Privacy Policy

Where We Collect It From. We may collect information about you from various sources, such as: 

• Directly from you when you use the Services, such as when you register for an account, access certain features or content, or order products; and 
• Our parents, affiliates, service providers, business partners, and other third parties. 

What We Collect. The information we collect about you may include, without limitation: 

• information that may be used, alone or in connection with other information, to identify you (collectively “personal information”); 
• demographic information about you but does not specifically identify you; 
• information about the devices you use to access the Services; 
• dates, times, and duration of use of the Services (including whether you are a repeat or first time visitor); and 
• information on actions you have taken when using the Services. 

Automatic Collection. When you use the Services, we may also collect certain information by automated means, such as cookies and web beacons. A “cookie” is a text file that websites send to a visitor’s computer or other Internet-connected device to uniquely identify the visitor’s browser or to store information or settings in the browser. A “web beacon,” also known as an Internet tag, pixel tag, or clear GIF, is used to transmit information about actions of the user opening the page or email containing the beacon back to a web server. We may also use third-party analytics tools (such as Google Analytics) that collect information about use of the Services and user traffic. 

Statistical Information. The information we collect automatically is statistical data and may include personal information. It helps us to improve and personalize our Services, including by enabling us to identify and authenticate users. 

A "Do Not Track" signal (DNT) prevents web applications from tracking you. You can learn more about DNT at https://allaboutdnt.com.  

Your web browser may let you choose your preference as to whether you want to allow the collection of information about your online activities over time and across different websites or online services. At this time, the Services do not respond to the preferences you may have set in your web browser regarding such collection of your information, and the Services may continue to collect information in the manner described in this Privacy Policy.

We may use cookies alone or in conjunction with web beacons or other tracking technologies to collect information about you when you use the Services, such as your IP address, pages you visit, and when you view a page or open an email in which a tag is embedded. Some tracking technologies are served by third parties. These third parties may use this information to provide you with interest-based (behavioral) advertising or other targeted content and for other purposes. We do not control these third parties’ tracking technologies or how they may be used. The information practices of these third parties are governed by their own privacy policies and are not covered by this Privacy Policy. If you have any questions about an advertisement or other targeted content, you should contact the third party directly.

We may use information we obtain about you to: 

• Process orders you place and complete other transactions you have requested using the Services, and provide you with products and services you request; 
• Send you information or materials you request; 
• Maintain a record of your purchases and other transactions using the Services; 
• Respond to your questions and comments and provide customer support; 
• Communicate with you about products, services, offers, and promotions; 
• Operate, evaluate, and improve our business and the products and services we offer; 
• Analyze and enhance our marketing communications and strategies; 
• Analyze trends and statistics regarding use of the Services and transactions conducted using the Services; 
• Protect against and prevent fraud, unauthorized transactions, claims, and other liabilities, and manage risk exposure, including by identifying potential hackers and other unauthorized users; 
• Enforce our Terms of Sale and other agreements; and 
• Comply with relevant legal requirements and industry standards. 

Combined Information. We may combine the information we collect with publicly available information and information we receive from our parent or affiliate companies, business partners, and other third parties. We may use that combined information to enhance and personalize your experience with us, to communicate with you about products, services, and events that may be of interest to you, for promotional purposes, and for other purposes described in this Privacy Policy. 

Other Uses. We also may use the information we obtain about you in other ways for which we provide specific notice at the time of collection. 

Who We Disclose To. We may disclose aggregated information about our users, and information that does not identify any individual user, without restriction.

We may disclose personal information about you: 

• To contractors, service providers, and other third parties we use to support our business; 
• To comply with any court order, law, or legal process, including to respond to any government or regulatory request; 
• To enforce or apply our Terms of Sale and other agreements; 
• If we believe disclosure is necessary or appropriate to protect the rights, property, or safety of free course library, users of the Services, or others; 
• To third parties to market their products or services to you if you have not opted out of these promotions; and 
• With your consent. 

We also reserve the right to transfer your personal information to a buyer or other transferee in the event of a merger, divestiture, restructuring, reorganization, dissolution, sale, or other transfer of some or all of our assets, equity or similar transaction.  Should such a sale, merger, or transfer occur, we will use reasonable efforts to direct the transferee to use your personal information in a manner that is consistent with our Privacy Policy.

We have implemented measures intended to protect your personal information from accidental loss and from unauthorized access, use, alteration and disclosure. All information you provide to us is stored on secure servers behind firewalls. Any payment transactions will be encrypted using SSL technology. Please note that the electronic transmission of information is not completely secure. We cannot guarantee that the security measures we have in place to safeguard personal information will never be defeated or fail, or that such measures will always be sufficient or effective. Any transmission of personal information is at your own risk. 

We offer you the following choices about the information we collect from you and how we communicate with you:

Most browsers will tell you how to stop accepting new cookies, how to be notified when you receive a new cookie, and how to disable existing cookies. Please note, however, that without cookies you may not be able to take full advantage of all of the features of the Services.
