Privacy
How PewRota handles your data: the list of names, the rota and every printout are made and kept in your browser, and nothing is uploaded to us.
Last updated: 28 September 2026
What stays on your device
The rota is built in the page, by a solver running in your browser. There is no server side to this site: it is a set of static files. Names never leave this computer: the list, the rota and every printout are made and kept in this browser, and nothing is uploaded.
The services, ministries, people, rules, drafts, swap log and quarters are written to your browser's own local storage, under keys beginning with pewrota. and nowhere else. They belong to one browser on one computer: they do not follow you to another device, they are not backed up anywhere, and nobody else can read them. Save a backup file to keep a copy. Clearing site data for this site removes everything permanently and immediately.
Children
Altar servers and other young volunteers are often children. PewRota asks for no birthdate, age, address, phone number, email address or school, and a pasted column of birthdates is ignored. A first name and initial, or initials alone, are enough. The site is used by adult schedulers and is not directed at children.
No accounts
There is no sign up, no sign in, no email capture and no password. Every part of the site works without identifying yourself in any way.
What is collected
No account, no advertising identifiers, and no analytics of what you type. Standard web server logs kept by the static host may record the request for a page, its time, and a network address, in the ordinary way that any web server records a request.
Purchases and access checks
No paid plan is offered at present; if one is added, this page will describe it.
Reminders
The reminder text is written for you to copy into your own email or messages. PewRota sends nothing itself, so it never holds anyone's email address or phone number.
Cookies
PewRota sets no cookies of its own, and carries no advertising or cross site tracking scripts.
Changes
If this policy changes in a way that affects what is collected, the change will appear on this page.

Questions about privacy go to socialreminderinfo@gmail.com. Since nothing is stored on a server, most requests are answered by telling you which local storage keys to clear. The rota builder and the guide work the same whether or not you ever write in.
