UC San Diego is transforming California and a diverse global society by educating, by generating and disseminating knowledge and creative works, and by engaging in public service.

II. SCOPE

This Privacy Statement explains how the University of California San Diego (“UC San Diego,” “we,” “us” or “our”) collects, uses, discloses, and otherwise processes personal information (as defined below) in connection with our campus website yolb.268297.com and other websites we own and operate that link to this Privacy Statement (the “Sites”), and the related content, platform, services, products, and other functionality offered on or through our Sites (collectively, the “Services”).

This Privacy Statement does not address our privacy practices related specifically to UC San Diego employees, students, or other affiliates, except where these individuals are interacting with UC San Diego Sites in their capacity as a member of the public.

It does not apply to the collection, use, and disclosure of your protected health information. Please see the UC San Diego Health Notice of Privacy Practices for more information about how UC San Diego collects, uses, and discloses your protected health information under the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA).

When we collect personal information that is part of a student or an applicant’s educational record (“Student Data”), we collect, use, store, and otherwise process such information in accordance with the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA). To the extent that our processing practices in connection with Student Data differ from this Privacy Statement, the practices described in this Privacy Statement will not apply.

Except when operating the Preuss School and UC San Diego youth program and related Sites, our Services are not 1) directed to, 2) intended for, or 3) knowingly collecting or soliciting personal information from children under the age of 13. If an individual is under the age of 13, they should not use our Services or otherwise provide us with any personal information either directly or by other means, except when done with the explicit permission of the child’s parent or legal guardian in connection with the Preuss School or a UC San Diego youth program. In all instances, if we learn that any personal information we collect has been provided by a child under the age of 13, and in the case of youth programs without the parent or legal guardian consent, we will delete that personal information.

Our Services may include links to third-party websites, plug-ins, and applications. Except where they post, link to, or expressly adopt or refer to this Privacy Statement, or have a contract in place with the University, this Privacy Statement does not apply to, and we are not responsible for, any personal information practices of third-party websites and online services or the practices of other third parties.

III. What is Personal Information?

When we use the term "personal information” in this Privacy Statement, we mean any data or information that identifies, relates to, describes, is capable of being associated with, or could reasonably be linked, directly or indirectly, with a particular natural person or household or any other data or information that constitutes “personal data,” "personal information,” or “personally identifiable information.” As noted above, it does not include protected health information under HIPAA.

IV. Our Collection of Personal Information

We obtain personal information about you in the following ways:

Personal Information We Create or Collect Directly from You

We collect the following categories of personal information submitted to us by individuals through the Services:

  • Registration, Account Setup, and Contact Information.

  • Payment Information. We may collect payment information in order to complete transactions, such as purchases, registrations, and donations, through our websites. We use third-party payment processors to process credit card payments made to us. As such, we do not retain any personally identifiable financial information in connection with credit card payments, such as credit card numbers. Rather, all such information is provided directly by you to our third-party processor. The payment processor’s use of your personal information is governed by their privacy notice.
  • Inquiry and Communications Information. We collect personal information when we communicate with you, for example, in custom messages sent through forms, in chat messages, to one of our email addresses, or via phone. Some Sites give you the option of using our Live Chat or chatbot feature (provided by an outside vendor) to communicate with us. This feature collects information such as your name and communication between you and our staff.
  • Newsletter and Marketing Emails, including email address and applicable interests and communication preferences.
  • Surveys and Feedback Information. We may collect feedback from you relating to our Services through surveys or other means. Information collected may include responses to questions, testimonials, and demographic information.
  • Employment, Volunteer, Internship, and Other Application Information, including your contact and demographic information, educational and work history, employment interests, information obtained during interviews, and any other information you choose to provide, if you apply for these positions.

Personal Information We Collect Automatically

As is true of most websites, we and our third-party partners may automatically collect the following information from or in connection with your device when visiting or interacting with our Services:

  • Log Data, including internet protocol (IP) address, operating system, device type and version, MAC addresses, browser type and version, browser id, the URL entered and the referring page/campaign, date/time of visit, other hardware or software data, the time spent on our Services, how frequently you access our Services, and any errors that may occur during the visit to our Services. Log data may overlap with other categories of data below.
  • Authentication Data. Some Sites require authentication in order to grant access. Authentication systems will use information such as logins, passwords, and authentication tokens to verify your identity.
  • Analytics data, including the electronic path you take to our Services, through our Services and when exiting our Services, as well as your usage and activity on our Services, such as the time zone, first and last active date and time, usage history (flows created, campaigns scheduled, emails opened, total logins) as well as the pages, links, objects, services you view, click, or otherwise interact with. We may also use third-party tools (see below) to collect information about how you use our Services and may record your mouse movements, scrolling, clicks, and keystroke activity on the Services, and other browsing or search behavior on University websites. These tools may also record information you enter when you interact with our Service or engage in chat features through our Service.
  • Location data, such as location information we derive from your IP address or other device information.

Personal Information from Other Entities

We also obtain personal information from others, and sometimes we combine it with personal information we collect either automatically or directly from you.

If you have a Google account, Google has information about you, such as your age, gender, interests, and online behaviors that it can combine with other information about you. Adsense and DoubleClick tracking data are also used to ascertain a user's interests based on browsing behavior, eventually forming a pattern that can be assigned to market segments.
