In Short: HBM does not currently transfer, store, maintain, and process your Personal Information in countries other than the United States of America; our servers are located in the United States of America.
Beginning in mid-2023, along with the entire Americans Restoring America family of Client Websites, His Bride Ministries will be migrating the Site, including databases and content, to newer, faster, reliable, ultra-secure, freedom-of-speech web hosting service provider in Iceland where HBM maintains its new, private, Dedicated Servers.
The Icelandic service provider is one of the few companies using highly-sophisticated DDoS protection methods to mitigate possible attacks toward our Site. Their system is designed to protect our Site against all types of service exhaustion attacks and they guarantee their capability to mitigate attacks up to 250Gb/second. They have a mitigation team on duty around the clock to monitoring our Site.

When HBM has no ongoing legitimate business need to process your Personal Information, we will either delete or anonymize such information, or, if this is not possible (for example, because your Personal Information has been stored in backup archives), then HBM will securely store your Personal Information and isolate it from any further processing until deletion is possible.
In Short: HBM aims to protect your Personal Information through a system of organizational and technical security measures.
His Bride Ministries has implemented appropriate and reasonable technical and organizational security measures designed to protect the security of any Personal Information we process. However, despite our safeguards and efforts to secure your information, no electronic transmission over the Internet or information storage technology can be guaranteed to be 100% secure, so HBM cannot promise or guarantee that hackers, cybercriminals, or other unauthorized third parties will not be able to defeat our security and improperly collect, access, steal, or modify your information. Although we will do our best to protect your Personal Information, transmission of Personal Information to and from our Services is at your own risk. You should only access the Services within a secure environment.

You can withdraw your consent at any time by contacting us by using the contact details provided in the Section HOW CAN YOU CONTACT HBM? below or updating your preferences.
However, please note that this will not affect the lawfulness of the processing before its withdrawal, nor when applicable law allows, will it affect the processing of your Personal Information conducted in reliance on lawful processing grounds other than consent.

Cookies and similar technologies: Most Web Browsers are set to accept cookies by default. If you prefer, you can usually choose to set your browser to remove cookies and to reject cookies. If you choose to remove cookies or reject cookies, this could affect certain features or services of our Services. To opt out of interest-based advertising by advertisers on our Services visit ABOUT ADS. For further information, please see the Section DO WE USE COOKIES AND OTHER TRACKING TECHNOLOGIES? above.
Most web browsers and some mobile operating systems and mobile applications include a Do-Not-Track ("DNT") feature or setting you can activate to signal your privacy preference not to have data about your online browsing activities monitored and collected. At this stage, no uniform technology standard for recognizing and implementing DNT signals has been finalized. As such, HBM does not currently respond to DNT browser signals or any other mechanism that automatically communicates your choice not to be tracked online. If a standard for online tracking is adopted that we must follow in the future, HBM will inform you about that practice in a revised version of this Privacy Policy.
