Website Privacy Policy

Website Privacy Policy

La Jolla Country Day School created this Privacy Policy to demonstrate our firm commitment to your privacy. This Policy is your guide to the way we will handle information we learn or collect about you from your visit to our website. We are not responsible for the practices of persons, companies or websites that we do not manage or control. By using our website, you are deemed to have consented to the practices described in this Policy.


Information Collection, Use and Sharing

We are the sole owners of the information collected on our site. We will not obtain personally identifying information about you when you visit our site unless you choose to provide such information to us. Providing such information is strictly voluntary. We define “personally identifying information” as data that personally identifies you or allows us to contact you. Such information may include your name, email, phone number or address. 

We will always identify the reason/purpose for which information is being collected. We will use your information solely for fulfilling that purpose. If you encounter a screen, page or form that requests information you do not want to share with us, do not enter the information and do not proceed with that screen, page or form. We do not intend to share your information with any third party outside of our organization, other than as necessary to fulfill your request, protect our rights or as required by the law.

Unless you ask us not to, we may contact you via email in the future to inform you about school announcements, special events or changes to this Policy.


Your Access to and Control Over Information

You may opt out of any future contacts or request changes to your information from us at any time. You cannot remove yourself from our database, but you can prevent unwanted communication.

You can do the following at any time by contacting us via the email address or phone number given on our website:

  • See the type of data we have about you, if any.
  • Change/correct any data we have about you if you think it is incorrect or incomplete.
  • Have us delete any data we have about you.
  • Express any concern you have about our use of your data.


Security

We take precautions to protect your information. When you submit sensitive information via the website, your information is protected both online and offline.

Wherever we collect sensitive information (such as credit card data), that information is encrypted and transmitted to us in a secure way. You can verify this by looking for a lock icon in the address bar and looking for "https" at the beginning of the address of the Web page. We urge you to take proactive steps to secure your personal data, such as frequently changing your passwords.

While we use encryption to protect sensitive information transmitted online, we also protect your information offline. Only employees who need the information to perform a specific job (for example, billing) are granted access to your provided personally identifiable information. If you feel that we are not abiding by this Policy, you should contact us immediately via the email address or phone number provided on our website.

Although we take appropriate measures to safeguard against unauthorized disclosure of information, we cannot guarantee that information we collect will not be disclosed in a manner that is inconsistent with this Policy, as no server, computer or communications network or system, or data transmission over the internet can be guaranteed to be 100% secure.


Cookies

We use "cookies" on this site. A cookie is a piece of data stored on your hard drive when you visit our site to help us improve your access to our site and identify repeat visitors to our site. Cookies can only store personally identifying information that you supply.

Information monitored may include internet protocol (IP) addresses, geographic location of visitors (country, city), browser type, internet service provider (ISP), referring/exit pages, platform type, date/time stamp, time spent on pages, and keywords used to find our site via search engines. This information is anonymous and cannot be directly linked to individual users. We may use it to identify high-use or low-use areas of the site, pinpoint problem areas of the site, analyze broad demographic trends in our visitors, and make decisions about how to make it easier for people to find and navigate our website.

Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act Compliance

We encourage parents to monitor their children’s use of the internet and to help us protect their privacy by instructing them never to provide personal information on this website or any other site without a parent’s permission. We do not collect any personally identifiable information from anyone we know or suspect to be under 13 years of age.


Links

This website contains links to other sites. Please be aware that we are not responsible for the content or privacy practices of external organizations. We encourage our users to be aware when they leave our site and to review the privacy practices and policies of each external site that collects personally identifiable information.


Changes to this Policy

We reserve the right to make revisions to this Policy at any time with or without notice. Please refer to this page, as and when needed. Any substantial changes in the way we use your personal information will be posted on this site. Your use of the website following the posting of changes to this Policy will mean you accept those changes.
