Privacy Policy

Your privacy is important to us

This website, http://www.thewayofthespirit.com/, is operated by The Way of the Spirit as a resource for anyone who is using, or interested in using, The Way of the Spirit Bible Reading Course and related materials. This Privacy Policy describes our procedures and policies concerning the collection and use of personal information via our web site.

Use of our web site constitutes your consent to us to collect and process information as described in this privacy policy. If you are not happy with any of its provisions, please do not use our web site or permit your children to do so. Of course, if you have any queries, suggestions or requests, please don't hesitate to contact us.

In general, our policy is to keep the collection and processing of personal data down to the minimum necessary for us to provide you with the services that you see on our web site. We want this site to be first and foremost a blessing to you, and for you to enjoy it.

  • We will not sell or disclose your personal information to anyone.
  • We will only share personal information as required by law.
  • We restrict access to your personal information to those employees who have need to use that information to provide products or services to you.
  • We maintain electronic and procedural safeguards to protect personal information we obtain about you.

What information do we collect?

We do not collect any unique personal information about you (such as your name, e-mail address etc) except when you specifically and knowingly provide such information.

We note and save such information as time of day, browser type and language with each web page requested. This information is only used for statistical purposes and is not identifiable in connection to any specific user. It does include your IP address--a set of numbers that identifies your computer (or local area network) to the Internet. While theoretically we could identify you from your IP address and the time of your visit, in practice we would need to obtain this information from your Internet Service Provider, and they would only part with such information for law enforcement purposes.

Our E-Newsletter

When you subscribe to our e-newsletter, you are asked to activate your subscription, this is the recommended best practice for e-newsletter management as it provides you with an assurance that you are only receiving it because you have asked to do so. Subscriptions that are not activated within 30 days, or that are unsubscribed, are automatically removed from our database. E-mail addresses added to this list are used for the sole purpose of sending our e-newsletter to you, and are not shared with any other party.

Contact Us and Online Application Forms

Personal information (name, address etc) provided in this manner is used only for the purpose of processing your request or application. We will add you to our mailing list only if you explicitly authorise us to do so.

Mailing List

We maintain a mailing list of people who have purchased materials from The Way of the Spirit or attended our conferences or Kingdom Faith Revival College etc. This is used for the sole purpose of sending out information on teaching days, events and the like. We only add people to this mailing list if they have given their consent to us to do so. If you receive any unwanted mail from us, or multiple copies of any mailing, or if it is going to the wrong address, please contact us and help us to keep postage costs down.

Extracts from our mailing list are from time to time shared with our course co-ordinators and Kingdom Faith covenant related churches under the strict condition that they are used for the sole purpose of sending information about their activities with The Way of the Spirit.

Cookies

Cookies are not actively used on the publicly accessible areas of this site.

Third Party Advertising

We do not provide advertising for third parties other than for products and services that in our sole opinion are of direct and important relevance to The Way of the Spirit, or where we are required to do so by the terms and conditions of any software or services used on this site. We do not use "web bugs" (single pixel GIF images used on some web sites to help third party advertisers to track visitors) or exchange data with any third party content providers.

Visitors under 13 years of age

If you are under 13 years old, you must get the consent of your parent or guardian before providing us with personal information. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under the age of thirteen.
