How we collect information

Christian-Citizens.org may collect information regarding visitors to Christian-Citizens.org, including IP address, browser and domain information, and information volunteered by you, such as e-mail address, contact information (which may include phone numbers) and, for donations and purchases, credit card information. We may also monitor and track information, such as visitor usage patterns using standard website tracking software.  When you are on Christian-Citizens.org and are asked for personal information, you are sharing that information with Christian-Citizens.org alone, unless stated otherwise.

​

Christian-Citizens.org may share your personal information with its partner companies or service providers in order to complete your donation or purchase, fulfill your order and answer your questions.  

 

Information we collect

Christian-Citizens.org collects personally identifiable information (which may include name, email address, physical address, and phone number) from visitors and other supporters when they register to join our organization, become a member, make a donation or purchase online or offline, subscribe to our e-newsletter, take an action concerning an issue using our service, or otherwise participate in one of our online communities.

​

In addition, Christian-Citizens.org uses third party services, such as Google Analytics, to place first party and/or third party cookies (see Use of Cookies below) on devices that access Christian-Citizens.org.  These cookies enable Christian-Citizens.org to track how our Site is used, which portions of the Site is visited and which items our visitors find most interesting.  To opt out of use of our cookies for tracking, you may visit Google’s advertising policy page.

We also use certain third party service providers to place advertisements to market Christian-Citizens.org on sites across the web.  We place a cookie on your browser, and then a service such as Google reads these cookies and may serve an ad for Christian-Citizens.org on a 3rd party site.  You may opt out of this ad serving by visiting Google’s advertising policy page. 

 

Use of information

Christian-Citizens.org uses the personally identifiable information we collect about you to be able to send you communications such as an e-newsletter, various printed publications or mail appeals, and text messages (if you have opted-in at the time of providing your mobile phone number; standard text messaging rates may apply) in furtherance of our educational and advocacy objectives.

​

We use the information we collect with respect to accessing and using the Site to help administer and improve the Site and for other internal purposes.

 

Sharing of information

Except as set forth in this Policy, Christian-Citizens.org will not disclose any of your personally identifiable information to third parties, except when we have your permission or under special circumstances, such as when we believe in good faith that the law requires it. We may exchange your personal information with our affiliates and with third party service providers who may perform other marketing activities.

​

Please note: We are aware of and sensitive to the issue of unsolicited e-mail ("spam"); therefore Christian-Citizens.org will never rent, trade or sell your e-mail address to a third party for directed marketing of commercial products. We may, from time to time, allow our service providers to draw conclusions regarding user behaviors from demographic and aggregated information.  We may agree with other reputable, charitable organizations to write via postal mail or e-mail to some of each other's supporters, for the mutual benefit of both. If you would prefer not to have your information used in this manner, simply send us a request via e-mail to contact@christian-citizens.org, with your exact name and address and a request to not share your information in this manner.

 

Update, correct, or delete personally identifiable information

The accuracy of your individual information is important to Christian-Citizens.org. Additionally, we have tried to streamline our operations by making it easy for you to control the information that we maintain about you. As an eCommunity member, you can change your personal information, unsubscribe, or make an inquiry about your information by sending an e-mail to contact@christian-citizens.org.

 

Protecting personally identifiable information

When you give Christian-Citizens.org personally identifiable information, we take steps to treat your information securely. Christian-Citizens.org uses industry-standard encryption technologies when transferring and receiving sensitive visitor data (e.g., financial information) within the Site.  All online donations are processed via third parties using secure servers. Christian-Citizens.org is PCI compliant and works only with vendors who are also PCI compliant for handling personally identifiable information and/or financial transactions. More information can be found on the PCI Security and Standards Council website.

 

Christian-Citizens.org does not store your credit card information for future use. Unfortunately, no data transmission over the Internet can be guaranteed to be 100% secure. As a result, while we strive to protect your personally identifiable information, Christian-Citizens.org cannot ensure or warrant the security of any information you transmit to us, and you do so at your own risk. Once we receive your transmission, we use commercially reasonable efforts to secure it on our systems, and to protect against the loss, misuse, or alteration of information that we have collected.

 

Christian-Citizens.org is not responsible for use of personally identifiable information by its partner companies. Please consult the Sites of those companies for information concerning their privacy policies.

 

Use of cookies

Cookies are small text-only files that are stored on your computer and that can be used to help identify you when you visit Christian-Citizens.org.  A cookie cannot read data off of your computer hard disk, nor can it read cookie files created by other websites. We may use cookies to make visiting and using Christian-Citizens.org easier, for instance, so that you do not have to continually re-enter information, and so that we can tailor Christian-Citizens.org to your expressed preferences.

​

Most web browsers accept cookies. However, if you wish, you can usually set your browser to refuse cookies, or to notify you when you receive a new cookie. Note that if cookies are disabled, you may not be able to enjoy all the interactive features of Christian-Citizens.org. For more information about cookies, including instructions on how to stop cookies being installed on your browser, please see www.allaboutcookies.org.

 

Links to third-party sites

Christian-Citizens.org provides links to several third party websites. While we make efforts to choose our links carefully, we cannot take responsibility for the content of linked websites, or for the privacy policies of websites we link to. Since we do not control those websites, we encourage you to review the privacy policies on those websites prior to any use.

 

Children's privacy

If you are the parent or guardian of a child under 13 and believe your child is using Christian-Citizens.org, please contact us at contact@christian-citizens.org. Upon request, the parent or guardian of a child under 13 may review and request the deletion of such child’s personally identifiable information, as well as refuse to permit the further collection or use of such information.  If we discover that a user is under the age of 13, we will delete their account and all personally identifiable information immediately.

 

Privacy rights for California residents

If you are a California resident, California Civil Code Section 1798.83 permits you to request information regarding the disclosure of your personal information to third parties for their direct marketing purposes. To make such a request, please send an email to contact@christian-citizens.org.
