Last updated: May 8, 2026
Summary
- •We do not sell your personal information. We do not use advertising or behavioral-tracking cookies to profile you, and we do not build marketing dossiers from your use of this site.
- •If you only browse public resources and never sign in, we do not maintain an account or personal profile about you on this application for those visits.
- •Optional "Sign in with Google" is only for site operators who need authenticated access. If you choose to sign in, our systems store the minimum account and session data required for secure login (described below)-not for unrelated commercial purposes.
Who we are
This website ("RfR Resources") is operated as part of Recovering from Religion, a nonprofit organization. This policy describes how we handle information in connection with this site.
Information we process when you browse publicly
You can read and explore most of this site without creating an account. Like almost all websites, our hosting infrastructure may automatically process technical data needed to deliver pages securely and reliably (for example, IP address, browser type, timestamps, and requested URLs). That processing is for operation and security of the service, not for selling personal data or running cross-site ad profiling on this site.
Optional sign-in with Google
Some features require signing in with Google. When you do, Google's authentication service shares certain profile details with us according to Google's Privacy Policy. We use that sign-in solely to verify your identity and authorize access to administrative or editorial functions on this site.
To operate sign-in securely, we store account-related records in our systems, including identifiers linked to your Google account, your email address (and, if provided by Google, your name and profile image), and data needed to maintain your session (such as session tokens). Session records may include technical details such as IP address or browser type where our authentication software supports it, for security and abuse prevention. OAuth tokens may be stored only as required for the sign-in integration to function.
We do not use this sign-in data to send you unrelated marketing from this application, and we do not sell it.
Cookies and similar technologies
If you sign in, cookies or similar mechanisms may be used so our servers can recognize your authenticated session. Essential cookies for security and login are different from optional advertising cookies; this site is not designed to load third-party advertising trackers for behavioral profiling.
Children's privacy
This site is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe we have collected such information in error, please contact us through Recovering from Religion so we can take appropriate steps.
Your choices and rights
Depending on where you live, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, or restrict certain personal information, or to object to certain processing. If you signed in and wish to inquire about your data, contact us using the information below. You can also revoke this application's access to your Google account from your Google Account permissions settings.
Changes to this policy
We may update this policy from time to time. The "Last updated" date at the top will change when we do. Continued use of the site after changes means you accept the revised policy.
