Privacy Policy

AskListenLearn.org Privacy Policy

Welcome to AskListenLearn.org (the “Site”).  The Site is operated by the Foundation for Advancing Alcohol Responsibility (“FAAR,” “we,” or “us”), a not-for-profit organization dedicated to fighting drunk driving and underage drinking.  This privacy policy describes how we treat the information we collect through the Site.

Information we collect

Personal Information. When you register at the Site, we collect your parent’s e-mail address. We only use this information to notify your parent that you would like to register at the Site and to obtain parental consent. In addition, we may collect online contact information, such as your e-mail address, for the sole purpose of responding directly on a one-time basis to your specific request, after which we will delete the information from our records.

We do not otherwise knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. Should we learn that a child under 13 has provided us with personal information, we will delete that information from our database.

Non-Personal Information. We may collect and store any non-personal information that you choose to enter through the Site. We may require that you provide some non-personal information, such as your username, first name and last initial, hometown, and state, in order to register and participate in certain features we offer.

Automatic Information. We may automatically collect some information about your computer when you visit the Site. For example, we may collect your IP address, Web browser software (such as Internet Explorer), and referring web site. We also may collect information about your activity on the Site, such as information about your account usage. We may combine this automatically-gathered information with other information, including non-personal information we have collected about you.

Cookies. When you visit the Site, we may assign your computer a “cookie” (a small, unique identifier text file) to remember who you are. We also may include other information in our cookie files; for example, if you arrived at the Site via a link from a third-party site, we may include the URL of the linking page. We may combine the information we collect through cookies with other information, including non-personal information we have collected about you.

How we use this information

We may use the information we collect about you in certain ways, including:

  • Providing you with the information and services you request;
  • Managing your account;
  • Responding to your questions and comments;
  • Providing you with information about selected programs and services offered by FAAR, our partners, and other selected third parties;
  • Soliciting information and feedback from you, including through surveys and questionnaires;
  • Performing business analyses or for other purposes to improve the quality of our organization and the Site; and
  • As otherwise described to you at the point of collection or pursuant to your consent.

With whom we share this information

We may share the information we collect about you in limited circumstances, including:

  • With our authorized service providers that perform certain functions or services on our behalf (such as to transmit communications or advertising, or assist with the transactions you initiate);
  • To respond to subpoenas, court orders, or other legal process, in response to a request for cooperation from law enforcement or another government agency, or to establish or exercise our legal rights or defend against legal claims;
  • When we believe it is necessary to investigate, prevent, or take action regarding illegal activities, suspected fraud, or as otherwise required by law;
  • To enforce our Terms of Use and other agreements, or otherwise protect or defend the rights or property of FAAR, its affiliates and funders, or others, or the safety of the public;
  • In connection with a corporate transaction, such as a merger or asset sale;
  • In aggregated or another non-personally identifiable form to third parties for various business purposes, including business analyses; and
  • Otherwise pursuant to your consent.

How we protect your information

We have implemented procedures to help protect the personal information that you provide to us. However, no method of transmitting or storing electronic data is ever completely secure, and we cannot guarantee that such information will never be accessed, used, or released in a manner that is inconsistent with this policy.

How parents may access your information

Parents can review and have deleted their child’s information, and refuse to permit further collection or use of their child’s information. To do so, a parent should contact us at the [address, phone number, or e-mail address] provided below.

Additional privacy provisions for children under 13

If you are under 13, your parent has the option to consent to the collection and use of your personal information without consenting to the disclosure of that information to third parties.

If you are under 13, we will not condition your participation in an activity on your disclosure of more personal information than is reasonably necessary to participate in the activity.

A special word about public forums

Please keep in mind that whenever you voluntarily disclose information online in public forums, that information can be collected and used by others. For this reason, please do not post any personal information, such as your first and last name, address, e-mail address, telephone number, social security number, or any sensitive information, in any public forums.

External links

If any part of the Site links you to other websites, those web sites do not operate under this Privacy Policy. We recommend that you examine the privacy statements posted on those other sites to understand their procedures for collecting, using, and disclosing personal information.

Changes to this Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy in the future. We will notify you about material changes to this Privacy Policy by placing a prominent notice on the Site.
