Privacy Policy

We may collect information that you voluntarily provide, including:

• Your name
• Email address
• Telephone number, when provided
• Contact-form messages
• Prayer requests
• Newsletter or ministry-update subscriptions
• Order and purchase information
• Customer-support communications
• Any other information you choose to submit

Please avoid including highly sensitive personal, financial, medical, or identifying information in a prayer request or general contact message unless it is necessary.

When you visit the website, certain technical information may be collected automatically, including:

• Internet Protocol address or a privacy-protected identifier derived from it
• Browser type
• Device type
• Operating system
• Pages viewed
• Date and time of visits
• Referring website or traffic source
• General geographic region
• Website interactions and performance data
• Security and error logs

This information helps us understand website use, maintain security, prevent abuse, diagnose problems, and improve the visitor experience.

The website and its service providers may use cookies or similar technologies for:

• Essential website operation
• Security and fraud prevention
• Remembering preferences
• Measuring website traffic and performance
• Understanding which pages and resources visitors find helpful
• Supporting payment and checkout functions

Your browser may allow you to block or delete cookies. Disabling essential cookies may prevent some website features from working properly.

We may use collected information to:

• Operate, maintain, and improve the website
• Respond to questions and contact requests
• Receive and privately review prayer requests
• Send ministry updates to subscribers
• Process orders and deliver purchased products
• Send receipts, order confirmations, and download instructions
• Provide customer support
• Prevent spam, fraud, misuse, and unauthorized access
• Monitor website performance
• Maintain records required for legal, accounting, security, or ministry purposes
• Comply with applicable law

We do not use prayer requests for advertising.

Prayer requests are treated with care, compassion, and respect.

Prayer requests submitted through the website:

• Remain private and are not publicly posted
• Are accessible only to authorized ministry administration
• Are used for prayer, appropriate follow-up, and ministry support
• Are not sold or used for commercial advertising

Submitting a prayer request does not create a counseling, medical, legal, pastoral-care, or other professional relationship.

Although we take reasonable steps to protect prayer requests, no internet transmission or electronic storage system can be guaranteed completely secure.

When you subscribe for ministry updates, we may send:

• Devotional encouragement
• Ministry news
• Book and resource announcements
• New-release information
• Other communications related to See As God Sees Ministry

You may unsubscribe from promotional emails by using the unsubscribe option provided in the message or by contacting us.

Transactional messages—such as purchase confirmations, receipts, security notices, and download instructions—may still be sent when necessary.

We will not automatically add a purchaser to promotional emails unless the person separately consents or applicable law permits it.

When purchases become available, payments will be processed through a trusted third-party payment processor, such as Stripe.

See As God Sees Ministry does not intend to store complete credit- or debit-card numbers on its own servers. Payment processors may collect and process information such as:

• Name
• Billing details
• Payment method information
• Transaction amount
• Date of purchase
• Fraud-prevention information

The payment processor’s own privacy policy and terms will govern its handling of payment information. Stripe describes the personal and transaction information it processes in its current privacy documentation.

For digital purchases, we may process information needed to:

• Confirm payment
• Create an order record
• Provide secure download access
• Enforce download limits or expiration periods
• Personalize or stamp a purchased file with purchaser or order information
• Prevent unauthorized sharing and fraud
• Assist with technical problems

Any identifying information placed in a purchased digital file should be limited to what is reasonably necessary to identify the licensed purchaser or order.

We may share limited information with service providers that help operate the ministry website, such as providers of:

• Website hosting and development
• Database storage
• Email delivery
• Website analytics
• Security and spam prevention
• Payment processing
• Digital-product delivery
• Technical support

These providers may process information only as needed to perform their services and are subject to their own contractual and privacy obligations.

We may also disclose information:

• When required by law, subpoena, court order, or lawful government request
• To protect the rights, safety, security, or property of the ministry, its visitors, or others
• To investigate fraud, abuse, or unauthorized activity
• In connection with a lawful reorganization, transfer, or succession of ministry operations

See As God Sees Ministry does not sell personal information for money.

We also do not sell or rent:

• Prayer requests
• Contact messages
• Subscriber email addresses
• Customer information

If our data practices materially change, this Privacy Policy will be updated before the new practice begins.

We use reasonable administrative and technical measures designed to protect information, including measures such as:

• Restricted administrative access
• Secure server-side form handling
• Spam protection
• Rate limiting
• Database access controls
• Security monitoring
• Error reporting
• Privacy-protected security identifiers
• Limited retention of certain temporary security records

The FTC recommends collecting only what is needed, protecting retained information, disposing of information appropriately, and planning for security incidents.

No website, database, payment system, or method of internet transmission can be guaranteed completely secure.

We retain personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary to:

• Provide requested ministry services
• Process and document purchases
• Respond to questions
• Maintain subscription preferences
• Fulfill legal, tax, accounting, security, or recordkeeping obligations
• Resolve disputes
• Enforce agreements

Temporary rate-limiting and abuse-prevention records may be automatically deleted after a short period.

Prayer requests and contact messages may be deleted when they are no longer reasonably needed for ministry follow-up, security, or recordkeeping.

Depending on where you live and applicable law, you may request that we:

• Confirm whether we hold personal information about you
• Provide access to certain personal information
• Correct inaccurate information
• Delete certain information
• Stop sending promotional emails
• Explain how your information is used or shared

Texas law provides qualifying residents with certain personal-data rights and requires covered entities to provide appropriate privacy protections.

This website and its commercial services are not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13 without appropriate parental consent.

If a parent or legal guardian believes a child has submitted personal information, please contact us so we can review and, when appropriate, delete it.
