What Personal Data We Collect and Why We Collect It

We collect information about visitors and users of our Site in order to operate the Site, provide our content and services, and improve the experience for our visitors. The types of information we collect include:

– Personal Information: Information you voluntarily provide, such as your name, email address, phone number, mailing address, and any information you include in forms, comments, messages, or donations.
– Account or Subscription Information: If you subscribe to newsletters or updates, we may collect your name, email address, and your communication preferences.
– Automatically Collected Information: Information about your device and browsing activity, such as your IP address, browser type, operating system, language preference, referring site, access times, and pages viewed. This information helps us understand how visitors use our Site and improve its performance and security.
– Usage Data and Analytics: Data about how you interact with our content, such as links clicked, pages visited, and time spent on pages. This is usually collected through cookies or similar technologies.

Comments

When visitors leave comments on the Site (if comments are enabled), we collect the data shown in the comments form, and also the visitors IP address and browser user agent string to help with spam detection and security.

An anonymized string created from your email address (also called a hash) may be provided to the Gravatar service to see if you are using it. The Gravatar service privacy policy is available at: https://automattic.com/privacy/. After approval of your comment, your profile picture (if configured in Gravatar) is visible to the public in the context of your comment.

Media Uploads

If you upload images or other media files to the Site (for example, through forms that allow attachments), you should avoid uploading images with embedded location data (EXIF GPS) included. Visitors to the Site can download and extract any location data from images on the Site.

Cookies

The Site uses cookies and similar technologies to operate, secure, and improve the Site, and to understand how visitors use it. Cookies are small data files placed on your device.

We may use cookies for:
– Essential and functional purposes (for example, to remember your preferences or keep you logged in where applicable)
– Analytics (to help us understand how the Site is used)
– Security and spam prevention

If you leave a comment on our Site, you may opt in to saving your name, email address, and website in cookies. These are for your convenience so that you do not have to fill in your details again when you leave another comment.

You can control and manage cookies through your browser settings. Disabling cookies may affect how the Site functions.

Embedded Content from Other Websites

Articles, posts, or pages on this Site may include embedded content (e.g. videos, images, articles, social media feeds, calendars, or other widgets). Embedded content from other websites behaves in the exact same way as if the visitor has visited the other website directly.

These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with that embedded content, including tracking your interaction if you have an account and are logged in to that website. We encourage you to review the privacy policies of any third-party services that provide embedded content.

Analytics

We may use analytics services (including Jetpack Site Stats and other analytics tools) to help us understand how visitors use the Site, such as which pages are viewed, how long visitors stay, and what content is most popular. These services may collect your IP address and other usage data and may use cookies or similar technologies.

We use this information to analyze trends, administer the Site, improve our content, and understand our audience.

Who We Share Your Data With

We do not sell your personal information.

We may share your information with:
– Service Providers: Third-party vendors that help us operate the Site and provide our services (for example, hosting providers, analytics providers, email delivery services, and payment/donation processors). These providers are only given access to the information they need to perform these services on our behalf and are required to protect your information.
– Security and Spam Protection Services: Services such as Jetpack and Akismet that help us prevent spam, detect abuse, and maintain security. These services may receive information such as your IP address, user agent, and content you submit (such as comments or form entries) for the purpose of spam detection and security.
– Legal Requirements: We may disclose information about you if we are required to do so by law or if we believe in good faith that such disclosure is reasonably necessary to comply with legal obligations, respond to legal requests, protect our rights, property, or safety, or protect users or the public.

How Long We Retain Your Data

We retain personal information only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes described in this policy, unless a longer retention period is required or permitted by law.

Examples:
– Comments: If comments are enabled, comments and their metadata may be retained indefinitely so we can recognize and approve any follow-up comments automatically.
– Form Submissions: Contact form and RSVP form submissions may be kept for a reasonable period for customer service, ministry follow-up, and record-keeping purposes.
– Donation Records: Donation records may be kept for as long as needed to comply with tax, accounting, and legal obligations.
– Analytics Data: Analytics data is generally retained for a limited period needed for reporting and analysis and may be stored in aggregate or anonymized form.

What Rights You Have Over Your Data

Depending on your location, you may have rights under data protection laws (such as the EU/UK GDPR and similar laws) regarding your personal information. These rights may include:

– Access: You can request a copy of the personal data we hold about you.
– Correction: You can request that we correct or update inaccurate or incomplete personal data.
– Deletion: You can request that we delete your personal data, subject to certain legal exceptions (for example, where we must retain data for legal or accounting reasons).
– Restriction: You can request that we restrict the processing of your personal data in certain circumstances.
– Objection: You can object to certain types of processing, including direct marketing.
– Data Portability: You can request to receive the personal data you provided to us in a structured, commonly used, and machine-readable format, where applicable.

If you have an account on this Site (if accounts are enabled), or have left comments, you can also request to receive an exported file of the personal data we hold about you, including any data you have provided to us, and you can request that we erase any personal data we hold about you. This does not include any data we are obliged to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.

To exercise any of these rights, please contact us using the contact details provided above. We may need to verify your identity before fulfilling your request.

Where Your Data Is Sent

Visitor comments, form submissions, analytics data, and other information may be checked through automated spam detection services (such as Akismet) and may be processed by our hosting and service providers, which may be located in other countries. This means your data may be transferred to and processed in a country different from your own. Where required by law, we take steps to ensure that appropriate safeguards are in place for such transfers.

Plugin and Third-Party Disclosures

Our Site uses and interacts with the following third-party services and plugins (among others):

– B Social Share: Enables social media sharing buttons on the Site so you can share our content on platforms such as WordPress, Tumblr, Blogger, Facebook, and X (formerly Twitter). These platforms may collect data about you when you interact with share buttons or if you are logged into your social media accounts.

We do not store full payment card numbers on this Site.
– Other Plugins and Services: We may use additional plugins such as Classic Editor, Gutenberg, Layout Grid, or other tools that support site functionality. These tools may process limited technical data (such as usage data or configuration data) as needed to provide their services.

Please note that each third-party service has its own privacy policy and terms. We encourage you to review those policies to understand how your data is handled by those providers.
