Privacy Policy
Effective date: May 17, 2026 Last updated: September 8, 2026
Plain English: we collect very little, we don't sell anything, and the product is anonymous by design. The details below describe what happens when you use Jesus Christ, Esquire ("JCE", "we", "us").
This Privacy Policy applies to use of the website at jesuschristesq.com.
1. What we collect
JCE does not require you to create an account, provide an email address, or share your name. We collect a limited set of information:
- An anonymous device identifier. Generated in your browser on first visit and stored on your device and in our rate-limit cache. It identifies a device, not a person, and it exists so we can enforce the daily confession cap and unlock counts.
- Conversation content. Your confession text is sent to our AI providers so a response can be generated, and is stored in your browser so the conversation persists when you return. We do not keep conversation content on our servers beyond what is needed to generate the response, with two exceptions:
- Shared defenses. If you tap "Share the Defense," that exchange is stored under a random short URL so the link works for viewers.
- Safety review. If our moderation step flags a response, the input and output may be kept briefly in a server log.
- Tithe transactions. If you tip, the payment is handled by a third-party payment processor under its own privacy policy. We receive only a notification that a payment happened, which we use to credit your device's message quota. We do not receive your name, email, billing address, or card details.
- Anonymous analytics events. We count how the product is used: page views, message counts, share clicks, tithe taps, persona swaps. These are tied to the anonymous device identifier, not to your identity. The chat input field is excluded from analytics capture, and keystrokes are never recorded.
2. What we do not collect
- Your name
- Your email address, unless you choose to write to our contact address
- Your phone number
- Your physical address
- Your IP address in identifiable form
- Browsing history outside our service
- Information from third-party social accounts
- Biometric data
- Children's data (see §7)
We do not sell, rent, or trade your information.
3. Service providers
JCE runs on third-party infrastructure. Your confession text and ordinary web request data pass through providers in the following categories:
- AI providers. Receive your confession text and the system prompt in order to generate a response. Requests are routed through a provider gateway, which may direct a given request to one of several underlying models.
- Content moderation. Receives the AI-generated response text for a safety check before it is displayed.
- Payment processing. Receives tithe transaction details.
- Product analytics. Receives anonymous usage events.
- Hosting and content delivery. Receive standard web request data such as request logs.
- Rate-limit and quota storage. Receives anonymous device identifiers and counters.
What this means for your confession text. Your text leaves our servers and is processed by AI providers we do not control. We have selected a data policy tier intended to route only to providers that have agreed not to use inputs for model training, and that limits operational logging. We have not independently audited these providers, and we cannot guarantee or verify how they handle your conversation content.
The practical implication: treat your confessions like any other text you would send to a third-party AI service.
- Don't include real names, addresses, or account numbers.
- Don't include medical, financial, or legal details you would not want logged.
- Don't include anything you would be uncomfortable having a chain of technology companies retain.
The product is built for parody confessions of small, comedic sins. That is the right use case.
4. Cookies and local storage
We use first-party local storage and a small first-party cookie to remember:
- Your anonymous device identifier
- Your selected persona
- That you have dismissed the disclaimer banner
- A capped history of your recent conversation
We do not use third-party advertising cookies, retargeting pixels, or cross-site trackers. If you clear your browser data, everything above is deleted from your device immediately.
5. Data retention
- Device identifier and quota counters (server side): reset daily.
- Conversation history (in your browser): until you clear your browser data, capped at a limited number of recent exchanges.
- Shared defenses: a limited period, after which the link expires and the content is deleted.
- Moderation-flagged inputs and outputs: a short review window, then deleted.
- Tithe transaction confirmations: as required by applicable accounting law.
- Analytics events: per our analytics provider's standard retention policy.
6. Your rights
Because JCE does not collect personally identifiable information, most rights under PIPEDA, GDPR, and CCPA do not apply in the usual way. There is no account to access or close, and no profile to delete. That said:
- You can clear your browser data at any time, which deletes everything we hold about you on your device.
- You can request deletion of a shared defense. Email us the short URL and we will delete it.
- You can ask what we have. Email us, and we will tell you what is tied to your device identifier, which we cannot look up without the identifier you provide.
- You can decline cookies and local storage in your browser settings, though the product will not function without them.

7. Children
JCE is intended for users 18 years of age or older. We do not knowingly collect information from children under 13, or under the age of digital consent in your jurisdiction. If you believe a child has used the service, contact us and we will delete any associated server-side data.
8. International users
JCE is operated from Canada. If you use the service from elsewhere, your information will be processed in Canada and in other jurisdictions where our service providers operate, including the United States. By using the service, you consent to this transfer.
9. Changes to this policy
We may update this policy. When we do, we will change the "Last updated" date above. Material changes will be flagged with a notice in the chat interface for at least 14 days.
