Privacy Policy

SpiritOfHisMouth.com is run by Spirit Of His Mouth — the home of the books, studies, films and music of Dov. In this policy, “we” and “us” mean Spirit Of His Mouth. You can reach us about anything in this policy at BiblicalScholar@spiritofhismouth.com.

When you join an email list. The sign-up forms on this site (the free daily Morning Nuke and the “notify me” lists for specific releases) collect:

• your first name and email address;
• the list or campaign you signed up for (for example the Morning Nuke, or a book release notice) and what you were offered;
• the page you signed up from and any campaign labels in the link you arrived through (UTM parameters such as utm_source);
• the wording shown on the form when you agreed, and the date and time you agreed;
• a one-way scrambled (hashed) form of your IP address, used only to limit repeated or automated sign-up attempts. Your actual IP address is not stored.

When you email us. We receive your email address and whatever you choose to write.

When you buy something. Purchases are not made on this site. The “buy”, “get the book” and “shop” buttons take you to our store at ShopWowGoods.com, which runs on Shopify. Your order, payment and delivery details are collected there, under that store’s own privacy policy. We never see or store your card details.

When you join the membership. Membership is run on Patreon. Your Patreon account and billing details are handled by Patreon under its own privacy policy.

Sign-ups are saved in a database hosted by Supabase. The database can only be written to by this site’s server; it is not readable from the public website. The site itself is hosted by Vercel.

A sign-up is only confirmed on screen after it has been saved. If saving fails, the form tells you so and asks you to try again — it never shows a success message for a sign-up that was not stored.

After a new sign-up is saved, a private notification email is sent to Spirit Of His Mouth at BiblicalScholar@spiritofhismouth.com through an email delivery service. It contains your first name, your email address, the list you joined and the page you signed up from, so we can follow up with what you asked for. It is never published or shown to other visitors.

• to send you what you signed up for — the Morning Nuke studies, or news about the specific release you asked to hear about;
• to reply when you write to us;
• to keep the sign-up forms working and to block spam and abuse.

We do not sell, rent or trade your personal information.

We only email people who signed up through one of our forms, and only about the list they joined and closely related Spirit Of His Mouth releases. We keep a record of the consent wording you saw when you signed up.

You can unsubscribe at any time: use the unsubscribe link where an email includes one, reply to any of our emails with “unsubscribe”, or write to BiblicalScholar@spiritofhismouth.com. We will stop emailing you and, if you ask, delete your sign-up record.

This site does not set advertising cookies and does not currently run an analytics or tracking service. It uses your browser’s own storage in two small ways:

• session storage keeps the campaign labels (UTM parameters) of the link you arrived through until you close the tab, so they can be saved with a sign-up;
• after a purchase of The 61 Fathers of Christ, the thank-you page keeps the order reference number in local storage so the same order is not counted twice. No payment details are stored.

Some content on this site is loaded from other services, which receive your IP address when it loads:

• YouTube videos — a player is only loaded from YouTube (youtube-nocookie.com) when you press play; YouTube may then set its own cookies;
• live prices and product images are read from ShopWowGoods.com (Shopify);
• fonts are loaded from Google Fonts and Fontshare, and images from our media library host.

If we add an analytics service in the future, we will update this policy before it goes live.

Checkout for books, study guides, music and BHI Clothing happens on ShopWowGoods.com, powered by Shopify. Membership is handled by Patreon. Our YouTube, Facebook, Substack and Patreon pages are run on those platforms. Each of these services has its own privacy policy, which applies when you use it.

We keep your sign-up details for as long as you stay on our email lists. When you unsubscribe or ask us to delete your details, we remove them, keeping only what we need to make sure you are not emailed again. The hashed sign-up attempt records used against spam are deleted automatically after about a day.

You can ask us at any time to show you the details we hold about you, to correct them, or to delete them. Write to BiblicalScholar@spiritofhismouth.com from the email address you signed up with and we will respond.

This site is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect their personal information. If you believe a child has signed up, contact us and we will delete the record.

We may update this policy when the site changes. The “last updated” date at the top shows the current version. See also our Terms & Conditions.
