Privacy Policy

Purpose

Verbiest College is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy describes information collected from visitors to Verbiest College’s websites and how that information is used.

Information Collected

Two main types of information are collected from visitors to Verbiest College websites. The first is information that visitors voluntarily supply by various methods such as submitting it into a form on a web page, or by uploading, mailing, or emailing documents to Verbiest College or its agents. Other information is collected automatically by various network and computer systems, including but not limited to the IP address, operating system, and web browser used to connect to our systems, the link followed to get to our website, and the time and day of the visit. Verbiest College websites also use cookies to add persistence and improve the quality of the user experience. 

Verbiest College websites may also contain links to non-Verbiest College websites. Verbiest College has no control over and cannot be held responsible for data collected by other websites or how it is used. Please remember that when you use a link to go from Verbiest College websites to another website, our privacy policy is no longer in effect. Your browsing and interaction on any other website, including websites that have a link on our website, is subject to that website’s own rules and policies. These destination links are provided only for your convenience, and as such, you access them at your own risk. 

Release of Information 

Verbiest College does not sell, trade, or rent your personally-identifiable information. We may release your information when required or allowed to do so by federal, state, or local regulations.
