How We Use Your Information

We collect personal data when you provide it, both offline and online. You do not need to provide personal information to use Christ Fellowship websites and services. You can create a profile, which allows us to tailor our sites and services to be a more personalized experience. To create a profile, we require your first and last name, email address, phone number, and password to authenticate you when accessing your profile. Beyond the personal information needed to create a profile, you have choices about what additional information you provide to us, which may include your zip code, the names of family members, gender, and marital status, all of which will be stored in association with your profile. Certain information may be required based on your specific request, such as your social security number for employment inquiries and volunteer requests; we will notify you of this at the time of such a request.


We also collect information about you when you send, receive, or engage in communications with us, including when you submit personal information or requests by emailing hello@christfellowship.church. We retain those communications to process your inquiries, respond to requests, and improve our sites and services.


When you interact with us, the information you provide us is generally stored internally in our third-party relationship management system, or “CRM system.” We will use this information to authenticate you and allow you to access your specific profile, when available. We also create user profiles for offline purposes, including volunteerism and inquiries concerning employment. We may combine the information you provide us for your profile and interactions with our websites and mobile apps with the information you provide us through other Christ Fellowship sites, services, and products and inferences we make from the same for our internal development to improve the overall quality of our sites, services, and products. We may also recommend other Christ Fellowship services based on the information you provide, and we infer.


Your Posts

Our Christ Fellowship Websites, Mobile apps, and services have a wide array of functionality, including streaming video, creating prayer requests, and identifying and communicating with your Christ Fellowship groups and teams. Some Christ Fellowship Websites, Mobile apps, and services may allow you to publish, distribute, and display content to specific inpiduals or the public. We will refer to how you provide content and information as “posted” and the content and information posted as “user contributions.” User contributions may be made on public areas of websites and social media accounts you access through our sites or may otherwise be transmitted to third parties. Your user contributions are processed by us to facilitate your ability to create, use, store, and distribute user contributions as you choose. We will associate your user contributions with your account if you opt not to delete them.


If you disclose personal information, whether through collaborative postings, social media, message boards, or otherwise, this information may be collected and used by others. User contributions are posted and transmitted at your own risk. We cannot control the actions of other users or third parties with whom you choose to share your user contributions. Therefore, we cannot and do not guarantee that unauthorized persons will not view your user contributions, nor do we accept any liability associated with your user contributions.


Giving

If you choose to provide a donation through one of the Christ Fellowship Websites, Mobile apps, and services, then and only then will you be prompted and required to provide a credit card, bank account, and other financial information necessary to process the transaction. We will collect the designation for your donation if you provide one and personal information such as your name, address, phone number, and/or email address to ensure that your donation is used for the purpose you request and to provide you with an annual giving statement that itemizes your donation(s). We will also contact you periodically to inquire if you would like to give to another program, location, or cause. We may contact you through push notifications, SMS, email, mail, or in-app messages to share these opportunities.


This information, excluding your financial information, is stored in our CRM system. As of the date of this Policy, we use PushPay to process your online donation payments. For information on how third parties process your information, please refer to their privacy policies found here: https://pushpay.com/legal-center/privacy/


For donations you provide to us in person or by mail, we store your financial information in our databases in an encrypted form for as long as necessary to process your donation and as required by applicable law and GAAP accounting principles.


Christ Fellowship Merchandise

For Christ Fellowship sites where you can purchase Christ Fellowship-branded clothing and other items, including our cafe locations, your personal and financial information is provided and shared with our third-party contractors, who will process your order. The third parties are identified at the time of your purchase. For details on how those companies use, store, maintain, and disclose your information, please refer to their respective privacy policies or contact them directly.


Volunteers and Employment Inquiries

You may apply to volunteer for miscellaneous activities and events in person at a Christ Fellowship location or through one or more of our sites. You may also apply for employment in person and through our sites.


The information we require for volunteer and employment applications are your first and last name, telephone number, address, social security number, date of birth, and your employment history in the case of a job inquiry. We will store and use this information to process your application and associate it with your profile if one exists. We will use your social security number and date of birth solely for a background check regarding your application to be a volunteer and/or employee. We will not share either with any third party except for third-party service providers that enable us to perform background checks. We are obligated not to share or use your information for any other purpose. If you become an employee of Christ Fellowship Church, your personal information is also used in connection with your employment.


As a volunteer, you may have access to third-party software that allows you to schedule and check in to your volunteer activity and manage other volunteer activities. This location-based information is stored in association with your profile to enable you to see your past volunteerism, and we also use it for our internal analysis.

We use cookies to recognize you and/or your device(s) on, off, and across the different applications of our sites and devices.

We do not sell your personal information to any third parties, allow our SDK service providers to sell your personal information to third parties, or use your personal information to solicit the sale of third-party goods or services. We may provide these third parties with aggregate de-identified information concerning ads placed on their sites and downloads that result from those ads.


We use this information to provide a more tailored Christ Fellowship site experience and communicate with you more effectively. The information is also collected to determine the aggregate number of unique devices using our sites, track total usage, and analyze usage data to provide you with a better experience and improve the quality of our services. We may combine this information with other information to give you a better experience and improve the quality of our service. If you do not want us to collect this information, you should cease use of our sites.


We generally maintain the data we collect from cookies for 21 days but may save it for longer when necessary, such as when required by law or for technical reasons. Although most internet browsers accept cookies by default, you can control cookies through your browser settings and similar tools or agree to refuse all cookies altogether. If you refuse to accept cookies, you may prohibit Christ Fellowship from delivering the full capability of our sites, and you may prevent the use of certain features and services that require these technologies.

They may use this information to provide you with interest-based, targeted content. We do not control these third parties’ tracking technologies or how they may be used. Contact the responsible provider directly if you have any questions about targeted content.


WiFi and GPS

Some of our sites use GPS or wireless (“WiFi”) information to identify when you are near one of our physical locations. You can provide consent for us to use this information when you first download or begin to use our sites. If you provide consent, we use the information to enable push notifications related to interactions with our Christ Fellowship sites and physical locations.


You also can manually initiate a location search to identify whether you are at one of our physical locations. When using specific Christ Fellowship sites, you can provide us with your location through your browser, zip code, or city, which a third-party search engine will process.

Once your particular session of use of the feature ends, we will cease access to your GPS and WiFi location unless you use the feature again.

  • Investigate, prevent, or take action regarding suspected or actual illegal activities or to assist government enforcement agencies;
  • Enforce our agreements with you;

Deleting, Accessing, and Correcting Your Information


How to Make Your Requests

For personal data that we have about you, you may request the following:


Deletion: You may ask us to erase or delete all or some of your personal data. Please note that doing so may limit your ability to use certain functionality of Christ Fellowship Church sites. Please note that an email address is required to have an account to ensure we can properly authenticate potential users of that account.


Correction/Modification: You may edit some of your personal data through your account or ask us to change, update, or fix your data in certain cases, including if it is inaccurate.


Object to, or Limit or Restrict, Use of Data: You can ask us to stop using all or some of your personal data or to limit our use of it.


Right to Access and/or Take Your Data: You can ask us for a copy of or disclosure concerning your personal data you provided to us.


Certain laws may provide the right to make additional requests concerning your personal information. If you have provided us with personal information and wish to make such a request under a specific region’s law, include the phrase “[Your State/Country] Privacy Request” in the subject line of your request and send your request via email to data.privacy@Christfellowship.church or via mail to Christ Fellowship Church, attn.: Data Privacy, 5343 Northlake Blvd, Palm Beach Gardens, FL 33418.


We ask that inpiduals making requests identify themselves with at least their name, mailing address, and email address and identify the information requested to be accessed, corrected, or removed before we process the request. We may seek additional information to verify a requestor’s identity. We may decline to process requests if we cannot verify the requestor's identity or if we believe the request will jeopardize the privacy of others, violate any law or legal requirement, cause the information to be incorrect, or for a similar legitimate purpose.

We will not discriminate against you for exercising your rights under applicable law. We do not charge a fee to process or respond to a verifiable request concerning your personal information unless it is excessive, unduly burdensome, repetitive, or manifestly unfounded. If we determine that the request warrants a fee, we will tell you why we made that decision and provide a cost estimate before completing your request.


Deleting Your Account

You can delete your Christ Fellowship Church account credentials at any time using the settings function in the Christ Fellowship Church application. To request deletion of all account data, you must follow the deletion request instructions above; however, when you delete your account, we will delete the information associated with your account, such as user contributions you have created, received, or shared. If you do not want to delete your account or this information but want to temporarily stop using a Christ Fellowship Church site, you may cease use, and we will maintain your account and the information associated with your account until you resume use or delete your account, whichever comes first.


We generally retain and process information and user contributions associated with your account until your account is deleted. You can manage, change, and delete certain information associated with your account using the Christ Fellowship Church application. If you’d like us to delete your account and all the information associated with your account, you may contact us via email to data.privacy@Christfellowship.church or via mail to Christ Fellowship Church, attn.: Data Privacy, 5343 Northlake Blvd, Palm Beach Gardens, FL 33418.


If you choose to delete your account or ask that we modify or delete personal information, we will delete and purge personal information we have stored about you in a way that is electronically irreversible; however, we may retain your personal data if we have a legal right or obligation to maintain the information or to meet regulatory requirements, resolve disputes, maintain security, prevent fraud and abuse, enforce our rights, or fulfill any other requests from you (for example, to opt-out of further messages or for a copy of your data). Otherwise, if you request that we delete your account, we will delete your account and all the information we have that is associated with your account, except for aggregated statistics based on de-identified information and inferences we have made (for example, the fact that you downloaded our application, without identifying you or maintaining personal information associated with that account).


Our deletion of your information and account will generally take up to 45 days from your request; however, cached information may take up to 30 days to delete. Please note that we have no control of the information you have shared with others through our sites and applications after you close your account, ask to delete information, or attempt to delete your account yourself. Your information and content you have shared may continue to be displayed in the services of others, including search engine results, until their cache refreshes.

However, we ask that you discuss the risks of sharing personal information on the Internet with your children and require that they refrain from communicating with any third parties or sharing any personal information online or otherwise without the supervision of a parent or guardian. Should you allow your minor child to use our sites or services, you are solely responsible for supervising the minor’s use of the same and assume full responsibility for the processing of any information provided to us by that minor.


Where you associate your minor child’s information with your account, we will assume you consent to our processing of that information in accordance with this policy and other privacy notices and terms we may provide to you from time to time. If you allow your minor child to use our sites, we ask that you discuss the risks of sharing personal information on the Internet with your children and require that they refrain from communicating with any third parties or sharing any personal information with other users.

We will only collect and process your personal data where we have lawful bases. Lawful bases include consent where you have given it, contracts, and other legitimate interests. Such legitimate interests include protection to you, us, other users, and third parties, to comply with applicable law, to enable and administer our internal processes, to manage corporate transactions, to generally understand and improve our internal processes and user experience, and to enable us and other users of our sites to connect with you to exchange information, provided that the preceding adequately protects your rights and freedoms. Where we rely on your consent to process personal data, you have the right to withdraw or decline your consent at any time, and where we rely on legitimate interests, you have the right to object. If you have any questions about the lawful bases upon which we collect and use your personal data, please contact us via email at data.privacy@Christfellowship.church or via mail to Christ Fellowship Church, attn.: Data Privacy, 5343 Northlake Blvd, Palm Beach Gardens, FL 33418.


Third-Party Information Collection

This Privacy Policy applies only to sites and apps owned and operated by Christ Fellowship Church. Our sites may contain links to other websites or apps. You are responsible for reviewing the privacy statements and policies of those other websites you choose to link to or from one of our sites so that you can understand how those websites collect, use, and store your information. We are not responsible for the privacy statements, policies or content of other websites or apps, including websites you link to or from a Christ Fellowship Church site. Websites containing co-branding (referencing our name and a third party’s name) contain content delivered by the third party, not us.


If you link to other websites, applications, and services or profiles you have with third-party applications, you will provide the personal data stored on those applications to Christ Fellowship Church. For example, you may link your Facebook account to your profile, providing personal information you have opted to share through Facebook to Christ Fellowship Church. When you do so, we are provided with your Facebook or other applicable social media username. You may revoke the link with such accounts and third-party applications by modifying your settings with those applications. As noted above, third-party sites that link to or are associated with our sites may collect information using automated technologies such as cookies. We have no control over such collection and use, which are subject to the privacy policies of those third parties.


Users Outside the United States

We are based in Florida within the United States, and the laws of the U.S. and the State of Florida govern your use of our sites and this Privacy Policy. If you are using one of our sites from outside this state or country, your information may be transferred to, stored, and processed in the U.S. where our servers are located, and our central database is operated. We process data both inside and outside of the U.S. and rely on contractual commitments between us and companies transferring personal data that require the protection and security of such data for your privacy. The data protection and other laws of the State of Florida, the U.S., and other countries might not be as comprehensive and may differ from those in your state or country. By using a Christ Fellowship Church site, you consent to your information being transferred to our facilities and to the facilities of those third parties with whom we share it, as described in this Privacy Policy.


Changes to this Policy

This Privacy Policy may change from time to time, and your continued use of Christ Fellowship sites after we make changes is deemed to be acceptance of those changes. So, please check this policy periodically for updates. Our policy is to post any changes we make to our Privacy Policy on this page. If we make material changes to how we treat our users’ Personal Information, we will notify you by e-mail (if you have an email address on record with us) and through a notice on the website home pages. The date the Privacy Policy was last revised is identified at the top of the page.

Please carefully review these terms, as well as the rest of the Terms of Use, before using our Websites, Mobile Apps or Services.
