Albertus Magnus College and its marketing partners collect data from the devices you
use to visit this website and to view our advertisements on other websites. This document
explains what data are collected, how they are used, and what you can do to prevent
us from collecting data from your devices.
What Data Are Collected?
We collect information such as:
the addresses of the webpages you visit,
the name of the operating system your device uses,
the number of times we've shown you a particular advertisement, and
the duration of your visit to our website.
None of that information can be used on its own to identify you personally.
How Are the Data Collected?
We use cookies, beacons, and tags to collect and store data about your visit to our
website.
Cookies are small text files that a website creates and stores on your computer for
a certain amount of time. Cookies commonly contain information such as:
whether you are currently logged in at a particular website,
what items you have placed in a shopping cart, and
what pages you have visited recently on a particular site.
Some cookies expire when you finish your visit to a website while others remain on
your computer longer than the duration of your visit. The cookies we and our partners
use typically expire between 45 days and two years after they have been created.
Albertus Magnus College also uses tools that allows us to deliver personalized content
based on your visit data.

Beacons
Beacons are minute, often transparent, images in a webpage that are used together
with cookies to follow your visits across one or more websites. When you visit a webpage
containing a beacon, your device will share information about itself with the server
that provides the beacon.
Tags
Tags are bits of code in a webpage that collect information about the page and how
you use it. Unlike cookies, tags send the information they collect directly to us
or our partners instead of storing it locally on your computer. Website personalization,
analytics, and targeted advertising are common examples how we may use tags.
What Happens to the Data?
Storage
Any cookies we or our partners create will remain on your computer until you delete
them or until they expire. The data that are not stored locally on your computer are
stored securely for up to three years or longer, after which time they will be deleted.
Use
We and our marketing partners use the data we collect in a variety of ways to improve
our website and to show you advertisements. These uses may include:
showing you an ad related to the content of the webpage you are currently viewing,
limiting the number of times you see a particular ad,
optimizing the site's design for certain screen sizes, and
improving the time a web browser requires to load a webpage.
Neither Albertus nor its partners will ever sell or rent any of the collected data
to a third party.
How Can You Prevent Us From Collecting Your Data?
You can prevent us from collecting your data by taking three simple steps:
activate the private browsing feature in your web browser,
complete the National Advertising Initiative's
consumer opt-out
, and
install the Google Analytics
Opt-out Browser Add-on
