Privacy Policy

Effective Date: October 15, 2026

INTRODUCTION

This Privacy Policy explains how Ordinary Man Ministries Institute, an Oklahoma not-for-profit corporation doing business as Ordinary Man Ministries and Ordinary Man Press ("we," "us," "our"), collects, uses, and protects information when you visit OrdinaryManMinistries.com (the "Site").

 

We take the trust you place in us seriously. We collect only what we need to serve you and carry out our ministry, and we never sell your information.

INFORMATION WE COLLECT

Information You Give Us

When you fill out a form on this Site, such as a contact form, ministry inquiry, or email signup, we collect the information you choose to provide. This may include your name, email address, phone number, church or organization, and the content of your message.

Prayer Requests and Personal Messages

If you share a prayer request or personal situation with us, we treat it with care and confidentiality. We will not publish or share it without your permission.

Donations

Donations are processed securely by a third-party payment processor [Wix Payments / PayPal / Stripe — confirm]. We receive your name, email, donation amount, and billing details needed for a receipt. We do not see or store your full card or bank account numbers

Information Collected Automatically

When you visit the Site, our website platform (Wix) and analytics tools automatically collect general information such as pages visited, time spent on the Site, browser and device type, referring website, and approximate location. This is done through cookies and similar technologies.

Advertising and the Meta Pixel

We use the Meta Pixel, a tool provided by Meta Platforms (Facebook and Instagram), to measure how well our ads work and to show our message to people who may be interested. The Meta Pixel may collect information about your visit and connect it with your Meta account according to Meta's own privacy policy.

HOW WE USE INFORMATION

- Understand how visitors use the Site and improve it

- Measure and improve our outreach and advertising

What We Never Do

We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information to anyone, for any reason.

HOW WE SHARE INFORMATION

Trusted Service Providers

We share information only with the service providers that help us run the Site and ministry, such as Wix (website hosting), our payment processor, our email service [Wix / Substack — confirm], and Meta (advertising measurement). They may use your information only to provide services to us or as described in their own privacy policies

Legal Requirements

We may disclose information if required by law, or to protect the rights, safety, or property of our ministry, our visitors, or others.

OTHER IMPORTANT INFORMATION

Children's Privacy

This Site is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from them. If you believe a child under 13 has given us personal information, contact us and we will delete it.

Data Security

We use reasonable safeguards to protect your information, and our website and payment providers use industry-standard security. No method of transmission over the Internet is 100% secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security.
