We collect personal information through the use of cookies and from the information that you send to us when you:
* Visit our website.

* Join our email newsletter.
We also monitor who uses our website. For example, we may collect information about you like the type of internet browser you use, the website from which you have come to ours and your IP address (the unique address which identifies your computer on the internet). This all lets us improve our website.
Our Privacy promise
We know how important it is to keep your personal information safe and secure online. Any information that we collect from you is held legally and we will endeavor to take all reasonable steps to protect your personal information.
In order to serve you most efficiently, reputable third-party payment processing parties such as Sparco and other distribution institutions handle our credit card transactions and payment fulfillment. They receive the information needed to verify and authorize your payment card and to process your order. All such organizations are under strict obligation to keep your personal information private.
SECURITY
Account security
You are responsible for your account security, password and any activities on it. We are not responsible for anything that may happen if you do not protect your password or account.
Site Security
Our website uses the highest level of security available for online shopping. Any personal information that you send is securely encrypted by Secure Sockets Layer (SSL). In other words, the SSL mixes-up your data and stops it from being taken by anyone else.
How to check that you are in a secure area.
Our Checkout is one example of a secure area. There are actually two ways that you can check that a website has been encrypted and that it is safe for you to continue. In the “www” address bar, you will notice that:
* a padlock icon right before the website address.
* our website address, “https://www.lcsda.org/” will always be displayed with the “https.” The “s” on the “http” signifies the encryption on our website.
Phishing scams
Phishing scams try and trick you into giving your personal or sensitive information to a fake person. – Usually by an email or phone call from someone pretending to be from a real company.
NEVER share your personal information with anyone who calls and says that they are from LCSDA. If we need to get in contact, our LCSDA Clerk, Pastor or relevant department will get in touch with you.

You have the right to ask for access to the personal data which we may hold or process about you. You also have the right to ask us to correct any mistakes in your data.
Right to Prevent Marketing
