What Information We Collect and How We Use It

Any information we collect on our website or forms generally falls into the Personally Identifiable Information category.

 

Personally Identifiable Information: This refers to information that lets us know specifically who you are. In general, you can visit our website without telling us who you are or revealing any Personally Identifiable Information. We may collect your information from forms, such as registration, in order to maintain contact with registrants. We will not use your personal information for any advertising or promotional purposes, including emails for the church, unless you provide explicit consent.

 

Payments: When you offer payment for services or as donations, we collect Personally Identifiable Information (such as name, contact and billing information, credit card, and other transaction information). We use this information to deliver your order, process payment, and to communicate with you about the status of your order. In the case of an event, we will use this information to confirm that you are fully registered for the event. Credit card information submitted with your order is used only for payment processing and is not retained on our website.

From time to time, we may be required to provide Personally Identifiable Information in response to court order, subpoena, or government investigation. We also reserve the right to report to law enforcement agencies any activities that we in good faith believe to be unlawful. We may release Personally Identifiable Information when we believe that such release is reasonably necessary to enforce or apply our Limited Warranty or to protect the rights, property, and safety of others and ourselves.
