Document 3: Privacy Policy & Data Protection Statement

1. Introduction and Data Controller Status Welcome to Bible Verse Media Inc. We respect your privacy and are deeply committed to protecting your personal data. This privacy policy informs you how we collect, handle, and safeguard your personal data when you visit our website, participate in our crowdfunding campaigns, enroll in the Cinematic AI Video Academy, or interact with our conversational AI tools. For the purposes of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and related global data privacy laws, Bible Verse Media Inc. acts as the Data Controller of your personal information.

2. The Data We Collect We limit the collection of personal data to what is strictly necessary to operate our platform and provide you with value. We may collect, use, and store the following categories of data:

  • Identity & Contact Data: First name, last name, username, and email addresses provided through waitlists, chat widgets, or Academy registrations.
  • Transaction Data: Details regarding voluntary donations or subscriptions made through secure third-party payment gateways. (Note: We do not directly store your credit card numbers on our servers).
  • Audio & Biometric Data: For users utilizing our interactive AI Theological Advisor, we temporarily process voice inputs (audio questions) to generate responsive audio answers.
  • Technical Data: Internet protocol (IP) addresses, browser types, time zone settings, and operating system details collected automatically during your visit.

3. Legal Basis and Purpose for Processing Data We only process your personal data when legally permitted. Our primary legal bases for processing include:

  • Consent: When you explicitly sign up for our email newsletters or activate the microphone to use our conversational AI.
  • Performance of a Contract: To deliver the Cinematic AI Video Academy services and manage your account.
  • Legitimate Interest: To analyze website traffic during media launches and prevent fraudulent attacks on our servers.

4. Voice Data, AI Processing, and Biometric Security We employ strict, industry-leading safeguards regarding our AI Theological Advisor. When you submit an audio query:

  • Your voice data is processed securely via encrypted backend routing for the sole purpose of generating an immediate conversational response.
  • No Model Training: We do not use your personal audio queries or voice prints to train proprietary or public Artificial Intelligence models.
  • No Biometric Archiving: We do not permanently store, archive, sell, or distribute your biometric voice data to third parties.

5. Third-Party Disclosures & International Transfers We do not sell or trade your Personally Identifiable Information. We share necessary data only with trusted third-party data processors (such as Indiegogo, email marketing providers, and secure cloud hosting services) who assist us in operating our business. These third parties are bound by strict confidentiality agreements. Where data is transferred internationally (e.g., from the EU to our US-based servers), we ensure appropriate safeguards are in place, such as Standard Contractual Clauses, to maintain global privacy compliance.

6. Data Retention We will only retain your personal data for as long as reasonably necessary to fulfill the purposes for which we collected it, including satisfying any legal, regulatory, tax, accounting, or reporting requirements. Voice inputs used in our AI conversational tools are processed dynamically and are not retained in long-term storage post-interaction.

7. Your Legal Rights Under international data protection laws (including GDPR and CCPA), you hold absolute rights regarding your personal data. You have the right to:

  • Request Access: Receive a copy of the personal data we hold about you.
  • Request Correction: Correct any incomplete or inaccurate data.
  • Request Erasure (Right to be Forgotten): Ask us to delete or remove your personal data and email address from all our systems.
  • Withdraw Consent: At any time, you may unsubscribe from our communications or revoke microphone permissions on your device.

To exercise any of these rights, please contact our support team directly through the provided channels on our website.
