Privacy Policy

Thank you for visiting PneumaReview.com (“Site”), published and operated by the Pneuma Foundation, a tax-exempt 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization in the United States.

When we use the terms “we,” “us,” or “our,” we refer to Pneuma Foundation and its affiliated ministries (“Our Organization”).

Protecting your privacy is important to us. This Privacy Policy explains what information we may collect when you visit or interact with our websites, how that information may be used, and the choices available to you.

This website operates as an active online publication while maintaining access to previously published material. Information submitted to the Site, including comments and other contributions, may become part of the published content.

By using this Site, you acknowledge and agree to the terms of this Privacy Policy.

Information We Collect

Automatically Collected Information

When you visit the Site, certain information about your visit is automatically logged, as is common with most websites. This may include your Internet Protocol (IP) address, domain name, browser type, device type, access time, and referring website. This information is used in aggregate to understand how visitors use the Site and to improve its performance and content.

Personally Identifiable Information

Personally identifiable information (PII) is information that can be used to identify or contact you, such as your name, mailing address, telephone number, or email address.

We collect PII only when you voluntarily provide it. This may occur when you subscribe to an email newsletter, make a donation, order a publication or subscription, purchase a product or service, participate in a survey, post a comment, enter a contest or promotion, register for an account, or use a feature such as emailing a page.

Providing personal information is optional. You may browse the Site without submitting PII, although certain features or services may not be available if you choose not to provide it.

If you make a donation through the Site, payment information may be processed by a third-party payment provider. We do not store full payment details and rely on those providers to process transactions securely.

Media

If you upload images to the Site, you should avoid uploading images that include embedded location data (EXIF GPS). Visitors to the Site may be able to download and extract such information from images.

How We Use This Information

Information collected in aggregate may be used to understand how visitors use the Site, such as which pages are visited most frequently and how users interact with content. This information may be used to improve the performance, design, and content of the Site. Aggregated information may also be shared with advertisers or partners in a form that does not directly identify individual users.

Personally identifiable information you voluntarily provide may be used to:

  • improve the content and functionality of the Site,
  • communicate with you about updates, services, or resources,
  • provide products, services, or information you have requested,
  • support internal operations, including working with service providers or contractors,
  • administer accounts, subscriptions, or transactions,
  • comply with legal obligations or protect the security and integrity of the Site.

We may disclose personal information when required to do so by law, in response to a valid legal process, or when we believe such disclosure is necessary to protect our rights, investigate misuse of the Site, or ensure the safety of users and the public.

Public Content and User Submissions

If you choose to post comments or submit content to the Site, including articles, letters, or other materials intended for publication, the information you provide may be made public.

Comments and other submitted content are considered part of the published content of the Site and may remain visible alongside articles indefinitely. This includes content submitted under earlier versions of the Site.

Information you choose to share in public areas may be accessible to others, including through search engines. We are not responsible for how others may use information you make publicly available.

If you prefer not to have your information published, please do not submit it. Requests for removal or anonymization of publicly submitted content may be considered on a case-by-case basis.

An anonymized string created from your email address (also called a hash) may be provided to the Gravatar service to determine whether you are using it. The Gravatar service privacy policy is available here: https://automattic.com/privacy/. After approval of your comment, your profile picture may be visible to the public alongside your comment.
