Information Collection
Financial Aid Center Educational Services is the sole owner of
the information collected on easyaid.com.
Log Files
Like most standard Web site servers we use log files. This includes
internet protocol (IP) addresses, browser type, internet service
provider (ISP), referring/exit pages, platform type, date/time
stamp, and number of clicks to analyze trends, administer the
site, track user’s movement in the aggregate, and gather
broad demographic information for aggregate use. IP addresses,
etc. are not linked to personally identifiable information.
Communications from the Site
Newsletter
If a user wishes to subscribe to our newsletter, we ask for contact
information such as name and email address. Out of respect for
our users privacy we provide a way to opt-out of these communications.
Please see the Choice and Opt-out sections.
Service Announcements
On rare occasions it is necessary to send out a strictly service
related announcement. For instance, if our service is temporarily
suspended for maintenance we might send users an email. Generally,
users may not opt-out of these communications, though they can
deactivate their account. However, these communications are not
promotional in nature.
Sharing
Legal Disclaimer
Though we make every effort to preserve user privacy, we may need
to disclose personal information when required by law wherein
we have a good-faith belief that such action is necessary to comply
with a current judicial proceeding, a court order or legal process
served on our Web site.
We DO NOT Share Personal Information
with Third Parties
Business Transitions
In the event easyaid.com goes through a
business transition, such as a merger, being acquired by another
company, or selling a portion of its assets, users’ personal
information will, in most instances, be part of the assets transferred.
Users who no longer wish to receive
our newsletters and promotional communications may opt-out of
receiving these communications by replying to unsubscribe in the
subject line in the email or email us at info@easyaid.com.
Links
This Web site contains links to other sites. Please be aware that
we, easyaid.com., are not responsible for
the privacy practices of such other sites. We encourage our users
to be aware when they leave our site and to read the privacy statements
of each and every Web site that collects personally identifiable
information. This privacy statement applies solely to information
collected by this Web site
Security
This Web site takes every precaution to protect our users’
information. When users submit sensitive information via the Web
site, their information is protected both online and off-line.
While we use SSL encryption to protect
sensitive information online, we also do everything in our power
to protect user-information off-line. All of our users’
information, not just the sensitive information mentioned above,
is restricted in our offices. Only employees who need the information
to perform a specific job are granted access to personally identifiable
information. Our employees must use password-protected screen-savers
when they leave their desk. When they return, they must re-enter
their password to re-gain access to user information. Furthermore,
ALL employees are kept up-to-date on our security and privacy
practices. Every [quarter], as well as any time new policies are
added, our employees are notified and/or reminded about the importance
we place on privacy, and what they can do to ensure our users’
information is protected. Finally, the servers that store personally
identifiable information are in a secure environment, in a locked
facility.
If users have any questions about
the security at our Web site, users can send an email to info@easyaid.com.
Correcting/Updating/Deleting/Deactivating
Personal Information
If a user’s personally identifiable information changes
(such as zip code, phone, email or postal address), or if a user
no longer desires our service, we provide a way to correct, update
or delete/deactivate users’ personally identifiable information.
This can usually be done by emailing our Customer Support at info@easyaid.com.
Notification of Changes
If we decide to change our privacy policy, we will post those
changes to this privacy statement, the homepage, and other places
we deem appropriate so our users are always aware of what information
we collect, how we use it, and under what circumstances, if any,
we disclose it.
If, however, we are going to use
users’ personally identifiable information in a manner different
from that stated at the time of collection we will notify users
by posting a notice on our Web site for 30 days.
