Mobile Information Sharing

The Ivy Track does not sell, rent, trade, or share mobile phone numbers, SMS opt-in data, or SMS consent information with third parties or affiliates for their own marketing or promotional purposes.

Mobile information may be disclosed only to service providers that assist in delivering requested communications, when necessary to operate the Services, or when required by law.

SMS consent records are used only for purposes reasonably related to the messaging program and compliance requirements.

Mobile carriers are not liable for delayed, undelivered, or misdirected messages. Message delivery depends on your wireless carrier, device, network availability, and other factors outside our control.

The Ivy Track’s SMS program is intended for persons 18 years of age or older. Where communications concern a student under 18, a parent or legal guardian should provide the phone number, provide any required consent, and manage messaging preferences.

8. Cookies and Tracking Technologies

The Ivy Track does not run advertising trackers, behavioral advertising pixels, or analytics trackers on the Site.

The Site uses only cookies or similar technologies that are necessary to provide essential functionality, including keeping authenticated users signed in to their accounts.

These necessary technologies may support functions such as:

Account authentication

Login sessions

Platform security

Essential Site operation

If you do not sign in to an account, the Site does not intentionally set non-essential tracking cookies.

Because The Ivy Track does not use advertising or behavioral analytics cookies, we do not use cookies to build advertising profiles or track users across unrelated websites for targeted advertising.

You may configure your browser to reject or remove cookies, although blocking essential authentication cookies may prevent account login or certain platform functionality from working correctly.


9. Advertising and Analytics

The Ivy Track does not currently use personal information for behavioral advertising and does not operate advertising or analytics trackers on ivytrackprep.com.

We do not sell personal information to advertising networks or data brokers.

If our tracking practices materially change in the future, this Privacy Policy will be updated before or when those practices are implemented as required by applicable law.


10. Children’s and Student Privacy

The Ivy Track primarily works with students in grades 9 through 12.

Where a student is under 18, we expect a parent or legal guardian to:

Make or authorize the initial inquiry

Agree to the Services

Provide appropriate consent

Participate in relevant account or service decisions

A parent or legal guardian may contact us to request access to, correction of, or deletion of information associated with their minor child, subject to applicable legal and record-retention requirements.

The Site and Services are not directed to children under 13.

We do not knowingly collect personal information directly from children under 13.

If we learn that we have collected personal information from a child under 13 without appropriate authorization, we will take reasonable steps to delete the information.

Parents or guardians who believe a child under 13 has provided information to us should contact:

[email protected]


11. Data Retention

We retain information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy, unless a longer period is required or permitted by law.

Our general retention practices include:

Inquiries

Inquiry and booking information may be retained while we are communicating with a prospective family and for a reasonable period afterward in case the family returns or follow-up is needed.

Student Accounts

Student account information and practice history may be retained for as long as the student’s account remains active.

Educational Records

Practice results, assignments, session information, counseling progress, and related records may be retained while necessary to provide the Services and maintain the student’s educational history.

Legal and Business Records

Certain information may be retained where reasonably necessary to:

Comply with law

Resolve disputes

Maintain appropriate business records

Prevent fraud or abuse

Enforce agreements

You may request deletion as described below. We will delete information we are not legally or operationally required to retain.


12. Data Security

We use reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational safeguards designed to protect personal information against unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, loss, or misuse.

These protections may include:

Account authentication

Hashed password storage through our authentication provider

Restricted system access

Secure hosting infrastructure

Encrypted or protected credentials where appropriate

Access controls

Service-provider security measures

However, no internet transmission, electronic storage method, or information-security system can be guaranteed to be completely secure.

Accordingly, while we work to protect personal information, we cannot guarantee absolute security.

We will respond to verified requests within the period required by applicable law.


14. State Privacy Rights

The right to request deletion

The right to obtain a portable copy of certain information

Privacy requests may be submitted to:

[email protected]

Nothing in this section is intended to grant rights that do not apply under applicable law.


15. Do Not Track and Global Privacy Signals

Because The Ivy Track does not currently operate behavioral advertising or analytics tracking technologies on the Site, we do not use Site activity for cross-context behavioral advertising.

Browser “Do Not Track” signals are not governed by a single uniform U.S. standard.

Where applicable law requires recognition of a legally binding browser-based opt-out preference signal, we will process such signals as required.


16. Email Communications

We may send transactional or service-related email messages such as:

Booking confirmations

Session information

Account notices

Service-related updates

Responses to inquiries

Transactional communications may be necessary to provide Services you requested.

If we send optional marketing email in the future, recipients will be provided with an appropriate method to unsubscribe where required by law.


17. Third-Party Links and Services

The Site may contain links to third-party websites, platforms, or services.

Those third parties operate independently from The Ivy Track and may have their own privacy policies and practices.

We are not responsible for the privacy practices, security, content, or conduct of third-party websites or services that we do not control.

We encourage users to review the privacy policies of third parties before providing information to them.


18. International Processing

The Ivy Track and its service providers may process or store information using systems located in the United States or other jurisdictions where our providers operate.

If information is processed outside the jurisdiction where you live, applicable privacy protections may differ from those in your home jurisdiction.

Where legally required, we take reasonable measures designed to ensure appropriate handling of personal information.


19. Business Transfers

If The Ivy Track is involved in a merger, acquisition, financing transaction, reorganization, sale of assets, or similar transaction, personal information may be transferred as part of that transaction.

Any successor receiving personal information will be subject to applicable privacy obligations with respect to that information.

Changes to our Services

Changes to our technology providers

Changes to our data practices

Legal or regulatory requirements

Security or operational needs

The “Last Updated” date at the top of this Policy identifies the most recent revision.
