IVY EDUCATION Privacy Policy

Your privacy is critically important to us. At IVYEdu we have a few fundamental principles:

• We don’t ask you for personal information unless we truly need it. (We can’t stand services that ask you for things like your gender or income level for no apparent reason.)
• We don’t share your personal information with anyone except to comply with the law, develop our products, or protect our rights.
• We don’t store personal information on our servers unless required for the on-going operation of one of our services.
• In our products, we aim to make it as simple as possible for you to control what’s visible to the public, seen by students, kept private, and permanently deleted.

If you have questions about deleting or correcting your personal data please contact our administrator.

Ivy Education, LLC (“IVYEdu”) operates websiteof www.IvyEdUsa.com . It is IVYEdu’s policy to respect your privacy regarding any information we may collect while operating our websites.

Website Visitors

Like most website operators, IVYEdu collects non-personally-identifying information of the sort that web browsers and servers typically make available, such as the browser type, language preference, referring site, and the date and time of each visitor request. IVYEdu’s purpose in collecting non-personally identifying information is to better understand how IVYEdu’s visitors use its website. From time to time, IVYEdu may release non-personally-identifying information in the aggregate, e.g., by publishing a report on trends in the usage of its website.

IVYEdu also collects potentially personally-identifying information like Internet Protocol (IP) addresses for logged in users and for users leaving comments on WordPress.com blogs. IVYEdu only discloses logged in user and commenter IP addresses under the same circumstances that it uses and discloses personally-identifying information as described below, except that blog commenter IP addresses are visible and disclosed to the administrators of the blog where the comment was left.

Gathering of Personally-Identifying Information

Certain visitors to IVYEdu’s websites choose to interact with IVYEdu in ways that require IVYEdu to gather personally-identifying information. The amount and type of information that IVYEdu gathers depends on the nature of the interaction. For example, we ask visitors who sign up for a teaching member at www.IvyEdUsa.com to provide information as necessary the personal and teaching career information required to process those applications. In each case, IVYEdu collects such information only insofar as is necessary or appropriate to fulfill the purpose of the visitor’s interaction with IVYEdu. IVYEdu does not disclose personally-identifying information other than as described below. And visitors can always refuse to supply personally-identifying information, with the caveat that it may prevent them from engaging in certain website-related activities.

Aggregated Statistics

IVYEdu may collect statistics about the behavior of visitors to its websites. IVYEdu may display this information publicly or provide it to others. However, IVYEdu does not disclose personally-identifying information other than as described below.

Protection of Certain Personally-Identifying Information

IVYEdu discloses potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information only to those of its employees, contractors and affiliated organizations that (i) need to know that information in order to process it on IVYEdu’s behalf or to provide services available at IVYEdu’s websites, and (ii) that have agreed not to disclose it to others. Some of those employees, contractors and affiliated organizations may be located outside of your home country; by using IVYEdu’s websites, you consent to the transfer of such information to them. IVYEdu will not rent or sell potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information to anyone. Other than to its employees, contractors and affiliated organizations, as described above, IVYEdu discloses potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information only in response to a subpoena, court order or other governmental request, or when IVYEdu believes in good faith that disclosure is reasonably necessary to protect the property or rights of IVYEdu, third parties or the public at large. If you are a registered user of an IVYEdu website and have supplied your email address, IVYEdu may occasionally send you an email to tell you about new features, solicit your feedback, or just keep you up to date with what’s going on with IVYEdu and our products. We primarily use our website to communicate this type of information, so we expect to keep this type of email to a minimum. If you send us a request (for example via a support email or via one of our feedback mechanisms), we reserve the right to publish it in order to help us clarify or respond to your request or to help us support other users. IVYEdu takes all measures reasonably necessary to protect against the unauthorized access, use, alteration or destruction of potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information.

IVYEdu visitors who do not wish to have cookies placed on their computers should set their browsers to refuse cookies before using IVYEdu’s websites, with the drawback that certain features of IVYEdu’s websites may not function properly without the aid of cookies.

Business Transfers

You acknowledge that such transfers may occur, and that any acquirer of IVYEdu may continue to use your personal information as set forth in this policy.
