Privacy Policy - Full Text
If you request electronic information via one of our web sites, or if you send
us a comment or question via e-mail, we may keep your e-mail address in a
database. This allows us to send you a reply or to provide further information
pursuant to your request. For further information about e-mails we send see
section below on “spam”.
If you request printed material via one of our web sites or by e-mail, we will
require your name and mailing address to send this to you. You may also be asked
to provide an optional e-mail address.
If you donate to one of our ministries, purchase materials from one of our
resource centers or register as a conference attendee through one of our web
sites, we will require your name, address, phone number, billing address (if
different), credit card name, credit card number and credit card expiration
date. You may also be asked to provide an optional e-mail address.
What we do with your personally identifiable information
We will only store this information within our own secure internal databases. We
may combine this information with any other relevant data held in our databases
to build a picture of your interests, likes and dislikes, to enable us to
potentially provide you with personalized service.
We NEVER sell, rent, give or otherwise provide this information to any outside
entity, except to comply with legal requirements or with legal process. We may
also disclose this information to the appropriate authorities if we believe in
good faith that your activities represent violations of the law or may be
causing injury to or interference with -- intentionally or unintentionally --
our rights or property, other users or their rights or property, or anyone else.
How we protect your personally identifiable information
We make every reasonable effort to protect your personally identifiable
information. However, this does NOT apply to personal data – including sender
and/or recipient e-mail addresses -- contained in ordinary e-mail notes while
these are enroute between your computer and bluehost.com servers, during which
time these notes must be considered public data. For security reasons we will
never send you e-mail notes containing any sensitive or private information such
as credit card details, and strongly urge you to never place such information in
e-mails.
We internally make all staff, contractors and volunteers aware of this privacy
policy, and that violation of this policy is subject to disciplinary action --
up to and including termination.
How you consent to our organization collecting and using this information
You give us permission to collect and utilize as here described any of this
personally identifiable information by making use of any of our online
resources, including but not limited to:
• browsing any of our web sites;
• requesting information or materials via a web site;
• sending us an e-mail;
• completing a donation through any of our web sites’
• registering for a conference through any of our web sites
• purchasing materials through any of our web sites.
What our spam policy is
Spam is, by generally accepted definition, unsolicited bulk e-mail sent --
usually for marketing purposes -- to people who either have no reasonable
expectation of receiving it or have specifically requested it not be sent. We
consider spam to be an invasion of privacy and will never send unsolicited
e-mails of this type.
Our electronic mailing policy is “opt-in”, so we will not send you any e-mails
without your express permission or your reasonable expectation. Therefore, all
of our electronic publications are sent only to those who have either expressly
subscribed to them or have “opted-in” to receive further electronic mailings
from us.
If, for some reason, we have your e-mail address without knowing whether your
preference is to “opt-in” or “opt-out” of further mailings, we may send you an
initial unsolicited e-mail asking whether you would prefer to “opt-in” to
further mailings. We will always make it easy for you to “opt-out” of receiving
further electronic mail from us.

If you believe that we may hold any personal information about you, you may

• e-mail at support@solfellowship.com

any details.

• telephone at [1] 310-412-7600

operational necessity may not be deleted.

various means to contact you, you may request that we restrict or entirely

What we do to protect the privacy of children (under 13)
Although our web sites are primarily targeted at adult users, we may also choose
to provide online resources for younger persons. Safeguarding the security and
privacy of children is of paramount importance. Therefore, we will obtain
verifiable parental consent prior to the collection of any personally
identifiable information about children, and will not knowingly give children
the ability to post publicly or otherwise distribute personally identifiable
contact information without prior verifiable parental consent.
What you should know about the limitations of our Privacy Policy
You need to be aware that any personal data voluntarily disclosed by you on
bulletin boards, in chat rooms, in e-mail notes or in any other public forum
provided by our organization, could potentially be accessed and “harvested” by
third parties and is therefore not subject to our privacy policy. In addition,
external web sites linked to by any of our web sites may not adhere to our
Privacy Policy, and you should refer to their Privacy Policy to understand the
rules under which they operate. |
