Privacy Policy
Effective date: September 1, 2026
We keep it simple: we don't sell your data, we don't share it unnecessarily, and we tell you exactly what we collect and why.
Who we are
ChristianSlang.com is operated by Christian Chain, Inc., a ministry organization. Our contact address is [email protected].
What we collect and why
Analytics (Google Analytics)
We use Google Analytics to understand how visitors use the site — which terms are read most, how people navigate, and where traffic comes from. Google Analytics may set cookies and collect your IP address (anonymized), browser type, device type, and pages visited.
This data is aggregated and used only to improve the site. We do not use it to identify individual visitors.
You can opt out of Google Analytics tracking via the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.
Advertising (Google AdSense)
We display ads through Google AdSense. Google may use cookies and similar technologies to serve ads based on your interests and prior visits to this and other websites.
You can control interest-based advertising preferences through Google's Ad Settings or opt out at AboutAds.info.
Newsletter and email
If you sign up for our newsletter or download a free resource, we collect your email address to send you the content you requested and occasional updates about the dictionary. We do not sell or share your email address. You can unsubscribe at any time using the link in any email we send.
Free resource access cookies
When you download a free guide through our site, we set a small browser cookie to remember that you've received it (so you don't have to re-enter your email each visit). These cookies contain no personal information — just a simple flag — and expire after 30 days.
Suggestion form
When you submit a term suggestion, we collect the information you provide (the term, your notes, and optionally your email address if you'd like a response). This information is used only to review and respond to your submission.
What we do not collect
We do not collect payment information (we have no paid products on this site), social security numbers, government ID numbers, or sensitive personal categories of data as defined under GDPR.

This site uses the following third-party services, each with their own privacy policies:
- Google (Analytics, AdSense)

- Logos Bible Software (RefTagger — scripture reference tooltips)
We are not responsible for the privacy practices of these third parties.
Cookies
We use the following categories of cookies:
- Essential: cookies required for basic site function (e.g., theme preference, lead magnet access).
- Analytics: Google Analytics cookies to measure site usage.
- Advertising: Google AdSense cookies to serve and measure ads.

Depending on where you live, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, or restrict the processing of personal data we hold about you. To exercise these rights, contact us at [email protected].
