This Privacy Policy applies to your use of the Texas A&M University – College of Veterinary Medicine and Biomedical Sciences (sometimes referred to as “TAMU” or “we” or “us”) GRP Toolkit for certain educational services described in the GRP Toolkit Terms of Use.

This Privacy Policy applies to Personal and Usage Information collected by TAMU through the GRP Toolkit and any other sub-domain website, mobile device application, or digital service on or to which this Privacy Policy is linked or referenced (collectively, the “Website”). Unless we notify you, this Privacy Policy does not apply to any third-party website or service that you may access through the Website.

This Privacy Policy is incorporated into and made part of our Website Terms of Use. Please read this Privacy Policy and our Website Terms of Use carefully. When you submit Personal Information or Usage Data (as those terms are described below) to us through the Website, you consent to the collection, use and disclosure of your Personal Information and Usage Data as described in this Privacy Policy.

IF YOU DO NOT AGREE WITH ANY PART OF THIS PRIVACY POLICY OR OUR WEBSITE TERMS OF USE, PLEASE DO NOT USE OUR WEBSITE AND ONLINE SERVICES.

1. Changes to This Privacy Policy.

The Effective Date of this Privacy Policy appears at the top of this webpage. As business needs change, we may revise this Privacy Policy from time to time. Your continued use of the Website following the posting of the revised Privacy Policy means that you accept and agree to the changes. The revised Privacy Policy supersedes all previous versions of the Privacy Policy.

2. Information We May Collect.

2.1 When you use the Website, we may collect three types of data and information: Personal Information; Usage Data, and User Content. In this Privacy Policy,

2.2 “Personal Information” means any information that identifies or could be used to identify an individual, such as email address of Personal Information are mandatory and you must consent to the collection and use of these items of Personal Information, or you will not be permitted to use the Website. We also collect data and information related to your access and use of the educational and instructional content on the Website, such as files accessed and related data; responsive data and information you may enter (e.g., replies to questions; etc.).

2.3 Personal Information does not include either: (a) aggregated Personal Information to the extent that an individual’s identity cannot reasonably be derived from it; or (b) publicly available Personal Information that has not been combined with non-public Personal Information. We may use and disclose such aggregated Personal Information for research and education purposes, including but not limited to developing research proposals; improving services offered through the Website; and conducting demonstrations of the structure, purpose, and efficacy of the Website to potential research sponsors, collaborators, and tool authors.

2.4 “Usage Data” is information about an individual’s activity on or through the Website that, by itself, does not reasonably identify the individual, such as the following: (a) browser and operating system information; (b) computer or device type; (c) time spent navigating certain webpages or connected via mobile applications; (d) information collected through Data Collection Technologies (as defined below).

2.5 Generally, we do not consider Usage Data as Personal Information, because Usage Data by itself usually does not identify an individual. However, in some jurisdictions, Usage Data may be considered Personal Information because it can be used to make inferences about you.

3. Collection, Use, and Disclosure of Personal Information.

3.1 How We May Collect Personal Information. We and our third-party service providers, if any, may collect Personal Information through your use of the Website such as when you register with us and participate in the educational services offered at the Website.

If you do not want us to collect Location Data from your device, please delete the App or disable the location settings on your device or tablet. Note, however, that disabling the location setting may affect your ability to access and use an App.

4.4 In some instances, we may combine Usage Data with Personal Information (such as your device ID with your name). If we combine any Usage Data with Personal Information, we treat the combined information as Personal Information for so long as it is combined and can be used to identify you.

6. Cookies and Other Data Collection Technology

6.1 We refer to cookies, web beacons (also known as pixel tags and clear GIFs) and other similar technology as “Data Collection Technology.” A cookie is a small text file that is sent to or accessed from your web browser, device, or your computer’s hard drive. A cookie typically contains the name of the domain (internet location) from which the cookie originated, the “lifetime” of the cookie (when it expires), and a randomly generated unique number or another similar identifier. A cookie may also contain information about your computer or device, such as user settings, browsing history, and activities conducted while using the Website. A web beacon (also called a pixel tag or clear GIF) is a piece of computer code that enables us to monitor user activity and website traffic.

6.2 How We Use Data Collection Technology. Data Collection Technology helps us improve your experience of the Website. In particular, we use analytics cookies to compile statistics about the use of the Website, help us analyze technical and navigational information about the functionalities provided, and detect and prevent fraud. We also may use Data Collection Technology to collect information from the computer or device that you use to access the Website, such as your operating system type, browser type, domain and other system settings, as well as the language your system uses and the country and time zone in which your computer or device is located.

6.3 Your Control of Cookies. Some web browsers (including some mobile web browsers) provide settings that allow you to control or reject cookies or alert you when a cookie is placed on your computer or device. You may also be able to reject mobile device identifiers by activating the appropriate setting on your mobile device. Although you are not required to accept cookies or mobile device identifiers, if you block or reject them, you may not have access to all features available through the Website.

6.4 Our Policy on Do Not Track Signals: Some web browsers incorporate a “Do Not Track” (“DNT”) or similar feature that signals to websites that a user does not want to have his or her online activity and behavior tracked. If a website that responds to a particular DNT signal receives the DNT signal, the browser can block that website from collecting certain Personal Information about the browser’s user. We follow the DNT signals we receive from your browsers.

7. Choices and Access.

7.1 Access Requests. You may request access to any of your Personal Information that you have previously provided to us through the Website. You may also request that we update, modify or delete your Personal Information that we have collected. Please contact us by email at cethelpdesk@cvm.tamu.edu to exercise these rights.

8.1 The Website may include links to third-party websites and services that we do not operate. If you visit a third-party website or service via a link on the Website, you are subject to that third party’s privacy practices and policies. This Privacy Policy does not apply to any Personal Information that you provide to third-party websites or services. A link to a third-party website or service does not mean that we endorse that third party or the quality or accuracy of the information presented on its website or service.

9.1 Currently, the Website is controlled and operated by us from the United States, and is not directed at, marketed towards, or intended for use by individuals, entities, or activities that would subject us to the laws or jurisdiction of any state, country, or territory other than the United States.
