Your participation. Your choices.

Choose how much you share.

Public pages need no membership. Signed-in visitors may submit private requests. Active membership requires being eighteen or older and completion of naming review. A devotional name can be your community display name; do not submit a legal name, address, medical history, or identifying documents.

What this site stores

Member account identifier; chosen name and meaning; research notes, citations, dedication reflection, status, and review notes; chat messages; nominations and ballots; private requests and founder responses; signed-in course attempts including selected answers, module, score, and date; notification preferences and the last time you marked notices read. The site uses your ChatGPT sign-in to identify your account. The founder’s verified email is used for initial founder access. The site does not ask for your password.

Who sees it

Public visitors see public studies, services, portraits, videos, calendar, and published election results. Active members see devotional names and member chat messages. Antoine sees naming applications, saved course scores, selected answers, and private requests; a request is shown only to its author and Antoine through the site interface. Published video transcripts are public. Ballot choices are not displayed to members in the voting interface, but stored records are not an independently audited secret-ballot system.

Retention and deletion

Chat displays the latest one hundred messages; older messages may remain stored until removed. Other records remain until deleted or the site’s storage is retired. No automatic expiration is currently configured. On-site notices summarize existing records; they are not sent by email. You can remove your own chat messages and use the account-removal control below to delete your membership, messages, nomination and ballot records, review note, private requests, and saved course attempts from the active site database. Deleting a candidate also removes ballots cast for that candidate and can affect an election result.

Removal does not delete your ChatGPT account or copies already made by another person. Hosting logs, backups, and third-party records are outside this site’s self-service deletion control; immediate erasure from those systems is not promised. Download your site records below before removal, or ask through private support for a correction. The site retains a SHA-256 hash of a removed account identifier and its deletion date as a recovery safeguard, so later backup merges can skip that account. This marker is not an anonymous record and is not removed by self-service deletion. An intentional new membership application may create new records; an old backup still does not replace them.

Participation and accessibility

No camera or microphone is required: gatherings use text chat. Silent participation and passing are welcome. Videos include a written caption or transcript. Worship can be read without music, images, scent, flames, or breath exercises. Request an accessible alternative through private support.

Recording and confidentiality

The Circle does not provide a recording tool for member gatherings. Do not record, screenshot, repost, or copy another member’s contribution without their explicit consent. Optional course notes may be saved in your browser only when you choose Save notes on this device; use Clear device notes on each module to remove them. They are not included in the server export or account-removal action. Private chat is not end-to-end encrypted and confidentiality cannot be guaranteed. Public founder videos are intentionally published; member discussion is not automatically public content.

Founder backups

Antoine can download private database backups and separately save public video files. Backups contain private applications, support messages, scores, chat, and ballot records. They should be protected, replaced when outdated, and not shared with members. Self-service removal affects the active database; it cannot erase copies already downloaded. Recovery preserves current rows and skips accounts whose deletion markers remain available.

Outside platforms

YouTube and Spotify players load only after a visitor chooses to load them, then connect to those services. Amazon and Cash App buttons open external websites with their own policies. Donations are optional and do not affect membership. Do not send payment information through support.

Private support is not instant

Requests are stored for Antoine to review on this website. Replies can appear in your signed-in website notices if enabled. Email and push delivery are not connected; there is no guaranteed reply time or continuous monitoring. Avoid using this inbox for urgent help. No AI service reads or answers these requests in the site’s current implementation.
