Privacy policy

Effective date: October 20, 2026

Freedom in Christ (“we”, “us”) is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization based at 89 Pete Luther Rd, Candler, NC 28715, USA. This policy explains what information we collect when you visit www.freedom-christ.org, how we use it and the choices you have. We collect as little as we need, and we never sell or rent your information.

Information you give us

  • Contact form. Your name, email address and message. They are sent to us by email so we can reply.
  • Partnership form. Your name, email, phone number, the project you choose, the type of support and the amount. We use them to contact you about your support.
  • Email and phone. When you write to info@freedom-christ.org or call us, we receive your contact details and whatever you choose to tell us.

Donations

Card donations are processed by Stripe on its secure checkout page. Your card details go directly to Stripe; our website never sees or stores them. We receive your name, email, the amount and the date, which we use to record your gift, send receipts and meet our legal and tax obligations. Stripe handles your data under its own privacy policy.

Information collected automatically

  • Analytics. We use Umami to count page visits and clicks on our Donate buttons. Umami does not use cookies and does not collect names, email addresses or other personal information; we see only totals such as pages viewed, device type and country.
  • Fonts. Our fonts are loaded from Google Fonts, so your browser sends your IP address to Google. See Google’s privacy policy.
  • Videos. Some blog posts include YouTube videos in privacy-enhanced mode (youtube-nocookie.com). YouTube receives information only when you play a video.
  • Server logs. Like every website, our hosting provider records technical data such as IP address and browser type to keep the site secure and working.

Cookies

Our website does not use advertising or tracking cookies. Third-party services you choose to use, such as Stripe checkout or a YouTube video, may set their own cookies. You can block or delete cookies in your browser settings.

How we use your information

We use your information only to answer your messages, process and acknowledge donations, tell you about the projects you support if you ask us to, and improve our website. You can ask us to stop contacting you at any time.

Sharing

We do not sell, rent or trade your information. We share it only with service providers that help us run our work (payment processing, email, website hosting and analytics) and only as needed for that service, or when the law requires it. We do not pass donors’ personal details to partner ministries abroad.

How long we keep it and how we protect it

We keep information only as long as needed to respond to you, maintain donation records and meet legal and tax requirements. The website uses HTTPS encryption, and access to your information is limited to people who need it for their work.

Your choices

You can ask us what information we have about you, ask us to correct or delete it, or unsubscribe from our messages. Write to info@freedom-christ.org and we will respond within 30 days. Records we are required to keep by law, such as donation records, may be kept for the required period.

Children

Our website is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect their personal information. If you believe a child has sent us information, contact us and we will delete it.

Links to other websites

Our website links to other sites, such as Google Maps, Stripe and YouTube. We are not responsible for their privacy practices; please read their policies.

Changes to this policy

We may update this policy from time to time. The effective date at the top shows when it last changed.
