WHAT DO WE DO WITH YOUR INFORMATION?

Typically, we collect submitted information and automatic information. Data that users voluntarily submit through our web form is considered “submitted” information, which may be personal contact information and any other details that may be required to match users to an education product or service. This helps us provide the services requested by our visitors.

By submitting this information, you authorize Vaanahaa to contact you — in accordance with all applicable laws — by phone, text messages, email or mail regarding education options or related topics. If you receive any email communications from us you will be given the opportunity to unsubscribe through a link in the email, which will remove you from further mailings from the sender.

Vaanahaa also collects automatic information, certain types of anonymous information, whenever you interact with us. This information helps us make site improvements and create a tailored user experience. For example, we use “cookies” to collect anonymous data for analytics, site optimization and for tailored advertising and marketing purposes. Examples of this kind of information include, but are not limited to, your browser version, operating system version, and your IP address.

If we ask for your personal information for a secondary reason, like marketing, we will either ask you directly for your expressed consent or provide you with an opportunity to say no.

THIRD-PARTY SERVICES

In general, the third-party providers used by us will only collect, use and disclose your information to the extent necessary to allow them to perform the services they provide to us.

However, certain third-party service providers, such as payment gateways and other payment transaction processors, have their own privacy policies in respect to the information we are required to provide to them for your purchase-related transactions.

For these providers, we recommend that you read their privacy policies so you can understand the manner in which your personal information will be handled by these providers.

In particular, remember that certain providers may be located in or have facilities that are located in a different jurisdiction than either you or us. So if you elect to proceed with a transaction that involves the services of a third-party service provider, then your information may become subject to the laws of the jurisdiction(s) in which that service provider or its facilities are located.
