1. When this notice applies

Our sites

This notice applies to personal data we collect, including through our website, electronic forms, and surveys  (collectively, “our site”).

Links to third-party sites

This notice does not apply to any third-party sites that may link to, or be accessible from, our site. Your interactions with these sites are governed by the third parties’ applicable privacy notices, statements, or policies. We encourage you to read them.

2. What data we collect about you

Data you provide about yourself

We collect your personal data when you voluntarily provide it to us. For example, you may give us your email address if you choose to be a subscriber or receive other information from us; your contact information, and any other personal data you choose to include, if you email us through our site; and any personal data contained in feedback, comments, photos, videos, or other information you submit via online portals, forms, surveys, or interactive portions of our site.

It is always your choice whether to provide this personal data. Please do not disclose more personal data than is requested.

Personal data you provide about others

Do not provide personal data about others unless you are authorized or required to do so by contract or applicable law. You may provide personal data on behalf of another person if you have provided them with a copy of this notice and obtained their explicit consent. We may ask you to provide evidence of that notice and consent.

Data we receive from third parties and other sources

We may receive personal data about you from other sources, including your company/organization. For example, we may receive your personal data if: someone at your company/organization designates you as a contact person for that company/organization or another visitor includes it in any feedback, comments, photos, videos, or other information submitted via online portals, electronic forms, surveys, or interactive portions of our site

Data we collect automatically, including cookies and similar technologies

We may collect some personal data automatically. For example, when you visit the Learn Foundation Law website, we may collect your Internet Protocol (IP) address, Internet service provider (ISP), and browser type and language. We also may use cookies and similar technologies to collect data about your interaction with our sites, including referring webpage, pages visited on our sites, and crash data. Please see Cookies & Similar Technologies for more information, including how to manage cookies and similar technologies.

Special categories of data

We will not intentionally collect any “special categories of data” under the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) without your explicit consent for one or more specified purposes or as otherwise permitted or required by applicable law. Special categories of data include personal data (a) revealing racial or ethnic origin, political opinions, religious or philosophical beliefs, or trade union membership; or (b) concerning health or data concerning a natural person’s sex life or sexual orientation. 

Minors

Our sites are not intended for minors (individuals under the age of 13, or equivalent minimum age depending on jurisdiction), and we do not knowingly collect personal data from minors. If you become aware of any personal data we have collected from a minor, please contact us. If we learn that we have collected personal data from a minor, we will take steps to delete the data without notice as soon as possible.

3. How we use your data

Purposes

We may use your personal data to: send you information about Learn Foundation Law [with your consent]; administer, safeguard, and improve our site and/or comply with applicable law, court order, subpoena, or legal process served on us [to comply with legal obligations].

Legal bases under the GDPR

If you are in the European Union, we will collect and use your personal data only if we have one or more legal bases for doing so under the GDPR. The legal bases depend on your interaction with us and our site. This means we collect and use your personal data only where: you have given your consent for one or more specific purposes; it is necessary for our legitimate interests (or those of a third party) and your interests and fundamental rights do not override those interests; it is necessary to protect the vital interests of you or another natural person; or it is necessary to comply with a legal obligation. We will indicate in brackets the legal basis or bases on which we are relying following each purpose. Where we are relying on consent as the legal basis, we will notify you and seek additional consent before using your personal data for a new purpose that is inconsistent with the original purpose for which we collected it.

4. When we share your data

Employees, agents, affiliates, service providers, and partners

We may share your personal data with our Learn Foundation Law member foundations, including their employees, agents, and affiliates who have a business need to know, our services providers (including contingent workers, consultants, contractors, vendors, and out-sourced service providers) to process it for us based on our instructions and for no other purpose, and with partners that are collaborating with us to fund projects . We do not share your personal data with any third party (including our service providers) for marketing purposes. If you believe personal data you provided to us is being misused by a third party, please contact us right away.

Law enforcement

We may share your personal data with law enforcement, other government agencies or authorities, or third parties as required by applicable law, court order, subpoena, or legal process served on us.

5. How we store and protect your data

Storage and transfers

Your personal data may be stored in your region or in any other country where we or our service providers have facilities. We may also allow employees and service providers of the Learn Foundation Law member foundations located around the world to access personal data as provided in this notice. If you are in the European Union, we will ensure your legal rights and protections travel with any such “transfer” of your personal data outside the European Economic Area, Switzerland, or Canada. We do this by signing “standard contractual clauses” approved by the European Commission that give personal data the same protection it has in the European Union, and/or requiring that our service providers be certified under the EU-US Privacy Shield Framework or Swiss-US Privacy Shield Framework, as applicable

Storage period

We will store your personal data until it is no longer needed to fulfill the purpose(s) for which it was collected or as otherwise required or permitted by law. After such time, we will either delete or anonymize your personal data or, if this is not possible, we will securely store your personal data and isolate it from any further use until deletion is possible. We may dispose of any data in our discretion without notice, subject to applicable law. Please contact us if you would like more details regarding our retention periods for different categories of personal data.

Protection

As the transmission of data via the internet is not completely secure, we cannot guarantee the security of your information transmitted to our sites and any such transmission is at your own risk. However, we maintain appropriate technical and organizational measures, including performing regular self-assessments, to prevent unauthorized disclosure of, or access to, personal data. We limit access to personal data and require that employees authorized to access personal data maintain the confidentiality of that data. We hold our service providers to at least the same data privacy and security standards to which we hold ourselves.

6. How you can access and control your data

Access and control

Generally, newsletters, auto-generated emails, and updates from us will include links to access, correct, or delete your personal data and to manage any subscriptions directly. If you wish to obtain confirmation that we hold personal data about you, access, correct, or delete your personal data, withdraw any consent you previously provided to us, or object to or restrict our processing of it in any other context, please contact us. We will respond to all legitimate requests within 30 days.

Other rights

To the extent provided by applicable laws (including the GDPR), you also may have the right to have the data or content deactivated, blocked, anonymized, or deleted, as appropriate, request and receive a copy of the personal data you have provided us and to transmit this data to a third party, and lodge a complaint with the applicable data protection authority. To exercise any of these rights that you are not able to do directly, please contact us.

You have no continuing right to use the Site– it is like a store and each time you visit you will be subject to the version of the Terms in effect on your visit.

Notice to You

You agree that we may give all notices we are required to give you by posting notice on the Site or, if we have your email address, by sending notice by email at our discretion, including (without limitation), disclosures that we are required to give you, legal notices, notice of subpoenas or other legal process (if any), and all other communications. When we communicate by email, we may use any email address you provide when communicating with us or that we otherwise have in our records, so only supply to us an email address at which you are willing to receive all communications. You agree to check for notices posted on the Site.

Notice to Us (Our Legal Notices Address)

We receive many emails and not all employees are trained to deal with every kind of communication. Accordingly, you agree to send us notice by mailing it to the following (“Our Legal Notice Address”):

Palo Alto, CA 94304
Attn: Legal Department

12. Termination or Cancellation; No Continuing Rights

You have no continuing right to use the Site and we may deny or suspend access, or terminate or cancel this agreement with or without cause and at any time and without prior notice.

Termination or cancellation will not eliminate the surviving provisions of these Terms (see “Entire Agreement; Miscellaneous”) and you will still be liable for obligations incurred before the agreement or access ended.

13. Entire Agreement; Miscellaneous

These Terms, including the Privacy Notice, Amendments and any: (a) notices, terms and items incorporated into any of them; (b) additional terms and conditions contained on the Site for particular activities or Content; and (c) our disclosures and your consents provided on or in connection with the Site or any Content, service or other activity; constitute the entire agreement between you and the Foundation regarding the Complete Site or the subject matter of the foregoing (collectively, “Entire Agreement”). If any provision of the Entire Agreement is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, its remaining provisions will remain in full force and effect, provided that the allocation of risks described herein is given effect to the fullest extent possible. The foregoing does not impair the enforceability of additional agreements you enter into such as an agreement for a grant.

Our failure to act with respect to a breach by you does not waive our right to act with respect to subsequent or similar breaches. Time is of the essence of the Entire Agreement and there are no third-party beneficiaries of it. The terms of this Section 13, Sections  2, 4 through 7, and 10 through 13 and our rights under the Privacy Notice will survive termination or cancellation of this Entire Agreement. You may print or make an electronic copy of the Entire Agreement for your official records; to the extent required by law, we hereby instruct you to do so. You may not assign these Terms or any of your rights or obligations under these Terms without our prior written consent.

14. Electronic Transactions

We and each of the Third Parties may deal with you electronically now and in the future in their respective discretion during the entire course of activities pursued with you (e.g., applying for, obtaining, implementing, terminating and enforcing a grant or anything else), including but not limited to having you electronically sign documents and receive electronic notices. We and each of the Third Parties also reserves the right to deal non-electronically and to require you to do so.
