Privacy Policy

Overview

This Privacy Policy outlines how Tiny Bit Farm (“we,” “our,” or “us”) collect and use our user’s (“you” or “your”) personal information, which we gather from our websites, services and mobile applications (collectively referred to as “Lightpost”). We are committed and strive to ensure that any personal information we collect about you will be held and processed strictly in accordance with applicable data protection legislation, as set out in this Privacy Policy.

This Privacy Policy also describes the choices you have regarding personal information we’ve collected about you. Data processed by Lightpost can be classified in two ways:

  1. Data that has been collected by us for our own purposes; and
  2. Data collected by our users and used for their purposes.

For example, your church may collect data about you and use this data to communicate with you.

This Privacy Policy specifically covers data that is collected by us. We are not responsible for, nor do we have control over, the use of data that is collected by users of Lightpost. Under applicable data protection laws, we are a Data Processor under the GDPR or a Service Provider under CPRA and your organization is the Data Controller under the GDPR or the Business under CPRA.

Information about the privacy and security of our customer’s data is available here.

By using Lightpost, you agree to the collection and use of your personal information in accordance with this Privacy Policy. Terms used in this Privacy Policy have the same meanings as in our Terms and Conditions.

We never sell your data.

We never use 3rd party services that offer free tiers of service in exchange for harvesting and/or selling your data.
