Personal information that this website collects and why we collect it

This website collects and uses personal information for the following reasons:

​

Comments

Should you choose to add a comment to any posts that we have published, the name and email address you enter with your comment will be saved to this website’s database, along with your computer’s IP address and the time and date that you submitted the comment. This information is only used to identify you as a contributor to the comment section of the respective blog post and is not passed on to any of the third party data processors detailed below. Only your name will be shown on the public-facing website.

​

Your comment and it’s associated personal data will remain on this site until we see fit to either 1.) remove the comment or 2.) remove the post. Should you wish to have the comment and it’s associated personal data deleted, please email us here using the email address that you commented with.

​

If you are under 16 years of age you MUST obtain parental consent before posting a comment on our blog.

​

NOTE: You should avoid entering personally identifiable information to the actual comment field of any blog post comments that you submit on this website.

​

Contact forms and email links

CCI is hosted on the Wix.com platform. Should you choose to contact us using any of our contact forms on our website pages or an email link to make a contribution to our ministry, your data may be stored through Wix.com’s data storage, databases and the general Wix.com applications. They store your data on secure servers behind a firewall. Some of your information will be processed by any of the third party data processors defined below. Your credit card information will be stored in eGive or DonorPerfect. Please click link for their Privacy Policy.

​

Email newsletter

If you choose to join our email newsletter, the email address that you submit to us will be forwarded to Constant Contact who provide us with email marketing services and to DonorPerfect, our donor database. We consider Constant Contact and DonorPerfect to be a third party data processor (see below). The email address that you submit will be stored within this website’s own database.

​

Your email address will remain within Constant Contact and DonorPerfect’s database for as long as we continue to use Constant Contact’s services for email marketing and DonorPerfect’s services for donor relations or until you specifically request removal from the list. You can do this by unsubscribing using the unsubscribe links contained in any email newsletters that we send you or by requesting removal via email. When requesting removal via email, please send your email to us using the email account that is subscribed to the mailing list.

​

If you are under 16 years of age you MUST obtain parental consent before joining our email newsletter.

While your email address remains within the Constant Contact and DonorPerfect databases, you will receive periodic (approximately one per month) newsletter-style emails from us.

 

SMS Terms & Conditions

CCI is committed to building user trust and confidence by promoting and complying with the use of business practices that help protect the privacy of the user and his/her data. For more  you can view a copy of our privacy policy.

​

CCI offers recurring text message services. By opting-in to any such service, you are confirming your entry into a recurring texting program and you give your consent to CCI to use an automatic system to deliver text messages to the phone number to which you have directed it to transmit text messages. Message frequency varies.

​

CCI does not charge for our texting service; however, message and data rates may apply from your mobile carrier. Subject to the terms and conditions of your mobile carrier, you may receive text messages sent to your mobile phone. By providing your consent to participate in our texting service, you approve any such charges from your mobile carrier. Charges for text messages may appear on your mobile phone bill or be deducted from your prepaid balance.

​

CCI reserves the right to terminate the SMS service, in whole or in part, at any time without notice. The information in any message may be subject to certain time lags and/or delays.

 

To stop receiving text messages, text "STOP" or "QUIT". By enrolling in the texting service, you consent that after having submitted a request to opt-out you will receive one (1) final message confirming that you have been removed from the system. Following the opt-out confirmation message, no additional text messages will be sent unless you rejoin the system by texting "START" in response to the opt-out confirmation.

​

Our third party data processors

We use a number of third parties to process personal data on our behalf.

• Google (Privacy policy)

• Constant Contact (Privacy policy)

• DonorPerfect (Privacy Policy)

• eGive (Privacy Policy)

• BitPay (Privacy Policy)

• Textedly (Privacy Policy)

​

Security

We take precautions to protect your information. When you submit sensitive information via the website, your information is protected both online and offline.

​

Wherever we collect sensitive information (such as credit card data), that information is encrypted and transmitted to us in a secure way. You can verify this by looking for a lock icon in the address bar and looking for “https” at the beginning of the address of the Web page.

​

While we use encryption to protect sensitive information transmitted online, we also protect your information offline. Only employees who need the information to perform a specific job (for example, billing or customer service) are granted access to personally identifiable information. The computers/servers in which we store personally identifiable information are kept in a secure environment.

​

Data Breaches

We will report any unlawful data breach of this website’s database or the database(s) of any of our third party data processors to any and all relevant persons and authorities within 72 hours of the breach if it is apparent that personal data stored in an identifiable manner has been stolen.

​

How we store your personal information

As detailed in above, if you submit a comment to a blog post published on this website or submit a form, some personal information will be stored within this website’s database. This is currently the only occasion where personal data will be stored on this website. Your data may be stored through Wix.com’s data storage, databases and the general Wix.com applications.  This data is currently stored on secure servers behind a firewall. In the near future we aim to change the storage of this data to a pseudonymous fashion meaning that the data would require additional processing using a separately stored ‘key’ before it could be used to identify an individual.

​

Pseudonymisation is a recent requirement of the GDPR which many web application developers are currently working to fully implement. We are committed to keeping it as a high priority and will implement it on this website as soon as we are able to.

​

Changes to our privacy policy

This privacy policy may change from time to time inline with legislation or industry developments. We will not explicitly inform our clients or website users of these changes. Instead, we recommend that you check this page occasionally for any policy changes.

​

If you feel that we are not abiding by this privacy policy, you should contact us immediately at 813-217-5077 or email us.
