PRIVACY POLICY



Strayer University takes your privacy seriously. Read below to learn how we
collect, use, share and protect your personal information.

 1. Home

THIS POLICY HAS BEEN MODIFIED.

LAST REVISED: JANUARY 1, 2020

SCOPE OF THIS POLICY

Strategic Education, Inc. is the parent company of Capella Education Company,
Capella University, LLC, Strayer University, LLC, Hackbright Academy, Inc.,
Sophia Learning, LLC, Capella Learning Solutions, LLC, and Workforce Edge,
LLC. Students and learners from each of these institutions shall be referred to
collectively as “students.”

Strategic Education, Inc. or one of its wholly owned subsidiaries (collectively,
“SEI”) owns and operates this website. This Policy governs how we process
information—including Personal Information—collected through any SEI-owned
website that displays a link to our Privacy Policy (collectively, “our Sites”).
 Except as otherwise specified within this Policy, this Policy does not apply to
information collected offline, such as in person, on paper or by phone. It also
does not apply to any website that does not contain a link to our Privacy
Policy, even if SEI owns that site.

If you are a student (or are applying to become a student) at an educational
institution that is wholly owned by SEI and your education records are protected
under the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (“FERPA”), then provisions
of FERPA and the institution’s FERPA policy supersede and govern over any
contrary provisions in this Privacy Policy. Learn more about the Capella
University FERPA policy here, or the Strayer University FERPA policy here.

YOUR CONSENT TO THIS POLICY

By using our Sites, you are consenting to the collection, use and transfer of
your information, including Personal Information, as described in this Privacy
Policy (and any relevant Privacy Notice or Country-Specific Notice). If you do
not consent to the collection, use and transfer of your information as described
in this Privacy Policy (and any relevant Privacy Notice or Country-Specific
Notice), you may not use our Sites.

DEFINITIONS

Definitions

The terms “SEI,” “we,” “us” and “our” refer collectively to Strategic Education,
Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries.

The term “Personal Information” refers to information that identifies you
personally, alone or in combination with other information available to us.

The term “Policy” refers to this Online Privacy Policy.

The term “our Sites” refers collectively to the websites owned by SEI that
display a link to this Privacy Policy.

The terms “User Generated Content” and “UGC” refer all of the text, photographs,
images, illustrations, graphics, sounds, video and audio-video clips, and other
content you and others post on or through our Sites and that does not constitute
“Feedback” (as that term is defined in our Terms of Use).

PRIVACY NOTICES

Where additional information is needed to explain our privacy practices on a
certain Site, we may post a supplemental privacy notice. Particular pages of a
Site may also contain supplemental privacy notices providing more details about
the information we collect on those pages. These additional notices are
collectively referred to as “Privacy Notices” and are part of this Privacy
Policy. Privacy Notices may advise you that different policies and practices
apply to the information collected through those pages, in which case those
different policies and practices will supersede this Privacy Policy.

COUNTRY-SPECIFIC NOTICES

Privacy requirements vary from country to country. To meet these requirements,
we may include certain “Country-Specific Notices” as part of this Privacy
Policy. If any of the terms of a Country-Specific Notice are different than the
general terms of this Privacy Policy, the terms of the Country-Specific Notice
will supplement or amend this Privacy Policy, but only to the extent that the
laws of that country apply to the collection of information through our Sites.

THIS PRIVACY POLICY IS PART OF OUR TERMS OF USE

This Privacy Policy is referenced in and is an integral part of the Terms of
Use governing your use of our Sites. Please take a few minutes to review our
Terms of Use, if you have not already done so.

THIS PRIVACY POLICY MAY CHANGE

We reserve the right to update or modify this Privacy Policy and any Privacy
Notice or Country-Specific Notice, at any time and without prior notice, by
posting the revised version at our Privacy Policy. If we modify this Privacy
Policy or any Privacy Notice or Country-Specific Notice, the modifications will
only apply to the information we collect after we have posted the revised
version.

Your use of our Sites following any such change constitutes your agreement that
all information collected from or about you after the revised version is posted
will be subject to the terms of the revised version. You may access the current
version of this Privacy Policy at any time by clicking on the “Privacy” link at
the bottom of each page of the Sites governed by this Privacy Policy.

From time to time, for example, because of changes in the law or technology or
the way we operate our business, we may ask your permission to use the
information we have collected from you in the past in new or different ways. We
will do this by sending you a notice by email or postal mail at the last email
or postal address you provided to us, asking you to agree to the change. If you
do not agree to the change in the manner prescribed by applicable law, we may,
at our discretion, delete all or some of your information from our databases to
avoid using it in ways to which you have not consented.

YOUR CHOICES

We respect your right to make choices about the ways we collect, use and share
your information. We generally ask you to indicate your choices at the time and
on the page where you provide your information. Depending on the nature of your
choices and applicable law, we may also give you ways to change your privacy
preferences.

If we provide a means for you to change your privacy preferences, you must give
us enough information and a reasonable amount of time to process your request.
Your new preferences will only apply prospectively. For example, if you give us
permission to share your information with our affiliates and later withdraw your
permission, you may still receive email from one of our affiliates, if we shared
your information before you withdrew your permission.

In addition, you have choices about the types of email communications you
receive and the manner in which your online activities are tracked:

Email preferences: You cannot opt out of transactional emails related, for
example, to your enrollment or tuition. However, you can opt out of promotional
emails we send to you. If you wish to stop receiving promotional emails, simply
click on the unsubscribe link located at the bottom of each communication.

Online tracking and third-party cookies: California law requires this Policy to
address how we respond to any “Do-Not-Track signal” delivered by your browser.
Because of the changing state of technology and indecision within the industry
regarding the meaning of Do-Not-Track signals, we currently do not make any
guarantee that we will honor them. However, as described below, you can opt out
of cookies delivered to your computer by SEI or third parties.

INFORMATION WE COLLECT AND HOW WE USE IT

The categories of information we collect through our Sites are listed below. We
generally use the information we collect for the following purposes:

To provide educational services;

To provide the information, products and services you request;

To provide you with effective customer service;

To provide you with a personalized experience when you use our Sites;

To contact you with information and notices related to your use of our Sites;

To contact you with special offers and other information we believe will be of
interest to you (in accordance with any privacy preferences you have expressed
to us);

To invite you to participate in surveys and provide Feedback to us (in
accordance with any privacy preferences you have expressed to us);

To improve the content, functionality and usability of our Sites;

To better understand your needs and interests;

To improve our products and services;

To improve our marketing and promotional efforts;

For security, credit or fraud prevention purposes; and

For any other purpose identified in an applicable Privacy Notice, click-through
agreement or other agreement between you and us.

Information You Manually Provide. SEI collects the information you manually
provide (using your mouse, keyboard or touchscreen) when you use one of our
Sites. The information we collect depends on how you use our Sites, but, in many
cases, it will be Personal Information. For example, if you submit an
application, we collect the information you provide as part of the online
application process. Likewise, we collect the information you provide when you
create an account, post User-Generated Content or contact us with questions or
comments.

Information Others Provide. Others may also post information about you,
primarily (but not exclusively) as User-Generated Content. For example, if you
attend a graduation ceremony, someone may post photographs of you and others
that he/she took at the ceremony. All postings must comply with the requirements
for User-Generated Content as set forth in our Terms of Use.

Information From Third-Party Social Media Platforms. You may be able to register
with, log on to, or enhance your profile on our Sites by choosing to
automatically populate the requested data fields with information you previously
provided to a third-party social media platform (such as Facebook or Twitter).
By doing this, you are asking the third-party platform to send us information,
including Personal Information, from your profile on that platform. We treat
that information as we do any other information you give to us when you
register, log on or enhance your profile.

Information Sent to Us by Your Web Browser. We collect information that is sent
to us automatically by your web browser or mobile device. This information
typically includes your IP address, the name and version of your operating
system, the name and version of your browser, the date and time of your visit,
the website you were visiting before you visited one of our Sites and the pages
on our Sites you visit. Please check your browser if you want to learn what
information your browser sends or how to change your settings. This information
does not identify you personally. However, we may link information sent by your
browser to information that identifies you personally. For example, if you have
created a user identity by signing up to use a password-protected area of our
Sites, we may link your IP address to information that identifies you
personally.

Cookies and Other Technologies. We use “cookies” and other web technologies to
collect information and support certain features of our Sites. For example, we
may use cookies to:

Collect information about the ways visitors use our Sites—which pages they
visit, which links they use and how long they stay on each page;

Support the features and functionality of our Sites—for example, to save you the
trouble of reentering information already in our database or to prompt the
settings you established on previous visits;

Personalize your experience when you use our Sites; and

Improve our marketing efforts, including through use of targeted advertising.

Information collected by cookies does not identify you personally. However, we
may link information collected by cookies to information that identifies you
personally. If you do not wish to receive cookies, you may set your browser to
reject cookies or to alert you when a cookie is placed on your computer.
Although you are not required to accept cookies when you visit our Sites, you
may be unable to use all of the functionality of our Sites if your browser
rejects our cookies. In fact, if you are a SEI student, you may not be able to
fulfill course requirements if you set your browser to reject cookies.

HOW WE SHARE YOUR INFORMATION

With Third-Party Service Providers. We may share information collected through
our Sites with third parties that perform certain functions on our behalf. For
example, we may share information with companies that provide support services
to us or that help us improve and/or market our products and services (such as
third-party advertising companies). These service providers are permitted to use
any Personal Information we provide to them only to perform services on our
behalf and must treat it as strictly confidential.

With Other Users of Our Sites. Information contained in certain user-generated
content you post on this Site—such as UGC you post for social networking
purposes—can be read, collected or used by others. In addition, unless
prohibited by FERPA or other applicable law, we may use UGC you submit for
advertising campaigns and other promotions. We may or may not use your name in
connection with such use, and we may or may not seek your further consent before
using the content for such purposes. Therefore, you should have no expectation
of privacy with respect to UGC you submit on or through our Sites.

If, at any time, you wish us to remove UGC that you posted, please contact us at
the information below. Although we do not promise to remove UGC simply because
we receive a request to do so, we will consider reasonable requests and will
remove UGC when applicable law requires us to do so. Please be aware, however,
that if the UGC has already been distributed to other websites or published in
other media, we will not be able to recapture and delete it.

Within the SEI Family of Businesses. When you upload information to one of our
Sites, the owner of that Site may share your information with other members of
the SEI Family of Businesses. Before doing so, however, the owner of the Site
may offer you the opportunity to "opt out" or "opt in," as required by
applicable law. Every member of the SEI Family of Businesses is required to
handle information collected through our Sites in accordance with this Policy
and the privacy preferences you have expressed to us.

With Third-Party Social Media Platforms. We may provide functionality on our
Sites that allows you to automatically post information to a third-party social
media platform (such as Facebook, Twitter or Pinterest). If you choose to take
advantage of this functionality, people with access to your profile on the
third-party platform will be able to see your post. Thus, you should have no
expectation of privacy in those actions. Further, if you choose to link your
profile on our Sites with an account on a third-party social media platform, we
may share the information in your profile with that third-party platform. We may
also use third-party social media platforms to offer you interest-based ads. To
offer such ads, we may convert your email address into a unique value which can
be matched by our partner company with a user on their platform. Although we do
not provide any personal information to these platform vendors, they may gain
insights about individuals who respond to the ads we serve.

With Other, Carefully Selected Business Partners. From time to time, we may
share your information with selected third parties for their own marketing
purposes. For example, we may partner with third parties to sponsor contests or
other promotions, and we may share with these third parties the information you
submit to us to participate in the contest or take advantage of the promotion.
Before doing so, however, we may offer you the opportunity to “opt out” or “opt
in,” as required by applicable law.

In Aggregate or De-Identified form. We use information collected through our
Sites to create a compiled, aggregate view of usage patterns. We may share
aggregate information with third parties so they can better understand our user
base. We may also share with third parties information about how particular
individuals use our Sites, but only on a de-identified basis (“Individualized
Data”). Individualized Data is not personally identifiable, but it does reflect
the usage patterns of a particular individual, as opposed to site users
collectively. We may provide basic demographic information (gender and age) in
conjunction with providing Individualized Data. Third parties typically use this
information for analytical purposes and to market their own products and
services. It is possible that third parties will attempt to “re-identify”
de-identified data, and you should know that this is possible using external
points of reference.

As Part of a Business Transfer. Your information may be transferred in
connection with a corporate sale, purchase, merger, reorganization, liquidation,
dissolution or similar event. If such a transfer occurs, the successor
organization’s use of your information will still be subject to this Policy and
the privacy preferences you have expressed to us.

To Comply with Laws and Protect Our Rights and the Rights of Others. We may
disclose your information when we, in good faith, believe disclosure is
appropriate to comply with the reporting requirements of accrediting bodies or
the U.S. Department of Education or to comply with the law, a court order or a
subpoena. We may also disclose your information to prevent or investigate a
possible crime, such as fraud or identity theft; to protect the security of our
Sites; to enforce or apply our online Terms of Use or other agreements; or to
protect our own rights or property or the rights, property or safety of our
users or others.

As Described in a Privacy Notice or Country-Specific Notice. We reserve the
right to disclose your information as described in any Privacy Notice or
Country-Specific Notice posted on a page of our Sites where you provide that
information. By providing your information on that page you will be consenting
to the disclosure of your information as described in the notice. We also
reserve the right to disclose your information as described in any click-through
agreement to which you have agreed.

HOW WE PROTECT YOUR INFORMATION

We maintain reasonable administrative, physical and technological measures to
protect the confidentiality and security of Personal Information you submit on
or through our Sites. Unfortunately, no website, server or database is
completely secure or “hacker proof.” We therefore cannot guarantee that your
personal information will not be disclosed, misused or lost by accident or by
the unauthorized acts of others. Further, we cannot control dissemination of
personal information you post on or through our Sites using any social
networking tools we may provide, and you should have no expectation of privacy
in such information.

ONLINE COURSEROOM

Content You Submit to Courseroom. As a SEI online student, you will be expected
to generate original content and submit that content for evaluation by your
instructor through an online courseroom. The assignments you submit may be
accessible to your classmates. For example, a particular course may require you
to interact with your classmates through a discussion board in the courseroom,
and your instructor may grade you on your participation. You should understand
that if you post content in the courseroom in a manner accessible to your
classmates, it may be more widely disseminated. For example, one of your
classmates could re-post that content to another website.

As on any of our Sites, the content you submit to the courseroom must comply
with our Terms of Use and with any other applicable policies, such as the
student code of conduct.

SEI’s Use of Content You Submit to Courseroom. SEI uses the content you submit
to the courseroom primarily to evaluate your performance in a particular course
and to assign you a grade. In addition, feedback you submit during the course
and the instructor evaluation you submit at the end of a course may be used to
improve the course and other SEI products, programs and services. SEI may also
use information available through the courseroom for academic advising purposes
and may contact you about services and products that may be of interest to you.
For example, if you perform poorly in a particular course, SEI may use
information available through the courseroom to identify a remediation course
that may improve your performance, and it may contact you about enrolling in
that course. However, SEI will not use in any public advertising or promotional
campaign content you post to the courseroom solely for purposes of fulfilling a
course requirement.

A NOTE ON CHILDREN’S PRIVACY

SEI does not knowingly collect Personal Information from children under the age
of thirteen through our Sites. If you are under thirteen, please do not give us
any information that identifies you personally. If you have reason to believe
that your child has provided Personal Information to us through our Sites,
please contact us, and we will use reasonable efforts to delete that information
from our databases.
 

YOUR CALIFORNIA PRIVACY RIGHTS

LAST REVISED: JANUARY 1, 2020
 

INTRODUCTION

If you are a California user, you have certain rights with respect to the
collection, use, transfer and processing of your “personal information,” as
defined by the California Consumer Privacy Act (“CCPA”). The rights set forth in
this section also apply to any information collected offline. We reserve the
right to limit these rights where permitted under applicable law, including
where your identity cannot be reasonably verified or to the extent your rights
adversely affect the rights and freedoms of others. To exercise any of the
rights below, please contact us via the contact information below. Only you or a
person registered with the California Secretary of State that you authorize to
act on your behalf may make a verifiable consumer request related to your
personal information.

In the previous 12 months, SEI has collected the following categories of
Personal Information:

you because you exercised any of your privacy rights by, including, but not
limited to: denying goods or services to you; charging different prices or rates

requesting information or deletion is the California consumer about whom the

about you when you make a request to compare against our records. We may also
request that you sign a declaration under the penalty of perjury from the
consumer whose personal information is the subject of the request.

with us. We will only use Personal Information provided in your request to
verify your identity and will delete any information you provide after
processing the request. SEI reserves the right to take additional steps as
necessary to verify the identity of California consumers where we have reason to
believe a request is fraudulent.

you authorize to act on your behalf to submit your requests (“Authorized

the Authorized Agent with written permission to allow them to submit your

may result in SEI denying your request.
