SteppingStonesMinistry.org and Your Privacy
At Stepping Stones we respect your right to privacy and we understand that, as
a visitor to steppingstonesministry.org, you prefer to control your own personal information and preferences. For this reason, we may ask you to register or to
provide personal information and preferences when you visit certain areas of steppingstonesministry.org, download documentation, or request information.
We will guard the personal information you share with us to ensure the content, services, and advertising that we provide on steppingstonesministry.org are always tailored to your current, designated preferences.
When you provide Stepping Stones with your name (or alias), e-mail address, mailing address, or telephone number, and you do not 'opt out,' Stepping Stones and Stepping Stones representatives and affiliates may use the provided information to alert you to updated information, seminars, new services, and other Stepping Stones information. Representatives and affiliates may include authorized church plant pastors or partners. Beyond its representatives and affiliates, Stepping Stones does not offer or allow the selling of any user-provided information to third parties.
Stepping Stones respects the rights users give us when opting to receive e-mail communications and enforces internal policies to preserve those rights. It is our objective to retain the long-term ability to continue to communicate with our users.
If you do not want Stepping Stones or Stepping Stones representatives to contact you, you may "opt out" of this preference at any time, whether you're online or contacting Stepping Stones directly. As part of your preference flexibility, you'll always have the option to opt back in and have Stepping Stones contact you based on your previous or new preferences. For instructions, please see the section "Contact Us," below.
If you choose not to register or provide personal information, you can still visit most Stepping Stones websites; however, you will not have access to areas that require personal identification.
Personal information that you post to online forums is accessible by other forum participants.
If a user elects to use our “Tell A Friend” application for forwarding a Stepping Stones e-mail to their friend or informing a friend about our website, we ask them for the friend's name and e-mail address. Stepping Stones will automatically send the friend the specified e-mail or the specified website information. Stepping Stones will not use the friend's information to contact them in the future.
