Privacy Policy The Glade Church Last updated: March 2026
We keep it simple.
Your privacy matters to us. This policy explains what information we collect when you visit our website or interact with us online, how we use it, and how we protect it. We don't sell your data. We don't share it for marketing purposes. We collect only what we need to serve you well.

Our website is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe your child has submitted personal information to us, please contact us and we will delete it promptly.
