This Privacy Policy describes how Ricketts Great Books College® (“we”, “us” or “our”) collects, uses, and protects information when you visit the rickettsgreatbookscollege.org website (the “Website”). By using the Website, you agree to the practices described in this policy.
Information you provide. When you submit our contact form, we collect the information you enter, such as your name, email address, and message. We use it solely to respond to your inquiry and to communicate with you about the College and its programs.
Information collected automatically. We use Google Analytics to understand how visitors use the Website. Google Analytics collects information such as pages visited, time on site, approximate geographic region, device and browser type, and referring website. This data is aggregated and does not directly identify you.
The Website uses cookies and similar technologies set by Google Analytics to measure site usage. You can control or delete cookies through your browser settings, and you can opt out of Google Analytics using Google's browser opt-out tool. Disabling cookies does not prevent you from using the Website.
Videos on the Website are streamed from Vimeo. When you play a video, Vimeo may collect usage information and set cookies subject to Vimeo's Privacy Policy.
We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information. We share information only with service providers that help us operate the Website — our hosting provider (WP Engine), Google Analytics, and Vimeo — and only as needed to provide those services, or where required by law.
We retain contact-form submissions only as long as needed to handle your inquiry and maintain our records, and analytics data for the retention period configured in Google Analytics.
You may request access to, correction of, or deletion of the personal information we hold about you. To exercise these rights, contact us at [email protected].
The Website is intended for prospective students, their families, and the general public. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided us personal information, contact us and we will delete it.
The Website is served over HTTPS, and we take reasonable administrative and technical measures to protect the information we collect. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The effective date above reflects the latest revision. Material changes will be posted on this page.
