Privacy policy
What information do we collect? How we will use it?
American Baptist Home Mission Societies does not sell or rent your personal information for any purpose. We also do not partner with or have special relationships with any ad server companies.
When you sign up for a free Web-based publication or free print subscription online, we collect your contact information (like name, e-mail and postal address) and demographic information (like zip code or age range). However, when you sign up for a paid subscription online we also require your financial information (like credit card numbers) to process your payment; we do not retain your credit card information.
The contact information is used to send the requested materials to you by mail, get in touch with you when necessary, and grant you access to our online subscriber’s area. Our editors use the demographic data to get a better understanding of our visitors. Visitors to our Web site can ‘opt-in’ when filling out online forms to receive additional information from American Baptist Home Mission Societies.
