Security
Going Pastoral takes precautions to protect your information. When you submit sensitive information via the website, your
information is protected both online and offline. Wherever we collect sensitive information (e.g. credit card information), that
information is encrypted and transmitted to us in a secure way. You can verify this by looking for a lock icon in the address bar
and looking for "https" at the beginning of the address of the webpage.
While we use encryption to protect sensitive information transmitted online, we also protect your information offline. Only
employees who need the information to perform a specific job (for example, billing or customer service) are granted access to
personally identifiable information. The computers and servers in which we store personally identifiable information are kept in
a secure environment. This is all done to prevent any loss, misuse, unauthorized access, disclosure or modification of the
user's personal information under our control.

confidence in the internet and website use by providing simple and secure access and communication of credit card and
personal information.
