Privacy Policy

1. Who We Are

Fay.Church is a free online church directory for Fayetteville, North Carolina, operated by Bosworth Media Group LLC, PO Box 35615, Fayetteville, NC 28303. You can reach us at [email protected] or (910) 888-1871.

2. Information We Collect

We collect only the minimum information necessary to operate the directory:

• Church suggestions: When you submit a church listing suggestion, we collect the information you voluntarily provide (church name, address, contact details, and your name/email if you choose to include them).
• Star ratings: When you rate a church, we store your rating anonymously. We use a browser cookie to prevent duplicate votes — no personal information is tied to your rating.
• Location data: If you use the "Near Me" feature, your browser requests your location. This data is used only in your browser to sort results — it is never transmitted to or stored on our servers.
• Usage analytics: We collect anonymized, aggregate page-view data (pages visited, general location by region, device type) to understand how the directory is used. This data does not identify individual visitors.
• Contact inquiries: If you email or call us, we retain that correspondence to respond to your request.

3. How We Use Your Information

We use the information we collect solely to operate and improve Fay.Church — specifically to review church suggestions, display community ratings, respond to inquiries, and understand how visitors use the site. We do not sell, rent, or share your personal information with third parties for marketing purposes.

4. Cookies

We use a single functional cookie to remember whether you have already rated a particular church, preventing duplicate submissions. This cookie contains no personal information and expires after 365 days. We do not use advertising cookies or third-party tracking cookies.

5. Church Listing Data

Church names, addresses, phone numbers, websites, and other directory information are compiled from publicly available sources. If you represent a church and wish to update, correct, or remove your listing, please contact us at [email protected]. We will respond within 5 business days.

6. Data Retention

Church suggestion submissions are retained for as long as needed to review and act on them, then deleted or incorporated into the directory. Rating data is retained indefinitely in aggregate form. Contact inquiries are retained for up to 2 years.

7. Children's Privacy

Fay.Church is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has submitted personal information through our site, please contact us and we will delete it promptly.

8. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will update the effective date at the top of this page. Continued use of Fay.Church after any changes constitutes your acceptance of the updated policy.
