COOKIES
Cookies are small, text files that a website can send to your browser
for storage on your hard drive. Cookies make your Internet use easier
by saving your status and preferences about a website. Most browsers
are initially set up to accept cookies, but you can change the setting
to refuse them or to be alerted when cookies are being sent. We do
not store e-mail addresses or passwords in any cookie we create because
of security concerns regarding cookies. Cookie acceptance does not
interfere with your ability to interact with our Website, although
allowing cookies does help streamline many of possible functions performed
on this site. You may read more about cookies at www.cookiecentral.com.
Individuals who use the Websites need to accept cookies in order to
use all of the features and functionality of the Websites.
NEW TECHNOLOGY
The use of technology on the Internet, including cookies and web beacons,
is rapidly evolving, as is Townsend-Outlook Publishing’s use
of new and evolving technology. As a result, Townsend-Outlook Publishing
strongly encourages individuals to revisit this policy for any updates
regarding its use of technology.
INFORMATION YOU GIVE US
We collect information from individuals when you voluntarily provide
us information to help in your college selection process. You can choose
not to provide certain information, but then you might not be able
to take advantage of many of our features or be eligible to win prizes
or receive special offers. The information that you are asked to provide
may include your name, address, e-mail address, street address, zip
code, telephone numbers, birth date, gender, salary range, education,
marital status, occupation, employment status, personal and online
interests and other information that may be requested from time to
time.
Townsend-Outlook Publishing or a third party may offer you incentives
in exchange for providing the requested information. We may also collect
information, including what web browser you are using and your Internet
Protocol (IP) address.
INFORMATION FROM THIRD PARTIES
We may collect your information when you provide it to a third party,
and we subsequently purchase, license or lawfully acquire the information
from that party. The information that we collect may include your name,
address, e-mail address, street address, zip code, telephone numbers,
birth date, gender, salary range, education, marital status, occupation,
employment status, personal and online interests and other information
that you may have provided to the third party. When receiving data
from outside sources, we seek assurances that the party has the right
to transfer the information to us, that the data was not improperly
obtained and that we have the right to provide offers from advertisers
to the individuals whose information is provided to us. We only obtain
your address from Websites other than our own, where our name appears,
along with notice to you that by signing up, you will be receiving
promotional and marketing messages from us, and a link to this privacy
policy.
OTHER INFORMATION PROVIDED TO US
Other times that we may obtain information from you include (1) when
you make a claim for a prize or seek to redeem an incentive offered
by us or a third party, (2) when you request assistance through our
customer service department or (3) when you voluntarily subscribe to
a service or newsletter provided by us or a third party. We may also
receive information about you from a third party or from other sources
including information located in public databases.
COOKIES, WEB BEACONS AND OTHER INFORMATION COLLECTED USING TECHNOLOGY
A cookie is a small file that is placed on your hard drive that allows
us to analyze our Website effectiveness and identify you with the corresponding
data that we have in our database. You are always free to decline cookies
if your web browser permits, although in that case you may not be able
to use all of the features and functionality of our Websites.
WEB BEACON
Web pages may contain electronic images (called a "single-pixel
GIF" or "web beacon") that allow a web site to count
users who have visited that page or to access certain cookies. We use
web beacons to track the effectiveness of a promotional campaign and
to transfer an individual’s unique user identification (often
in the form of a cookie) and associate your updated information into
our database. Our practice is to include web beacons in HTML-formatted
e-mail messages (messages that include graphics) that we send directly
or through third parties in order to determine which e-mail messages
were opened and to note whether a message was acted upon. In general,
any electronic image viewed as part of a web page, including an ad
banner, can act as a web beacon.
NEW TECHNOLOGY
Since the use of new technology including cookies, web beacons, and
other technology is rapidly evolving, as is our use of new and evolving
technology, we may change or use additional or new technology from
time to time. You are encouraged to visit this page for any updates.
INFORMATION REGARDING CHILDREN
We will never knowingly collect any personal information about children
under the age of 13. If you are under the age of 18 but at least 13
years of age, you may use our Websites only under the supervision of
a parent or legal guardian who agrees to be bound by our Privacy Policy.
If we obtain actual knowledge that we have collected personal information
about a child under the age of 13, that information will be immediately
deleted from our database. Because we do not collect such information,
to the best of our knowledge, we have no such information to use or
to disclose to any third parties. We have designed this policy in order
to comply with the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA).
AGREEMENT
Your use of this site signifies your agreement with Townsend-Outlook
Publishing Privacy’s Policy. We reserve the right to modify,
add, or remove parts of the policy at any time. If we decide to materially
change this Privacy Policy, we will post such changes on this page.
Please check this page periodically for changes. |
