Privacy Policy

The College JumpStart Scholarship organization is committed to protecting your privacy and trust. We’ve created this privacy statement to demonstrate our firm commitment to online privacy.

Our promise. Our promise about your personal information: If we collect information from you, we use it only for the purposes for which it was collected and the other limited purposes outlined below.

What we collect and how we use it. We collect some non-personally identifiable information (including, but not limited to, your IP address, the type of browser and operating system you are using, the domain name from which you linked to our site) to help diagnose technical problems and to help administer our website.

We collect some personally identifiable information (such as when you apply for the College JumpStart Scholarship). We may use the information to contact the user, but users may opt-out of receiving future communications. For example, we may contact you if your application is missing required information or to update you when winners are selected.

We will not sell or disclose your personally identifiable data to any third party unless we first obtain explicit permission from you. For example, often journalists want to talk with our scholarship winners. However, we will always contact you first before giving them your contact information.

External links. We do link to other websites and non-profit or for-profit organizations that qualify as strategic partners. We are not responsible for the privacy practices or the content of these external websites.

Security. While there is no such thing as "perfect" security on the Internet, we will take all reasonable steps to ensure the safety of your personally identifiable information. This site has security measures in place to protect the loss, misuse and alteration of the information under our control. These measures include dedicated fire walled servers, password encrypted databases, and restrictions on user-to-user data visibility. However, we do not assume any liability for third-party usage of your personal information, whether obtained legally or illegally from our system.

Choice/Opt-Out. Users have the opportunity to opt-out of receiving communications from us and our partners at the point where we request information about the visitor.

Children's Privacy. Protecting the privacy of the very young is especially important. For that reason, we never collect or maintain information at our website from those we actually know are under 13.
