6. Sharing of Personal Information
Redemption Hills Church respects the privacy of its members, visitors, and subscribers. We do not sell, rent, or share your personal information with third parties for their independent marketing or promotional purposes.

We retain personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary to fulfill the purposes described in this policy, maintain appropriate consent and opt-out records, and meet applicable legal or regulatory obligations.
Although we take reasonable precautions, no method of electronic storage or transmission can be guaranteed to be completely secure.

Important recommendations before publishing

• Add your actual contact information and link this policy wherever people sign up for emails or text messages.
• Use a separate, unchecked SMS consent checkbox on signup forms when appropriate, with clear disclosure of message frequency, potential message and data rates, and STOP/HELP instructions. Email consent should be separate from SMS consent.
• Keep opt-in records. Retain evidence of when and how a person agreed to receive text messages, along with opt-out records.
• Verify your service providers' practices. Your texting platform and other vendors should support your promise not to share mobile information or SMS consent for marketing purposes.
• Have the final policy reviewed for compliance with applicable federal and Colorado privacy and messaging laws, as well as the requirements of your messaging provider and mobile carriers.
