How do we use your information?

When and where we ask you to provide personal information (e.g. forms or login information for certain services), you may decline to submit personal information, in which case OIKEOS Christian Network may not be able to provide that access or specific service to you.

Your email address is only used for current and future OIKEOS Christian Network program communications you’ve opted-in to receive. We never sell, share, or spam.

How do we share your information?

OIKEOS Christian Network does not share your personal information with other organizations outside of OIKEOS Christian Network. However, OIKEOS Christian Network may share your personal information if we, in good faith, believe that access, use, preservation or disclosure of such information is reasonably necessary to (a) satisfy any applicable law, regulation, legal process or enforceable governmental request, (b) enforce applicable Terms Of Service, including investigation of potential violations thereof, (c) detect, prevent, or otherwise address fraud, security or technical issues, or (d) protect against imminent harm to the rights, property or safety of OIKEOS Christian Network, its users or the public as required or permitted by law.

Information security

OIKEOS Christian Network takes commercially reasonable steps to implement appropriate security measures to protect against unauthorized access to or unauthorized alteration, disclosure or destruction of data. These steps may include internal reviews of our data collection, storage and processing practices and security measures, as well as physical security measures to guard against unauthorized access to systems where we store personal data. We restrict access to personal information to OIKEOS Christian Network governance team members, employees, contractors and agents who need to know that information to operate, develop or improve our services. These individuals are bound by confidentiality obligations and may be subject to discipline, including termination and criminal prosecution, if they fail to meet these obligations. OIKEOS Christian Network is not responsible, however, if unauthorized access to information occurs.

Data integrity

We review our data collection, storage and processing practices to ensure that we only collect, store and process the personal information needed to provide or improve our services. We take reasonable steps to ensure that the personal information we process is accurate, complete, and current, but we depend on our users to update or correct their personal information whenever necessary.

OIKEOS Christian Network periodically reviews its compliance with this Privacy Policy. When we receive formal written complaints regarding privacy issues, it is our policy to contact the complaining user regarding his or her concerns.

We will cooperate with the appropriate regulatory authorities, including local data protection authorities, to resolve any complaints regarding the transfer of personal data that cannot be resolved between OIKEOS Christian Network and an individual.
