Information gathering
Merrimack College uses your IP address to help diagnose problems with our server and to administer our website by identifying (1) which parts of our site are most heavily used, and (2) we do not link IP addresses to anything personally identifiable. This means user sessions will be tracked, but the users will remain anonymous.
Merrimack College staff occasionally monitors search terms users enter into the site’s Google Search Engine, but this tracking is never associated with individual users.
Completing a submission form will serve as an official signature, providing consent to representatives of Merrimack College contacting me about educational opportunities via text, email, mail, phone, including my mobile phone if provided, and those calls may be placed using an automatic dialer. I understand my consent is not a requirement for enrollment.
When registering, I understand I may be asked to enter my name, e-mail address, or phone number.
