Teach Them To Love Outreach MinistriesDraft pending legal review. This policy is a working draft and has not yet been reviewed by an attorney. It may change before it is finalized.
Last updated: [DATE OF APPROVAL]
This Privacy Policy explains what information Teach Them To Love Outreach Ministries ("T3L," "we," "us," or "our"), 601 Quail Valley Drive, Georgetown, TX 78626, collects through the website at www.t3loutreach.org and our online portals (together, the "Site"), and how we use it. By using the Site, you agree to this Policy.
1. Information you give us
The public website has no sign-up or contact forms. You give us information when you:
- Use the member portal. The portal's forms may ask for your name, email address, phone number, ministry role, and the text of a prayer request.
- Call, text, or email us. We receive whatever you choose to share.
- Donate or buy event tickets. These go through third-party services (PayPal, Cash App, Zeffy). They share with us details such as your name, email, and gift amount. We never receive your card or bank numbers.
Prayer requests and other personal details can be sensitive. Share only what you are comfortable sharing. If you are in danger, do not rely on the Site: call 911.
2. Information collected automatically
The public website does not use advertising trackers or analytics cookies. Like any website, our hosting provider (Vercel) automatically records basic technical data when you visit, such as your IP address, browser type, and the pages requested, for security and reliability. The Site loads fonts from Google Fonts, which means your browser connects to Google's servers. The portals may save a small on/off setting in your browser's local storage. [CONFIRM: update this section if analytics, cookies, or a tracking pixel are added.]
3. How we use information
We use information to respond to you, provide pastoral care and support, manage portal access, process and acknowledge donations, send receipts, run events, keep the Site secure, and meet legal obligations. Prayer requests are intended only for authorized T3L ministry care team members.
4. How we share information
We do not sell or rent your personal information. We share it only:
- with service providers that run the Site and our operations, such as our hosting provider, our customer relationship and portal platform (GoHighLevel), and payment processors, who may use it only to provide those services;
- when required by law, or when needed to protect someone's safety; [ATTORNEY TO CONFIRM MANDATORY-REPORTING AND DUTY-TO-WARN LANGUAGE APPROPRIATE FOR T3L'S SERVICES]
- with your permission.
5. Children
The Site is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from them online. If you believe a child has given us information, contact us and we will delete it. [ATTORNEY TO CONFIRM.]
6. Security and retention
We use reasonable safeguards, including encrypted (HTTPS) connections, but no method of transmission or storage is completely secure. We keep personal information only as long as we need it for the purposes above or as the law requires. [RETENTION PERIOD: e.g., "Prayer requests are deleted after 12 months."]
7. Your choices
You can ask us to see, correct, or delete the personal information we hold about you, or to stop sending you messages, by contacting us below. Third-party services such as PayPal handle your data under their own privacy policies.
8. Changes to this Policy
We may update this Policy. The "Last updated" date above shows when it was last revised.
