Pillar 02

Data Governance

We set the rules of the road for church data: how it is defined, who is responsible for it, how it is protected, and how it can be used to support good decisions.

What we do

Services

Policies, standards, and stewardship that keep church data accurate, protected, and useful.

Policy & Standards

Shared definitions and data standards so information means the same thing everywhere.

Privacy & Compliance

Guidance on privacy obligations and how to handle personal information responsibly.

Data Quality

Checks and processes that keep records accurate, complete, and current.

Stewardship & Roles

Clear owners and stewards for every key data domain.

Data Catalog

A searchable inventory of data sets, what they contain, and who to ask.

Data Literacy

Training that helps teams read, question, and use data with confidence.
