  • Correspondence: suggestions, messages, questions, requests, and comments in either email or in the comments section of this website.

How We Use the Data

We use the information we collect in the following ways:

Improve and Develop Content

We use the data we collect to write, improve, and develop our reviews based on questions you ask, what you search for, and based on user’s preferences of our designs. For example, if we see a lot of people searching for a certain Bible, we know to review that Bible. If we get questions about a specific feature, we know to include information about that feature in our future reviews. Sometimes we run a/b tests to see which colors, button styles, layout designs, etc., that readers prefer. We use that data to better design our website.

Communicating with You

We sometimes send out notifications about our reviews and news about upcoming events. These are sent to anyone that has signed up to our newsletter (also known as an email opt-in). You can unsubscribe from these emails by clicking on the unsubscribe link in the emails themselves. Your email is not stored on our servers. Instead, it’s stored on servers at our email service (which currently is MailChimp).
