Administering approved ministry partnerships and humanitarian initiatives.

Fulfilling applicable legal, financial, and reporting obligations.
We seek to collect and use only the information reasonably necessary to carry out these purposes.
CrownLife International respects the privacy and confidentiality of its donors and supporters.
We do not sell donor contact information or charitable giving histories.
For ministry accountability and appropriate acknowledgment of charitable support, CrownLife may provide an approved pastor or ministry partner with limited donation information consisting of:
The donor's first and last name.
The date of the contribution.
The amount of the contribution.
This information is provided through restricted-access ministry accounting records to document contributions and enable ministry partners to recognize and thank their supporters.
Donor email addresses, telephone numbers, mailing addresses, payment-card information, and other personal contact details are not included in these pastor-facing accounting records.
Access to these records is limited to the designated ministry partner and authorized CrownLife leadership responsible for financial administration and oversight.
Ministry partners are not authorized to publish these records, distribute donor information to unrelated parties, or use the information for purposes unrelated to approved ministry activities.
CrownLife may also share information with authorized service providers when reasonably necessary for payment processing, recordkeeping, communications, or other legitimate administrative functions, or when required or permitted by applicable law.
We do not publicly disclose individual donor identities or giving histories without appropriate authorization, except where disclosure is legally required.
CrownLife International utilizes established third-party donation and payment services, including Donorbox, Tithely, Zeffy, and Stripe, to facilitate charitable contributions.
Depending on the donation platform and payment method selected, donors may also have access to PayPal, Google Pay, and other supported payment options.
For standard online contributions, payment-card information is collected and processed through the applicable payment provider.
CrownLife does not ordinarily receive, access, or store complete credit-card numbers or card security codes through its online donation platforms.
In limited circumstances, authorized CrownLife personnel may assist donors directly with contributions at their request, using procedures intended to protect confidential payment information.
Third-party payment providers maintain their own privacy and security policies governing the information they collect and process.
Donors are encouraged to review the applicable payment provider's privacy policy when making contributions.
CrownLife's websites and third-party service providers may use cookies or similar technologies to support website functionality, security, donation processing, and performance measurement.
Visitors can generally manage cookies through their browser settings. Some website features or payment services may not function properly when certain cookies are disabled.
Where applicable law requires additional consent or privacy controls for particular technologies, CrownLife will seek to provide those controls.
Individuals who provide contact information may receive communications relating to their contributions, ministry relationships, inquiries, or requested subscriptions.
Where permitted by applicable law, CrownLife may also send newsletters, ministry updates, prayer requests, and charitable fundraising communications.
Recipients may request removal from optional mailing lists or use an available unsubscribe mechanism.
Certain administrative communications, including contribution acknowledgments and necessary transaction notices, may continue when appropriate.
CrownLife International seeks to maintain reasonable administrative, physical, and technical safeguards appropriate to the nature of the information it handles.
Access to organizational, donor, and financial records is restricted according to authorized administrative responsibilities.
We also rely on third-party providers for certain payment-processing, website-hosting, and communications functions.
Although we take reasonable steps to safeguard information, no electronic storage or internet transmission system can be guaranteed completely secure.
CrownLife retains personal information for as long as reasonably necessary to fulfill its charitable purposes, maintain accurate financial and organizational records, comply with applicable legal obligations, and address legitimate operational needs.
Retention periods may vary according to the type of information and applicable requirements.
When information is no longer reasonably required, CrownLife seeks to delete, anonymize, or otherwise appropriately dispose of it, subject to applicable legal and recordkeeping obligations.
Depending on applicable law and an individual's circumstances, certain persons may have rights to request access to, correction of, or deletion of personal information maintained by CrownLife International.
Additional privacy rights may apply in particular jurisdictions.
Requests may be subject to identity verification, applicable legal exceptions, and legitimate recordkeeping obligations.

If a parent or guardian believes that a child has provided personal information without appropriate authorization, they may contact CrownLife so the matter can be reviewed and appropriate action taken.
Our charitable activities may include assistance to orphans, children, widows, and vulnerable families. Information obtained in administering such activities is handled in accordance with applicable safeguarding, confidentiality, and recordkeeping responsibilities.
