You can visit our website without revealing personal information; however, we may ask for personal information in order to provide services you request. Personal information submitted will be used by Cape Fear Academy only to conduct official school business and will not be transferred to any non-affiliated third parties unless otherwise stated at the time of collection. All of the information that we collect from you is subject to this Privacy Policy and Terms of Use. By using this site, you agree to be bound by these terms.
Our Policies
terms of use
The Cape Fear Academy website is intended to provide news and information about our school. No part of this site or its contents — including, but not limited to the school logo — may be copied, reproduced, modified, retransmitted, distributed, published, or otherwise transferred without written permission from Cape Fear Academy.
email privacy
The website contains email addresses for faculty and staff. Use of this information for private, commercial, or political mailing and/or distribution to any outside party is prohibited.
online giving and credit card purchases
We are committed to the privacy of all our parents and donors, and we take every precaution to protect our users’ personal information. Donations and payments to Cape Fear Academy are managed by secure third party vendors. If you make an online purchase or donation, upon submission that information is encrypted using SSL (Secured Sockets Layer), an industry standard secure technology designed to prevent the theft or interception of the information you provide. Credit card billing information is used only to obtain payment from the appropriate credit card firm and to fulfill the user’s request, and is not stored or otherwise retained by Cape Fear Academy after the transaction is complete.
cookies
A cookie is a small text file stored by your browser that allows the website to “remember” your preferences (such as calendar settings and site bookmarks) on the site from visit to visit, or to maintain your “logged in” status when visiting protected areas. Usage of a cookie is in no way linked to any personally identifiable information while on our site. Web browsers have settings allowing you to reject cookies, or selectively accept cookies, or delete cookies previously accepted. Please be aware that rejecting or deleting cookies from our website may make certain functions unavailable to you.
log files
Like most standard website servers, we use website statistic packages such as Google Analytics to analyze trends in how our website is accessed and utilized. Information monitored includes internet protocol (IP) addresses, geographic location of visitors (country, city), browser type, internet service provider (ISP), referring/exit pages, platform type, date/time stamp, time spent on pages, and keywords used to find our site via search engines. We may use it to identify high-use or low-use areas of the site, pinpoint problem areas of the site, analyze broad demographic trends in our visitors, and make decisions about how to make it easier for people to find and navigate our website.
Google Analytics will associate the visitation information it collects from our site with Google information from accounts of signed-in users who have consented to this association for the purpose of ads personalization. This Google information may include end user location, search history, YouTube history, and data from sites that partner with Google — and is used to provide aggregated and anonymized insights into our website users' cross device behaviors. Such data may be accessed and/or deleted by website users via My Activity in their Google accounts.
external links
Our site contains links to other sites, but Cape Fear Academy is not responsible for the privacy policies or content provided by these sites. We encourage our users to be aware when they leave our site and to read the privacy statements of each and every website that collects personally identifiable information. This privacy statement applies solely to information collected by the Cape Fear Academy website.
