The privacy of those who visit our website is important to us. We support the goals and guidelines set forth by oversight laws and bodies such as the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act of 1998 (COPPA), the Center for Medical Education (CME), the Children’s Advertising Review Unit (CARU) of the Council of Better Business Bureaus and other organizations devoted to providing online safety and privacy for children, households, parents and schools.

We design and operate our technology and services with our Users’ protection and privacy in mind. This Privacy Policy outlines the types of information we gather when Users access CatholicQuiz.com technology and services, as well as some of the steps we take to safeguard it against unauthorized use.

Data collection

CatholicQuiz.com does not routinely collect personally identifying information from Users entering our website. We may make use of a standard feature found in browser software, called a “cookie”, to assign each visitor a unique, random number. Cookies allow us to track the pages on our sites visited by Users and to collect other statistical information. Using cookies helps us to deliver a more personalized service to our Users and to improve our services.

CatholicQuiz.com does not knowingly collect or maintain personal information from any Person under the age of 18 (“Minors”). Minors may not use our website without parental consent. If we learn that any personal information about any Minor has been collected without parental consent, then we will take reasonable steps to delete any such information.

A note to kids under 18: Please get permission from your parents before using our website or sending any e-mail to us or to anyone on the Internet. If you wish to subscribe to our website, your parents need to complete the subscription form for you.

From those Users who order services or products from us, we collect limited usage information in connection with user logins and passwords in order to monitor subscription/membership compliance. This information is kept confidential and is not shared or sold to third parties. As part of our subscription/membership and registration process, members are asked to voluntarily submit limited personal information in order to create an account (typically name, age, email address, affiliation, phone number, payment information, unique password, etc.).

CatholicQuiz.com will not sell or market directly to minors and always seeks parental or legal guardian’s authorization whenever we identify that a minor attempts to purchase a CatholicQuiz.com product or service or provide personally-identifiable information to us.

Security Practices

When a User enters sensitive information (such as credit card numbers) on our registration or order forms, we encrypt that information using encryption techniques common in e-commerce, such as secure socket layer technology (SSL). To learn more about SSL, follow this link: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Secure_Sockets_Layer.
We follow generally accepted industry standards to protect the personal information submitted to us, both during transmission and while maintaining this information. However, no method of transmission over the Internet, or method of electronic storage, is 100% secure.

Therefore, while we strive to use commercially acceptable means to protect your personal information, we cannot and do not guarantee the information’s absolute security.

We will use subscription/membership or registration information provided by Users only to provide or update our services, and we will not sell or license that information to third parties.

Newsletters and Service-Related Announcements

If a User wishes to subscribe to our newsletter(s), we will use his or her name and email address to send the newsletter. Out of respect for privacy, we provide a simple way to unsubscribe from the newsletter.
We will send Users service-related announcements on rare occasions when it is necessary or advisable to do so. For instance, if our service is temporarily suspended for maintenance, we might send an informational email.
