Automatic Data Collection
Like most Web servers on the Internet, our servers collect and store all of the information that your web browser sends when it requests a web page, including:
• the name, domain, and numerical internet address of the "host" computer (typically a computer belonging to your Internet Service Provider and not your personal computer) from which you access the Internet. For example, your host computer's name and its numerical address
• the date and time you accessed our site
• the Internet address of the web page that you came from
• the page you requested from our site and the number of characters sent to your computer
• the information your web browser software sends as its so-called "User Agent," which typically identifies the browser software and may also indicate the operating system and type of CPU used in your personal computer
The Schwab Foundation for Social Entrepreneurship periodically summarizes and analyzes these log files to learn how visitors use content on the site. This information is used to allocate resources effectively and to improve the content, organization and performance of our site. This process does not collect, store or use personally-identifying information such as name, address, telephone number or e-mail address.

Electronic Mail
When you send us personal identifying information via e-mail (that is, in a message containing a question or comment), we use it to respond to your requests. We may forward your e-mail to other employees of the Schwab Foundation for Social Entrepreneurship who are better able to answer your questions. We do not retain or distribute lists of e-mail addresses to any parties outside of the Schwab Foundation for Social Entrepreneurship. In no event, do we distribute lists of e-mail addresses to any outside parties. Information collected via e-mail will be retained at our discretion in a directly readable form as long as necessary to complete our response.

Cookies
A cookie is simply a small piece of information that a web server asks your browser to store on your local computer, and then later your browser presents this information to the web server. In its simplest form, a cookie is just an identifying number.
The Schwab Foundation for Social Entrepreneurship uses cookies for anonymous visitor tracking. The Schwab Foundation for Social Entrepreneurship web server assigns each visitor a unique numerical ID. All requests for pages are tagged with that ID, and by analyzing log files, we can determine how many unique visitors used the site.
We do not know the identity of a person based on the numerical ID. The cookies used on our website do not contain any personal information about visitors, nor are they used to look up personal information about visitors. Even if you have entered information about yourself in one of our registration forms, we do not relate that information to the cookie data.
By using this site, you signify your agreement with the Schwab Foundation for Social Entrepreneurship's privacy policy. We reserve the right, at our discretion, to change, modify, add or remove portions of this policy at any time. Your continued use of this website following changes to these terms means you accept those changes.
