What personal data we collect and why we collect it
Comments
When visitors leave comments on the site we collect the data shown in the comments form, and also the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to help spam detection.
An anonymized string created from your email address (also called a hash) may be provided to the Gravatar service to see if you are using it. The Gravatar service privacy policy is available here: https://automattic.com/privacy/. After approval of your comment, your profile picture is visible to the public in the context of your comment.
Media
If you upload images to the website, you should avoid uploading images with embedded location data (EXIF GPS) included. Visitors to the website can download and extract any location data from images on the website.
Contact forms
Information from the contact form is accessed by someone from Wycliffe Church who will attempt to answer your query, and stored in the form of a password protected email on our hosting company’s servers sited in the UK for as long as it takes to answer your query/resolve your issue. You may elect to have your information completely removed from this system by using the contact form to make your request.
Sales/donations
With the exception of credit card info, we store the information from your order /donation form to allow us to fulfil the order, compile accounts and/or refer to a previous order to help provide some customer service. Orders/donations are taken using the Square digital payment system and we do not have access to/store your bank/card details. Order information is stored on Square’s secure servers and in the form of password-protected emails on our hosting company’s secure servers sited in the UK.

These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with that embedded content, including tracking your interaction with the embedded content if you have an account and are logged in to that website.
Analytics
Who we share your data with
Like many Website operators, we collect information that your browser sends whenever you visit our Website (“Log Data”).
This Log Data may include information such as your computer’s Internet Protocol (“IP”) address, browser type, browser version, the pages of our Website that you visit, the time and date of your visit, the time spent on those pages and other statistics. This information is stored on our host’s secure servers, and is only used to monitor website traffic, and improve the service provided to you.
In addition, we use third-party services such as Google Analytics that collect, monitor and analyse this to help with site maintenance and improvements. This data, as above, is viewed only as anonymous statistics to show the busiest times of the day or week, pages with errors and how effective our advertising has been. This information is not used for any other purpose.
How long we retain your data
If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This is so we can recognize and approve any follow-up comments automatically instead of holding them in a moderation queue.
For users that register on our website (if any), we also store the personal information they provide in their user profile. All users can see, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (except they cannot change their username). Website administrators can also see and edit that information.
What rights you have over your data
If you have an account on this site, or have left comments, you can request to receive an exported file of the personal data we hold about you, including any data you have provided to us. You can also request that we erase any personal data we hold about you. This does not include any data we are obliged to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.
Where we send your data
Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service. We will not sell or give away any lists or other data that we may retain and we do not purchase such information from other sources.
