SMS and Text Messaging Privacy

If you provide your mobile phone number and expressly opt in to receive text messages from Central Baptist Church, we may send recurring informational and promotional SMS or MMS messages related to Central Baptist Church.

Messages may include responses to requests, service times, directions, visit-planning information, prayer follow-up, reminders, schedule changes, invitations to worship services, church events, ministry programs, and community activities.

Mobile information, including mobile phone numbers, SMS opt-in information, and messaging consent, will not be shared, sold, rented, transferred, or provided to third parties or affiliates for marketing or promotional purposes.

Text messaging originator opt-in data and consent will not be shared with any third parties or affiliates for their own marketing or promotional purposes. We may use service providers solely as necessary to support the operation and delivery of our communications, such as telecommunications, messaging, website, email, or technology service providers.

SMS consent is specific to Central Baptist Church and is not transferable to another organization.

Message frequency varies. Message and data rates may apply.

You may opt out of text messages at any time by replying STOP to any message. You may reply HELP for assistance.

Consent to receive text messages is not a condition of attending Central Baptist Church, participating in a ministry or event, making a donation, or receiving church services.

Email Communications

If you provide your email address, Central Baptist Church may use it to respond to your request or to send church-related information for which you have registered or expressed interest.

You may unsubscribe from promotional email communications using the unsubscribe instructions provided in an email or by contacting Central Baptist Church.

Sharing of Personal Information

Central Baptist Church does not sell or rent personal information.

We may disclose limited personal information to trusted service providers when reasonably necessary for them to perform services on our behalf, such as website hosting, registration processing, email delivery, text message delivery, database management, or other technology services. These providers are authorized to use the information only as necessary to provide those services.

Regardless of any other provision of this Privacy Policy, mobile phone numbers, SMS opt-in information, and SMS consent will not be shared with third parties or affiliates for marketing or promotional purposes.

We may also disclose information when required by law, legal process, or when reasonably necessary to protect the rights, safety, or property of Central Baptist Church or others.

Meta and Facebook Lead Forms

Central Baptist Church may collect information through Meta or Facebook lead forms. Information submitted through these forms is used for the purposes described in the form, such as providing information about Central Baptist Church, helping you plan a visit, responding to your request, or communicating with you when you have expressly opted in.

Providing a telephone number through a Meta or Facebook form does not by itself authorize SMS marketing. Where SMS messages are offered, consent must be expressly provided as part of the applicable opt-in process.

Mobile information and SMS consent collected through Meta or Facebook lead forms will not be shared with third parties or affiliates for marketing or promotional purposes.

Cookies and Website Information

Our website may use cookies or similar technologies to support website functionality, understand website usage, and improve the visitor experience. Your browser may allow you to limit or disable cookies.
