Privacy Policy
This policy explains how Church Admin collects, uses, stores, and protects personal information for church administration, member care, communication, and ministry operations.
1. Information We Collect
We may collect member, leader, guest, and staff information such as names, phone numbers, fellowship and department assignments, attendance history, contribution records, communication consent, and ministry activity relevant to church administration.
2. How We Use Information
We use the information stored in Church Admin to support pastoral care, communication, follow-up, reporting, duty scheduling, event coordination, and other legitimate church administration purposes.
3. WhatsApp and Communication Data
When a church chooses to enable WhatsApp messaging, the system may process message content, delivery statuses, phone numbers, and opt-in communication preferences for ministry communication and support. Message access is restricted according to internal church leadership permissions configured in the platform.
4. Data Sharing
We do not sell personal data. Information may be shared only with authorized church leaders, staff, and service providers that are necessary to operate the platform, such as hosting, web push notifications, and Meta WhatsApp Business services.
5. Data Retention
Information is retained only as long as reasonably necessary for church administration, legal compliance, pastoral follow-up, or recordkeeping. Churches may archive, anonymize, or delete member data according to their operational and legal requirements.
6. Data Security
We take reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect data against unauthorized access, misuse, loss, or alteration. These measures include authentication, role-based permissions, and audit logging for sensitive actions where applicable.
7. User Rights
Depending on local law, individuals may request access to, correction of, restriction of, or deletion of their personal data. Requests should be submitted through the church or administrator responsible for the record.
8. Contact
Privacy requests and questions: Contact the church administrator or the ministry team responsible for your record. If this deployment provides a public support address, that address should be used in production for privacy requests.
