Our Mailing Lists. We do not sell, license, or share our mailing lists with other organizations. When you sign up for our mailing lists, we will only send you information having to do with Desiring God or, on a rare occasion, information on other organizations which we feel is directly in line with our mission and passion. However, any mailing regarding another organization will be handled directly by Desiring God.

Our Website. The personal information we collect about you on our website, desiringGod.org, is strictly limited to the information you provide us with when you purchase, contribute, register for a conference, or sign up for a mailing list.

Online Contributions and Purchases. When you make a contribution or purchase from our website, the personal information you provide us with is protected using SSL encryption, which protects sensitive data transmissions from your computer to our website. With SSL encryption, the information you enter when you make a purchase is encrypted at your browser, then sent over the Internet in encrypted form, and finally de-encrypted when it reaches us at our server. As a visitor to our site, you should be able to see when the SSL encryption is active by the "padlock" icon at the bottom of your browser's window.
