We handle your information the way we would want ours handled — carefully, respectfully, and only for the reasons we tell you about.
Gathering Israel (“Gathering Israel,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) is an independent 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization based in Utah, United States. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect when you use this website or interact with our outreach—including through ads on TikTok, Meta (Facebook/Instagram), Google, YouTube, and other platforms—how we use it, how long we keep it, and the choices you have.
Gathering Israel is not owned, operated, sponsored, approved, or endorsed by The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Information you share with us is not shared with the Church unless you specifically ask us to help connect you with missionaries or other official Church resources.
We do not request, receive, or otherwise obtain backend access to your social media profiles. If you publicly interact with our social pages, we can view only the same public information any other user can see.
Legal basis (EU/UK users): We process your information on the basis of your consent (for lead forms, SMS, and marketing emails), our legitimate interest in fulfilling our nonprofit mission, and compliance with legal obligations. You may withdraw consent at any time without affecting prior processing.
We do not sell your personal information. We share information only as needed to run the nonprofit and only with parties who are contractually bound to protect it:
We run outreach campaigns on digital advertising platforms including TikTok, Meta (Facebook and Instagram), Google, and YouTube to place faith-promoting content in front of people who may be searching for answers about Jesus Christ. When you interact with one of our lead generation ads, the following applies:
If you provide your mobile phone number through our website forms, advertising lead forms, or other opt-in methods, you are consenting to receive SMS text messages from Gathering Israel in response to your request for contact.
Contact us at support@gatheringisrael.org to exercise any of these rights. We will respond within 30 days.
We use reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards to protect personal information against unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction. No system is perfectly secure, and we cannot guarantee that information transmitted over the internet is invulnerable. If we learn of a security incident affecting your information, we will notify you as required by applicable law.
We retain personal information only as long as we need it for the purposes described in this policy:
You may request deletion of your personal data at any time by contacting support@gatheringisrael.org.
This site is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from them. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us and we will delete it promptly.
Gathering Israel is based in the United States. Our service providers and advertising partners may process your information in the U.S. and other countries. If you are located in a region with data-transfer rules (such as the EU or UK), we rely on appropriate transfer mechanisms—such as Standard Contractual Clauses—where required. By using this site and providing your information, you acknowledge that your data may be transferred to and processed in the United States or other jurisdictions where our providers operate.
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will change the “Last updated” date above and, for material changes, provide a more prominent notice on this site or by email. Your continued use of the site after changes take effect means you accept the updated policy.
