Information We Collect

We may collect personally identifiable information about you, such as your full name, phone number and email address, when you voluntarily provide this information, such as when you request information about an academic program. If you choose to apply for admission, our third-party application service providers will collect additional information.

Third parties, including Facebook and Google, may use cookies, web beacons, and other storage technologies to collect or receive information from St. Mary’s websites and elsewhere on the internet and use that information to provide measurement services and target ads.

Facebook: You may choose to opt out of the collection and use of information for ad targeting at http://www.aboutads.info/choices and http://www.youronlinechoices.eu/.

Google AdWords: St. Mary’s websites use the Google AdWords service. This service uses a cookie (a small file installed on your computer) to enable Google to serve you with relevant advertisements. The cookie cannot be used to identify you. If you choose to do so, however, you can opt out of Google’s use of cookies for advertising purposes by using Google’s Ad Settings page.

How We Use Your Information

If you request information, we will follow by phone and/or email with the information you requested. If you no longer wish to be contacted, you may opt out of contact.

We also collect anonymous information via the use of cookies. The data do not identify you and are not connected to any personally identifiable information, but rather allow us to monitor behavioral trends such as web browsers, screen resolutions, and pages that are frequently visited on our websites.

How We Share Your Information

St. Mary’s University will not rent or sell your personally identifiable information to others. Our vendors may store personal information in locations outside the direct control of St. Mary’s University.
