Privacy Policy

North Pointe Church of Christ (“we,” “our,” or “us”) respects your privacy. This policy explains how we collect, use, and protect personal information through our website, https://northpointecofc.org, and related online services.

Information We Collect

We collect information that you voluntarily provide, such as your name, email address, phone number, and any message you send through our contact forms.

If you sign up to receive updates by email or SMS, we collect your contact information to deliver those messages.

When you make an online donation or register for an event, payment details are processed securely by a trusted third-party provider. We do not receive or store credit-card or bank-account information on our servers.

We may also collect limited technical information automatically, such as your IP address, browser type, and pages visited. This information helps us understand how visitors use our site.

How We Use Information

We use the information we collect to:

  • Communicate with you about worship services, events, ministries, and other church updates.
  • Manage email and SMS subscriptions, including reminders, opportunities to participate, or invitations to give.
  • Respond to inquiries and provide requested information.
  • Improve our website and outreach efforts through aggregated analytics.

We may use third-party tools to help us send communications and analyze website traffic. These services may use cookies or similar technologies.

Cookies and Tracking Technologies

Our website and the third-party services we use may employ cookies or similar tools to improve functionality and analyze site usage. You can adjust your browser settings to block or delete cookies if you prefer. Continued use of our site indicates consent to this limited use of cookies.

Email and SMS Communications

We use Mailchimp to send email and text-message updates. By subscribing, you agree to receive relevant communications from us. You can unsubscribe from emails at any time by clicking the “unsubscribe” link in any message or reply STOP to SMS messages.

We use a single opt-in process for subscriptions.

Data Retention

We retain contact and donor information indefinitely unless you request removal or unsubscribe from our communications.

Sharing of Information

We do not sell or rent your personal information. We share information only with service providers who perform essential functions for our church—such as email delivery, text messaging, event registration, or online giving. These providers are authorized to use your information only as necessary to provide those services.

Children’s Privacy

We do not knowingly collect personal information directly from children under 13 years old. Any information about minors is handled offline and only with parental or guardian involvement.

Security

We use reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards to protect personal information under our control. While no system is completely secure, we take precautions to reduce risks of unauthorized access or misuse.

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Continued use of our website after updates means you accept the revised policy.
