Privacy Policy
Effective date: November 14, 2026
Missions Websites (“we,” “us”) builds and hosts websites for missionaries, ministries, churches and nonprofits. This policy explains what information we collect, why we collect it, who we share it with and the choices you have.
It covers missionswebsites.com, our client portal at portal.missionswebsites.com, our affiliate program at partners.missionswebsites.com, our emails, and the services we provide to clients. It does not cover the websites we build for clients. Each of those sites has its own privacy policy (see “Websites we build for clients” below).

Information collected automatically
When you visit our site, we and our tools collect your IP address, browser and device type, the pages you view, the site that sent you, and actions like clicking a button or starting a checkout. Most of this is collected with cookies, explained below.
Information from other sources
- Affiliates: if a partner referred you, our affiliate tool tells us which partner it was.
- Advertising platforms: Meta and Google may tell us that someone clicked one of our ads, usually in summary form.
- Public sources: we may collect publicly listed contact details of missionaries, ministry leaders and mission agency staff, for example from agency directories and ministry websites, to tell them about our services.
How we use your information
- Build your sample website and, if you sign up, your full website.
- Process payments, send invoices and manage your subscription.
- Answer your questions and provide support.
- Send you updates about your project and account.
- Tell you about our services, including occasional emails to people we found through public sources. You can opt out anytime.

- Prevent spam, fraud and security problems, and meet legal and tax requirements.
We do not sell your personal information for money. We do let Meta and Google collect information through cookies on our site for advertising. Some US state laws call this “sharing” or “targeted advertising.” See the next section for how to opt out.
Cookies, analytics and advertising
Cookies are small files your browser stores. We use them to run checkout and login, count visits, measure our ads and track affiliate referrals.

Do Not Track: Our site does not currently respond to browser Do Not Track signals. The third-party tools above may still collect information as described. You can use the opt-out links above to limit it.
Who we share information with
We share information only with the companies that help us run our business, and only what they need to do their job.
| Company | What they do for us |
|---|---|
| Stripe | Card payments, subscriptions and the billing portal |
| PayPal | Optional payment method at checkout |

| Dropbox | Receiving files you upload for your website |
| Emailit | Sending emails from client websites |
We may also share information if the law requires it, to protect our rights or someone’s safety, or as part of a sale or merger of our business. If that happens, this policy still applies to your information.
Payments: Stripe and PayPal handle your card and bank details under their own privacy policies. We only see things like your name, email, the last four digits of your card and your payment history.
Websites we build for clients
We host and maintain websites for missionaries, ministries, churches and nonprofits. Those sites may collect information from their own visitors, such as email sign-ups, contact form messages and prayer letter subscriber lists, including lists we import from tools like Mailchimp.
That information belongs to our client. We store and process it only to run their website and send their emails, as they direct us. We do not use our clients’ supporter lists to market our own services, and we never sell them.
Every prayer letter or newsletter sent through a client’s website includes an unsubscribe link. If you’re on a client’s list and have a question about your information, please contact that missionary or ministry. You can also email us and we’ll pass your request along.
Emails about our services
We sometimes email missionaries, ministry leaders and mission agency staff whose contact details are publicly listed, to tell them about our services. Every email shows our mailing address and gives you a simple way to opt out. Reply “unsubscribe” or email hello@missionswebsites.com and we will not email you again.
How long we keep information
We keep client information for as long as you are a client, and afterward for as long as needed for tax, accounting and legal records. Contact form messages and outreach contacts are kept until they are no longer useful or you ask us to delete them. Analytics and advertising data is kept according to the settings of Google and Meta.
How we protect information
We use secure (HTTPS) connections, reputable hosting and payment providers, and limited access to client accounts. No system is perfectly secure, so we can’t guarantee absolute security.
Your choices and rights
You can ask us to:
- Tell you what personal information we have about you and send you a copy.
- Correct it.
- Delete it, unless we need to keep it for legal, tax or security reasons.
- Stop sending you marketing emails.
- Stop using your information for targeted advertising (also see the opt-out links above).
Depending on where you live, including California, other US states, the EU and the UK, you may have additional rights under local law. To make a request, email hello@missionswebsites.com. We may need to confirm your identity first, and we will respond within 30 days. We will not treat you differently for using your rights.
Children
Our site and services are meant for adults running ministries, churches and nonprofits. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has sent us information, contact us and we will delete it.
Where information is stored
We are a US company, and our main service providers store data in the United States and other countries. Our team may access information from outside the United States. By using our site or services, you understand your information may be processed in these places.
Changes to this policy
We may update this policy as our services or the law change. We will post the new version here with a new effective date. If the changes are significant, we will let clients know by email.
