KAPLAN K12 PRIVACY POLICY

This is the Privacy Policy for the Web site of KAPLAN K12 Learning Services ("KAPLAN K12"), located at www.kaplank12.com ("Site"), a business division of KAPLAN, Inc. Your privacy is very important to us, and we are committed to protecting it. We understand that our visitors need to be in control of their personal data. This Privacy Policy explains how and why we collect personal data from you and how we use it. Our Privacy Policy is designed to ensure that you are aware of how your personal data is being used. In addition, the Privacy Policy provides you with choices about that use.

By visiting the Site or submitting your personal-identification information to us, you accept the terms described in this Privacy Policy. From time to time we may modify these rules. We will notify you of any significant change by posting a notice on both our home page and our information-collection forms. Your continued use of the Site after any modification indicates your agreement to the new terms.

Collection and Use of Personal Data
Personal-Identification Information

When you request information, we will use our online forms to collect personal-identification information: your name, postal address, email address, fax, and school district ("personal data"). In addition, if you send us an email or communicate with us offline, we may collect the personal data that you voluntarily provide at that time.

We may use your personal data in the following ways:

  • for the purpose for which you specifically provided the personal data (for example, to request a program demo or to respond to a specific inquiry)
  • to send surveys or questionnaires so that we can learn more about our customers' needs and interests
  • to send you an online newsletter and information about new products or services that we think might interest you (unless you opt out)

If you do not want us to send you surveys and questionnaires, or to provide you with information about our other products and services, you can opt out of receiving this information by following the steps described below in the section entitled Your Ability To Choose.

Anonymous Information

You can visit most pages on the Site without giving us any personal data. Your visit may automatically provide us with anonymous data that is not linked to your personal data, such as your IP (Internet Protocol) address, browser type, operating system, domain name, access times, and referring Web site addresses.

We use your anonymous data to obtain general statistics regarding the use of the Site and its specific Web pages and to evaluate how our visitors use and navigate our Web site on an aggregate basis. We do not link your anonymous data with your personal data.

We use a service provider to track and to analyze non-personal data, such as usage and volume of statistical information from site visitors. This anonymous data will not be linked to your personal data.

In an effort to provide you with the most relevant Web site content and marketing materials, we may also use embedded pixel technologies to help track both site usage and the response to our marketing campaigns. Again, the anonymous information we capture through this mechanism is not linked to your personal data.

Sharing with Third Parties

We do not share personal information except to fulfill a request for information or to deliver a purchased program. Personal data will not be shared with third parties for their promotional purposes.

Your Ability To Choose

You can let us know if you do not want us to send you information by taking the following steps:

  • To stop further delivery of our newsletter or informational emails, click the opt-out link at the bottom of these messages.
  • To let us know about your other communication preferences, either call 1-888-KAPLAN8 or send an email to info@kaplank12.com. Please identify all the email addresses, postal addresses, and phone numbers that you may have submitted to us, so we can ensure that we respect your wishes.
Security

KAPLAN K12 is concerned with the security of your personal data. To keep that data secure, we restrict unauthorized access through protective policies, procedures, and technical measures. In addition, KAPLAN K12 uses standard security protocols.

Links to Other Web Sites

This Site may contain links to other Web sites, including other KAPLAN company sites. This Privacy Policy covers only this Site and not these other sites, including the other KAPLAN sites. Be sure to look for the privacy policies that govern your use of these other Web sites.
