Privacy Policy
Privacy Policy
Your privacy is important to us and we have prepared this Privacy Policy to explain to you how we collect, use, and share information we obtain through your use of the Internet sites, applications and services (“website”) that are operated by, controlled by or are affiliated with the French International School of Philadelphia (collectively, “we,” “us” or “our”).
This Privacy Policy does not govern our use of any information you provide to us when you call us, write to us, or communicate with us in any manner other than through the website. Because the Internet is global, information about you that we collect or that you submit may be transferred to, processed in, and held in countries including the United States other than the one in which you reside. By using the website, you explicitly consent to such use of your information and agree to the terms of this Privacy Policy.
1. Information We Automatically Collect
We automatically collect certain information to help us understand how our users use the website (which we will refer to in this Privacy Policy collectively as “Usage Data”). For example, each time you visit the website we may automatically collect your IP address, browser and computer type, access time, the Web page you came from, the URL you go to next, and the Web page(s) that you access during your visit.
2. Information You Choose To Submit
You can visit the website without telling us who you are or revealing any information by which someone, other than us could personally identify you (which we will refer to in this Privacy Policy collectively as “Personal Information”).
If, however, you wish to register to become a subscriber to our website, you may be required to provide certain personal information (e.g., your name and e-mail address), and we may ask that you also provide a user name and password for access to certain features of the website. We use your personal information to fulfill your requests for information, to improve our website, and to contact you from time to time.
3. Our Information Sharing Practices
(a) Generally. Except as otherwise described in this section of our Privacy Policy, we will never share your usage data, personal information, non-personal information, or shared information (which we will refer to in this Privacy Policy collectively as “User Information”) with any third party, except for our successor or assigns, without your permission.
(b) Service Providers. From time to time, we may enter into relationships with third parties who provide services to us (e.g., data management and storage services or credit card processing services). In those circumstances, we disclose user information that is necessary for such service providers to perform those services and require that they maintain the confidentiality of such User Information.
(c) Other Disclosure Scenarios. Notwithstanding anything in this Privacy Policy to the contrary, we reserve the right, and you hereby expressly authorize us, to share any User Information: (1) in response to subpoenas, court orders, or legal process, or to establish, protect, or exercise our legal rights or defend against legal claims; (2) if we believe it is necessary in order to investigate, prevent, or take action regarding illegal activities, fraud, or situations involving potential threats to the safety of any person or property; (3) if we believe it is necessary to investigate, prevent, or take action regarding significant abuse of the website’ infrastructure or the Internet in general (such as voluminous spamming, denial of service attacks, or attempts to compromise the security of information); (4) to our parent company, subsidiaries, joint ventures, or other companies under common control with us (in which case we will require such entities to honor this Privacy Policy); and (5) if we are acquired by or merged with another entity.
4. Modifying and Deleting Your Personal Information
If you would like to modify or delete from our database any User Information you previously submitted to us, please let us know by contacting our administrative staff.
5. Security
We have implemented reasonable measures to help protect your User Information from loss, misuse, or unauthorized access or disclosure. Unfortunately, however, no data transmission over the Internet can be guaranteed to be 100% secure. As a result, while we strive to protect your User Information, we cannot guarantee its security.
6. Links
The website may contain links to other websites. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of any such other website and urge you to review such practices prior to submitting any information to such websites.
7. Changes
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. If under any such update we make any material change to the way in which we treat your user information, we will inform you of such change by posting a notice on relevant areas of the website. Any updated version of this Privacy Policy will be effective as of the date set forth therein.
