Privacy Policy


It is Policy Analysis for California Education’s policy to respect your privacy regarding any information we may collect while operating our website.

Website Visitors

Like most website operators, Policy Analysis for California Education (PACE) collects non-personally-identifying information of the sort that web browsers and servers typically make available, such as the browser type, language preference, referring site, and the date and time of each visitor request. PACE’s purpose in collecting non-personally identifying information is to better understand how PACE’s visitors use its website. From time to time, PACE may release non-personally-identifying information in the aggregate, e.g., by publishing a report on trends in the usage of its website.

Gathering of Personally-Identifying Information

Certain visitors to PACE’s websites choose to interact with PACE in ways that require PACE to gather personally-identifying information. The amount and type of information that PACE gathers depends on the nature of the interaction. For example, we ask visitors who sign up for our email newsletter to provide an email address. PACE collects such information only insofar as is necessary or appropriate to fulfill the purpose of the visitor’s interaction with PACE. PACE does not disclose personally-identifying information other than as described below. And visitors can always refuse to supply personally-identifying information, with the caveat that it may prevent them from engaging in certain website-related activities.

Aggregated Statistics

PACE may collect statistics about the behavior of visitors to its websites. PACE may display this information publicly or provide it to others. However, PACE does not disclose personally-identifying information.

Cookies

A cookie is a string of information that a website stores on a visitor’s computer, and that the visitor’s browser provides to the website each time the visitor returns. PACE uses cookies to help identify and track visitors, their usage of the PACE website, and their website access preferences. PACE visitors who do not wish to have cookies placed on their computers should set their browsers to refuse cookies before using the PACE website.

Privacy Policy Changes

Although most changes are likely to be minor, PACE may change its Privacy Policy from time to time, and in PACE’s sole discretion. PACE encourages visitors to frequently check this page for any changes to its Privacy Policy. Your continued use of this site after any change in this Privacy Policy will constitute your acceptance of such change.
