Privacy

Your privacy is very important to us. We believe in treating others in the same way we would like to be treated.

Types of information we collect:
We do not collect personally identifiable information about users of our site, and thus we are unable to view your personally identifiable information unless you give it to us directly via a form, email, etc. (We are only able to see generic information such as how many people have visited our site.) Non-personally identifiable information is collected when you visit our website, including the IP address, browser type and language, and the date and time of your visit. This helps us know if we have returning visitors and if our site format works properly with your computer, and other similar things. 

This site uses cookies (see below) to enable certain features on our site and to allow us to tell how many people are viewing this site.

We use Google Analytics to help us understand how many people are coming to our site and what they find useful.

Information sharing:
We use your information only for contacting you in relation to your desired purpose, and you will never receive marketing information from us. We will not send you periodic “junk mail.”

Information you give us will not be shared with others outside our church family unless you direct otherwise via the forms provided, or create a guest book entry.

For your assurance, your information will remain protected under the privacy policy as it was worded when you contacted us.

Rest assured, this site is here for you, not to get something from you, and we respect your privacy.

What is a ‘cookie’?
Besides referring to a delicious treat that goes well with milk, ‘cookie’ also refers to text sent by a server computer to a website user’s computer, typically used for authenticating and maintaining user information.  Websites use cookies to simulate a continuous connection to that site. This makes it more convenient for users by allowing them to visit pages within a site without having to reintroduce themselves with each mouse click.

There are some popular myths about HTTP cookies.  Contrary to these fears and misconceptions, cookies were not created to spy on or otherwise invade the privacy of Internet users. Cookies do not have the capability of infiltrating a user’s hard drive and sneaking away with personal information. The simple function of a cookie is that of helping the user navigate a website with as little obstruction as possible.
