3. How We Share & Syndicate Your Information

We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information or media to third-party marketers for commercial profit. We share your information only in the following contexts: Public & Partner Syndication (With Opt-In Consent): If you choose to share your testimony publicly, your approved story, media files, and chosen display name/pseudonym will be viewable by the public and shared with partner churches, campus ministries, event organizers, and broadcast channels.

4. Privacy Choices, Anonymity & Student Information

Anonymous Submissions: You may choose to submit your testimony anonymously or under a pseudonym. While we require valid contact details internally to confirm age and submission authenticity, your public attribution will strictly honor your selected privacy preference.
