How we collect, use, and protect your information — written in plain language.
Last updated: April 7, 2026
Your privacy matters to us. This policy explains what information we collect when you use The Prodigal Path, how we use it, and how we keep it safe. We've written it to be as clear as possible — because you deserve to know.
Information you give us: When you create an account or join our membership, we collect your name and email address. If you make a purchase, your payment information is handled directly by Stripe — we never store your card details on our servers.
Content you share: Posts, messages, and reflections you share within our community are stored so other members (and you) can access them.
Automatically collected information: When you visit our site, we collect basic information like the pages you visit, the time of your visit, and your browser type. We use this only to improve the experience for everyone.
Cookies: We use cookies to keep you logged in and remember your preferences. See our Cookie Policy for more details.
We do not sell your personal information. Ever.
All payments are processed securely by Stripe. When you make a purchase, you're entering your payment information directly into Stripe's secure system. We receive confirmation of your payment but never see your full card number. Stripe's privacy policy is available at stripe.com/privacy.
We only share your information with third parties when absolutely necessary to run this community (for example, our payment processor). We do not share your information with advertisers or marketing companies.
You can request to see, correct, or delete your personal information at any time. You can also unsubscribe from our emails at any time using the link in any email we send.
We take reasonable steps to protect your information from unauthorized access. Our site uses HTTPS encryption, and we limit access to your data to only those who need it to serve you.
If you have any questions about this privacy policy or how we handle your information, please reach out to us at the-prodigal-path@polsia.app. We're happy to help.
