Visiting:
When you visit a website,
various types of information can be collected.
EducatingJane.com uses a program to help us track our
visitors. This program provides us with information about
our site visitors. The information we collect and
store on our server is as follows: the name of the domain
and host where you accessed the Internet (ie. aol.com, oio.com,
att.net, or osu.edu), the date and time of your visit, and the
number of pages that you viewed while here. We
also keep track of the links you used to get
here and the type of Internet browser you use.
- This information is used
to measure the number of visitors to different sections of our
site, and to help us develop the site more effectively and
make it more useful.
-
- An example of what we do
with this information would be redesigning pages or deleting
pages based on how many visitors it gets compared to
others. The Biology page
in the Study Hall section gets
more hits than other sections in the study hall. We may
model other pages after the Biology page in order to increase
popularity.
Participating:
There are several surveys on
this site. The purpose of these surveys is:
- to be able to respond to
your questions
- to get your feedback
- to better understand the
nature of the site's visitors
- to give you a forum to
share your thought, ideas, and successes with other girls
If you choose to take part
in one of them, this is what we do with the information you
provide.

This survey is to see who our visitors think are the greatest
women in history. You are not required to submit your email
address. We may post the results of your survey with out any
identifying information. We will use your first name and the

E-mail discussion groups
and lists:
We have several e-mail discussion groups. The groups for parents
and educators
are open groups, which means that anyone can join or unsubscribe
to the groups on their own. These groups are maintained by EducatingJane.com. If you sign
up for EducatingJane.com's e-mail list, you will be automatically
added to the Newsletter list . This is how we
maintain the mailing list and give our visitors newsletters and
site information. The e-mail discussion list for
girls is a moderated, private list. This means that you have
to be accepted to join. You can be automatically removed and
banned from any of the above lists without notice. EducatingJane.com does not give the e-mail addresses of its
visitors to advertiser or third parties.
