Our Privacy Policy was developed as an extension of our commitment to 
combine the highest-quality products and services with the highest 
level of integrity. It is designed to assist you in understanding how 
we collect, use and safeguard the personal information you provide and 
to help you in making informed decisions when using our site, products 
and services. This Privacy Policy will be continually assessed against 
new technologies, business practices and our customers’ needs.

Access to and use of this web site is available only to United States 
residents who can form legally binding contracts under applicable law. 
If you do not qualify, you may not use the web site. In compliance 
with the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act of 1998, no one 
under 13 years of age can use the web site. If you are a minor between 
the ages of 13 and 18, you may use the site only in conjunction with

As described below, some of your personally identifiable information 
will be used by us and shared with third parties. By using the web 
site, you expressly consent to our use of your personal information 
and also to the disclosure to and use of this information by third 
parties. You acknowledge that communications to, from and through this 
web site are not confidential. You agree that by submitting

What information do we collect?
We collect personally identifiable information you voluntarily choose 
to disclose and aggregate information that is automatically collected 
when you visit the web site.

Personally identifiable information refers to information that tells 
us specifically who you are and is collected when you choose to 
request information from a school that is listed on the site. This 
information can include your name, current email address, programs of 
interest and other information you choose to provide. If you choose to 
correspond with us through email, we may retain your email address and 
messages together with our responses.

Aggregate information is automatically provided by your computer and 
cannot be tied back to you as a specific individual. Examples include:

referral data (the web sites you visited just before and just after 
the web site)
date and time of your visits
pages viewed and time spent at the web site
browser and platform type (e.g., a Netscape browser on a Macintosh platform)
Internet Protocol (IP) address. An IP address is a number that is 
automatically assigned to your computer on the Internet.

How do we use the personal information that you provide to us?
Broadly speaking, your personal information is used to help match your 
interests with schools that provide the training you seek. If your 
search yields no results, we may store your information and send you 
updates if and when programs you specified do become available. We 
also use personal information for purposes of administering our 
business activities, providing customer service, and making other 
products and services available to our customers and prospective 
customers. Occasionally, we may also use the information we collect to 
notify you about important changes to the web site, new services and 
special offers we think you will find valuable.

Sharing information with third parties
We offer a number of third-party services from the site through a 
Co-Brand Service Provider and – if you choose to use these optional 
services – may share some of your personally identifiable information 
with the Co-Brand Service Provider offering such services. In 
addition, we may enter into strategic marketing alliances with third 
parties such as advertisers, businesses, partners and subsidiaries who 
may be given access to personal information, including your name, 
address and email, for the purpose of providing you with information 
about products and services that may be of interest to you. We cannot 
and do not make any representations about the practices and policies 
of these companies, and they are not subject to our Privacy Policy.

How do we protect your information?
We utilize encryption/security software to safeguard the 
confidentiality of personal information we collect. This software 
provides a limited degree of protection against unauthorized access or 
disclosure, as well as accidental loss, alteration or destruction.

Do we comply with legally compelled disclosure of information?
We may release any private information about you that we possess when 
we believe release is appropriate to comply with the law; to enforce 
or apply our Privacy Policy and/or other agreements; or to protect the 
rights, property or safety of us, the site users or others.
