It is Bridges Academy’s
policy to respect your privacy regarding any information
we may collect while operating our website.
Website Visitors
Like most website
operators, Bridges Academy collects
non-personally-identifying information of the sort that
web browsers and servers typically make available, such
as the browser type, language preference, referring
site, and the date and time of each visitor request.
Bridges Academy’s purpose in collecting non-personally
identifying information is to better understand how
Bridges Academy’s visitors use its website.
Gathering of
Personally-Identifying Information
Certain visitors to
Bridges Academy’s website choose to interact with
Bridges Academy in ways that require Bridges Academy to
gather personally-identifying information. The amount
and type of information that Bridges Academy gathers
depends on the nature of the interaction. Those who
engage in transactions with Bridges Academy – by making
a donation, for example – are asked to provide
additional information, including as necessary the
personal and financial information required to process
those transactions. In each case, Bridges Academy
collects such information only insofar as is necessary
or appropriate to fulfill the purpose of the visitor’s
interaction with Bridges Academy. Bridges Academy does
not disclose personally-identifying information other
than as described below. And visitors can always refuse
to supply personally-identifying information, with the
caveat that it may prevent them from engaging in certain
website-related activities.
Bridges Academy does not
disclose personally-identifying information other than
as described below.
Protection of Certain
Personally-Identifying Information
Bridges Academy discloses
potentially personally-identifying and
personally-identifying information only when required to

faith that disclosure is reasonably necessary to protect
the property or rights of Bridges Academy, third parties
or the public at large. If you are a registered user of

request (for example via a support email or via one of
our feedback mechanisms), we reserve the right to
publish it in order to help us clarify or respond to
your request or to help us support other users. Bridges
Academy takes all measures reasonably necessary to
protect against the unauthorized access, use, alteration
or destruction of potentially personally-identifying and
personally-identifying information.
