My Tutoring Service understands that our users are concerned about submitting personal information either through our website or other means. Our users’ individual privacy rights are important to us. For this reason, we provide this explanation of our data handling practices.

Our privacy guidelines are solely governed by Virginia statutes including, but not limited to, the Virginia Privacy Protection Act, MTS (My Tutoring Service).

This notice in no manner serves to represent a contract between MTS and you (the reader or any person who submits, in any form, information to MTS).

How We Gather Information

At My Tutoring Service, we have many ways that our users can submit data to us. One of the most convenient ways is to complete a web form. These forms collect information from our users and send it to the proper recipient MTS. In addition, we also collect information via other means such as electronic mail (Email), telephone calls, and postal mail.

While using the internet to connect to MTS, some technical information is automatically collected for statistical reference. Though these items may not necessarily identify an individual, we want our users to know that this information is recorded without any causal action on their behalf. These items are as follows:

• The Internet address (IP address) of the machine our users are using to connect to MTS. This may also produce a coordinating host and domain name for our users’ computers.
• The type of Internet Browser our users are using to connect to MTS. Also, the pages our users are requesting from our site.
• The site from which our users immediately left when visiting MTS. Also, any «cookie» related information as described in this notice.

What Are [Internet Browser] «Cookies»?

Cookies are files that exist on client computers that contain information to help us better serve our users’ needs. They may help us remember customized settings so that each time a user returns to MTS, we create a custom view just for that user. For our users’ personal security, browsers have settings that allow each user to control how cookies are stored and when and how they are removed. We may use cookies and technologies to record sessions and collect data to improve users’ experience. Any information gained from cookies is governed by the same guidelines as information our users purposely submit to MTS.

Internet Browser «Do Not Track» Feature

Some browsers incorporate a «Do Not Track» (DNT) feature that, when activated, signals to websites that you do not want to be tracked. Because there is not yet an accepted standard for how to respond to browser DNT signals, we do not currently respond to them.

How We Use Information

Information we gain from any person is used for official My Tutoring Service purposes only. We do not share, sell, or loan data to any organization for purposes not relating to our direct efforts. There are times that we may share data to meet federal regulations, to facilitate large campaigns, comply with law enforcement, or distribute special offers to our users. As such, our users should have any reasonable expectation of absolute privacy (see our Acceptable Use Policy for further guidance).

In the course of general business, employees and partners’ employees will have access to data our users submit. For this reason, we take precautions to ensure that we protect our users’ data while in our control or while in the control of our campaign partners.
