Privacy and moderation

Share with care.

Do not include full names, addresses, phone numbers, private medical details, or anything that would identify someone who has not consented.

New submissions are saved locally in this mock version and should be treated as pending review. Real public publishing should require human moderation.

Moderation posture

Prayer is public here only after review.

A production version should route submissions to a trusted moderation workflow, remove identifying details, and keep prayer team only intentions out of the public build.
