Recurring Payments

Designated Funds
The spending of funds is confined to the programs and oversight of MBC. Each gift designated toward a church program will be used as designated. When any given need has been met, or where projects cannot be reasonably carried out, the donor agrees that the designated gifts may be used where needed most.
Limiting Use, Disclosure, and Retention
Nothing in this Privacy Policy prevents the pastoral staff from collecting, retaining, and using information related to individuals ministered to by the Church, since such information assists in providing quality services to those ministered to.
Access to PII will be granted, where MBC is legally required to release the information and provided that the disclosure does not violate any applicable statutes or contracts, to the person to whom the information pertains where there is an appropriate written request. The existence, use and disclosure of the PII will be granted within a reasonable period of time. Any inaccuracy or incompleteness of PII will be amended as required.
