Margaret Nwakaego Usio Ministries (“the Ministry”, “we”, “us” or “our”) respects your privacy and is committed to handling personal information with care, confidentiality and integrity. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect through margaretusioministries.com, why we collect it, how we use it and the choices available to you.
Who we are
This website is operated by Margaret Nwakaego Usio Ministries in Nigeria. For privacy enquiries, please email contact@margaretusioministries.com.
Information we may collect
We may collect information that you voluntarily provide, including your name, email address and the contents of messages submitted through our Contact Us, Prayer Request, testimony or subscription forms. A prayer request may contain personal, family, health or spiritual information. Please share only the information you are comfortable providing.
When you visit the website, limited technical information may also be collected automatically, such as your IP address, browser type, device information, pages visited and cookie information. This information supports website security, reliable operation and basic performance monitoring.
How we use your information
- To respond to enquiries and prayer requests.
- To send Echoes, devotionals or ministry updates when you have subscribed.
- To process requests relating to ministry resources or products.
- To maintain, protect and improve the website.
- To prevent spam, misuse and security threats.
- To comply with applicable legal obligations.
We process personal information with your consent, where it is necessary to respond to your request, for legitimate ministry and website-operational purposes, or where required by law. You may withdraw consent at any time, although this will not affect processing that took place before withdrawal.
Prayer requests and sensitive information
Prayer requests are treated as private ministry communications. They will not be published as testimonies or shared publicly without the person’s permission. They may be seen only by authorised persons who need the information to respond or pray, unless disclosure is required by law or is reasonably necessary to protect someone from serious harm.
Testimonies
We publish testimonies only after receiving permission. We may shorten, edit or anonymise a testimony to improve clarity and protect privacy. A contributor may request the correction or removal of their published testimony by contacting us. We will take reasonable steps to respond, subject to any copies already shared or cached outside our control.
Email subscriptions
If you subscribe to Echoes or other ministry updates, we use your email address to send the content you requested. You may unsubscribe through the link provided in an email or contact us directly. We do not sell subscriber lists.
Cookies
Cookies are small files stored on your device. The website may use essential cookies for security, forms and site functionality, and may use limited analytics or embedded-content cookies. You can control or delete cookies through your browser settings. Disabling essential cookies may affect how parts of the website work. Further details will be provided in our Cookie Policy.
Embedded content and external links
Pages may include links to or embedded content from services such as YouTube, Facebook and Instagram. These services may collect information or use cookies according to their own privacy policies. When you follow an external link, that provider’s terms and privacy practices apply.
Service providers and data sharing
We may use trusted providers for website hosting, email delivery, mailing-list management, spam prevention, security and technical support. They may process limited information only to provide their services to us. We do not sell or rent personal information. We may disclose information where required by law, to protect legal rights or safety, or in connection with a necessary change in the operation of the Ministry.
Some service providers may process information outside Nigeria. Where this occurs, we take reasonable steps to use providers and safeguards appropriate to applicable data-protection requirements.
How long we keep information
We retain personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purpose for which it was collected, to maintain appropriate ministry records, resolve enquiries, protect the website or meet legal obligations. Subscription information is retained until you unsubscribe or request deletion, subject to limited records needed to honour that request.
Security
We use reasonable organisational and technical measures to protect information from unauthorised access, loss, misuse or disclosure. However, no online system can be guaranteed to be completely secure. Please avoid sending passwords, financial details or other information that is not necessary through our general forms.
Children’s privacy
Our general website forms are not intended for children to submit personal information without the involvement of a parent or guardian. If you believe a child has submitted personal information inappropriately, please contact us so that we can review and, where appropriate, remove it.
Your privacy rights
Subject to applicable law, including the Nigeria Data Protection Act 2023, you may ask whether we hold your personal information and request access, correction, deletion, restriction or objection to certain processing. You may also withdraw consent and request information in a portable form where applicable. To make a request, email contact@margaretusioministries.com. We may need to verify your identity before completing a request.
If you believe your data-protection rights have not been respected, you may also contact the Nigeria Data Protection Commission.
Changes to this policy
We may update this Privacy Policy when the website, our services or legal requirements change. The revised date at the top of this page will show when the policy was last updated.
