Privacy Policy

Your privacy is important to The Wesleyan Church. This statement discloses the information practices for www.nhwchurch.ca, including what type of information is gathered and tracked, how the information is used and with whom the information is shared.

Personal Information

In general, you can visit the New Hope Wesleyan Church on the Web without telling us who you are and without revealing any information about yourself. There are times, however, when we or our partners may need information from you. You may choose to give us personal information, such as your name, address or e-mail, which may be used in correspondence, to process an order or to provide you with other information. It is our intent to let you know how we will use such information before we collect it from you on the Internet. If you tell us that you do not want us to use this information as a basis for further contact with you, we will respect your wishes. We do not give, sell, trade, or rent any personally identifiable information on a visitor to any third party, except where necessary to serve the needs of that visitor.

All personal information provided to New Hope Wesleyan Church will only be used internally for ministry purposes; access to this data is restricted only to those who need it in order to do their jobs. We use your IP address to help diagnose problems with our server and to administer our Web site. Your IP address is used to gather broad demographic information.

Cookies and Other Technologies

We sometimes collect anonymous information from visits to our site to help us provide better customer service. For example, we keep track of the domains from which people visit and we also measure visitor activity on the New Hope Wesleyan website, but we do so in ways that keep the information anonymous. This anonymous information is sometimes known as “clickstream data.” The Wesleyan Church or its vendors may use this data to analyze trends and statistics and to help us provide better customer service.

Also, when we collect personal data from you in connection with a transaction, we may extract some information about that transaction in an anonymous format and combine it with other anonymous information such as clickstream data. This anonymous information is used and analyzed only at an aggregate level to help us understand trends and patterns. None of this information is reviewed at an individual level. If you do not want your transaction details used in this manner, you can either disable your cookies or opt-out at the order or request page.

We collect the anonymous information we mentioned in the previous paragraphs through the use of various technologies, including one called “cookies.” A cookie is an element of data that a website can send to your browser, which may then be stored on your system. Some pages at www.nhwchurch.ca may use cookies, sent by The Wesleyan Church or its third party vendors/partners, or other technologies to better serve you when you return to the site. You can set your browser to notify you before you receive a cookie, giving you the chance to decide whether to accept it. You can also set your browser to turn off cookies. If you do so, however, some areas of some sites may not function properly.

As you browse www.nhwchurch.ca you may have opportunity to visit partner websites. If you choose to link to one of our partners, it is assumed that you are now conducting business directly with that organization/company. At this point it becomes your responsibility to be aware of their privacy statements and guidelines.
