This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, store, and protect your information when you visit our website or interact with any part of our content. We are committed to transparency and responsible data handling, ensuring that every visitor’s experience is safe, respectful, and secure. By using this website, you agree to the policies explained below.
1. Information We Collect
When you visit PrayerVest.com, we may collect both personal and non-personal information depending on how you interact with the website. Personal information is only collected when you intentionally provide it—for example, when subscribing to a newsletter, requesting prayer, filling a contact form, or leaving a comment. This information may include your name, email address, or any details you choose to share voluntarily.
We also collect non-personal information automatically to help us improve site performance and understand how users interact with our content. This includes device information, browser type, IP address, pages viewed, referral links, time spent on specific pages, and general geographical data. None of this information identifies you personally; instead, it is used to enhance our website’s usability, content structure, and overall user experience.
2. Cookies & Tracking Technologies
PrayerVest.com uses cookies and similar technologies to operate smoothly and deliver a personalized experience. Cookies allow our system to remember your preferences, load pages faster, and tailor content to your needs. They also help us understand user behavior so we can continually refine our content, navigation, and website performance.
Some cookies are essential for basic website functioning, while others are used for analytics or advertising purposes. You have full control over your cookie settings through your browser. If you prefer not to accept cookies, you may disable them, but please note that certain features of the website may not function as intended without them.
3. Use of Google AdSense
We use Google AdSense to display advertisements that help support the operation of PrayerVest.com. Google may use cookies, including the DART cookie, to show ads based on your browsing history across this and other websites. This allows Google to deliver ads that are more relevant to your interests.
The information collected through AdSense includes non-identifiable data such as browsing behavior, interaction with ads, and device activity. Google does not share any personally identifiable information with us. If you prefer not to receive personalized ads, you can opt out at any time by visiting Google’s Ads Settings page. Google’s advertising policies and data practices can be reviewed on their official site.
4. Use of Google Analytics
To better understand how visitors interact with PrayerVest.com, we use Google Analytics, a widely trusted analytics service provided by Google. Google Analytics collects anonymous data that helps us analyze traffic patterns, identify popular pages, and understand how users navigate the website. This information includes device type, browser, location (city-level), session duration, click behavior, and the referring website.
We use this data solely for improving the performance, speed, and content structure of the website. No information collected through Google Analytics identifies you personally. If you prefer not to be tracked, Google provides a browser add-on that allows you to opt out of analytics tracking.
5. How We Use Your Information
The information we collect is used to enhance your experience and maintain the smooth operation of PrayerVest.com. We may use your personal information to respond to messages, fulfill prayer requests, send newsletters, deliver updates, or provide support when you reach out to us. Non-personal data is used to monitor website performance, optimize content, enhance navigation, and detect or prevent potential security issues.
We may also use certain information to improve our advertising accuracy, analyze site trends, troubleshoot technical errors, and refine the overall design and content strategy of the website. At no point do we sell or rent your personal information to any third-party organization.
6. Third-Party Links
PrayerVest.com contains links to external websites, resources, and Christian organizations that may be useful for our readers. However, we do not have control over these third-party sites, and we cannot be responsible for their privacy practices, content, or security measures. We encourage you to review the privacy policies of any external websites you choose to visit to ensure your information is handled appropriately.
7. Data Protection & Security
Protecting your information is a responsibility we take seriously. We implement reasonable security measures—both technical and procedural—to guard your data against unauthorized access, loss, misuse, or alteration. While we strive to maintain a secure environment, no method of online transmission is completely foolproof. Therefore, although we make every effort to safeguard your information, we cannot guarantee absolute security.
You are encouraged to take additional steps on your part, such as using secure networks, keeping your devices updated, and avoiding sharing sensitive personal information unnecessarily.
8. Children’s Privacy
We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under the age of 13. PrayerVest.com is intended for general audiences seeking prayer support, devotionals, and Bible-based content. If you believe that a child has submitted personal information on our website, please contact us immediately so we can remove it promptly and take appropriate action.
9. Your Data Rights
Depending on your local laws and regulations (such as GDPR in the European Union or other regional privacy laws), you may have the right to access, update, modify, or request deletion of your personal information. You may also withdraw consent for email updates, opt out of data collection tools, or ask for clarification regarding how your information is being used.
