Effective Date: October 6, 2026
This Privacy Policy explains how personal information may be collected, used, and protected when you visit the website of Susan Violette and Vinedressers Prayer Ministry (the “Website,” “we,” “us,” or “our”). By using the Website, you acknowledge the practices described in this policy.
1. Information We May Collect
Information you provide voluntarily. If you use the contact form or otherwise communicate with us through the Website, we may receive information such as your name, email address, organization or ministry name (if provided), and the contents of your message.
Information collected automatically. The Website’s hosting provider and related technical services may automatically receive limited technical information, such as your IP address, browser or device type, pages visited, referring page, and the date and time of access. Cookies or similar technologies may also be used for basic website functionality and, if enabled, website analytics.
2. How We Use Information
We may use personal information to respond to inquiries, communicate about books, seminars, speaking or ministry resources, operate and maintain the Website, understand general website usage, protect the Website from misuse or security threats, and comply with applicable legal obligations.
3. Sensitive, Counseling, and Health Information
This Website and its general contact form are not intended to collect medical records, mental-health information, counseling histories, diagnoses, treatment information, crisis information, or other highly sensitive personal information. Please do not submit that type of information through the Website contact form.
Submitting a Website message does not create a counselor-client, therapist-client, pastoral-care, or other confidential professional relationship. The Website is not an emergency or crisis-response service.
4. Children’s Privacy
The Website includes information about books and resources that may be appropriate for children and families. However, Website contact forms and inquiries are intended for adults, such as parents, guardians, educators, ministry leaders, event organizers, and other adult visitors.
We do not knowingly request or collect personal information online from children under 13 through the Website. A child under 13 should not submit a name, email address, school information, location, photo, or other personal information through the Website. If we learn that personal information from a child under 13 has been submitted to us without appropriate parental involvement, we will take reasonable steps to delete it.
5. Cookies and Analytics
The Website may use cookies or similar technologies that are necessary for site operation. If basic analytics are enabled, they may be used to understand aggregate Website traffic and performance. If additional nonessential tracking, advertising, or analytics technologies are added in the future, this policy should be updated and any legally required notice or consent mechanism should be provided.
6. How Information May Be Shared
We do not sell or rent personal information. We may share information with service providers that help operate the Website or communications functions, such as website hosting, security, technical support, email, or analytics providers, but only as reasonably necessary for those services. We may also disclose information when required by law or when reasonably necessary to protect rights, safety, or the integrity of the Website.
7. Third-Party Websites and Purchases
The Website may contain links to third-party websites, including publishers, booksellers, social media platforms, or other services. When you follow an external link, that third party’s privacy practices and terms apply. At this time, purchases are intended to occur through third-party sellers rather than through payment processing on this Website.
8. Data Retention and Security
We retain personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purpose for which it was provided, for legitimate recordkeeping, or as required by law. Reasonable administrative and technical measures are used to protect information; however, no internet transmission or electronic storage system can be guaranteed to be completely secure.
9. Your Privacy Choices and Requests
You may contact us to request correction or deletion of personal information you have submitted through the Website. Depending on where you live, applicable law may provide additional privacy rights. Requests may be submitted through the Website’s Contact page.
10. Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time as the Website, services, or legal requirements change. The current version will be posted on this page with an updated effective date.
11. Contact
