Cookies and similar browser storage are small pieces of data a website saves on your device. This page explains what our site stores, what outside services load on it, and how you can control them.
We keep this simple: our site does not use advertising or cross-site tracking cookies.
What our site stores
| What | Why | How long |
|---|---|---|
| Visit statistics session ID | A random ID saved in your browser's local storage by our website platform, so a single visit is counted once in our page-view statistics. It isn't linked to your name or contact details. | About 30 minutes after your last page view |
| Staff sign-in | Keeps Reconciliation Ministries staff signed in to the staff dashboard. It's only created if a staff member signs in, never for public visitors. | Until sign-out, up to 12 hours |
The visit statistics record the page you viewed, the site that linked you here, your browser type and language, and an approximate country based on your time zone. They don't record your IP address. See our Privacy Policy for more.
Outside services on our pages
A few pages load content from other companies. When they do, those companies receive basic technical information like your IP address and browser type, and they may set their own cookies under their own policies:
- Google Maps, the map embedded on our Contact page. Google may set cookies when the map loads.
- Adobe Fonts and Google Fonts, which deliver the typefaces used across the site.
Sites we link to
When you click through to Qgiv to give, or to our Facebook or Instagram pages, you leave our site. Those sites use their own cookies, described in their own policies.
How to control cookies
- Most browsers let you block or delete cookies and site data in their privacy settings. Blocking them won't stop our site from working, though the embedded map may not load.
- A private or incognito window clears this data when you close it.
- Browser extensions and built-in tracking protection can block outside services such as embedded maps.
Changes to this policy
If we add services that store data on your device, we'll update this page and the date at the top.
