This page explains, in plain language, what happens to the information you send through this website. It is written to be accurate rather than exhaustive. It is not legal advice, and it should be reviewed before the site goes live.
Only what you type into one of the two forms on the Prayer & Contact page. That is your name, your email address if you choose to give one, the subject of your message, and whatever you write in the message or prayer request field. Nothing else is collected.
Giving an email address is optional on the prayer request form. Without one, there is no way to reply to you, which is the point of the option.
Form submissions are delivered by email so that your message can be read and answered. They are used for that purpose and no other.
Your information is never sold, rented, shared with third parties for their own use, or used to build an advertising profile of you. There is no mailing list on this site, so submitting a form does not sign you up for anything.
[EDITABLE. Once you have decided how prayer requests are handled, describe it here plainly. If requests are read only by you, say so. If they are shared with anyone else, say who. Do not promise confidentiality until you are certain it is true.]
The prayer request form includes a box you can tick to say you would prefer to remain anonymous. If you tick it, that preference is passed along with your request.
This site sets no advertising cookies and no tracking cookies, and it runs no analytics package. Nobody is following you around the internet on our account.
Two things on the page are loaded from other companies, and both see your IP address as a normal part of serving a request:
If you would rather the site loaded no third party resources at all, the fonts can be bundled locally instead. Just ask.
Messages live in an email inbox, in the same way any other email would. They are kept as long as they are useful for answering you and are deleted when they are not.
This site is written for families, but the forms are meant for adults. We do not knowingly collect information from children. If you believe a child has sent something through a form here, get in touch and it will be deleted.
You can ask what has been kept about you, ask for it to be corrected, or ask for it to be deleted. Send that request through the contact form and it will be honoured.
If this policy changes, the date at the top of the page changes with it.
Use the contact form and ask.
