This policy explains what types of personal information will be gathered when you visit the Goucher College website, and how this information will be used.
Some of the college’s departments and centers have more detailed privacy policies or provide additional information relating to their activities, which will supersede or supplement this Privacy Policy. See:
On some parts of the website you may encounter forms that ask you to provide personal information in order to enable the provision of certain services. For example, you may provide information to complete an application for admission or a credit card transaction; to complete a donation form or a request for information form; or to request a Goucher publication. You may provide a name, email address, residential address, phone number and other personal data.
By supplying this information you are consenting to the college holding and using it for the purposes for which it was provided. Information provided will be kept for as long as is necessary to fulfil that purpose.
Personal information that you provide to the college will only be used for the purposes stated when the information is requested.
We may reveal personally identifiable information about you to unaffiliated third parties:
Personal information will not be sold to third parties, or provided to direct marketing companies or other such organizations without your permission.
We may share information that does not personally identify you without restriction.
Information that you provide to us will ordinarily be stored on our secure servers. However, we do work with third party contractors, some of whom host and operate certain features of the website. Accordingly, information that we collect from you may be maintained onsite or offsite “in the cloud.” That information may be processed by staff who work for us or for one of our contractors. By submitting personal information, you agree to this transfer, storing and processing. We will take all steps reasonably necessary to ensure that your data is treated securely and in accordance with this Privacy Policy.
