Privacy Policy
Illinois Institute of Technology's Center for Professional Development respects the privacy of the people who visit and submit information to our web site and we follow the following privacy policy. If you have any questions about this policy, please email webmaster@cpd.iit.edu.

What we do with the data we collect
You don't have to give us personal information to visit our web site. We use the contact information you voluntarily provide to respond to your questions and requests and, only at your request, to put you on a mailing list so that we can notify you of relevant news. Except as noted below, we don't share this information with anyone outside of Illinois Institute of Technology. If you send us an e-mail message or fill out a web-based form with a question or comment that contains personally identifying information, that information will be used to respond to the request and analyze trends. In some cases we may redirect your message to another person who is in a better position to answer your question. Such information is not used in any way that would reveal personally identifying information to anyone outside the university unless we are legally compelled to do so in connection with law enforcement investigations or other legal proceedings. We may collect the following pieces of personal information: your email address, name, social security number, date of birth, gender, mailing address, and phone number. If you are applying for admission or making a request for transfer credit you may also be required to provide information related to your prior school, work, or military service. In some cases you may be required to provide credit card information for billing purposes. If you choose not to provide this personal information, you won't be able to receive some of the services this Web site offers.

If you have provided us with a mailing address, you may receive periodic mailings from us with information on new courses, programs and services or upcoming events. If you do not wish to receive such mailings, please let us know by sending email to us at the above address or calling us at the telephone number or writing to us at the address found on the bottom left of this page. Please provide us with your exact name and address.

We use your internet address (IP address) to monitor usage of the site, but we do not attach any personal data to that IP address. We are interested in tracking the general behavior of visitors to our site, not the behavior profile of specific users. We track the general behavior of users on the site in order to determine what information is requested and how we can make it easier to find in the future.

We may use "cookies" to ensure that you obtain the information you request. The cookies that we pass you are anonymous. They do not reveal your personal identity. They are not revealed to other web sites, nor can they capture private data. Rather, these cookies establish a user session and allow our server to efficiently exchange data with you. Any data captured are for internal use only and are not shared with a third party.

Web Use
As a WWW user, keep in mind that whenever you give out personal information online, information can be collected and used by people you don't even know. While Illinois Institute of Technology's Center for Professional Development strives to protect its users' personal information and privacy, it cannot guarantee the security of any information you disclose online and you do so at your own risk. Illinois Institute of Technology's Center for Professional Development's policy does not extend to anything that is inherent in the operation of the Internet, and therefore beyond our control, and is not to be applied in any manner contrary to applicable law or governmental regulation.

Illinois Institute of Technology's Center for Professional Development maintains our Web site on an on-going basis, but it does not represent, guarantee or warrant that all information provided is accurate, complete, current or suitable for the viewer's purposes. Illinois Institute of Technology specifically disclaims any and all liability for claims or damages that may result from our Web site or information contained therein, including any web sites maintained by third parties and linked to Illinois Institute of Technology's Center for Professional Development web sites, for which responsibility lies with the entity providing the information.
