ThinkSharp's Privacy Policy
ThinkSharp's
Privacy Policy describes what information we collect from you when you visit this
site, and how we use this information. Please read this Privacy Policy carefully
so that you understand our privacy practices
The
Information ThinkSharp Collects
ThinkSharp collects two
kinds of information on this site:
(1) registration information that is voluntarily
supplied by visitors to this site who enroll in our programs, and
(2) tracking
information that is automatically collected as visitors navigate through this
site.
If you choose to register in one or more of our programs, you
will be required to provide certain enrollment information that we need to process
your application for enrollment. This site automatically recognizes and records
certain non-personal information, including the name of the domain and host from
which you access the Internet (for example,interland.com); the Internet protocol
(IP) address of the computer you are using; the browser software you use and the
operating system; the date and time you access this site; and the Internet address
of the web site from which you linked directly to this site. We may also collect
tracking information through the use of cookies, which place certain identifying
information on your computer to facilitate your future access.
This site
also includes links to other websites hosted by third parties. When you access
any such website from this site, use of any information you provide will be governed
by the privacy policy of the operator of the site you are visiting.
How ThinkSharp Uses This Information
We do not sell, trade, or lease your personal information to others. We share
your registration information with ThinkSharp Online, which will use it as a part
of your enrollment in programs offered through ThinkSharp. In addition, we may
provide aggregated statistical data to reputable third-party vendors, but this
data will include no personal identifying information. We may release account
information when we believe, in good faith, that such release is reasonably necessary
to (i) comply with law, (ii)
enforce or apply the terms of any of our user agreements or (iii)
protect the rights, property or safety of ThinkSharp, ThinkSharp Online, our users,
or others.
How ThinkSharp
Protects Your Information
When you access your personal information, we use a secure
server. The secure server software (SSL) encrypts all information
you input before it is sent to us. Furthermore, all of the
data we collect is protected against unauthorized access.
As effective as encryption technology is, however, no security
system is completely impenetrable, so we cannot guarantee
the absolute security of our database, nor can we guarantee
that information you supply won't be intercepted while being
transmitted to us over the internet.
Your Rights Under the Family Education Rights and
Privacy Act (FERPA)
If you enroll in a program offered through
ThinkSharp, personally identifiable information you provide us, other than basic
directory information, or that we or ThinkSharp, Inc. create that pertains to
you, may be protected from disclosure under the provisions of the federal Family
Education Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA). You may also have specific rights with
regard to accessing this information and correcting any errors. For further information
respecting the applicability of FERPA and your rights under it, please contact
us at helpdesk.
Your Consent
By using this website, you consent to the collection and use of this information
by ThinkSharp and by ThinkSharp Inc. for the purpose of your enrollment in programs
offered through ThinkSharp. If we decide to change our privacy policy, we will
post those changes on this page before the changes take effect. Of course, our
use of information gathered while the current policy is in effect will always
be consistent with the current policy, even if we change that policy later. If
you have questions about this Privacy Policy, please contact us at helpdesk.
