(including, without limitation, information collected offline, in person, over the telephone,

relates to, describes, or could reasonably be associated with an individual.
We may collect information you voluntarily provide through the Website, including your
name, email address, mailing address, telephone number, admissions inquiry
information, event registration information, employment inquiry information, donation or
payment information, and any other information you choose to submit through Website
forms.

We may also automatically collect certain technical information when you visit the
Website, such as your IP address, browser type, device type, operating system,
referring website, pages viewed, access times, and similar information used to
understand and improve Website performance.

How We Use Information Collected

Passively collected information: We gather this information to measure traffic and
usage trends, tailor our website, and provide information about PKS to you and
other website visitors in a more effective manner.
Information you proactively enter: We use this information to contact you; confirm
or fulfill a request that you made via an online form; follow up on any request you

send promotional materials, newsletters or other content via email or otherwise;

sign you up for events or information sessions; improve our programs or website
experience; or take actions pursuant to your specific requests.

How We Share Information Collected

We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information. We may share your information
with trusted service partners, such as website hosts, payment processors, or analytics
providers, where we have your permission or where the vendor partner has been
engaged to provide specific services to PKS. These service partners are authorized to
use personal information only as necessary to provide service to PKS.
We may also have to disclose your information where we reasonably believe it is
necessary (a) to satisfy or comply with laws or legal process, including subpoenas,
warrants or court orders; (b) to protect our property or rights; (c) to protect the health or
safety of any person; (d) to address security concerns; (e) to prevent or stop activity we

How We Use Cookies and Tracking Tools

We use cookies and similar technologies to operate our Website, improve functionality,
understand how visitors use the Website, and enhance the user experience. Cookies
are small text files stored on your device that allow a website to recognize your browser
and remember certain information.

You may configure your browser to notify you when cookies are received or to refuse
some or all cookies. Please note that disabling cookies may affect certain Website
functionality.

We may also use third-party analytics providers, such as Google Analytics, to help us
understand Website traffic and usage trends. These providers may collect technical
information about your use of the Website as described in their own privacy policies.
PKS does not currently respond to browser-initiated Do-Not-Track signals because no
uniform industry standard currently exists.

Updating Your Information or Restricting Access

If you are not the parent of a student enrolled at PKS and you need to update
information provided to us, please revisit the original information capture mechanism,
such as the portal through which you provided contact or admissions information. If
there is no method to update information, contact us at contractus@presidioknolls.org. If
you are the parent of a student enrolled in PKS, you may contact the Head of School to
find out what data we have about you or your child and make corrections as
appropriate.

We typically retain personal information only as long as reasonably necessary for the
purposes described in this Policy, to comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes,
enforce our agreements, or as otherwise permitted by law. You should understand that
once you transmit information to us through the website, you may not be able to change
or remove it.

Security

We take reasonable measures to protect the personal information that we collect from
or about you from unauthorized access, improper use or disclosure. Please be aware,
however, that no method of transmitting information over the internet is perfect, and no
method of storing information is completely secure.
