Disclosure of Personal Information

We regard your personal information as confidential and do not sell it to anyone. We do not share your personal information with other parties except in the following exceptions (or in other instances where we specifically inform the individual and obtain prior consent):

Third Party Providers. We may provide personal information to third parties for their use in performing internal functions on our behalf (payment processing, maintenance, security, data analysis, hosting, and so forth). In such instances, the providers will be contractually required to protect the personal information from additional use or transfer in accordance with this privacy policy and industry standards.

Church Entities. We may transfer personal information to any Church affiliated entity to meet Church purposes. For membership information transfers from the European Union, we rely on standard clause agreements between Church entities in compliance with European requirements. For online submissions of personal information, we understand an individual's submission to be an affirmative act, indicating informed consent to the processing as well as informed consent to allow the transborder data transfer to the United States of America for the purposes for which it was provided.

Legal Requirements. We may access and disclose your personal information, posts, journaling, personal notes, content, or other submissions submitted to any Church Web site if we have a good-faith belief that doing so is required by a subpoena or other judicial or administrative order or otherwise required by law. Additionally, we may disclose your personal information and other information where we, in good faith, deem it appropriate or necessary to prevent a violation of our other agreements; to take precautions against liability; to protect the rights, property, or safety of the site, of any individual, or of the general public; to maintain and protect the security and integrity of our services or infrastructure; to protect ourselves and our services from fraudulent, abusive, or unlawful uses; to investigate and defend ourselves against third-party claims or allegations; or to assist government enforcement agencies.
