Privacy Policy

INTRODUCTION

MissionNext respects the need to maintain the privacy of information obtained over the Internet. The following describes our policy regarding the collection and use of any personally identifiable information you provide when visiting any missionnext.org website.

Our objective is to seek only the information that is necessary to provide an efficient search for opportunities that are appropriate for you with a mission organization or Christian school located outside the U.S. and Canada. Information you provide allows our partnering Mission Agencies and Schools to contact you should they have an opportunity that fits your interests and Profile selections.

The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) is a set of rules, new as of May 2018, that aims to protect your privacy and make it easier for you to understand how your personal data is handled by the companies you interact with. In support of this new regulation, MissionNext has updated this Privacy Policy to make it easier for you to understand how your personal data is processed.

COLLECTION OF PERSONALLY IDENTIFIABLE INFORMATION:

MissionNext collects personally identifiable information when:

• You register providing your name and email address, which is “personally-identifiable information;” however, nothing is used until a Profile is completed.
• If you only register on any MissionNext website but do not complete a Profile within 30 days, your registration will be manually deleted within another 30-days.
• Completing a Profile allows you to explore opportunities the Lord might have for you in a completely confidential password-protected account. Information provided in a Profile is lost if the session is closed before all required fields are completed.
• When you provide information about yourself by completing a Profile, that information will be used to match you with service opportunities that are a good fit for you in a password-protected area and allow you to take advantage of the services offered by MissionNext.

Your control of personally identifiable information on MissionNext:

• You are in control to provide information and preferences. You can view and edit your information in your password-protected area.
• You can request that your Profile be hidden within the MissionNext website. Your Profile will then be manually inactivated within a few working days, thus making your information unavailable to our partner organizations. When you are ready to re-activate your information, you communicate that request to MissionNext. Your account will be manually restored within a few working days.
• You can request that your Profile be removed from the MissionNext website. Your Profile will then be manually deleted within a few working days and often the same day. If your account is deleted, the removal action is not reversible.

DISCLOSURE OF PERSONALLY IDENTIFIABLE INFORMATION:

MissionNext will only provide the information contained in your Profile to our partner organizations for the purpose of determining if there is an appropriate position within their organization for someone with your skills, interests, and work experience. MissionNext does not disclose any of your personally identifiable information to any other third party unless you have specifically authorized such disclosure or unless such disclosure is required by law or is necessary to protect the safety of other users of MissionNext, partner agency personnel, employees or property.
