Your privacy

Who we are

The Testament Church Int'l, at MarcFait Schrijverstraat 2, Almere, is responsible for your information. If you have a question about anything on this page, email team@thetestament.nl or call +31 6 18239082.

When you get in touch

If you send us a request on this website, email, call or message us on Instagram, perhaps to tell us you're coming or to ask for the home group address, we receive your name, your contact details and whatever you choose to share. We use them to reply to you and to help you settle in.

Only our church team reads your messages. We don't sell your details, and we only pass them on if the law requires it. Our email runs on Google Workspace, so Google stores those messages for us, and Instagram stores any messages you send us there.

Requests sent through this website are stored in a private Cloudflare database in the European Union that only our church team can open, and they're deleted automatically after 12 months. If you leave an email address, the website sends you a confirmation through Cloudflare. To keep out bots, the form uses Cloudflare Turnstile, which checks your browser when you open it. We keep other details for as long as we need them to help you or to stay in touch. If you'd like us to delete anything sooner, just ask.

When you visit this website

Our website is hosted by Cloudflare, which handles your IP address and basic technical details, such as your browser type, to show you the pages and protect the site from attacks. We don't use these to find out who you are.

We don't use analytics, and the website doesn't set any cookies of its own.

YouTube, Spotify and other services

The sermon pictures on our home page and Sermons page load directly from YouTube, so YouTube, which is part of Google, can see your IP address when you open those pages. The video player itself only loads when you press play.

Our links to YouTube, Spotify, Instagram and Google Maps take you to those services, and their own privacy policies apply there: Google, Spotify and Instagram.

Cloudflare and Google are based in the United States, so your information may be handled there. They rely on the legal safeguards that European privacy law requires for this.

Photos

The photos on this website are of our church family, shared with their agreement. If you're in a photo and would like it taken down, tell us and we'll remove it.

Why we can use your information

We reply to your messages and run this website because we have a legitimate interest in doing so. We use photos with the agreement of the people in them.

Getting in touch with a church can say something about what you believe. If you share anything like that with us, we use it only to care for you, and we treat it with care.

Your rights

You can ask to see the information we hold about you, and ask us to correct it, delete it or stop using it. If you've given your agreement to something, you can change your mind at any time. Email team@thetestament.nl and we'll respond within a month.

If you're unhappy with how we've handled your information, please tell us so we can put it right. You can also complain to the Dutch data protection authority, the Autoriteit Persoonsgegevens.
