Privacy Policy
Last updated October 23, 2026 · Draft
Flock is run by Kalabash Holdings LLC in the United States. This explains what we collect, why, and the choices you have. The short version: we use your information to run Flock, we don’t show ads, and we never sell your data.
What we collect
- Your account: email address, name, username, photo, bio, church, website, and birthday.
- Where and how you read: your country, languages and time zone, used to pick videos and send reminders at the right time.
- Your location, only if you ask: when you tap “Churches near me” in Find a church, your rough location (about 100 m) is used once to find churches near you. We don’t save it.
- What you post: videos, captions, comments, prayer requests, replies and messages.
- What you do: likes, saves, follows, blocks, reports, which videos you watch, and how many minutes you use Flock each day.
- Your device: if you turn on phone notifications, a notification address for your device.
- Help requests you send us.
What others can see
Your name, username, photo, bio, church, website, public videos, comments and follows are public. Your email, birthday, country, languages, saves, watch history and screen time are private. Messages are seen only by you and the person you write to, unless one of you reports a message, so a moderator can read it.
How we use it
- To run Flock: show videos, deliver messages and notifications, and remember your settings.
- To choose what’s in For You, based on your languages, country, topics and what you watch.
- To keep Flock safe: reviewing videos, handling reports, and enforcing age rules for teens.
- To answer you when you ask for help.
We don’t sell your information, we don’t show ads, and we don’t share your data with advertisers.
Teens
You must be 13 or older to use Flock. Teens get extra protection: no messages under 16, friends-only messages at 16 and 17, no 18+ videos, and quiet hours if a parent links with Family pairing. A linked parent sees a teen’s daily screen time but not their messages or what they watch. If we learn that someone under 13 has an account, we delete it.
Companies that help us run Flock
We use trusted service providers who process data only to provide their service to us:
- Supabase: our database and sign-in
- Vercel: hosting the app, and counting visits (pages opened, country, and the site you came from) without cookies or anything that identifies you
- Bunny (BunnyWay d.o.o.): storing and streaming videos
- Mux: storing, streaming and captioning videos uploaded before we moved to Bunny
- OpenStreetMap (OpenStreetMap Foundation): finding the place you type, and churches near it, in Find a church. Our server asks for you, so your device and account aren’t shared
- Stripe: handling gifts if you choose to support Flock or send a creator Seeds, and paying creators who receive Seeds (we never see your card, bank or tax details)
- Your phone’s notification service (Apple, Google or your browser) to deliver notifications
We may also share information if the law requires it, or to protect someone from harm.
Your choices
- Edit your profile, or choose who can message you, any time in Settings.
- Turn notifications and reminders on or off.
- Delete your account in Settings. That deletes your profile, videos, comments, likes, follows and messages.
- Ask us for a copy of your data, or anything else about your privacy, through Help.
Keeping it safe
Your data is stored with our providers and protected by access rules in our database. No system is perfect, but we work to protect your information.
Changes
If we change this policy in a meaningful way, we’ll tell you in the app before it takes effect.
