Pearson Education Privacy Policy

General Information About The Privacy Policy For Pearson Education Online Products

Pearson Education online products are maintained by Pearson Education, Inc., One Lake Street, Upper Saddle River, New Jersey 07458.

Pearson Education recognizes the importance of protecting the privacy of the Personal Identifying Information of online products users. We consider the following to be Personal Identifying Information: your first and last name, address, email address, phone number, date of birth, or other personal information that can be used to contact you either online or offline. Pearson Education does not collect Personal Identifying Information about a user, except for information that is voluntarily provided to our Company so that we can serve the user’s needs and our legitimate business purposes. (For example, when a user subscribes to an online resource, we need to retain Personal Identifying information in order to maintain the subscription in our database). A user’s Personal Identifying Information may be used by our company to help us improve our products, and also for our company’s marketing and promotional purposes. It will be treated confidentially within our company. Our policy is not to share this information with third parties, but we may share this information with other companies within Pearson Education, Inc. and with other companies acting as our agents.

Pearson Education subscription web sites require the use of Internet browser cookies to facilitate subscription processing, and to validate user role (instructor, student, etc.) upon login. These cookies are session based and expire when the Internet browser is shut down. Except as stated above, Pearson Education does not share this information with third parties, nor does Pearson Education use it for any purpose other than facilitating the user’s experience.

Users should be reminded that any Personal Identifying Information that is voluntarily posted by a user to a public area of this web site (for example, a posting to a bulleting board or chat room) might be collected and used by others. We cannot prevent such uses.

Special Notice To Parents:

We have no intention of seeking the Personal Identifying Information of children (children under age 13). If we can actually identify a user of our online products as a child, any Personal Identifying Information provided by the child will not be used for further marketing and promotion and such information will be deleted from our records. We encourage you to ask your children to seek your permission before providing information about themselves or their family over the Internet.

Special Notice To Children:

Ask your parent or guardian for permission before you send any personal information over the Internet.
