Information you give us

You can use most of this website without telling us who you are. We only receive personal information when you choose to fill in one of our forms:

  • Contact and "Drop us a line" forms: your name, e-mail address and message.
  • Prayer request: your name and the prayer request you share.
  • Membership and member family details forms: contact details, dates of birth, family members, church membership, baptism, confirmation and marriage details, and, if you choose to add them, profession, blood group, a photograph and a short write-up.
  • Sunday School registration: the child's name, date of birth and school, and the parents' names, phone numbers and e-mail addresses. This form should be filled in by a parent or guardian.
  • Hall and ground booking: your name, address, contact details, church affiliation, the purpose and dates of the booking, and payment details you record (payment mode, bank, date and amount). No card or online payments are taken on this website.
  • School form and e-mail/SMS verification: the details asked for on those forms.

Please only share information about other people (for example family members) if they are happy for you to do so.

How we use it

We use this information only for the purpose for which you gave it: to reply to you, to pray for you, to keep the Church's membership and Sunday School records, to handle hall and ground bookings, and to send you Church communication you asked for. We do not sell your information or use it for advertising.

Who can see it

Form submissions are stored on the website and can be seen by the website administrators and by the Church office bearers and committee members who need them for the purpose above (for example the Hall Booking Committee for bookings, or Sunday School teachers for registrations). Prayer requests are seen by the Presbyter and those who pray for them. We may share information where the law requires it.

Services from other companies

Some parts of this website use services run by other companies, which may receive your IP address and set their own cookies when you use them:

  • Google reCAPTCHA on our forms, to stop spam.
  • Google Maps, the map on the Contact page.
  • Google Fonts, for the lettering on this website.
  • YouTube, when you follow our links to watch a service.

Their own privacy policies apply to how they handle that information.

Cookies

This website does not use cookies for tracking or advertising. A cookie is only set when a website administrator logs in, to keep them logged in. The third-party services listed above may set their own cookies.

Keeping information safe

We take reasonable care to protect the information you send us, but no website can be completely secure. Please do not send sensitive information that the form does not ask for.

How long we keep it

We keep information for as long as the Church needs it for the purpose it was given. Membership and Sunday School records are kept as part of the Church's records.

We may update this page from time to time. The date at the top shows when it was last changed.
