This notice explains how we collect, use and protect the personal data of our supporters and other contacts.
International Network of Prophetic Centres is a Christian charity, registered in Scotland, No. SC043135, with its registered office at 40 Wellington Street, Glasgow G2 6HJ.
You may also know us by our other ministry names: Christian International Scotland (the Scottish network hub for Christian International Europe, part of the CI Ministries Network) and Glasgow Prophetic Centre, the global brand name and identity that we’ve used for our conferences, events and projects since 2009.
Our main website address is: https://gpcmembers.wpengine.com but we also own and use other domains such as glasgow-prophetic-centre.org.uk, inopc.org.uk, propheticscots.com and prophetic.scot
Those who have joined our mailing list have indicated support for our aims and are categorised as our supporters. They have given us their details and asked to be kept informed by signing up to receive our mailings. Many of our supporters subscribe to receive our regular prophetic words by email and others ask to receive information about events, teaching and other services that we provide.
The information provided to us will include some or all of the following:
• name and title
• address including postcode
• email address
• country they live in (if outside the UK)
We also collect the following information:
• information about our relationship with supporters and those who contact us
• details of our donors and their donation, including amount and frequency (if giving regularly) of donation, and partial bank details (but not sufficient to effect a transaction)
• a telephone number if a supporter provides it
For those who register our events we collect:
For those who apply for Prophetic Check-Ups and other ministry appointments we collect:
For ‘freedom’ ministry (deliverance ministry), ‘deeper healing’ (inner healing), ‘healing’ or prayer counselling appointments we may also request additional background information from clients. This private information is treated in confidence and is stored securely and separately from other contact information, only accessible to those who will be providing the ministry service, and their overseers. We destroy these documents and any notes from ministry sessions within three years of a client’s appointment.
Some of our supporters volunteer to join our ministry or administrative teams, or our regular Sunday family gathering. Our core volunteers and regulars provide us with their details, including their name, title and contact details, as well as other relevant family information.
We use personal information to:
We endeavour to keep personal information up to date. This includes monitoring returned mail to let us know if a person no longer lives at the address we hold for them. We may use public sources to check we do not send communications to the wrong place or person.
Our responsibilities
We endeavour to record every prophetic word that is spoken over an individual, couple, family or group at our Centre. These recordings are shared with the individual and a copy is kept, stored on our internal servers or cloud storage service. Access to these recordings is by administrator password only. We keep copies for:
We take client privacy exceptionally seriously and our volunteer and staff teams abide by strict privacy and confidentiality protocols. The contents and personal details of a private ministry appointment are not shared beyond the team members/leaders present and only for the purposes of debrief with a manager or trainer.
Sometimes we survey our clients or event attendees, in order to inform our decisions and to help us provide a better service. If a client gives express permission then we may share, or use in publicity materials, a personal testimony, story or quote that they report to us, usually with anonymised personal details. We do this for the purpose of giving glory to God, as a testimony of His goodness and to encourage faith in believers and non-believers alike.
We keep personal information secure with appropriate security measures in place to attempt to protect against the loss, misuse, and alteration of personal information.
We use secure server software to encrypt financial and personal information we collect online. However, the transmission of data across the internet is not completely secure. We cannot guarantee that loss, misuse or alteration of data will not occur whilst data is being transferred.
We will not share the personal information we hold with another organisation for their own purposes and we will never sell personal information for any reason whatsoever.
There are a few situations where our legitimate interests involve us using service providers we have contracted with to fulfil specific services for us. For example, administering our mailings to our supporters involves certain functions being provided by service providers who process on our behalf the name and address details on our mailing list. However, we remain in control of our supporters’ information.
We currently use MailChimp to deliver to our supporters the emails they have signed up to receive, including our Lion Bites daily emails. The service also enables us to gather statistics around email opening and clicks using industry standard technologies including gifs to help us monitor and improve our mailings. For more information: (see: https://mailchimp.com/legal/cookies/). MailChimp hosts its data in the US, but it has certified its compliance with the EU-US Privacy Shield Framework.
Donations or purchase made to us through our website are processed by Stripe or GoCardless, through the ChurchSuite platform. In some circumstances donations or payments (including in-person card payments) are processed by PayPal.
Event bookings are managed and payments processed by Eventbrite.
