American College of Education (ACE) is committed to ensuring the privacy and accuracy of your confidential information. ACE does not actively share personal information gathered from its Web servers. However, while ACE does not actively share information, in some cases ACE may be compelled by law to release information gathered from its Web servers.
As part of its commitment to maintain the privacy of its Web users, ACE has developed this privacy statement. The statement has two purposes:
ACE also complies with the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA), which prohibits the release of education records without student permission.
This policy is effective specifically for the features or data centers of the ACE Website and represents the minimum requirements that must be in place. Individuals or individual areas that have computers and networks may have additional controls and security, but they are in addition to this policy.
The ACE Website may contain links to hundreds of external Web sites. ACE is not responsible for the privacy practices or the content of the external Websites we link to.
ACE Web servers may generate temporary logs that may contain the following information:
The data is used in aggregate by custodians of information technology to tune the Website for its efficiency and is not ordinarily associated with specific individuals. Raw data from the Web server logs is only shared with the custodian of each Web site. Summary reports produced from the logs help Web publishers determine what Web browsers and pages are most popular.
Some pages within the ACE.edu domain may contain content that is served from external third parties. Please be aware that when you visit ACE.edu, pages that contain third-party content, information such as your IP address, date, browser, and requested page are transmitted from your computer to that third-party. ACE is not responsible for the privacy practices of these external third parties.
Although no computer system is 100% secure, ACE has deployed extensive security measures to protect against the loss, misuse, or alteration of the information under our control. These security measures and our systems are routinely audited and updated by ACE security specialists.
Sites within ACE may enable you to pay for products or services online with a credit card. Although ACE makes every effort to ensure that these third parties provide that these transactions are encrypted, ACE is not responsible for the privacy practices of these external third parties.
The Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA), described as the most dramatic change to copyright law in a generation, was the 105th Congress's effort to update copyright law for the digital environment. Please be aware that under the DMCA, ACE reserves the right to terminate computing services of users who repeatedly infringe upon the rights of copyright owners.
