We use necessary cookies for core functionality and may use analytics or preference cookies to understand usage and improve experience. Where required, we will request consent. You can manage cookies in your browser settings; disabling some cookies may affect functionality.

We retain personal information only as long as necessary for the purposes described e.g., transaction records for tax/audit requirements; account or newsletter data until you unsubscribe or request deletion—unless a longer period is required or allowed by law.

You may unsubscribe from emails via the link in our messages or by contacting us. You may request access to, correction or deletion of your personal data, or restriction of processing; object to certain processing; and request data portability where applicable. To exercise rights, contact joinbethelohim@gmail.com. We may need to verify your identity.

Your data may be processed in countries with different data protection laws. Where required, we implement appropriate safeguards (e.g., UK/EU Standard Contractual Clauses).

We serve families, but do not knowingly collect personal information from children without appropriate consent from a parent/guardian. If you believe a child provided personal data without consent, contact us to request deletion.

We use administrative, technical, and physical safeguards appropriate to the nature of the information processed. No method of transmission or storage is 100% secure

Our Site links to and embeds third-party services (e.g., social media, affiliated resources). Their data practices are governed by their own policies, which we encourage you to review.

We may update this Policy periodically. If changes materially affect your rights, we’ll take reasonable steps to notify you. The “Effective” date above reflects the latest revision.
