3. How We Protect Your Information

We implement reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational safeguards designed to protect the personal information you provide through our website.

However, no method of transmission over the internet or method of electronic storage is completely secure. While we strive to protect your information, we cannot guarantee absolute security.

Any authorized service providers are expected to use personal information only for the services they perform for us and to protect it appropriately.

We do not sell or disclose student or prospective student personal information to third parties for their own independent marketing purposes.

5. Cookies and Website Analytics

Our website may use cookies or similar technologies to support site functionality, understand general website traffic patterns, and improve user experience.

These technologies may collect limited technical and usage information. You may be able to adjust your browser settings to refuse cookies, although some website features may not function properly as a result.

6. Third-Party Links

Our website may contain links to third-party websites, tools, scheduling systems, social media platforms, or other services. These third-party sites operate independently and have their own privacy policies and practices.

We are not responsible for the privacy practices, content, or security of third-party websites or services.

7. Online-Only Scope

This Privacy Policy applies to information collected through our website and other online forms or digital interactions that reference this Privacy Policy.

8. Your Choices

You may opt out of promotional email communications at any time by using the unsubscribe link included in the message.

Where text messaging is used, you may opt out by replying STOP, if available.

Opting out of promotional messages does not prevent us from sending important non-marketing communications related to your inquiry, application, admissions process, enrollment, or other administrative matters.
