1) Our Commitment
GiveU (“we,” “us,” “our”) exists to help the Body of Christ engage in love and good works by connecting members, leaders, and churches to real needs in their communities. Privacy is stewardship. This policy explains how we collect, use, and protect your information when you use GiveU’s app or website.
2) Information We Collect
- You provide: name, email, password (for secure login); church name/code (to link you to your local body); optional profile details (photo, general location, availability, giftings); content you post (needs, opportunities, messages).
- Collected automatically: basic usage data (login timestamps, feature interactions), device/browser info, and anonymous analytics to improve performance and stability.
We do not collect or sell sensitive personal data such as financial info, racial identity, or political views.
3) How We Use Your Information
- Connect members and leaders to service opportunities and send opt-in notifications.
- Maintain secure user accounts and sessions; improve app performance and ministry effectiveness.
- Communicate updates or news only if you opt in. We do not run targeted advertising or third-party marketing.
4) How We Protect Your Data
Your data is stored on secure cloud infrastructure with encryption in transit (TLS) and at rest. We use role-based access controls so only authorized team members may access necessary data. If you wish to delete your account or personal data, email [email protected] and we will remove it within 10 business days.
5) Sharing & Disclosure
We share information only when it’s essential to operate the service (e.g., matching to your church body), required by law, or explicitly consented to by you. We never sell or rent your data.
6) Cookies & Analytics
We use lightweight cookies or local storage to keep you logged in, remember preferences, and measure performance. We do not track your browsing outside of GiveU.
7) Children’s Privacy
GiveU is designed for adults and youth operating under the oversight of their local church. We do not knowingly collect data from children under 13 without parental or church consent.
8) International Users
Our servers are located in the United States. If you access GiveU from another country, you consent to your information being transferred and processed in the U.S.
9) Updates to This Policy
As GiveU grows, we may update this policy to stay aligned with legal standards and our spiritual convictions. When we make major changes, we’ll post a clear notice on this page and/or in the app.
