Web Privacy Policy

Commitment to Individual Privacy

CSU Global is committed to protecting the privacy and accuracy of confidential information submitted by employees, students, and visitors to our website. We do not actively share personal information gathered. However, because CSU Global is a public institution, some information collected from the CSU Global website may be subject to the Colorado Public (Open) Records Act. Thus, in some cases we may be compelled by law to release information gathered from our Web servers. This may include server log information, e-mail messages sent to an individual identified on the website, and information collected from Web-based forms.

Colorado Public (Open) Records Act (C.R.S. 24-72 201 ET SEQ.)

It is the declared public policy of the State of Colorado that all public records shall be open for inspection by any person at reasonable times, except as otherwise provided by law. Public Records are defined by this law as all writings made or maintained by a state institution, such as CSU Global, regardless of the format or medium of the records.

Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (20 U.S.C. §1232G)

CSU Global also complies with the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA), which generally prohibits the release of students’ education records without consent. FERPA only applies to currently enrolled students. For more information on FERPA please refer to the Student Rights and Responsibilities Section of the CSU Global General Catalog.

Information Collection

It is CSU Global’s policy to collect the least amount of personally identifiable information required to fulfill its required duties and responsibilities, to complete a particular transaction or as required by law. This policy applies to the collection of all personally identifiable information, regardless of the source or medium.

For site administration functions, information, other than personal information linked to a particular individual, is collected for analysis and statistical purposes of website navigation. This information is used to help diagnose problems, assess what information is of most interest, determine technical design specifications, identify system performance and/or problem areas, and other administration functions. CSU Global does not share any personal information, including SMS opt-in consent, with any third-party organizations.

You may choose whether or not to provide personal information to CSU Global via the Internet. If you choose not to provide the personal information we request, you can still visit most of CSU Global’s websites, but you may be unable to access certain options, offers, and services that involve our interaction with you.

Security

Wherever your personal information may be held within CSU Global or on its behalf, we intend to take reasonable and appropriate steps to protect the information that you share with us from unauthorized access or disclosure.
