What is BYU Studies' basic policy on privacy?
BYU Studies is committed to safeguarding your privacy online. To that end, we will use our best efforts to ensure that the information you submit to us remains private. In addition, we will ask for only the information we need to provide the service you've requested.

Will BYU Studies give my information to others?
The information you supply to BYU Studies, including email addresses, is considered confidential and will not be shared with others, except on those very rare occasions when the law requires it.

Will my privacy be protected when I link to other sites?
While life would be simpler if all sites would guarantee your privacy, policies unfortunately vary from organization to organization. For your own protection, when interacting with any Web site we link to, please read that site's posted privacy statement.

How secure is my personal information?
You wish and we wish that we could be completely protected when we use the Web. Unfortunately, the nature of the Web means no one has perfect control, including BYU Studies. Nevertheless, the security of your personal information is of utmost concern to us, so here are the steps we have taken. We exercise great care in providing secure transmission of your information from your computer to our server. When credit card information is transmitted, we use industry standard, SSL (secure socket layer) encryption. Once we receive your transmission, we make our best effort to ensure its security on our systems.

But remember, no data transmission over the Internet can be guaranteed to be 100 percent secure. As a result, while BYU Studies strives to protect your personal information, we cannot ensure or warrant the security of any information you transmit to us. While we work to minimize any hazards in your interaction with us, regrettably you still use our site at your own risk (as in reality you do all Web sites).

What if I still have concerns?
If you have questions at any time regarding our privacy policy, please email them to us at byustudies@byu.edu.

Will this policy ever change?
Since we cannot predict what the future may hold, this policy may change from time to time. Please check back periodically

How do I indicate my acceptance of BYU Studies' privacy policy?
You signify your assent to the BYU Studies Privacy Policy simply by using this site.
