Powerhouse Church of God in Christ ("Powerhouse COGIC," "we," "us," or "our") is committed to protecting the privacy and personal information of our members, visitors, and all who use our digital ministry app.

This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and the safeguards we have in place to protect it. By using this app, you agree to the practices described in this policy.

• To manage church membership records and communications.
• To facilitate and coordinate prayer requests within the prayer team.
• To communicate important church news, events, and announcements.
• To improve our digital services and ministry tools.

• Private prayer requests are visible only to the authorized Prayer Team and church administrators.
• All members of the prayer team are bound by a confidentiality commitment and church covenant.
• Prayer request information is never shared outside of Powerhouse COGIC or used for any purpose other than prayer and pastoral follow-up.

We implement reasonable safeguards to protect your information:

• Role-based access controls ensure each staff member sees only the data relevant to their ministry.
• Secure login is required for all staff portal access.
