1. Information we collect

• Order / Donation data – name, email, mailing address, payment details

• Site analytics – IP address, pages visited, device and browser details (via cookies)

• Ministry-application data – whatever you type into our application form (contact info, personal background, ministry screening questions)

2. How we use the information

• Process orders, donations, and recurring gifts

• Respond to questions or support requests

• Run ministry programs

• Improve site content and performance

3. Cookies & tracking

Essential cookies load automatically. Optional analytics cookies load only if you accept them in the cookie banner. You can block cookies in your browser, but some site features may stop working.

4. Sharing your data

We never sell your information. We share it only with trusted service-provider categories that we have subscriptions with:

• Website platform (hosting, commerce, and donor management)

• Payment gateways and shipping integrators

• Email and newsletter services

• Form-hosting service (collects applications)

• Cloud-database service (organizes applications)

• Staff email system (coordinates ministry details)

These companies may process the data only on our instructions.

5. Data security

• All traffic travels over encrypted (HTTPS/TLS) connections.

• Our service providers store data on secure servers and encrypt it at rest where available.

• Application records are limited to authorized staff and volunteers.

6. How long we keep your information

• Orders, donor profiles, and analytic logs – kept by our website or giving platforms. If you ask us to remove an account, we request deletion or anonymization from the platform from our providers.

• Application data – Application information is kept for up to seven years then deleted.

When any retention period ends—and wherever the platform allows—we either delete the data or irreversibly anonymize it so it can no longer be linked to you.

7. Your rights

You may ask us to access, correct, delete, or move your personal data at any time, or to withdraw consent where that is the legal basis for processing.

EU/UK visitors: our lawful bases include contract performance, legitimate interests, and—where faith information is involved—your explicit consent under GDPR Articles 6(1)(a) and 9(2)(d).
