We use affiliated service providers to help us process donations and run our nonprofit organization
subject to strict confidentiality agreements. These companies are authorized to use your personal
information only as necessary to provide these donations to us.
We will disclose data if we believe in good faith such disclosure is necessary (1) to comply with
relevant laws or to respond to subpoenas or warrants or legal process served on us (though we
reserve the right to take action on behalf of our users to defend their right to anonymity when we
believe there is a legitimate basis to do so); (2) when we believe disclosure is necessary or
appropriate to prevent physical harm or financial loss or in connection with an investigation of
suspected or actual illegal activity; (3) as we otherwise deem necessary and is permitted by
applicable laws to protect and defend the rights or property of us, our supporters, or third parties; or

Cookies are small files that a site or its service provider transfers to your computers hard drive
through your Web browser (if you allow) that enables the sites or service providers systems to
recognize your browser and capture and remember certain information.
We use cookies for many purposes. We use cookies to help us remember and process donations
and compile aggregate data about site traffic and site interaction so that we can offer better site
experiences and tools in the future. We may contract with third-party service providers to assist us in
better understanding our site visitors. These service providers are not permitted to use the
information collected on our behalf except to help us conduct and improve our business.

Disclosure of Information to Outside Parties
We do not sell, trade, or otherwise transfer to outside parties your personally identifiable information
other than to those entities for which you have provided consent. This does not include trusted third
parties who assist us in operating our website, conducting our ministry, or fulfilling our donations
from you, so long as those parties agree to keep this information confidential. We may also release
your information when we believe release is appropriate to comply with the law, enforce our site
Greater Things Ministries Privacy Policy
policies, or protect ours or other’s rights, property, or safety. However, non-personally identifiable
visitor information may be provided to other parties for marketing, communication or other uses.

carefully when you visit those affiliated sites.
When using third-party vendors or agents to which Greater Things Ministries intends to transfer
personal data, Greater Things Ministries shall perform adequate due diligence to help ensure the
security of such information. However, Greater Things Ministries will not be liable if it can prove that
it is not responsible for the event that caused damage and instead another party is responsible for
the event that caused the damage.
