Grace Community Church

Privacy Policy

Last updated: August 7, 2026

Who we are

This Privacy Policy describes how personal information is handled in the member hub for Grace Community Church.

This Hub is typically run as a dedicated instance for one church (not a multi-tenant marketplace).

Information we collect

Account data: name, email address, password (stored as a secure hash, not plain text), role (member/admin).

Optional contact details you add: phone number and mailing address (stored with your profile; shown on the Directory only if you opt in).

Optional profile photo you upload (shown on your profile and in the member Directory).

Content you provide: messages, prayer requests, meal sign-ups and notes, profile preferences.

Technical data: session cookies for sign-in, optional browser push subscription details if you enable push, and basic server logs from the host.

Optional church branding: logo image stored for this Hub instance.

How we use information

To operate the Hub: authentication, messaging, prayer list, meal planning, directory, and notifications (in-app, and email/push if configured).

To communicate church-related notices you have opted into via notification preferences.

We do not sell your personal information.

Sharing

Content you post may be visible to other members of Grace Community Church’s Hub (and admins).

Directory: your name is listed with active members. Email, phone, and mailing address appear only when you enable each item under Profile → Directory contact. You may turn sharing off at any time.

Admins can see member emails in Admin for account management, separate from Directory sharing.

Infrastructure providers (for example website hosting and database hosting) process data only to run the service, under their terms with the account owner.

If email or push is enabled, those providers process delivery data needed to send notifications.

Retention and deletion

Data is retained while your account is active and the Hub is operated for the church.

You may request deletion by using Delete my account in Profile, which removes your member record and cascaded personal data (messages you authored, sign-ups, notifications, push subscriptions, prayer requests you submitted).

Some residual backups may exist for a limited time with the hosting provider, according to their retention practices.

Admins may deactivate accounts without full deletion when needed for safety or records; contact an admin if you need help.

Your choices

Update your display name and password in Profile.

Choose what contact details appear on the Directory under Profile → Directory contact.

Adjust email/push and category preferences under Profile → Notifications.

Export a copy of your data from Profile when available.

Delete your account permanently from Profile (with password confirmation).

Children

This Hub is intended for members as authorized by the church. If a minor uses the Hub, a parent or guardian and church policy should govern appropriate use and consent.
