Barnabas Aid is committed to respecting your privacy and ensuring the personal information you have entrusted to us is processed in accordance with current regulations. We will never pass on your details to another charity or organization.
We collect personal information directly from you when you make the decision to donate or sign up to receive our mailings. We also periodically run petitions for people to sign. If you signed a petition, the information you have opted in to provide will be used to keep you informed of Barnabas Aid’s wider work, unless you have opted out of receiving these updates from us. Here is the personal information we collect:
We will never “cold call” our supporters. We only use your telephone number if we need to follow up on a donation issue or other query, or if there is an issue with an order you have placed with us.
All your information submitted via our website will be transmitted in a secure fashion. We use Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) software, which encrypts any sensitive information you input. For example, if you make a card donation online, the card number and your contact details are encrypted and sent to the appropriate card company.
There are various reasons why we need to collect personal data, including the following:
We try to keep you, with your permission, informed and up to date regarding our work, the issues faced by the persecuted church worldwide and how your support is making an impact. This could include sending you magazines, special appeals, email updates and information for prayer. Your prayers for our work and for our persecuted brothers and sisters are extremely important, so we do not require a donation in response to us sending you this information on a regular basis.
Postal marketing: We send our magazines and postal updates to our supporters unless or until you notify us that you would prefer not to receive this information by postal mail.
Email marketing: We ask you for your email address so that we can keep you more up to date with the current needs around the world. We will keep you informed until you unsubscribe from our email mailing list (which can be done by clicking on the link in the email itself).
Telephone marketing: Unlike many other organizations, we will never cold call you and we will only ever make a note of your telephone number in order to resolve an issue or follow up on a query you have raised.
Barnabas Aid is fully committed to respecting your choice to receive marketing communication. You can update your permission and contact preferences at any time by contacting us at the above address.
Barnabas Aid is a global partner of Barnabas Aid International. Barnabas Aid will only share personal information that is either consented to or necessary to fulfill its obligations with Barnabas Aid International.
Barnabas Aid may also share you your personal information with trusted third parties, such as our printers, where it is necessary to provide products you have requested, such as receiving our magazine by postal mail. In situations like this, we demand the third parties to have written contracts, which obligate them to process your personal information only on our instruction, securely, and in accordance with applicable data protection and privacy laws.
Fundraising is essential for Barnabas Aid to make a difference to the lives of our persecuted and suffering brothers and sisters. We endeavor to be transparent, open, efficient and ethical in the way we raise funds and in the manner in which we contact supporters.
We raise funds from:
We never cold-call people, our supporters, or carry out street collections.
You can contact us at any time to opt out of receiving information from us, and we will stop mailing you as soon as we receive your request. Please note that you may still receive some printed material if the next mailing is already being processed at the time your request is received.
