Data, privacy & syncing
What is stored, how fresh is it, and who can see what?
- Individual donor names and donor-level lists are never displayed anywhere in the app. Every giving figure is an aggregate.
- Survey answers are aggregate-only. Individual submissions are not viewable in the app, and any segment with fewer than 5 responses is suppressed.
- A nightly sync pulls only records changed since the last run, using a per-entity watermark, so it is fast and safe to repeat.
- A full refresh runs weekly to catch anything a changed-since query could miss, such as deletions.
- Planning Center access tokens are encrypted at rest and are only ever used by the server, never sent to the browser.
- Your data is isolated per organization at the database level, so one church can never read another's records.
- Disconnecting Planning Center in Settings stops all syncing immediately.
