Privacy Policy

Effective date: May 4, 2026

Masonville-Rancocas United Methodist Church ("the Church," "we," "us," or "our") respects the privacy of visitors, members, guests, donors, volunteers, and families who use this website at masumc.org. This Privacy Policy explains what information may be collected through the website, how it may be used, when it may be shared, and what choices users may have regarding their information.

Information we may collect

The Church may collect information that visitors voluntarily submit through contact forms, ministry inquiries, event registrations, prayer requests, volunteer forms, newsletter signups, or other website features. This may include names, email addresses, phone numbers, mailing addresses, donation-related details, and any messages or requests users choose to submit.

The website may also automatically collect limited technical information such as IP address, browser type, device type, pages visited, referring pages, and general usage data through cookies, analytics tools, or Wix platform services.

How we use information

Information submitted through the website may be used to respond to messages, pray for submitted requests, communicate with visitors, process donations, send ministry updates, register people for events, coordinate volunteers, improve the website, maintain security, and support the Church's ministry and administrative operations.

If a visitor signs up for emails or other updates, that contact information may be used to send service announcements, church news, event reminders, giving updates, and other ministry-related communications. Recipients may unsubscribe from nonessential communications by using the unsubscribe link in email messages or by contacting the Church directly.

Prayer requests and sensitive submissions

Prayer requests and similar submissions may contain sensitive or personal information. Unless a form clearly states that a request may be shared more broadly, prayer requests should be treated as private and used only for the purpose indicated by the form.

Donations and online giving

If this website accepts donations, tithes, offerings, or event payments, those transactions may be processed through third-party providers such as Tithe.ly. Payment card or bank information is generally processed by the giving provider and not stored directly by the Church unless explicitly stated otherwise.

Donor information may be used for gift processing, contribution records, donor communication, tax receipts, stewardship records, and follow-up related to the gift.

Cookies and analytics

This website may use cookies and similar technologies to operate core features, remember preferences, analyze traffic, improve content, and monitor site performance. Wix and connected third-party services may place cookies or collect usage information in accordance with their own privacy policies.

Sharing of information

Personal information may be shared only as reasonably necessary with trusted service providers that support church operations, such as Wix, Tithe.ly, email service providers, analytics providers, livestream tools, or event tools. Information may also be disclosed when required by law or when necessary to protect the rights, safety, or property of the Church or others.

The Church does not sell personal information to third parties.

Children's information

The Church may offer children's ministry pages, events, or family registrations. Personal information about minors should only be collected, used, and shared in a way that is appropriate, limited, and consistent with applicable law and Church policy. Parents or guardians may contact the Church with any concerns regarding information related to a minor.

Third-party links and embedded content

This website may contain links to or embedded content from third-party platforms such as livestream providers, maps, social media, video hosts, event tools, or donation tools. Those third-party services have their own privacy practices, and the Church is not responsible for their content or policies.

Data retention

Personal information may be retained for as long as reasonably necessary for ministry, communication, legal, tax, recordkeeping, or administrative purposes, or as otherwise required by law.

Your rights and choices

Depending on applicable law, users may have the right to request access to their personal information, request corrections, ask for deletion of certain information, or opt out of certain communications. Privacy-related requests may be submitted using the contact information listed below.

Changes to this Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy may be updated from time to time. When changes are made, the revised version will be posted on this page with an updated effective date.
