PERSONALLY IDENTIFIABLE INFORMATION

Sign-up Forms – When you sign up to receive Lutheran Bible Translators communications, you voluntarily provide us with your contact information. We may use this information to provide updates on our work, to inform you of Lutheran Bible Translator related events in your area, to provide you with personalized service, to process your voting membership, to provide you with donation receipts, etc. You may always “opt out” either now or at any time in the future, if you do not wish to receive future messages.

Comments – When visitors leave comments on the site, we collect the data shown in the comments form, the visitor’s IP address, and browser user agent string to help spam detection. Visitor comments may be checked through an external automated spam detection service.

Contracted Services – In order to process donations and provide certain other specialized services to you, we contract with professional vendors. All vendors must comply with our strict privacy policy.

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.
