Privacy
Notice
CBSS endeavors to maintain the privacy of its
visitors and users. This Site has been designed
to collect only information provided by Administrators
working on behalf of Colleges and Universities.
After creating an account on behalf of their
College or University, these individuals may
choose to complete an online form requesting
information related to CBSS services. During
this process, they are asked to provide certain
information including, Name, College Employer,
Business Address, Business Phone/Fax Number
and Business Email Address. CBSS uses this information
to facilitate telephonic or written contact
with the Administrator in order to verify that
he/she is employed by a College or University
and, if so, to follow up on the request for
information regarding CBSS's services. CBSS
does not utilize this information in any other
manner. It is not released or sold to any third
party.
Any information provided through this Site by
individuals who are not Administrators working
on behalf of a College or University will not
be utilized and will immediately be deleted.
This Site does not employ the use of "cookies."
High School Students may receive information
about academic post-secondary educational opportunities
from one of CBSS's College or University clients.
These clients utilize the CBSS database to identify
and communicate with students whose achievements
and aspirations indicate that they may match
well with educational opportunities provided
by the College. This contact is based on personally
identifiable information voluntarily provided
by the student. If at any time a student wishes
to "opt out" because they no longer
wish to be contacted by Colleges and Universities
utilizing the services of CBSS, they may do
so by writing to CBSS at College Bound Selection
Service, 266-15B Main Street, Medfield, MA 02052
or emailing us at info@cbssearch.net. CBSS will
not then share personal information about them
with any third party unless required by law.
CBSS will disclose information when required
by law, such as in response to a court order,
in answer to a subpoena, or in response to a
law enforcement agency's request.
CBSS endeavors to share personally identifiable
information about students only with Colleges
and Universities that follow established and
acceptable privacy practices, but CBSS does
not vouch for the actions of third parties.
In order for CBSS to authorize a College or
University to contact persons on its lists,
the College or University first must agree to
observe certain list rental terms and conditions,
which will include privacy practices, fair information
practices, and guidelines for dealing with children.
These terms include the privacy protection guidelines
and fair information practices of the Direct
Marketing Association ("DMA"), copies
of which are available at the DMA's office at
1120 Avenue of the Americas, New York, NY 10036-6700,
and at the DMA website located at www.the-dma.org
(including http://www.the-dma.org/privacy/index.shtml
and http://www.the-dma.org/guidelines/ethicalguidelines.shtml).
Colleges and Universities are also required
by applicable regulation to strictly abide by
any privacy policy which they may have adopted
and/or published.
Colleges and Universities must agree not to
use or otherwise disclose personally identifiable
information about children in violation of the
Children's Online Privacy Protection Act or
any other applicable children's privacy law,
statute, rule, regulation or ordinance. They
also may not permit the individual look-up of
information about a child on CBSS's lists except
in response to a properly issued subpoena, a
lawful request from a law enforcement agency,
or a request from the National Center for Missing
and Exploited Children for purposes of locating
a missing child.
In order to assist its licensees in exercising
fair information practices, CBSS and its affiliates
endeavor to collect, use and maintain the personally
identifiable information contained in CBSS's
lists in accordance with applicable privacy
laws.
Updates
CBSS reserves the right to change its privacy
practices at any time. If any changes occur,
CBSS will post those changes here and will amend
the "Last Updated" date posted at
its site. We encourage you to visit this site
frequently to stay informed.
