Who we are
‘Hallowed be Your Name’ is not a charity, non-profit, business or organisation. It is a ‘grassroots’ movement of individuals with a common purpose and desire to serve others. As such we have no formal structures but our accountability is through our relationships with one another. We believe in transparency and being accountable to those who access and use our services. Below we have outlined a policy to which we can be held to account for those who use our website and subscribe to our emails.
Privacy Policy
Understand what personal information we collect and how it will be handled.
At ‘Hallowed be Your Name’ we respect your right to privacy online and understand that you want to keep control of your personal information. That’s why we are committed to protecting any information you share with us.
We will never sell, distribute or intentionally make your personal information public and have implemented appropriate technical and organisational security measures to protect the data you share with us from loss and preserve its security and confidentiality. All your interactions with our website are protected by strong 256-bit encryption (SSL) and we aim to collect the minimum of personal information needed to provide an effective service.
We believe in being transparent about what data we are collecting and how it will be handled. The information below sets out our privacy policy in detail. In each case we’ll explain why a particular piece of data is being processed and how long it will be retained. We are also committed to providing relevant information and control at the point of collection so that you can make informed decisions about what personal data you choose to share with us.
Our Legal Bases for Processing
We collect and process information about you only where we have legal bases for doing so. The legal bases will depend on the individual services you use and how you use them. Additional information is provided below but in general terms we will only collect and use your information where:
- It is necessary for us to provide you with a service, including for support or to protect the safety and security of the services itself.
- It satisfies a legitimate interest which is not overridden by your data protection interests. Such as for research and development.
- You have given us consent to do so for a specific purpose.
- We need to process your data to comply with a legal obligation.
In cases where you have consented to our use of your personal information for a specific purpose you have the right to change your mind at any time. Where we are using your information because we have a legitimate interest to do so, you have the right to object to that use, but in some cases this may mean your are no longer able to access our services.
Third Party Data Processors
Like most businesses we rely on third-party providers to support our day-to-day operations, for example in areas such as online file storage and email delivery. We may also hire third parties to operate, maintain or improve our website and other digital services. Some of these service providers will by necessity have access to or be directly involved in processing or storing a subset of the personal information you share with us.
All our third-party data processors have been carefully chosen as service suppliers who also practice responsible data handling. We believe that each has in place appropriate protections to ensure the security of the data we store or process with them and have clear policies for how they treat that data. But if in doubt you should review their individual Privacy Policies.
20i (Website hosting & Email services)

MailChimp (Email subscription & newsletter services)
https://mailchimp.com/legal/privacy/ – We use MailChimp as our provider for subscription and newsletter services. When you subscribe on our site to receive event information, news and updates your details are sent directly to MailChimp and stored on their systems. MailChimp offers you the opportunity to manage your data directly including updating your details and unsubscribing.
Before using or sharing your information with third parties in ways not described here or previously authorised by you, we will provide you with notice and an opportunity to control the further use or disclosure of your personal information.
Transfers outside of the European Economic Area
Under certain circumstances we will transfer your information outside of the European Economic Area. We will only do this with your informed consent, when it is necessary to perform a contract we have with you or where the receiving organisation has adequate safeguards in place – for example certification under the EU-US Privacy Shield framework.

Personal Data Breaches
A breach is considered any loss, alteration, unauthorised disclosure of, or access to, personal data. We are committed to disclosing any personal data breaches that might adversely affect your rights and freedoms without undue delay so that you can take appropriate action. This includes breaches affecting the third party services identified in this privacy policy, where personal data is being held on our behalf.
Currently the only data we will have are your name, email and country. This data will be held within MailChimp’s own systems and not by us directly. Exceptions to this will be any emails you send directly to us either via our website or to one of our email addresses. This will be handled as personal correspondence under this privacy policy.
Questions & Access Requests
The General Data Protection Regulation (2018) gives you the right to know what person data we hold, to have it updated if it is inaccurate or removed entirely if you no longer consent to our use of it. We will endeavour to respond to any such requests within one month confirming receipt and outlining what follow-up actions will be taken and when. Updates to your data can be done directly on MailChimp via the link provided on any email newsletters you have received.
We also welcome questions about our Privacy Policy and these or any access requests should be sent via our website.
