rent or lease its customer lists to third parties. American Language Center may, from
time to time, contact you on behalf of external business partners about a
particular offering that may be of interest to you. In those cases, your unique

Use of Cookies
The American Language Center Web site use "cookies" to help you personalize your
online experience. A cookie is a text file that is placed on your hard disk by
a Web page server. Cookies cannot be used to run programs or deliver viruses to
your computer. Cookies are uniquely assigned to you, and can only be read by a
web server in the domain that issued the cookie to you.
One of the primary
purposes of cookies is to provide a convenience feature to save you time. The
purpose of a cookie is to tell the Web server that you have returned to a
specific page. For example, if you personalize American Language Center pages, or
register with American Language Center site or services, a cookie helps
American Language Center to recall your specific information on subsequent visits.
This simplifies the process of recording your personal information, such as
billing addresses, shipping addresses, and so on. When you return to the same
American Language Center Web site, the information you previously provided can be
retrieved, so you can easily use the American Language Center features that you
customized.
You have the ability to accept or decline cookies. Most Web
browsers automatically accept cookies, but you can usually modify your browser
setting to decline cookies if you prefer. If you choose to decline cookies, you
may not be able to fully experience the interactive features of the
American Language Center services or Web sites you visit.
Security of your Personal Information
American Language Center secures your personal information from
unauthorized access, use or disclosure. American Language Center secures the
personally identifiable information you provide on computer servers in a
controlled, secure environment, protected from unauthorized access, use or
disclosure. When personal information (such as a credit card number) is
transmitted to other Web sites, it is protected through the use of encryption,
such as the Secure Socket Layer (SSL) protocol.
Changes to this Statement
American Language Center will occasionally update this Statement of Privacy to reflect
company and customer feedback. American Language Center encourages you to periodically
review this Statement to be informed of how American Language Center is protecting
your information.
