Disclosure Policy

Because running a website this size is surprisingly expensive and time-consuming, we do receive income from sources including but not limited to paid advertising, sponsorships, affiliate commissions, and sales of products and services. This income helps cover the many costs of running this site, including but not limited to website hosting, email marketing, product creation and delivery, advertising expenses, and income for Brittany Ann and her team.

We also donate 10% of all profits to non-profits we love, including Compassion International, Cure.org, Mercy House Global, Hope International, and more.

While we take great care to provide information that is as Biblically accurate, helpful, and trustworthy as possible, we are not trained pastors, priests, theologians, medical professionals, or trained counselors, and all information on this site should be used for informational purposes only.

Furthermore, while we try to keep the information on this website up-to-date, but select content on the site may be or become outdated, inaccurate, or no longer relevant. Any product claim, statistic, quote or other representation about a product or service should be verified with the manufacturer, provider, or party in question.

You are also encouraged to seek additional sources such as pastors, priests, trained counselors and trusted Godly friends for additional advice, opinions, and insights.

Privacy Policy

Here at Equipping Godly Women, your privacy and trust are very important to us. While we do track some basic information about you and your browsing behavior while on this site, you can rest assured that we collect this information only to analyze site performance, provide you with a better user experience, serve ads that are relevant to your needs, and help us make better content decisions going forward.

We only work with third-party providers we trust to keep all our data safe, and we never, ever sell any of your personal information.

 

How we collect information and the types of information we collect: 

  • Google Analytics: Google Analytics is a popular web analytics service we use to track general trends in traffic and website performance. It provides us with lots of great analytics information we use to create a site you’ll love, such as which posts are receiving the most traffic and where our traffic is coming from. While this does put a cookie on your computer, it does not store ANY personally identifying information about you. Just overall trends that can’t be tied to a certain user. If you are not comfortable with Google collecting demographic information about you, Google does provide the option to opt-out of Google tracking here.
  • Facebook Pixel: Equipping Godly Women also uses the Facebook pixel so we can show you Facebook and/or Instagram ads about new products, services, or freebies we think you’ll be interested in. This also places a cookie on your computer, but it doesn’t give us any personally identifying information about you. We may also upload your name and email to Facebook to reach you with ads. You can learn more about Facebook tracking, adjust your preferences or opt-out altogether in your Facebook ad preferences.
  • Email Sign-Ups: If you choose to sign up by email, we will have access to your IP address along with other information you provide, such as your name, email, and what forms you opted into. We also “tag” users based on the links you click in order to provide emails that are customized to your preference. For example, you have the option to opt out of parenting emails and certain promotions. Unsubscribing does not delete your info from our system, but we would be happy to delete your info from our email service provider upon request.
  • Comment Boxes, Giveaways and Surveys: If you choose to leave a comment on this site, enter a giveaway or answer a survey, we only collect basic information such as your IP address and/or browser information, plus any information you provide. We use this information to serve you better (by answering your questions in comment boxes or writing content around the most common survey answers, for example).
  • Product Purchases:  We store only basic information as needed to complete your transaction, including but not limited to your name, email address, physical address (if provided), IP address and purchase details.
  • Ads. Some of the ads we run may collect non-personal information, such as IP address and websites viewed. You can block all third-party cookies in your browser settings. However, this is likely to negatively impact your user experience across the web as a whole.

If you ever have any questions or concerns, you’d like a complete list of the data we have for you, you’d like to opt out, or if you would like us to erase all of your data in our systems, please email us at [email protected] and let us know how we can help.

All of our writers have personal experience with Christianity, understand the nuances well, and agree to adhere to strict editorial guidelines.

Accuracy: All of our articles are fact-checked against multiple sources, using the Bible as the primary source when applicable.

Outside Influence: We rarely produce sponsored content, but if and when we do, all sponsored content is clearly disclosed. Otherwise, all content is based on what we believe will be most helpful to our readers based on our own knowledge and insights, questions we receive, relevant current events, and data showing which topics are most popular.
