You may unsubscribe from promotional emails by using the unsubscribe link in the email. We may retain limited information necessary to honor your unsubscribe request.
Even after you unsubscribe from promotional communications, we may send nonpromotional messages when reasonably necessary, such as donation receipts, responses to inquiries, security notices, or legally required communications.
By providing your email address, you agree to receive electronic communications from us, including newsletters (if subscribed), donation receipts, policy updates, and other operational or transactional messages. These communications satisfy any requirement that such communications be in writing, to the extent permitted by applicable law.

These providers may use information only as permitted by their agreements with us and applicable law.

- Protect the rights, safety, property, or integrity of The Covenant Project, our visitors, or others;
- Investigate fraud, abuse, security incidents, or violations of our policies;

Affiliates
The Covenant Project is a program of Liberty & Light, which operates multiple charitable programs and initiatives, including under other names. We may share information collected through the Site with Liberty & Light and its other current and future affiliated programs and initiatives, for purposes consistent with this Privacy Policy, including to inform you about opportunities across Liberty & Light’s programs.
Organizational Changes
If The Covenant Project is involved in a reorganization, transfer of programs or assets, merger, consolidation, or similar organizational change, information may be transferred as permitted by law and subject to appropriate protections.
At Your Direction
We may disclose information when you request or authorize us to do so.
6. Sale and Targeted Advertising
The Covenant Project does not currently sell personal information for monetary consideration.
We also do not currently share personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising or permit third parties to use our subscriber list for their own independent marketing purposes.
If these practices change, we will update this Privacy Policy and provide any legally required notices and choices before implementing the change.
7. Donations and Payments
The Covenant Project accepts donations through a PCI-certified payment processor.
The payment processor may collect payment-card or financial information directly from you under its own privacy policy. The Covenant Project may receive transaction details such as your name, contact information, donation amount, transaction date, payment status, and limited payment-method information. We generally do not intend to receive or store complete payment-card numbers.
We may retain donation and transaction records as necessary for receipts, accounting, audits, fraud prevention, donor services, and legal or regulatory requirements.
8. Data Retention
We retain personal information for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy, including to provide requested services, maintain organizational and financial records, comply with law, resolve disputes, and enforce agreements.
Our intended general retention approach is:
- Newsletter and subscriber information: while the subscription remains active;
- Unsubscribe or suppression information: as necessary to honor communication preferences;
- General inquiries and correspondence: ordinarily for up to 24 months after the matter is resolved, unless longer retention is appropriate;
- Donation and financial records: ordinarily for approximately seven years or another period required by law or approved record-retention policy;
- Security and technical logs: for a limited period appropriate to operational and security needs;
- Legal, compliance, or dispute records: for as long as reasonably necessary.
We may delete information earlier when it is no longer needed. We may retain aggregated, deidentified, archival, or backup information when legally permitted.
9. Your Choices and Privacy Requests
Depending on your location and applicable law, you may have the right to request that we:
- Confirm whether we process personal information about you;
- Provide access to certain personal information;
- Correct inaccurate personal information;
- Delete certain personal information;
- Provide a portable copy of certain information;
- Stop or restrict certain processing;
- Honor an opt-out relating to sale or targeted advertising;
- Withdraw consent where processing is based on consent;
- Review an adverse decision concerning a privacy request.
You may submit a request by contacting us at:
Email: support@thecovenantproject.org
Mail: The Covenant Project
5513 West 11000 North, Box 203
Highland, Utah 84003
Please describe the request and provide enough information for us to identify the relevant records. We may need to verify your identity before completing a request. An authorized agent may submit a request where permitted by law, but we may require proof of authorization.
We will respond to a verified request within a reasonable time, generally no later than forty-five (45) days after receipt. If we need more time, we will notify you of the reason and the extension period. If we decline a request in whole or in part, we will explain the reason and, where applicable, how to appeal by contacting us at [appeals@thecovenantproject.org] with the subject line “Privacy Appeal.” We will respond to an appeal within forty-five (45) days.
We will not discriminate against you for exercising an applicable privacy right.
Some requests may be denied or limited where an exception applies, including when information must be retained for legal, security, accounting, recordkeeping, free-expression, or other lawful purposes.
10. Children’s Privacy
The Site is a general-audience, family-friendly website. It is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information online from children under 13 without legally required parental consent.
Children under 13 should not submit personal information through the Site. If you believe a child under 13 has provided personal information, contact us so that we can investigate and take appropriate action.
Visitors under 18 should involve a parent or legal guardian before making a donation, registering for an event, or submitting personal material.
11. Information Security
We use reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational safeguards designed to protect information under our control.
No website, transmission method, or storage system is completely secure. We therefore cannot guarantee that information will never be accessed, disclosed, altered, lost, or destroyed without authorization.
12. Third-Party Websites and Embedded Content
The Site may link to or display content from other organizations, media partners, social platforms, video providers, payment processors, or other third parties.
Those third parties operate under their own terms and privacy practices. This Privacy Policy does not govern their collection or use of information. We encourage you to review their privacy notices before providing information or using their services.
A link, reference, or embedded item does not necessarily mean that The Covenant Project controls or endorses every statement, product, service, or privacy practice of the third party.
13. International Visitors
The Covenant Project is based in the United States, and information collected through the Site may be processed and stored in the United States or other countries where our service providers operate.
Privacy protections in those locations may differ from those in your jurisdiction. Where required by applicable law, we will use appropriate safeguards for international transfers and provide applicable privacy rights.
The Site is presently intended primarily for a United States audience and is not intentionally directed to residents of another country unless expressly stated.
14. Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy as our Site, services, vendors, or legal obligations change.
When we make changes, we will post the revised version and update the “Last Updated” date. We may provide additional notice when changes are material or when required by law.
Your continued use of the Site after an updated Privacy Policy becomes effective is subject to the revised policy, except where additional consent is legally required.
