Our Services
We are Servant Keeper. At Servant Keeper, we use software solutions to reduce the administrative burden of faith-based organizations (each a “Community”) so they can spend less time behind the computer and more time doing ministry. Servant Keeper is always creating new products and services to help each Community grow.
This Privacy Policy applies to information we collect in the course of offering our platforms, websites, and mobile applications (collectively, the “Services”), including:
Our websites, such as servantpc.com, servantkeeper.com, skgiving.com, and ministrytracker.com.
Our mobile applications for iOS and Android like Servant Keeper Greet and Attend, and Mobile Ministry.
Our products and services that are available as desktop clients, like Servant Keeper and Check-In.
Our email communications with you.
The Services may allow authorized representatives of a Community acting on behalf of their Community (a “Community User”) to provide us with information about members of a Community. We process such information only on behalf of a Community and do not determine what information is collected or how it is used. If you have questions about information that may be processed by your Community, please contact that Community.
This Privacy Policy does not apply to non-Servant Keeper websites or services that state that they are offered under a different privacy policy. Please review the privacy policies on those websites and applications directly to understand their privacy practices.

In the event of a merger, sale of company assets, or acquisition of all or a portion of our business by another company, or in the unlikely event that Servant Keeper goes out of business or enters bankruptcy, user information would likely be one of the assets that is transferred or acquired by a third party. We cannot promise that an acquiring party or the merged entity will have the same privacy practices or treat your information the same as described in this Privacy Policy.
We may also share information that has been aggregated or reasonably de-identified, so that the information could not reasonably be used to identify any individual. For instance, we may publish aggregate statistics about the use of the Services.
How We Protect and Retain Your Information
We retain your information until we no longer need the information for the purposes for which it was collected, or as may be required by law. We use a combination of physical, technical, and administrative safeguards to protect the information we collect through the Services. While we use these precautions to safeguard your information, we cannot guarantee the security of the networks, systems, servers, devices, and databases that we operate or that are operated on our behalf.

Additional Notice for Individuals in the EEA, Switzerland, or UK
Transfers
Because Servant Keeper’s Services are offered worldwide, the information about you that we process when you use Services in the European Economic Area, Switzerland, or United Kingdom may be used, stored, transferred, accessed, or outside of the area in which you reside (including the United States and other countries where we have facilities or in which we engage service providers). Data protection laws vary from country to country and may not be equivalent to, or as protective as, the laws in your home country. When transferring your information, we take steps to ensure reasonable safeguards are in place to ensure an appropriate level of protection of your information and rely on various legal mechanisms to transfer your information.
Legal Bases
We rely on a variety of legal bases to process your information. We mainly process your information because it is necessary to perform our agreement to provide the Services and fulfill our contractual commitments to your Community (e.g. to enable access to Services), or because the processing is necessary for our legitimate interests where those interests do not override your fundamental rights and freedoms related to data privacy. When you use our text-to-donate services, we rely on your consent as a user of those services. Where we rely on on legitimate interests as a lawful basis, our legitimate interest is promoting Servant Keeper, improving and safeguarding the Services, ensuring effective operational management and internal administration, and the exercise of our rights.
In limited circumstances, we may rely on other legal bases for the processing of your information, including where necessary to comply with a legal obligation or where you provide your consent for processing.
