Third party advertising

We may use third-party advertising companies to serve ads when you visit our Web site. These companies may use information (which will never include your name, address, email address or telephone number) about your visits to this and other Web sites solely in order to provide advertisements on this site and other sites about goods and services that may be of interest to you.

Some of these advertisers have the ability to deposit cookies on your computer in order to track performance and to limit the number of times a particular banner is shown to you. The information collected from these cookies is not shared with ABT Language Services.

Like the links we provide to other web sites, these third-party servers are not covered by ABT Language Services' privacy policy.

Traffic Statistics

We have contracted with Overture services, Inc. ("Overture") to monitor certain pages of our Web site for the purpose of reporting web traffic, statistics, advertisement 'click-throughs', and/or other activities on our site. Where authorized by us, Overture may use cookies, Web beacons, and/or other monitoring technologies to compile anonymous statistics on our Web site visitors. No personally identifiable data is collected by or transferred to Overture. For more information about how the information collected by Overture is used, please see Overture's privacy policy at http://www.overture.com/d/USm/about/company/ccprivacypolicy.jhtml.

Registration Forms

Our site's registration form requires users to give us and our recommended schools contact information (like their name, email, and postal address), and demographic information (like their zip/postal code and age).

While we have no control over the use of this information by our recommended schools, the contact information from the registration forms supplied to ABT is used only to provide information about our company. The customer's contact information may also be used to send promotional material about some of our partners to our customers, and to get in touch with the customer when necessary.

Users may opt-out of receiving future mailings from ABT. Please see the choice/opt-out section below.

Demographic and profile data is also collected at our site. We use this data to tailor our visitor's experience at our site showing them content that we think they might be interested in, and displaying the content according to their preferences.

Children's Guidelines

We care about children and understand that they have special privacy needs. Therefore, we have adopted the following privacy policy regarding children:

1. We will NOT collect, use, or distribute to third parties personally identifiable information without prior verifiable parental consent.
2. We will NOT give the child access to unmonitored chat rooms, message boards, email accounts, or other services that would give the child the ability to publicly post or otherwise distribute personally identifiable information without prior verifiable parental consent
3. When verifiable parental consent is not obtained, we will only use the online contact information (such as email) to:
   1. Respond directly to the child's request on a one-time basis and not use that information to re-contact the child for other purposes.
   2. Request the name or online contact information of a parent for the purpose of obtaining verifiable parental consent or providing parental notification.
   3. Respond more than once directly to a specific request from a child (such as in the case where a child requests a newsletter subscription) and the information gathered from this request will not be used to re-contact the child for other purposes. We will use our best efforts to provide parental notification, which will include the nature and intended use as well as an opportunity for the parent to prevent the use of the information and participation in the activity.
4. We will NOT entice the child to divulge more information than is needed to participate in any activity, game, or service.
5. We will provide the parent a description of the specific types of personally identifiable information collected from their child upon request. We will allow the parent to refuse further use or future online collection of personally identifiable information and provide a way for a parent to obtain any personally identifiable information collected from their child.
6. We will provide notice to children in age appropriate terms of what personally identifiable information is to be collected.
7. We will NOT provide any links to Web sites that are unsuitable for children.
8. We will encourage children to get their parent's permission before sharing personal information online.
