Privacy Policy
Cornerstone Browser for iPhone, and Cornerstone for Chrome and Edge · Cornerstone Global LLC · Effective October 19, 2026
Cornerstone has no accounts. What you do in the browser is kept on your iPhone. This page lists everything the app keeps, and everything it sends and to whom.
Kept on your iPhone
- History of the pages you visit, for 90 days, unless you clear it sooner.
- Bookmarks, open tabs, downloads and settings, until you delete them.
- Your first name, if you add one for the greeting.
- Your home church and church tradition, if you choose them.
- Family mode's parent PIN, stored only as a one-way hash.
Deleting the app deletes all of it. Settings → Privacy & data clears history, cookies and site data.
What the app sends, and to whom
| When | What is sent | To |
|---|---|---|
| You search or open a page | Your search or the page address, as with any browser | The search engine you chose, or the website |
| The app starts or refreshes | A request for Cornerstone's settings and news. No name, account or device id | Cornerstone Global LLC (cornerstonebrowser.com) |
| You search for your church | The church name you type | What's Up Church |
| You have a home church | Your church's id, to get its public events. No name, account or device id | What's Up Church |
| You turn on "Let my church know" (off by default) | Your church's id and a random number made for that church only, so your church sees a count of members. Never your name or browsing | What's Up Church |
| You tap "Blocked by mistake?" | The site name only. Today the report is saved on your iPhone; it is sent once reporting is connected | Cornerstone Global LLC |
| You tap Donate | Nothing from Cornerstone; the organization's own website opens | That organization |
Websites you visit, search engines and the organizations you give to have their own privacy policies.
What Cornerstone does not do
- No accounts, and no profile of you on Cornerstone's servers.
- No advertising trackers or third-party analytics in the app.
- Your church tradition is never sent anywhere.
Protection
Blocking happens on your iPhone. Blocked pages are shown only to you and are not sent to Cornerstone. If you report a mistake, only the site name is included.
Cornerstone for Chrome and Edge (browser extension)
The extension gives Chrome and Edge a Cornerstone new tab and the same protection. It has no accounts and no analytics, and it doesn't read the pages you visit: the browser applies its blocking rules.
- Kept on your computer, in the browser's storage for the extension: your language, first name if you add one, home church, church tradition, card order and settings, and any "Blocked by mistake?" site names. Removing the extension, or Settings → Privacy & data → Clear Cornerstone data, deletes them.
- Sent to What's Up Church: the church name you type when you search for your church, and your home church's id to get its public events. No name, account, cookies or device id.
- Searches and pages go to the search engine you chose or the website, as in any browser. Explicit searches are stopped before they are sent.
- "Let my church know" works as described above, and is off unless you turn it on.
- Your church tradition is never sent anywhere.
An extension can be turned off or removed, and protects only the browser it's installed in. For children, the full Cornerstone browser or your device's parental controls protect more.
Children and families
Cornerstone is designed to be safe for families, and Family mode lets a parent lock settings with a PIN. Cornerstone does not knowingly collect personal information from children.
Changes
If this policy changes, the new version will be posted here with its date, and significant changes will be shown in the app.
