By accessing or using the Congregational Church of Easton website (www.eastonchurch.org), you agree to the terms of this Online Privacy Policy, as outlined below. If you do not agree to these terms, please do not access or use this site.
Collection of Personal Information
When you engage in certain activities on this site, you may be asked to provide information about yourself by filling out and submitting an online form. It is completely optional for you to engage in these activities. If you elect to engage in these activities, however, you may be required to provide personal information, such as your name, mailing address, e-mail address, and other personal identifying information.
We do not sell, trade, rent or otherwise share for marketing purposes your Personal Information with third parties without your consent. However, since outside vendors perform IT services such as e-mail and website hosting for the Congregational Church of Easton, we do share Personal Information with said vendors. Those vendors use your Personal Information only at our direction and in accordance with our Privacy Policy.
The Congregational Church of Easton generally uses Personal Information you provide to us to communicate with you. For example, e-mail addresses are used to create accounts that you can use to comment on blog posts. We can also use e-mail addresses to keep you informed of various church activities that you may be interested in.

The security of your Personal Information is important to us. For that reason, we strive to use commercially acceptable means to protect your Personal Information, such as firewalls. We also recommend that you protect your account by using strong passwords, not disclosing that password to others, and logging out after each time you use this website.
