Privacy Policy
The following is a statement of the McDonough Bible Institute's (MBI)
general policies for the use of visitor information collected through
our Websites. Some areas may have specific policies regarding the
privacy of user-provided information and may contain exceptions to this
statement. Consult the statement posted under that area's webpage for
the appropriate information.
Our Commitment to Privacy
Your privacy is important to us. To better protect your privacy, we
provide this notice explaining our online information practices and the
choices you can make about the way your information is collected and
used.
The Information We Collect
This notice applies to all information collected or submitted
on McDonough Bible Institute's website, unless otherwise posted. On some
pages, you may order products, register for conferences, make requests,
and register/subscribe to receive materials. The types of personal
information collected at these pages are:
- Name
- Address
- Email address
- Phone number
- Credit/Debit Card information
- Radio Station call letters
On some pages you may submit information about other people. For
example, if you order a gift subscription and want it sent directly to
the recipient, you will need to submit the recipient's address. In this
case, the types of personal information collected are:
- Name
- Relation (if any)
- Address
- Phone number
- Email address
Additionally, we collect certain information in our server log files,
whether or not you send us a request to help us maintain and improve the
performance of our web servers. This information includes the IP
address, type of browser, the page you were referred from, the page you
are visiting, and the time of the visit. We also collect the same
information when you receive an error page. No personal information is
contained in these logs. We do use statistical software to analyze our
logs to obtain aggregate values on how many times a page is viewed,
total number of visitors by country, browser popularity, and other
similar totals.
When you visit any McDonough Bible Institute Website, we send one or
more cookies—a small file containing a string of characters—to your
computer that uniquely identifies your browser. We use cookies to
improve the quality of our service by storing user preferences and
tracking user trends, such as how people search. Most browsers are
initially set up to accept cookies, but you can reset your browser to
refuse all cookies or to indicate when a cookie is being sent. However,
some McDonough Bible Institute Website features and services may not
function properly if your cookies are disabled.
Kids and Teens
Please be sure to ask your parents for permission before you send any
information about yourself to us or anyone else online or over the
Internet. If you are under the age of 13, you must obtain permission
from your parents. They simply need to send us an email indicating their
approval of your participation in any of the services/resources which
require the collection of personal information on our Website.
Parents
Any information collected by McDonough Bible Institute from
children/teens is used only for the purpose of delivering the requested
service/materials. If you have a question, or would like to review or
delete your child’s information, please contact us via email to the Web

The Way We Use Information
We use the information you provide about yourself when using an
online form only to complete that contact. We do not share this
information with outside parties except to the extent necessary to
complete/resolve that contact (i.e., verifying credit authorization or
sending a package through a postal/delivery system).
We use the information you provide about someone else when placing a
request only to mail the materials and to confirm delivery. We do not
share this information with outside parties except to the extent
necessary to complete that request.
We offer gift subscriptions or co-registrations by which you can
request a service or item for another person. Information you provide to
us to create an alternate user is used only for that purpose, and it
is disclosed only to the person receiving the service/item.
We use return email addresses to answer the email we receive. Such
addresses are not used for any other purpose and are not shared with
outside parties. If you subscribe to an email newsletter or request to
be kept on a list for notification of events or information from
McDonough, such addresses are used for those purposes and are not shared
with outside parties.
Finally, we never use or share the personally identifiable
information provided to us online or offline in ways unrelated to the
ones described above. We do not sell, trade, or share our donor list
with any other organization. If you have subscribed to an email
newsletter you may log in to change the settings. If you have problems
logging in or are having problems getting off a list, please contact the
web administrator at rshepherd@mcdonoughcofc.org.
Our Commitment to Data Security
To prevent unauthorized access, maintain data accuracy and ensure the
correct use of information, we have put in place appropriate physical,
electronic, and managerial procedures to safeguard and secure the
information we collect online.
How You Can Correct Your Information
You can correct factual errors in your personally identifiable
information by sending us a request via email or postal mail that
credibly shows error.
