Site Information
Privacy and Data Use
FCME understands the importance of protecting your privacy. We seek to collect only the information necessary to operate this website effectively, respond to your enquiries, and administer approved events. Our work serves Christian ministries among the Fulbe, and we handle all shared data with this commitment in mind.
Information We May Collect
FCME may collect basic contact details, such as names and email addresses, along with the content of any enquiries sent through the site. We also record limited technical data, including IP addresses and device information, to ensure site functionality and security. Additionally, we collect event-related information that visitors choose to provide when registering for approved gatherings.
We do not seek, and visitors should not share, sensitive ministry details or highly personal information through these public forms. Our focus is solely on the data necessary to facilitate connection and ministry administrative needs among the Fulbe.
How We Use Information
We use information exclusively to operate this website, respond to your specific enquiries, and manage approved ministry events. This data helps us maintain site security and improve the user experience for those serving among the Fulbe. Your information is not sold, rented, or utilized for unrelated marketing purposes.
Wix and Service-Provider Processing
The FCME website is hosted on the Wix platform. As such, your data may be processed and stored through Wix’s secure servers and databases on our behalf. Additionally, we may use other trusted service providers to assist with data management, all operating under their own established privacy and security practices to ensure your information is handled with care.
Retention and deletion
FCME keeps personal information only as long as needed for the purpose explained at collection, required administration, consent records, security or applicable obligations. Access is restricted to authorized roles. Event-only information will be reviewed after the event and deleted or anonymized according to the approved retention schedule. People who separately request future FCME information may have minimal contact and consent evidence retained until they withdraw that choice.
Cookies and Analytics
FCME may use cookies and analytics tools to understand how visitors interact with the site, helping us improve our services and user experience. You can manage your cookie preferences through your browser settings to control how this information is collected and stored.
Safe Use of Public Forms
We encourage the safe and responsible use of any public or group communication features on this site. Please avoid sharing sensitive personal details or confidential ministry information in any space that may be visible to others. For sharing high-risk data or strategic details, we invite you to connect with us through established secure channels instead of public-facing web forms.
Review or Removal Requests
If you would like to request a review, correction, or removal of any information or content associated with your interactions with us, please contact FCME. You can reach out through our Connect page or by emailing us directly at FCME.Admin@gmail.com. We aim to process these requests promptly in accordance with our data management commitment.
Accessibility
FCME aims to make this website usable across devices, connection speeds and access needs. We work toward WCAG 2.2 Level AA and review keyboard access, headings, link purpose, contrast, text alternatives, forms, error messages, resizing and mobile reflow.
If you encounter an accessibility barrier, use the Connect form and choose “Accessibility.” Please describe the page and the barrier without sending unnecessary personal or medical information.
Safeguarding and confidentiality
FCME seeks to communicate in ways that respect dignity, safety, confidentiality and informed consent. Please do not submit sensitive ministry, believer, location, security, persecution or confidential strategy information through public forms.
Names, organizations, photographs, quotations and specific locations will be published only when there is a clear public purpose and the required permission, accuracy and security review. FCME may withhold, revise or remove material when public benefit does not clearly outweigh consent, security, safeguarding or reputational risk.
To raise a safeguarding, confidentiality or urgent removal concern, use the Connect form and choose “Safeguarding/confidentiality” or “Privacy/data.” Do not include sensitive details in the first message.
