Effective July 20, 2026
Privacy Notice
This notice explains how Navigate The Way ✝️ ("NTW") handles information when you browse the site, use its tools, contact us, or create an account.
Information handled by NTW
- Public browsing and security data: Cloudflare may process IP addresses, request metadata, device or browser details, and security signals to deliver and protect the site.
- Account data: Clerk processes the email address or Google-account information you choose to use for authentication. NTW receives a stable Clerk user identifier and stores a minimal application record in Cloudflare D1 containing that identifier, an internal account identifier, plan status, chat-history preference, and lifecycle timestamps. NTW does not store your password.
- AI requests and optional chat history: Prompts and the conversation context needed to answer them are sent to Apologist AI when you use NTW✝️ Chat. Chat history is off by default. If you turn it on from your Account page, NTW stores conversation titles, user messages, assistant responses, archive state, version information, and timestamps in Cloudflare D1. Only completed chats created after you opt in are saved; turning history on does not save an earlier browser conversation retroactively, and turning it off does not delete conversations already saved. Temporary Chats are not stored by NTW, but their prompts and needed conversation context are still sent to Apologist AI to generate responses and are processed under Apologist AI's own terms and privacy notice.
- Berean Board: Firebase may process session and game-state data needed to operate shared Berean Board sessions.
- Contact messages: FormSubmit processes the email address and message you submit through the contact form so we can receive and answer it.
- Analytics: Google Analytics may process usage and device information on pages where analytics is enabled. Analytics helps us understand aggregate site use and improve NTW.
How information is used
Information is used to provide and secure NTW, authenticate users, maintain application ownership, answer contact messages, operate requested AI and Berean Board features, save and manage chats only when requested, diagnose failures, prevent abuse, and understand aggregate usage. NTW does not sell personal information.
Service providers and transfers
NTW relies on Clerk for managed authentication, Cloudflare for hosting, security, Workers, and D1 storage, Apologist AI for AI responses, Google services for analytics and Firebase functionality, and FormSubmit for contact-form delivery. Those providers process information under their own terms and privacy notices and may process it in locations outside your state or country.
Cookies and browser storage
Clerk uses cookies or similar browser storage to maintain signed-in sessions. Analytics and other requested features may also use browser storage. NTW uses local browser storage for limited interface state where needed, but NTW does not use local browser storage as the database for private chat history. Blocking these technologies may prevent account or interactive features from working.
Retention and account deletion
Saved conversations remain associated with your account until you delete them or delete the account, subject to limited backups, security needs, dispute resolution, and legal obligations. Archiving does not delete a conversation, and turning off future saving does not delete conversations already saved. You can delete individual conversations or delete all chat history from Account. Deletion removes the selected saved conversation records and messages from the active application database.
Deleting your Clerk account requires confirmation. After Clerk sends a verified lifecycle notification, NTW deletes the account's saved conversations and messages and marks the associated application-user record deleted. A minimal deleted-account record, security event, or other compliance information may be retained when reasonably necessary or legally required.
Your choices
You may browse public NTW pages and use public chat without an account. Chat history is off by default. From Account, you can opt in or out of saving future completed chats, view and rename saved chats, archive or restore them, export your chat history, delete individual conversations, or delete all chat history. You may also sign out or manage and delete your account. You may contact us to ask about personal information associated with NTW, request a correction, or raise a privacy concern. We may need to verify your identity before acting on a request.
Children
NTW is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. A parent or guardian who believes a child has provided personal information should contact us.
Changes and contact
We may update this notice as NTW evolves. The effective date above will change when material revisions are published. Use the contact form below for privacy questions or requests.
