Policy to Protect Personal Information

Koinonia Evangelical Church (KEC) respects your privacy.

When you engage in Koinonia Evangelical Church (KEC), whether it is to participate in a ministry and volunteer activities, apply for baptism, children dedication or church membership, or request a donation receipt, we need to collect some personal information from you. The information will be used solely for the following purposes:

  • To enable communication;
  • To provide income tax receipts;
  • To handle church administration;
  • To plan, develop and operate church ministries;
  • To administrate volunteer activities; and,
  • To meet statutory and regulatory requirements. 

Unless we hear otherwise, provision of personal information on official church forms, paper or online, constitutes consent for Koinonia Evangelical Church to collect, use and disclose personal information for the purposes stated in this statement. The personal information we collect shall be limited only to that which is necessary for the purposes identified.

Koinonia Evangelical Church uses appropriate security safeguards to protect personal information from risks such as loss, misuse, unauthorized access, disclosure, or alteration. Safeguards include physical, administrative, and electronic security measures. In the course of daily operations, access to personal information is restricted to those employees and volunteers whose job responsibilities require them to
access it. 

You will be able to update and review your information as needed. We rely on you to ensure that certain information, such as mailing address, email address and telephone number, is current, complete and accurate.

You may refuse or withdraw consent at any time. Decisions to withhold particular information may impact your ability to meet specific requirements for the provision of certain services or participation of certain church activities.

The development of the Koinonia Evangelical Church’s policies and procedures for the protection of personal information is an ongoing process. Due to changes in technology and legal requirements, KEC may revise this policy from time to time.

The way KEC collects, uses, safeguards and discloses your personal information is regulated under the Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA). Please call our office at 604-214-8243 or email admin@koinoniachurch.ca if you have any concerns.
