Collection of your Personal Information

Â鶹ֱ²¥ may collect personally identifiable information, such as your name and contact information for the express purposes in which information is submitted (i.e., information regarding education programs and admissions purposes).

This information may include: Internet Protocol (IP) address, browser type, domain names, access times and referring website addresses. This information is used for the operation of the service, to maintain quality of the service, and to provide general statistics regarding use of the Â鶹ֱ²¥ website and all associated pages under the .EDU domain.

Â鶹ֱ²¥ encourages the review of privacy statements associated with websites you choose to link to from Â鶹ֱ²¥ so that you can understand how those websites collect, use and share your information. Â鶹ֱ²¥ is not responsible for the privacy statements or other content on websites outside of the Â鶹ֱ²¥ domain.

Use of your Personal Information

Â鶹ֱ²¥ collects and uses your personal information to operate its website(s) and to deliver the services you have requested.

Â鶹ֱ²¥ may also use your personally identifiable information to inform you of other products or services available from Â鶹ֱ²¥ for the express purposes of education services. Â鶹ֱ²¥ may also contact you via surveys to conduct research about your opinion of current services or of potential new services that may be offered.

Â鶹ֱ²¥ will never sell, rent or lease its customer lists to third parties.

Â鶹ֱ²¥ may share data with trusted partners to help perform statistical analysis, send you email or postal mail, provide customer support, or arrange for deliveries. All such third parties are prohibited from using your personal information except to provide these services to Â鶹ֱ²¥ and they are required to maintain the confidentiality of all information.

Â鶹ֱ²¥ may keep track of the websites and pages our users visit within the Â鶹ֱ²¥ domain in order to determine what Â鶹ֱ²¥ services are most popular/in-demand. This data is used to deliver customized content and advertising within Â鶹ֱ²¥ to customers whose behavior indicates that they are interested in a particular subject area.

Use of Cookies

The Â鶹ֱ²¥ website may use "cookies" to help you personalize your online experience. A cookie is a text file that is placed on your hard disk by a web page server. Cookies cannot be used to run programs or deliver viruses to your computer. Cookies are uniquely assigned to you, and can only be read by a web server in the domain that issued the cookie to you.

One of the primary purposes of cookies is to provide a convenience feature to save you time. The purpose of a cookie is to tell the Web server that you have returned to a specific page. For example, if you personalize Â鶹ֱ²¥ pages, or register with a Â鶹ֱ²¥ webpage or services, a cookie helps Â鶹ֱ²¥ to recall your specific information on subsequent visits. This simplifies the process of recording your personal information, such as billing addresses, shipping addresses, and so on. When you return to the same Â鶹ֱ²¥ website, the information you previously provided can be retrieved, so you can easily use the Â鶹ֱ²¥ features that you customized.

You have the ability to accept or decline cookies. Most Web browsers automatically accept cookies, but you can usually modify your browser setting to decline cookies if you prefer. If you choose to decline cookies, you may not be able to fully experience the interactive features of the Â鶹ֱ²¥ services or websites you visit.

Security of your Personal Information

Â鶹ֱ²¥ secures your personal information from unauthorized access, use or disclosure.
