Prizmah is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Statement, which is part of our Terms of Use, describes the information we collect through www.prizmah.org (“Our Site”), how we use and share it, and how you can make choices about our use of that information.
By using Our Site, you consent to our collection, use, and sharing of information as described in these Terms of Use.
Collection of Personal Information
We collect personally identifiable information about you (“Personal Information”), such as your name, email address, mailing address, phone number, profession and employment, and other information, when you voluntarily provide it to us. For instance, we may collect Personal Information when you sign up for the Prizmah email mailing list, register as a professional or lay leader of a Prizmah member school, or subscribe to Prizmah’s journal, HaYidion. We may also collect Personal Information about others (such as names and emails), which you voluntarily provide, to encourage them to participate in Prizmah activities, such as registering for a Prizmah conference or signing up for our email mailing list. If you provide any Personal Information about others, you agree that you have the right and permission from those individuals to provide such information and for Prizmah to collect and use that Personal Information for the purpose for which it was provided.
We will use your Personal Information for the purposes for which you provided it. You agree that we may also send you information about news, events, or opportunities that we think may be of interest to you. If you no longer wish to receive communications from us, you can unsubscribe by (i) clicking on the “unsubscribe” button in the email you receive from us;
(ii) changing your preferences in your Account profile; (iii) emailing us at [email protected], or (iv) calling us at 646-975-2800.
Other Information; Cookies and Other Technologies
We may also collect other information about visitors to Our Site, such as the time and date of visits to Our Site, the length of the visit, the web pages viewed during a visit, the links followed, the order of pages viewed, the type of web browser used, the web site that referred or linked you to Our Site, the web site you visited upon leaving Our Site, the domain name associated with your computer, and the IP address associated with your computer (which is the number assigned to the visitor’s computer to identify its location on the Internet).
We collect some of this information through cookies which are small data files placed on your computer. You are not required to accept cookies from Our Site and may disable the cookies function, or delete existing cookies, by using your web browser’s options. If you disable cookies, certain features of Our Site may not work as intended. We may use this information to analyze how visitors use Our Site so we can improve the quality of the information and services we provide.
We and our Service Providers may also use clear GIFs (also known as web beacons, web bugs or spotlight or pixel tags) and similar technologies (collectively, “Technologies”) in connection with the Site for such purposes as tracking the activities of visitors to compile statistics about Site usage and enhance the experience of our visitors.
We and our Service Providers also may use Technologies in HTML-formatted e-mail messages to help us track e-mail response rates, measure the success of our marketing campaigns, and identify when our e-mails are viewed or forwarded. These Technologies are generally tiny graphics with a unique identifier, similar in function to cookies. However, in contrast to cookies, which are stored on your computer's hard drive, clear GIFs are embedded invisibly on website pages.
We do not use information derived from cookies or Technologies to identify visitors individually except in circumstances where we may deem it necessary in connection with legal process or to protect our rights or the rights of a third party as further described below.
Sharing Information with Third Parties
We may share your Personal Information with our service providers that help us operate and provide services in connection with Our Site (“Service Providers”).

Of course, if we ever spin off as a separate entity, merge with, are acquired by, or otherwise consolidate with another organization, Personal Information may be transferred along with our other assets.
