The following policy is intended to protect and secure the personally
identifiable information you provide to our ministry.
Awareness
SLCR provides this online
privacy policy to inform you of the way your information is collected
and used as well as to make you aware of our security practices. We also
provide you with the opportunity to remove your name from our postal

There are three different
ways in which we collect information from visitors on our Web site:
1. From online requests for information (i.e. e-mail newsletters,
contact forms, etc.);
2. From online requests for materials from our organization (i.e.
requesting a free offer, or committing your life to Christ.); and
3. From online donations. The information we collect online includes
name, address, city, state, ZIP/postal code, telephone number, e-mail
address, and, in the case of online donations or online shopping, credit
card number and expiration date.
How the

SLCR uses your information
to understand your needs and provide you with better online service. We
may use your information to complete a transaction, issue you an income
tax receipt for a donation, or to personalize our Web site for you. If
you so desire, we may also use this information to update you on
ministry projects and activities. Credit card numbers are used only for
donation or payment processing and are not retained for any other
purposes. We also provide you the opportunity to remove your name from
our postal mailing list, if you desire to do so. Please review the
corresponding section of this privacy policy below.
In addition, SLCR will not send you e-mail that you have not agreed to

leases or exchanges your personal information with other organizations.
