Push Notification Token: With your permission, we use OneSignal to deliver push notifications. OneSignal receives a device token to route notifications. You can disable notifications at any time in your device settings.
- Usage Data: We track which mitzvah categories you engage with (Torah, Tefilla, Tzedaka, Life) to display your personal progress and analytics. This data is associated with your account or device identifier.
How We Use Your Information

- To process donations and provide receipts.
- To send push notifications you have opted into (e.g., daily reminders, new content).

- To facilitate Tehillim chains and community features.
- To calculate and display community-wide statistics (aggregated and anonymized).
Third-Party Services
We use the following third-party services that may receive your data:
- Supabase (database and authentication): Stores your account information, mitzvah records, and app content. Supabase Privacy Policy
- Stripe (payment processing): Processes donation payments. Stripe receives your payment card details directly; we never see or store your full card number. Stripe Privacy Policy
