Privacy Policy

The Journal of Biblical Missiology is committed to respecting your privacy. For your benefit, this page outlines the information we collect on biblicalmissiology.org. By accessing our site, you agree to our privacy policy and terms of use as outlines below.

Personal Information

The Journal of Biblical Missiology only collects personal information if you subscribe to our email list, purchase something, or comment below a post. Personal information collected will be used exclusively within Biblical Missiology and Horizons International to inform you about new articles or events or ministry updates you may be interested in. We will not share your information with outside organizations. You retain the right to unsubscribe from such emails at any time.

For users that register on our website, we also store the personal information they provide in their user profile. All users can see, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (except they cannot change their username). Website administrators can also see and edit that information.

Information Automatically Collected 

To ensure you have an optimal experience visiting our site, biblicalmissiology.org collects information regarding website traffic from our website server logs,  the user, and cookies. We also use Google Analytics, which uses cookies to collect anonymous traffic data, which may include number of visitors to a page, clicks, engagements, length and time of visit, location of device, inbound links, and most-visited pages. We may track this information to ensure that this site may be administered for optimal reader experience. If you wish to opt-out of cookie usage, you may do so using the pop-up bar upon entering the site.

When visitors leave comments on the site we collect the data shown in the comments form, and also the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to help spam detection. If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This is so we can recognize and approve any follow-up comments automatically instead of holding them in a moderation queue. An anonymized string created from your email address (also called a hash) may be provided to the Gravatar service to see if you are using it. The Gravatar service privacy policy is available here: https://automattic.com/privacy/. After approval of your comment, your profile picture is visible to the public in the context of your comment. 

Embedded content from other websites

Articles on this site may include embedded content (e.g. videos, images, articles, etc.). Embedded content from other websites behaves in the exact same way as if the visitor has visited the other website.

These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with that embedded content, including tracking your interaction with the embedded content if you have an account and are logged in to that website.  

Revisions to the Policy

We may revise this policy at any time, with the most recent version reflected on this page. By using biblicalmissiology.org, you agree to our above privacy policy statement. Please reach out to us with questions.
