Effective Date: January 1, 2024
Last Updated: July 25, 2026

The Praying Wife, Inc. (“The Praying Wife,” “we,” “our,” or “us”) values your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information when you visit https://theprayingwife.com or use any related services, forms, applications, community programs, email communications, SMS messaging programs, or Facebook-integrated applications.

By using our website or services, you acknowledge this Privacy Policy. Consent to receive email or SMS communications is collected separately where required and is not a condition of membership, participation, donation, or purchase.

1. Information We Collect

We may collect personal information in the following ways:

Information you provide: When you register for membership, join a community group, sign up for an event, subscribe to communications, submit a form, make a donation, or communicate with us, we may collect information such as your name, email address, telephone number, country, location, prayer requests, interests, and other information you voluntarily provide.

SMS consent information: When you opt in to receive text messages, we may collect your mobile telephone number, the date and time of consent, the form or method through which consent was provided, and your communication preferences.

Automatically collected information: We may collect information through cookies and similar technologies, including your IP address, browser type, device information, pages visited, referral source, and browsing activity.

Third-party integrations: If you log in or interact with our services through Facebook or another third-party platform, we may collect basic account or profile information that you authorize the platform to provide.

2. How We Use Your Information

We may use your information to:

• Provide, administer, and improve our website, programs, communities, and services
• Process membership and community registrations
• Respond to inquiries, prayer requests, or support requests
• Send newsletters, devotionals, community announcements, or ministry resources when you have requested or consented to receive them
• Send SMS messages to individuals who have separately opted in
• Provide WhatsApp community invitations
• Send reminders for prayer meetings, Bible studies, group meetings, events, challenges, and other ministry activities
• Notify subscribers about podcast episodes, devotional resources, and ministry updates
• Maintain records of communication consent and opt-out requests
• Analyze website and program usage
• Protect the security and integrity of our services
• Comply with legal, regulatory, and carrier requirements

We do not sell or rent personal information.

3. SMS Messaging Program

The Praying Wife, Inc. may offer an optional SMS messaging program.

Individuals who expressly opt in may receive recurring informational and promotional text messages, including:

• WhatsApp community invitation links
• Prayer meeting and Bible study reminders
• Virtual or in-person meeting updates
• Ministry event and challenge notifications
• Podcast episode announcements
• Devotional resources
• Community and ministry updates

Message frequency varies but is generally approximately 2–6 messages per month. Additional messages may be sent in connection with scheduled events, challenges, or special activities.

Message and data rates may apply depending on the recipient’s wireless carrier and service plan.

Consent to receive SMS messages is not a condition of membership, participation, donation, or purchase.

Recipients may opt out at any time by replying STOP. After opting out, the recipient may receive one final confirmation message. Recipients may reply HELP for assistance or contact us at support@theprayingwife.com.

We maintain records of SMS consent where reasonably possible, including the telephone number, submission date, and method through which consent was provided.

Mobile information, SMS opt-in information, and text messaging consent will not be sold, rented, or shared with third parties or affiliates for their own marketing or promotional purposes.

We may provide mobile information to service providers that assist us with operating and delivering our SMS program. These providers may use the information only to perform services for The Praying Wife, Inc. and not for their own marketing purposes.

Wireless carriers are not responsible for delayed or undelivered messages.

The FCC permits recipients to revoke prior consent through reasonable means, so your process should honor STOP as well as other clear requests asking you not to text again.

4. Canadian Recipients

We may send messages to recipients in Canada who have provided appropriate consent.

For messages subject to Canada’s Anti-Spam Legislation, we will seek to:

• Obtain the required consent before sending messages
• Clearly identify The Praying Wife, Inc. as the sender
• Provide contact information
• Include a functioning unsubscribe method
• Maintain reasonable records of consent

Canadian anti-spam guidance identifies consent, sender identification, and an unsubscribe mechanism as core requirements for commercial electronic messages.

5. Facebook Data Policy Compliance

If you use our services through Facebook:

• We collect only the information you authorize Facebook to provide, such as your public profile information or email address.
• We use this information to deliver features within our applications or communities.
• We do not sell this information or share it with third parties for their own marketing purposes.
• We may provide limited information to service providers solely as necessary to operate our services.

6. User Data Deletion Requests

You may request deletion of Facebook-related user data or other personal information we have collected.

Email: support@theprayingwife.com
Subject: Facebook/User Data Deletion Request

Please include your full name, email address, and, when applicable, your Facebook User ID.

We will process verified deletion requests within a reasonable period and generally within seven business days, unless we must retain certain information for legal, fraud-prevention, security, consent-recordkeeping, or regulatory purposes.

7. Cookies and Tracking Technologies

We use cookies and similar technologies to:

• Recognize your browser or device

You may manage or disable cookies through your browser settings. Disabling certain cookies may affect website functionality.

8. Service Providers and Third-Party Services

We may use third-party service providers to help us operate our website and programs, process forms or donations, analyze website usage, send emails or text messages, manage community communications, host data, or provide technical support.

These providers may receive only the information reasonably necessary to perform services on our behalf. They are not authorized to use mobile information or SMS consent information for their own marketing purposes.

Examples may include analytics platforms, email providers, SMS messaging providers, payment processors, hosting companies, Facebook integrations, and community-management tools.

Third-party providers may maintain their own privacy policies and security practices.

Depending on your location and applicable law, you may have the right to:

• Request access to personal information we maintain about you
• Correct inaccurate information
• Request deletion of your information
• Object to or restrict certain processing

Withdrawing consent does not affect processing that occurred before consent was withdrawn.

10. Data Retention

We retain personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary to provide our services, fulfill the purposes described in this policy, maintain consent and opt-out records, resolve disputes, enforce agreements, and meet applicable legal or regulatory obligations.

We may retain SMS opt-out records to ensure that individuals who unsubscribe are not unintentionally added back to our messaging list.

11. Data Security

We use reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational safeguards intended to protect personal information.

However, no website, electronic transmission, or storage system can be guaranteed to be completely secure. Therefore, we cannot guarantee absolute security.

Parents or guardians who believe a child has submitted personal information may contact us to request its deletion.
