Privacy Policy
Last Updated: August 19, 2026
This Privacy Policy applies to the website and mobile app of Abundant Grace Christian Church.
Information We May Collect
Abundant Grace Christian Church (“AGCC,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) respects your privacy. This Privacy Policy describes the types of information that may be collected through our website at www.abundantgracechristian.com and our Abundant Grace Christian Church mobile app (the “App,” together with the website, the “Services”), how that information may be used, and the choices you have.
We do not knowingly collect more information than is necessary to provide and improve our Services. The information described below may be collected only when you choose to provide it or when it is generated automatically as described.
Information You Submit Voluntarily
When you choose to interact with us through the website or App, you may voluntarily provide personal information such as:
- Contact information — your name, email address, and phone number, for example when you submit a contact message, prayer request, or sign up to stay connected.
- Prayer requests and messages — the content of prayer requests, contact messages, or other notes you choose to share with our team.
- Account information — when you create an account, your email address and a password you choose, along with any profile details you add.
- Giving information — information you enter when making a donation through a third-party payment service, as described below.
You are not required to provide this information. However, certain features (such as submitting a prayer request or creating an account) may not be available if you choose not to share the relevant details.
Information That May Be Processed Automatically
When you visit our website or use our App, certain technical information may be collected and processed automatically by us, our hosting providers, and other integrated services. This may include:
- Device and browser information, such as device type, operating system, browser version, and screen size.
- Usage information, such as the pages or screens you view, the time spent, and general interaction patterns.
- Network information, such as IP address and approximate region, which may be used to provide and secure the Services.
- Crash and performance logs that help us identify and fix technical issues.
This information is generally collected through cookies, SDKs, and similar technologies, and is processed by the providers described in the “Third-Party Services” section below. The App does not claim to collect no data; technical and usage information may be processed as described here.
How We Use Information
We may use the information described above to:
- Respond to your contact messages and prayer requests and provide spiritual support.
- Manage your account and authenticate your access to the App.
- Process and record donations you initiate through third-party payment services.
- Share updates, event information, and ministry communications when you request them.
- Improve, maintain, and secure the website and App and fix technical issues.
- Comply with our legal obligations and protect the rights and safety of our church and community.
Third-Party Services
We rely on trusted third-party providers to help operate our website and App. These providers may process information on our behalf and are governed by their own privacy policies. Examples may include:
- Hosting and platform services that store website and App data and keep the Services online.
- Analytics and performance services that help us understand usage and improve the Services.
- Payment processors used for donations, as described below.
- Email and communication services used to send updates and respond to your messages.
We do not control the privacy practices of these third parties and encourage you to review their privacy policies. We do not sell your personal information.
Donations, Giving, and Payment Processing
When you make a donation through our website or App, the payment is processed by a third-party payment provider (such as Cash App, Zelle, or Givelify). We do not directly collect or store your full payment card or bank account details. The payment provider you choose may collect and process your payment information under its own terms and privacy policy.
We may receive confirmation of your donation (such as the amount and date) so we can acknowledge your gift and maintain our records. If you have questions about how a payment provider handles your information, please contact that provider directly.
Prayer Requests and Forms
When you submit a prayer request or contact form, the information you provide is shared with our ministry team so we can pray for you and respond. You may choose to submit a request anonymously, display only your first name, or keep your request private to our team. Please do not include sensitive information (such as financial details or health records) in a prayer request unless you are comfortable with our team receiving it.
External Links
Our website and App may contain links to external websites and services operated by third parties, including social media platforms, event pages, and giving services. We are not responsible for the privacy practices or content of those external sites. We encourage you to review the privacy policies of any third-party site you visit.
Children’s Privacy
Our Services are not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us so we can take appropriate steps to delete it. Parents and guardians are welcome to participate in our ministries alongside their children, and any information shared for family ministry is provided by the parent or guardian.
Data Security
We take reasonable measures to protect the information collected through our Services, including limiting access to authorized team members and using trusted providers that maintain appropriate safeguards. However, no method of transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security. We will never sell your personal information.
Your Privacy Choices
You have choices about how your information is used. You may:
- Choose what to share — you are not required to provide personal information to browse our website, and you may submit prayer requests anonymously.
- Manage your account — you can update your profile or request that your account be deleted through the App’s account settings.
- Request changes or deletion — you may contact us to request access to, correction of, or deletion of personal information you have provided.
- Opt out of communications — you may unsubscribe from our newsletter or ask us to stop sending certain communications at any time.
We will respond to your request in accordance with applicable law. Please note that some information may be retained as needed for record-keeping, legal compliance, or to protect our ministry.
Updates to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices, the Services, or legal requirements. When we do, we will update the “Last Updated” date at the top of this page. We encourage you to review this policy periodically. Continued use of our website or App after a change indicates your acknowledgment of the updated policy.
