The Journey Community Church (“we,” “us,” or “our”) is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and safeguard information when you visit our website or make a donation through our online giving platform.
Please read this policy carefully. If you have questions, contact us at Media@thisisthejourney.org.
When you submit a contact form on our website, we collect the information you provide, which may include your name, email address, phone number, and the content of your message.
Online donations are processed through Planning Center Giving (powered by Pushpay). When you give online, your payment information — including credit or debit card details — is entered directly into their secure platform and is not stored on our servers. We may receive a record of your donation (amount, date, and contact information you provide) for our internal records and tax receipt purposes.
Like most websites, our site may automatically collect certain technical data when you visit, such as your IP address, browser type, pages visited, and the date and time of your visit. This information is used to maintain and improve the site.
We use the information we collect to:
We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information to third parties for marketing purposes.
We use the following third-party services that may collect or process your information:
Our website may use cookies — small text files stored on your device — to improve your browsing experience and collect usage data. You can instruct your browser to refuse all cookies or to alert you when cookies are being sent. However, some parts of the site may not function properly without cookies.
We retain contact form submissions and donation records for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes described in this policy or as required by law. You may request deletion of your personal information at any time by contacting us (see Section 7).
We take reasonable administrative, technical, and physical measures to protect your information from unauthorized access, disclosure, or loss. However, no method of transmission over the internet is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
Depending on your location, you may have rights regarding your personal information, including the right to access, correct, or request deletion of data we hold about you. To exercise any of these rights, please contact us at Media@thisisthejourney.org.
Our website is not directed to children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe we have inadvertently collected information from a child, please contact us and we will promptly delete it.
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will revise the “Last updated” date at the top of this page. We encourage you to review this policy periodically.
