Privacy Policy

Your privacy matters to us.

Our website address is: https://www.worddefined.com. We are an online ministry and bookstore operated by Dr. Mike Dobbs, offering Bible study resources and publications.

What Personal Data We Collect and Why

Contact Forms

When you submit a contact form on our site, we collect the information you provide, including your name, email address, and message. This information is used solely to respond to your inquiry. We do not use the information submitted through the contact form for marketing purposes.

Purchases

When you make a purchase, we collect information necessary to process the transaction through PayPal. We do not store credit card or payment information on our servers. PayPal handles all payment data securely according to their own privacy policy.

Analytics

We may use analytics services to understand how visitors interact with our site. This data is collected anonymously and is used only to improve the user experience.

Who We Share Your Data With

We do not sell, trade, or otherwise transfer your personally identifiable information to outside parties. This does not include trusted third parties who assist us in operating our website or conducting our business (such as PayPal for payment processing), so long as those parties agree to keep this information confidential.

How Long We Retain Your Data

Contact form submissions are retained for the purpose of responding to inquiries and are not stored indefinitely. Purchase records may be retained for accounting and legal compliance purposes.

What Rights You Have Over Your Data

If you have submitted a contact form or made a purchase on our site, you can request to receive an exported file of the personal data we hold about you. You can also request that we erase any personal data we hold about you, except for data we are obliged to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.

Cookies

Our site may use cookies to maintain your session when using the contact form (CSRF protection). These are necessary for the security and proper functioning of the site. No tracking cookies are set by our site.

Embedded Content

Pages on this site may include embedded content (e.g., YouTube videos). Embedded content from other websites behaves in the exact same way as if you visited the other website directly. These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, and monitor your interaction with that embedded content.
