Use of Cookies

A cookie is a piece of information that a web server may place on your computer when you visit a website. Cookies are commonly used by websites to improve the user experience and have not been known to transmit computer viruses or harm your computer otherwise. Many cookies last only through a single website session, or visit. Others may have an expiration date, or may remain on your computer until you delete them.

We may use cookies for a number of purposes—for example, to maintain continuity during a user session, to gather data about the usage of our website for research and other purposes, to store your preferences for certain kinds of information and marketing offers, or to store a username or encrypted identification number so that you do not have to provide this information every time you return to our website. When someone visits the site, a cookie is placed on the customer’s machine (if the customer accepts cookies) or is read if the customer has visited the website previously.

Our cookies will only track your online activity related to this website, and will not track your other internet activity. Our cookies do not gather personally identifiable information.

You can decide if and how your computer will accept a cookie by configuring your preferences or options in your browser. However, if you choose to reject cookies, you may not be able to use certain of our online products and services or website features. For example, if you choose to not have your browser accept cookies from St. Catherine’s website, you will need to re-enter your personal information each time that you attempt to access premium information.

An IP address is a unique identifier that certain electronic devices use to identify and communicate with each other on the internet. When you visit our website, we may view the IP address of the device you use to connect to the internet. We use this information to determine the general physical location of the device and understand from what regions of the world our website visitors come. We also may use this information to enhance our website.

Security

This website takes every precaution to protect our users' personal information. Whenever users submit personal information (such as contact or credit card information) via online forms, registration, or online purchase, that information is encrypted via the highest level of SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) available upon submission. Servers that store personally identifiable information are in a secure environment. Under no circumstances are credit card numbers permanently stored on our website servers.
