Effective Date: 10 October 2026
The Texas Catholic Marriage Project (“TCMP,” “we,” “our,” or “us”) respects the privacy of persons who visit this website, use its educational resources, or communicate with the organization. This Privacy Policy explains the information the website may collect, how that information may be used, and the choices available to visitors.
TCMP may receive information that you voluntarily provide through a contact form, email, mailing-list registration, event registration, resource request, survey, or other website feature. Depending upon the feature used, this information may include your name; email address or other contact information; organization; the subject and contents of your communication; materials you voluntarily submit; and information necessary to respond to a request or administer a website function.
Please do not submit confidential case files, privileged communications, sensitive medical or psychological records, Social Security numbers, financial-account information, or information concerning minor children through the website.
When you visit the website, the hosting provider and any enabled technical services may automatically receive limited information such as Internet Protocol address, browser and device type, operating system, referring website, pages visited, date and time of access, and general website-performance and security information. TCMP may use this information to maintain the website, protect it from misuse, evaluate general traffic patterns, and improve accessibility and performance.
The website may use cookies or similar technologies necessary for security, basic operation, form submission, preference retention, or aggregate traffic measurement. Visitors may adjust browser settings to limit or reject cookies, although doing so may affect certain website functions. Any nonessential analytics, advertising, or tracking technology should be identified and addressed through an appropriate consent mechanism before use.
TCMP may use information received through the website to respond to an inquiry; provide requested educational materials; administer subscriptions or event registrations; maintain and improve the website; conduct institutional research and public education; protect the security and integrity of TCMP systems; comply with applicable legal obligations; and maintain appropriate organizational records. Submission of information does not create an attorney-client, clergy-penitent, pastoral, medical, psychological, counseling, fiduciary, or other professional relationship.
TCMP does not sell personal information. Information may be disclosed to service providers that perform necessary functions on TCMP’s behalf, such as website hosting, form processing, email distribution, file storage, security, or technical support. TCMP may also disclose information when reasonably necessary to comply with law, respond to lawful process, protect website security, prevent fraud or misuse, or protect rights and safety. Information may be shared with a person’s consent or at that person’s direction.
TCMP is an educational and public-interest organization. It does not provide individual legal representation, case evaluation, pastoral counseling, psychological treatment, mediation, or emergency services. Communications sent through the website may not be confidential or privileged. TCMP may decline to review or retain unsolicited case materials. Submitting documents does not obligate TCMP to respond, investigate, intervene, or preserve them.
The website is directed toward adults and is not designed to collect personal information directly from children. Minors should not submit personal information without the involvement and permission of a parent or lawful guardian. Adults should not submit unnecessary identifying information about children.
A person who voluntarily subscribes may receive educational materials, organizational updates, research notices, or event information. Each nonessential electronic mailing should provide a reasonable method for unsubscribing.
TCMP may record aggregate information concerning downloads. A third-party service hosting or distributing a document may collect information according to its own policies. TCMP does not control and is not responsible for the privacy or security practices of external websites.
TCMP will retain personal information only as long as reasonably necessary for the purpose for which it was received, legitimate organizational recordkeeping, or legal requirements. TCMP uses reasonable administrative and technical measures appropriate to the information maintained. No website, email system, or electronic-storage method can guarantee absolute security.
A person may contact TCMP through the Contact page to request correction or deletion of personal information previously submitted directly to TCMP. TCMP may verify identity before acting and may retain information when reasonably necessary to comply with law, preserve records, protect legal rights, prevent misuse, or complete a requested communication.
TCMP may revise this Privacy Policy when its website practices, services, or legal obligations change. The effective date should be updated whenever a material revision is published.
Questions or requests concerning this Privacy Policy may be submitted through the TCMP Contact page.
Before publication, the website developer must verify the actual analytics, cookies, hosting provider, form processor, mailing-list service, retention practices, security configuration, and contact workflow. The final policy must describe what the website actually does.
