麻豆社区 collects information via 麻豆社区 websites that falls into one of two categories: personally identifiable information and non-personally identifiable information.听Personally identifiable information is any information that personally identifies you or from which you could be identified. 麻豆社区 collects personally identifiable information whenever you voluntarily submit it to 麻豆社区 websites, including your name, email, mailing address, telephone number, plus your preferences regarding 麻豆社区 services.听
Non-personally identifiable information is information that is not directly tied to a specific user, such as the number of people who visit 麻豆社区 websites from various states.听Unless you take steps to browse the Internet anonymously, or听, 麻豆社区, like most institutions and organizations on the Internet, tracks web browsing patterns to inform understanding of how 麻豆社区 websites are being used. Generic information is collected through the use of 鈥渃ookies,鈥� which are text files placed on your computer, to evaluate usage patterns so that 麻豆社区 can improve both content and distribution. You may refuse the use of cookies by selecting the appropriate settings on your browser; however, doing so may prevent you from using the full functionality of all 麻豆社区 websites. The generic information 麻豆社区 collects is based on IP address, which is the location of a computer or network, and is not linked to your specific email address in any of the reports or other material compiled by 麻豆社区. 麻豆社区 will not associate your IP address and web usage data with any other information held by 麻豆社区 that can specifically identify you unless required to do so by law.
By providing information to 麻豆社区 through its websites you acknowledge that, where permitted by federal or state law, 麻豆社区 may use this information for the express purposes for which the information was provided, which may include to:
麻豆社区 works with many vendors and contractors who assist 麻豆社区 with its day-to-day affairs. Information that you provide to 麻豆社区 or which 麻豆社区 automatically collects is used or shared with these organizations for the express purposes for which the information was collected or as otherwise expressed in this Privacy Statement. 麻豆社区 vendors and contractors are only permitted to use personal information for the express purposes permitted in their agreements with 麻豆社区. Otherwise, personally identifiable information is not released to third parties unless permitted by applicable law, including in instances where the information needs to be disclosed to protect the safety and security of the 麻豆社区 community or 麻豆社区 property, or where 麻豆社区 is legally compelled by law or judicial order.
麻豆社区 websites may provide chat rooms, forums, message boards, and news groups for their users. Any information that is disclosed in these areas may become public information and a user should therefore exercise caution when deciding to disclose one鈥檚 personal information in such places. Chat sessions and discussion forums may be logged.
If a user of 麻豆社区 websites is under the age of thirteen, such user is not authorized to provide the 麻豆社区 with personally identifiable information, and 麻豆社区 will not use any such information in its database or other data collection activities. 麻豆社区 appreciates cooperation with this federally mandated requirement. Users under the age of thirteen and their parents or guardians are cautioned that the collection of personally identifiable information volunteered by unauthorized children online or by e-mail will be treated the same as information given by an adult until 麻豆社区 becomes aware that the user is under the age of thirteen and such information may be subject to public access.
As a public institution, and instrumentality of the State of Utah, 麻豆社区 is subject to the Government Records Access and Management Act of the Utah Code, Section 63G-2-101 et seq., 1953, as may be amended (鈥淕RAMA鈥�).听 This means that records, in all forms including email, provided to 麻豆社区 are subject to public disclosure, unless the record is designated by law as confidential or not a public record.
麻豆社区 implements appropriate technical and organizational security measures to protect your information when you transmit it to us that ensure a level of security appropriate to the risks presented by the processing and the nature of the data to be protected. While 麻豆社区 strives to protect your information, 麻豆社区 cannot ensure or warrant the security of such information.
If a user has questions about this Privacy Statement or believes that the user鈥檚 personal information has been released without consent, please send an e-mail to: compliance@uvu.edu.
