Your privacy is important to us. To better protect your privacy we provide this notice explaining our online information practices. To make this notice easy to find, we make it available on our homepage and on any other pages where any information may be requested.
This notice applies to all information collected or submitted on the website www.chataboutjesus.com operated by Need Him Ministries. The only purpose in collecting information is so we can have an online chat conversation about what it means to have a personal relationship with Jesus Christ. The type of information collected is limited to First Name and the topic that brings you to our site. We do not attempt to collect any personally identifiable information such as last name, email address or other data that would allow us to identify the exact person we are chatting with online or ever follow up with that person.
Device information: We may collect information about the device you use to access our API client, including the device type, operating system, and unique device identifiers.
Log data: Our servers automatically record certain log information when you use our API client. This may include your IP address, browser type, and interactions with the API client.
We use the information you provide about yourself for the sole purpose of having an online chat conversation about what it means to have a personal relationship with Jesus Christ. At no time will any information collected be used to follow up with the person contacting our web site or with any other third party. We use non-identifying and aggregate information to better design our website and to understand the nature of the topics people are seeking to discuss. For example, if we see a large percentage of topics include questions about forgiveness then we will use that information to better train and equip our responders to discuss that topic but we do not collect or disclose anything that could be used to identify the individuals that visit our site.
To prevent unauthorized access, maintain data accuracy, and ensure the correct use of information, we have put in place appropriate physical, electronic, and managerial procedures to safeguard and secure the information we collect online.
Protecting the privacy of the very young is especially important. For that reason, we never collect personally identifiable information from any visitor and no part of our website is structured to target or attract anyone under 13.
