Here you can edit what you created when you first built your account or add even more details about you – for example: load a photo, share other personal interests, where you’ve studied, your work history, and more.

What ARE THE TAGS FOR?

Tags are how we each identify ourselves and is the basis for how we then identify with each other. It is the master design behind the community platform and it is what we use to gather members around topics of worldview, blogs and the various other content we create, as well as their professional fields, social issues, life stage, and where we live (or have interest) in the United States or around the world. When you create your profile, you select a number of these tags. This allows us to help connect you to relevant content and other members.

How do the social sign-ins work (Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter)?

Many times we don’t want to create another account and save another username and password. You have the choice to create your account with simply a username and password or to use our social sign-in features. When you click any of those social sign-on options, you will be prompted to agree to your intent to sign-in through that platform. We may pull in a few pieces to pre-populate your profile such as your name. Signing in with other social platforms helps your experience as we can show others of your friends who are also connected in the community.

COOKIES, PIXELS & SIMILAR TECHNOLOGIES

Technologies like cookies, pixel tags ("pixels"), device or other identifiers and local storage (collectively, “Cookies and similar technologies”) are used to deliver, secure, and understand products, services, and ads, on and off the Truth Encounter Ministries Services.

We offer a range of products and features that involve the use of these technologies to reach you based on your activity on and off our Services. As described in more detail below, we also use these technologies in other ways, like for security purposes, to deliver and enable products and services, as well as to understand and measure products, and services. Third parties that you interact with as you use the Truth Encounter Ministries Services may also use these technologies for a variety of purposes.

Check back here from time to time to get the latest information about these technologies and how they are used.

Your browser or device may offer settings related to these technologies. For more information about whether these settings are available, what they do, and how they work, visit your browser or device's help material. We may not recognize or respond to browser or device signals around tracking, and some settings may interfere with your use of features we offer. Additionally, the settings offered by a browser or device often only apply to that particular browser or device.

WHAT ARE SOME OF THESE TECHNOLOGIES?

Cookies are small files that are placed on your browser or device by the website you’re using. Pixel tags (also called clear GIFs, web beacons, or pixels) are small blocks of code on a webpage or app that allow them to do things like read and place cookies and transmit information to us or our partners. The resulting connection can include information such as a device’s IP address, the time a person viewed the pixel, an identifier associated with the browser or device and the type of browser being used. Local storage is an industry-standard technology that allows a website or app to store and retrieve data on a person’s computer, mobile phone or other device. Some examples include device or HTML5 local storage and caching.

WHY DO WE USE COOKIES AND SIMILAR TECHNOLOGIES?

We use these technologies for a variety of reasons, such as allowing us to show you content that’s most relevant to you; improving our products and services; and helping to keep our Services secure. While specific names of the Cookies and similar technologies that we use may change from time to time as we improve and update our Services, they generally fall into the below categories of use:

Authentication

These technologies tell us when you’re logged in, so we can show you the appropriate experience and features.

For example, Cookies and similar technologies tell us when you are logged in to Truth Encounter Ministries so we can show you relevant and social information when you visit other websites that use our social plugins. We also use this information to understand how you use our Platform and other apps and services.

Security and Site Integrity

These help keep Truth Encounter Ministries Services safe and secure. They support or enable security features and help us detect activity that violates our Statement of Rights and Responsibilities.

For example, they help protect your account from being accessed by anyone other than you. Cookies and similar technologies also let us know when several people have logged in from the same computer. With login approvals if someone logs into your account from a browser you’ve never used before, we may block them and ask for more information. They also help us implement login notifications, so you can be alerted when your account is accessed and disable any active sessions.

Besides helping to keep unauthorized people from logging into your account, we also use Cookies and similar technologies to help make sure the people or machines that access our Services don’t violate our policies. For example, certain information on Truth Encounter Ministries is public and therefore can be accessed by anyone on the internet. These Cookies and similar technologies help us understand the volume and frequency of requests so we can detect and stop people or machines from “scraping” information from our site.

We use tools like cookies to help keep Truth Encounter Ministries Services safe, secure and easy to use. Cookies support or enable security features. For example, with login approvals if someone logs into your account from a browser you’ve never used before, we may block them and ask for more information. They also help us implement login notifications, so you can be alerted when your account is accessed under suspicious circumstances and disable any active Truth Encounter Ministries sessions.

We also use these tools to make Truth Encounter Ministries easier to use, like when you mistype one character of your username or password. If you’ve already logged into Truth Encounter Ministries from the same browser, we’ll give you easier options to correct your typo since we know you’ve successfully logged into Truth Encounter Ministries before.

Localization

These help us provide localized experiences.

Site Features and Services

These provide functionality that help us deliver products and services.

For example, Cookies or similar technologies help you log in by pre-filling the username field. We may also use Cookies and similar technologies to help us store preferences, know when you’ve seen or interacted with Truth Encounter Ministries Services’ content, and provide you and others with social plugins and other customized content and experiences, such as making suggestions to you and others.

Performance

We use these to provide you with the best experience possible.

For example, we may use Cookies or similar technologies to help us route traffic between servers and understand how quickly Truth Encounter Ministries Services load for different people. Sometimes we may store information on your browser or device so features you are using load and respond faster.

Analytics and Research

These are used to understand, improve, and research products and services, including when you access Truth Encounter Ministries Services or other websites and apps from a computer or mobile device.

For example, we may use Cookies or similar technologies (including information from your device) to understand how you are using social plugins to improve them. We may share information about this analysis with our partners.

How do we use cookies, local storage or similar technologies when you use a mobile device?

Many mobile devices act just like computers, such as smart phones that support full-featured browsers. For those devices, we and our partners use Cookies and similar technologies in ways that are similar to when you are accessing the web from a computer. Other devices use different technologies such as local storage on a device, Advanced Programming Interfaces (APIs) to facilitate the same types of processes we use Cookies for, as described above.

We may obtain or receive information about your use of your device, our apps, or other apps. As on the web, we also may use these technologies to store an identifier or other information on your device. We describe how we use these technologies and the information we received through their use above. For example, if we learn that you’re already using an app, when you click on a link in News Feed from that app, we can send you directly to that app. If you don’t have the app, we would instead send you to an app store so you could download the app.

When might we use cookies, device identifiers, local storage or similar technologies?

We may place or use these technologies when you interact with our Services, our related companies, or with a partner (whether or not you are logged in to the particular Service) using a browser or device that permits the placement or use of the relevant technology. For example, when you visit our site, we may place or read cookies or receive information from your devices. We may also place cookies through a pixel on a partner’s site.

When might we read the cookies on your computer or device?

Web browsers send any cookies for a particular web domain (ex: Truth Encounter Ministries.com OR ServiceReef.com) to the website each time a machine with those cookies accesses content served from that domain. This means that any Truth Encounter Ministries.com cookies will be sent to Truth Encounter Ministries when any page is accessed at Truth Encounter Ministries.com by that machine. It also means that these cookies are sent to Truth Encounter Ministries when someone accesses a third-party website or application that integrates or uses our Services, like one of our plugins.

Sometimes we work with websites, apps and their partners so that we can place or read Truth Encounter Ministries cookies on your browsers or devices when you visit third-party services. This allows us to do things like read and reference cookies from more than one device or browser that you use, on and off of our Services, so we can provide you Truth Encounter Ministries Services across all of your devices and improve and understand the products, ads and services we offer to you and others across the Internet.

How do third parties use cookies, pixel tags ("pixels") and other similar technologies on our Services?

We sometimes use service providers to help us provide certain products and services. When you view, click or otherwise interact with an ad or app on or off Truth Encounter Ministries, our partners also use cookies, pixels or similar technologies (like local storage or information from your device), to help provide you with relevant services and ads. For example, a platform partner may use cookies, software developer kits (SDKs) or similar technologies to customize your experience while you’re using their app. Or, a partner may use a cookie to decide whether they want us to show you one of their ads or to measure the performance of the ads you see. Our partners also may use these technologies to help share information with our Services, like how you use their website or app.

We or others may integrate third party features like maps or videos to provide you with better services. The providers of those integrations may collect information when you view or use them, including information about you and your device or browser.

To balance the needs and interests of a global population, Truth Encounter Ministries protects expression that meets the community standards outlined on this page.

Please review these standards. They will help you understand what type of expression is acceptable, and what type of content may be reported and removed.

Violence and Threats

Safety is Truth Encounter Ministries's top priority. We remove content and may escalate to law enforcement when we perceive a genuine risk of physical harm, or a direct threat to public safety. You may not credibly threaten others, or organize acts of real-world violence. Organizations with a record of terrorist or violent criminal activity are not allowed to maintain a presence on our site. We also prohibit promoting, planning or celebrating any of your actions if they have, or could, result in financial harm to others, including theft and vandalism.

Self-Harm

Truth Encounter Ministries takes threats of self-harm very seriously. We remove any promotion or encouragement of self-mutilation, eating disorders or hard drug abuse.

Bullying and Harassment

Truth Encounter Ministries does not tolerate bullying or harassment. We allow users to speak freely on matters and people of public interest, but take action on all reports of abusive behavior directed at private individuals. Repeatedly targeting other users with unwanted messages is a form of harassment.

Hate Speech

Truth Encounter Ministries does not permit hate speech, but distinguishes between serious and humorous speech. While we encourage you to challenge ideas, institutions, events, and practices, we do not permit individuals or groups to attack others based on their race, ethnicity, national origin, religion, sex, gender, sexual orientation, disability or medical condition.

Graphic Content

Sometimes, those experiences and issues involve graphic content that is of public interest or concern, such as human rights abuses or acts of terrorism. In many instances, when people share this type of content, it is to condemn it. However, graphic images shared for sadistic effect or to celebrate or glorify violence have no place on our site.

When people share any content, we expect that they will share in a responsible manner. That includes choosing carefully the audience for the content. For graphic videos, people should warn their audience about the nature of the content in the video so that their audience can make an informed choice about whether to watch it.

Nudity

Truth Encounter Ministries has a strict policy against the sharing of pornographic content and any explicitly sexual content where a minor is involved. We also impose restrictions on all displays of nudity.

Identity and Privacy

On Truth Encounter Ministries people connect using their real names and identities. We ask that you refrain from publishing the personal information of others without their consent. Claiming to be another person, creating a false presence for an organization, or creating multiple accounts undermines community and violates Truth Encounter Ministries's terms.

Intellectual Property

Before sharing content on Truth Encounter Ministries, please be sure you have the right to do so. We ask that you respect copyrights, trademarks, and other legal rights.

Regulated Goods

It is not permitted to complete transactions involving regulated goods on our platform. If you post an offer involving firearms, alcohol, tobacco, or adult products, we expect you to make sure you’re following all applicable laws and consider carefully the audience for that content. If you are using a Page to connect with your customers and other audiences, you need to abide by our Pages Terms. Do we need this?

Phishing and Spam

We take the safety of our members seriously and work to prevent attempts to compromise their privacy or security. We also ask that you respect our members by not contacting them for commercial purposes without their consent.

Security

We take the safety of our members seriously and work to prevent attempts to compromise their privacy or security, including those that use fraud or deception. Additionally, we ask that you respect our members by not contacting them for commercial purposes without their consent.

Reporting Abuse

If you see something on Truth Encounter Ministries that you believe violates our terms, you should report it first to the community you are a member and then to us. Please keep in mind that reporting a piece of content does not guarantee that it will be removed from the site.

Because of the diversity of our community, it's possible that something could be disagreeable or disturbing to you without meeting the criteria for being removed or blocked.

PAYMENT TERMS

If you are under the age of eighteen (18), you may use Truth Encounter Ministries Payments only with the involvement of your parent or guardian. Make sure you review these Terms with your parent or guardian so that you both understand all of your rights and responsibilities.

We have provided some section headers for your convenience, but you should carefully read through these Payments Terms (the "Terms") in order to understand your rights and responsibilities, as well as ours.

When you use the Truth Encounter Ministries Payments service to pay for things on Truth Encounter Ministries, you agree that we may communicate with you electronically any important information regarding your purchases or your account.

1. MAKING PURCHASES

Pricing

Pay attention to the details of the transaction, because your total price may include taxes, fees, and shipping costs, all of which you are responsible for funding.

Extra terms

You may be presented with additional terms related to a specific purchase before you confirm the transaction (such as shipping terms for tangible goods). Those additional terms will also govern that transaction.

Subscriptions

If you purchase a subscription (or membership) to a community or to a feature within a community, we will bill your funding instrument immediately, and then again at the beginning of each subscription period. The following terms apply for subscriptions purchased through Truth Encounter Ministries Payments:

If a free trial period is offered and you do not cancel during the free trial period, you will be billed at the end of the free trial period and at the beginning of each subsequent subscription period. Member will be billed on the anniversary date of their free trial membership retirement date. Member can cancel membership at any point. Membership invoices will be sent upon payment for memberships.
You can cancel subscriptions at any time (applying to all terms and conditions set by each community).
If you cancel a subscription you will still have access to the community or feature you subscribed to through the end of the subscription period. If a community or feature you subscribed to becomes unavailable during your subscription you will not be billed at the beginning of the next subscription period.

Actual sale

No Warranties

You acknowledge that the products or services you may purchase are sold by merchants, not by Truth Encounter Ministries. WE MAKE NO WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, WITH RESPECT TO ANY PRODUCTS OR SERVICES SOLD ON OR THROUGH Truth Encounter Ministries.

Funding instruments

We want to make Truth Encounter Ministries Payments convenient, so we allow you to fund your transactions using a number of different sources, like credit cards or debit cards.

When you fund a transaction, you authorize our designated payment processor to charge the full amount to the funding instrument you designate for the transaction. You also authorize our designated payment processor to collect and store that funding instrument, along with other related transaction information.

Authorization

If you pay by credit or debit card, we may obtain a pre-approval from the issuer of the card for an amount, which may be as high as the full price of your purchase. We will bill your card at the time of transaction or approval or shortly thereafter. If you cancel a transaction before completion, this pre-approval may result in those funds not otherwise being immediately available to you.

3. ACTIONS WE MAY TAKE

At-will use

We may revoke your eligibility to use Truth Encounter Ministries Payments at any time at our sole discretion.

Payment limitations

In order to prevent financial loss to you or to us, we may place a delay on a payment for a period of time, or limit funding instruments for a transaction, or limit your ability to make a purchase, or deactivate your account.

Sharing of information

In order to prevent financial loss to you or to us, we may contact your funding instrument issuer, law enforcement, or affected third parties (including other users) and share details of any payments you are associated with, if we believe doing so may prevent financial loss or a violation of law.

Our only responsibility is to handle your funding transaction. All funding transactions are final unless required by law. If you order something that becomes unavailable before it can be provided to you, you may request a refund of your funded amount.

Duty to notify us

If you believe that an unauthorized or otherwise problematic transaction has taken place under your account, you agree to notify us immediately, so that we may take action to prevent financial loss.

Such material may not be used except as provided in these terms and conditions without the express written permission of Truth Encounter Ministries. We grant you permission to download material displayed on this site for your personal, non-commercial use only, provided that you retain all copyright and other ownership notices contained on the materials. You may not, however, distribute, modify, transmit, reuse, report, or use the contents of the site for public or commercial purposes.

Trademark

The Truth Encounter Ministries logo is a registered trademark of Truth Encounter Ministries, in the United States of America and in other countries. The trademarks and other Truth Encounter Ministries graphics, logos, and service names are also trademarks of Truth Encounter Ministries. Truth Encounter Ministries’s trademarks may not be used in connection with any product or service that is not under Truth Encounter Ministries’s ownership or control. Furthermore, such trademarks may not be used in any manner that is likely to cause confusion among customers or in any manner that disparages or discredits Truth Encounter Ministries.

Using Social Login/Logging into this site using Social Sites

The Social Platform of Facebook, LinkedIn, and Twitter allow you log into other applications and websites using your personal account. When you log in using Facebook, LinkedIn, and Twitter, these social platforms gives Truth Encounter Ministries your User ID (just like when you connect with any other application), but Facebook, LinkedIn, and Twitter do not share your email address or password with us through this process without your permission.

If you already have an account on this site, we may also be able to connect that account with your Facebook, LinkedIn, and Twitter account. Sometimes we do this using what is called an "email hash,” which is similar to searching for someone on this site using an email address. Only the email addresses in this case are hashed so no email addresses are actually shared between Facebook, LinkedIn, and Twitter, and this site.

How it works

This site sends over a hashed version of your email address, and Facebook, LinkedIn, or Twitter matches it with a database of email addresses that Facebook, LinkedIn, or Twitter has also hashed. If there is a match, then Facebook tells us the User ID associated with the email address. This way, when you log into this site using Facebook, LinkedIn, or Twitter, this site can link your Facebook, LinkedIn, or Twitter account to your account on this site.
