Effective Date: August 3, 2026

Amazing Church California respects your privacy and is committed to protecting the personal information you provide when using the Amazing Church California mobile application and related website services.

This Privacy Policy explains the information we collect, how we use it, when it may be shared and the choices available to you.

1. Who We Are

The Amazing Church California application is operated on behalf of Amazing Church California, also referred to in this policy as “Amazing Church,” “we,” “our” or “us.”

The application provides church community features such as user accounts, church announcements, events, groups, posts, comments, private and group messaging, media sharing and communication with church staff and community members.

2. Information We Collect

The information collected depends on the features you choose to use.

Account information

When you register for or use an account, we may collect:

Your name
Your email address
Your username or account ID
Your account credentials
Information you voluntarily add to your profile

We use this information to create and maintain your account, authenticate your access and provide personalized app functionality.

User-generated content

When you participate in the community, we may collect content you voluntarily submit, including:

Posts and comments
Private and group messages
Prayer requests or support requests
Photos and videos
Audio recordings
Profile information
Responses submitted through groups, forms or discussions

Content may be associated with your account depending on where and how you submit it.

Customer-support information

When you contact us for assistance, we may collect your name, email address, account information, the contents of your request and other information necessary to respond.

Diagnostic information

We or our service providers may collect crash reports and limited technical information when the app experiences an error. This information is used to diagnose technical problems, improve app stability and prevent crashes.

Depending on the technical configuration, diagnostic information may be associated with an account identifier.

Device permissions

The app may request permission to access certain features on your device, including:

Camera
Photo library
Microphone
Notifications

These permissions are used only to provide the feature you request. For example, photo-library access may be used when you choose to upload a photograph.

You may change these permissions through your device settings.

3. How We Use Information

We use collected information to:

Register, authenticate and maintain user accounts
Provide groups, messaging, posts, comments and other community features
Display content that users choose to share
Deliver church announcements, event information and notifications
Respond to support requests
Protect the security and integrity of the app
Enforce our community rules and Terms of Service
Diagnose crashes and improve app reliability
Comply with legal obligations

We do not use personal information for purposes materially different from those described in this policy without providing appropriate notice.

4. No Cross-App Tracking

Amazing Church California does not use personal information to track users across apps or websites owned by other companies.

We do not:

Sell personal information
Share personal information with data brokers
Share email lists with advertising networks for retargeting
Combine app information with third-party information for targeted advertising
Use advertising identifiers to follow users across unrelated apps or websites

The app does not require App Tracking Transparency permission because the app does not engage in tracking as defined by Apple.

5. How Information May Be Shared

We may share information in the following limited circumstances.

With other app users

Information you choose to post in a profile, group, discussion, comment or message may be visible to the people permitted to access that area.

Private messages are intended only for their participants, although authorized administrators may access information when reasonably necessary to investigate abuse, maintain security, respond to legal requirements or enforce community policies.

With service providers

We may use service providers for hosting, authentication, notifications, technical infrastructure, email delivery, customer support and crash reporting.

These providers may process limited information on our behalf only as necessary to provide their services. They are not authorized by us to use this information for independent targeted advertising or cross-app tracking.

For safety and legal reasons

We may disclose information when reasonably necessary to:

Comply with applicable law, legal process or governmental requests
Protect the rights, safety or property of Amazing Church, its users or others
Investigate fraud, abuse, harassment or security incidents
Enforce our Terms of Service and community rules

6. Public and Community Content

Information you post in publicly visible or community-accessible areas may be seen, saved or shared by other users.

Please avoid posting information that you do not want others to access. You are responsible for the content you voluntarily submit through the app.

7. Data Retention

We retain personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary to:

Provide the app and maintain your account
Fulfill the purposes described in this policy
Resolve disputes
Maintain security
Meet legal and recordkeeping obligations

User content may remain available until it is deleted by the user, removed by an administrator or deleted as part of an account-deletion request. Some information may remain temporarily in backups or security records.

8. Account and Data Deletion

You may edit or remove certain profile information and user content through the app where those controls are available.

You may request deletion of your account and associated personal information by using the account-deletion option available within the app or by contacting us at:

Email: [INSERT PRIVACY OR SUPPORT EMAIL]

We may retain limited information when required by law, necessary for security or needed to document compliance with legal obligations.

9. Security

We use reasonable administrative, technical and organizational safeguards designed to protect personal information.

No electronic transmission or storage system can be guaranteed to be completely secure. Users are responsible for protecting their account credentials and should notify us if they believe their account has been accessed without authorization.

10. Children’s Privacy

The app is not intended for children under 13 to create and operate accounts independently without the involvement of a parent, guardian or authorized church representative.

Parents or guardians who believe that a child provided personal information without appropriate permission may contact us to request review or deletion.

11. Your Privacy Rights

Depending on where you live, you may have the right to request:

Access to personal information we maintain about you
Correction of inaccurate information
Deletion of personal information
Information about how your personal information is used or shared
A copy of certain information in a portable format

These rights may be subject to applicable exceptions. To submit a request, contact us using the information below.

12. Changes to This Policy
