Keep the following in mind when working with a local attorney to draft an online privacy policy for your ministry:
Several states have laws that require privacy policies be included on a website. Be sure your policy follows all laws that apply to your situation. The National Conference of State Legislatures provides a helpful resource on state laws related to Internet privacy that can help you determine the laws that apply in your state.
If all or part of your ministry’s website is directed to children under 13, the Child Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA) likely applies. COPPA requires website owners to obtain parental consent before collecting information about children under 13, and include special provisions to the website’s privacy policy.
*Important information: Brotherhood Mutual is pleased to provide Legal Assist as a complimentary resource. The services we offer through Legal Assist are intended to provide general legal information to our current and prospective policyholders.
The information we provide is intended to be helpful, but it does not constitute legal advice and is not a substitute for the advice from a licensed attorney in your area. Accordingly, no attorney/client relationship is created through this process, and no legal advice will be provided. We strongly encourage you to regularly consult with a local attorney as part of your risk management program.
Thank you for your interest in Brotherhood Mutual. We appreciate the opportunity to provide your church or other ministry with an insurance quote and will reply to your request as soon as possible.
