General: for all GCO services
1. Who is responsible
Global Faith Connection, LLC operates Global Centre One (GCO) and its six services: GCO Mart, GCO Books, GCO Card, GCO Digital, GCO AI and GCO Food. This is the one Privacy Policy for all of them. Each service adds its own details below.
2. Your GCO account
We keep your name, e-mail address, year of birth (only to check age, never shown), your language choice and when you signed in. Your password is kept only in scrambled one-way form: nobody at GCO can read it. If you buy as a guest we keep the name and e-mail you gave to prepare your account.
3. What we do with it
To run the services you use, process orders and payments, keep your account safe, answer you and improve GCO. We do not sell your data and we do not use your private content for advertising.
4. Who receives data
Only those who need it for your request: payment providers (PayPal, Stripe, your bank), sellers, restaurants and couriers for the order you made, our hosting and e-mail providers, and our AI partner for GCO AI and for translating public page texts. We share data when the law requires it.
5. Page translation
To show a page in your language we may send the visible texts of public pages to our AI partner for translation. We do not translate account, sign-in, checkout or order pages, so personal details on them are not sent. Translated texts are kept and shared by all services.
6. Cookies and your device
We use cookies and storage on your device only for signing in, the cart, your language choice and security. The list of pages you visited recently (for the Need help? button) stays on your device only.
7. Your choices
You may ask to see, correct, export or delete your data, or delete your account. We keep payment and tax records as long as the law requires. Write to us through the contact page of the website.
8. Security
Connections are encrypted (HTTPS), access to our systems is limited to authorised people, and sign-in links and e-mail confirmations can be used only once. No system is perfectly safe; tell us at once if you suspect a problem.
9. Children
GCO is not meant for children under the minimum age of each service. We do not knowingly collect their data. If you think a child gave us data, tell us and we will delete it.
10. Changes
We may update this policy and will show the new version here.
GCO Mart
Who is responsible
Global Faith Connection, LLC, operator of Global Centre One and GCO Mart.
What we collect
Your name, e-mail, phone, delivery address, your order and payment references, the language you use and the internet address of your order (to prevent fraud). We never receive your card number: PayPal processes it.
Why
To deliver your order, answer your questions, keep the records the law requires (tax and accounting) and protect buyers and vendors from fraud. We do not sell your data and send no advertising without your consent.
Who sees it
The vendor who sends your parcel sees your name, delivery address and phone; carriers (such as USPS and Pos Indonesia) receive what they need to deliver; PayPal receives the payment details; our e-mail provider sends our messages.
How long
Paid orders are kept for 7 years because tax law requires it. Unpaid or cancelled orders are deleted after one year.
Your rights
You may ask for a copy of your data, a correction, or deletion of what we do not have to keep — write to gcosupport@globalcentreone.com. You can also complain to the data protection authority of your country.
Cookies
GCO Mart uses only necessary cookies: one keeps your cart and checkout, one remembers your language. No advertising cookies.
Where data is stored
Our website and its data are hosted in the United States. Using GCO Mart from another country means your data is processed there.
GCO Books
What we keep
- Your account: name, email, country, password (encrypted — nobody can read it).
- Your orders: the books you bought, payment proofs, and for printed books the delivery address and phone number.
- Authors: the books, and the payout details for receiving earnings.
Why
- Only to run GCO Books: accounts, orders, delivery, paying authors, keeping accounts and taxes correct, and protecting against fraud. We do not sell your data.
- Delivery addresses go only to the printer and courier.
- Payment proofs are stored in a protected folder that only the GCO team can open.
How long
- As long as you have an account, and order and payment records as long as tax law requires.
Your rights
- You can change your data in “Account”. You can ask for a copy of your data or ask us to delete it by writing to gcosupport@globalcentreone.com. Records the law requires us to keep are anonymised instead of deleted.
GCO Card
GCO records each scan (time, device type, country). A message, contact or place you send is passed on to the owner and kept for up to 12 months.
GCO Digital
We use your data only for your order. Files are stored privately. For work on your website we ask for a temporary admin account that you delete afterwards — never send passwords by e-mail or messages.
GCO AI
This Privacy Policy explains how GCO AI (Global Centre One, operated by Global Faith Connection, LLC) handles your information. We collect as little as possible and protect what we keep.
1. What we keep
- Your account: with your own GCO AI account we keep your name, e-mail address, year of birth (age check, never shown) and your password in scrambled form (nobody can read it). With “Continue with Google”, Google sends us your name, e-mail address and picture. With a GCO Chat account we use that account’s name, picture and age check. GCO AI does not ask for a phone number.
- Your conversations: questions, answers and files you attach, so you can read them again.
- Your credits: your credit balance and history.
- Payments: amount, date, method, payment code and the PayPal payer e-mail. We never see or store card numbers or bank passwords.
- Safety data: short technical records (for example to stop abuse and too many requests).
2. Why we use it
- To give you answers and pictures, keep your history and credits, and process payments.
- To keep GCO AI safe and fair for everyone and to fix problems.
- We do not sell your data and do not use your conversations for advertising.
3. Our AI technology partner
GCO AI is built by GCO on AI technology from Google (Gemini API). To create an answer, your question, the earlier messages of that conversation and the files you attach are sent securely to Google and processed under Google’s terms for paid API services. Payments are processed by PayPal or your bank under their own privacy policies.
4. Reporting an answer
If you report an answer, the GCO team can read that answer and the question before it, only to keep the service safe and to improve it.
5. Your choices
- Delete any conversation at any time — its files are deleted too.
- Own GCO AI account: delete it yourself at any time (tap your name → “Delete my GCO AI account”). Or ask us to delete your GCO AI data completely. Payment records may be kept as long as the law requires.
- Do not share passwords, PINs, OTP codes, card numbers or other people’s private information with GCO AI.
6. Security
Connections are encrypted (HTTPS). Files you send are stored in a private folder that only you can open through your account. Access to GCO’s systems is limited to authorised people.
7. Children
GCO AI is for people aged 18 and over (or the age set by GCO). We do not knowingly collect data from children.
8. Changes and contact
We may update this policy and will show the new version here. Questions or deletion requests: contact Global Centre One through the website or GCO Chat.
GCO Food
Last updated: October 2026. Controller: Global Faith Connection, LLC (GCO — Global Centre One), Wyoming, USA.
What we collect
- Account: name, e-mail, password (stored scrambled), phone number, language.
- Orders: restaurant, dishes, notes, delivery address and the map point you set, time, amounts, payment status, ratings.
- Couriers: name, phone, vehicle, confirmations (age, licence, insurance), and the location of the phone while online or on a delivery, so buyers can follow their food.
- Restaurants: business details, address, menu, photos, payout details.
- Payments: handled by Stripe, PayPal or Xendit. We receive a payment reference and the fee, never your full card number.
- Technical: login cookies, your language choice, and your cart and last address saved in your own browser.
Why we use it
To take, prepare, deliver and pay for orders; to give refunds; to keep the service safe and prevent fraud; to keep the records and tax reports the law requires; and to answer you.
Who sees what
- The Restaurant sees your first name, your order and — during the order — your phone number (and your address only if the Restaurant delivers itself).
- The Courier sees the restaurant and, after taking the delivery, your address, your first name and your phone number until the order is finished.
- You see the Courier’s first name, vehicle and position on the map while your food is on the way.
- Payment providers, our hosting company and, when required by law, tax or other authorities.
We do not sell your personal data.
Maps
Maps come from OpenStreetMap. When you search an address, the words you type are sent to the OpenStreetMap search service (Nominatim) to find the place.
How long we keep data
Order and payment records are kept as long as tax and accounting laws require (often 7 years). You can ask us to delete your account; we then delete or anonymise what we do not have to keep.
Your rights
You can see and correct your details in the app, and ask us for a copy, correction or deletion of your data. Depending on where you live (for example the EU, the UK, California or Indonesia) you may have more rights; we respect them.
Security
We use encrypted connections, scrambled passwords, limited access and checks on every request. No system is perfect; if something happens that affects you, we will tell you.
Children
GCO Food is not meant for children under 13. Accounts are for people 18+ or with a parent’s permission.
