Privacy Policy

The Madison County School System is committed to protecting your online privacy. Any information provided to us through the Madison County School System website, such as email address, name, or phone number, will never be sold or traded to other schools, nonprofit organizations, or businesses without your consent. The Madison County School System might use this information to contact you about information or requests you have made using our web services.

Information Gathered Automatically
Unless you take steps to browse the internet anonymously, the Madison County School System website tracks browsing patterns to inform the district about how our websites are being used. These patterns are tracked using generic information that may be collected using “cookies,” text files placed on your computer. The use of these files can be blocked by using appropriate browser settings; however, this may result in a loss of functionality on Madison County School System websites. Information the website collects in this way is based on your IP address, which identifies your network location and does not include other personally identifiable information unless provided directly by the user (e.g., filling out an online form).

Madison County School System websites utilize Google Analytics, a service Google, Inc. provides, to analyze how users interact with our sites. Information used for this process is transmitted and stored by Google on its servers. In some rare cases, Google may transfer this information to third parties where required to do so by law. Google does not associate your IP address with any other personally identifiable data. For more details on the shared information, visit Google’s terms of service and privacy policy pages.

Information Provided by End-Users
To allow the Madison County School System to communicate effectively with individuals using our websites, we may ask for personally identifiable information such as name, email address, or phone number. The Madison County School System will never sell or trade personally identifiable information that is voluntarily provided unless consent is provided or the district is required to do so by law.

Some parts of the Madison County School System website may contain links to external websites not owned by or officially affiliated with the Madison County School System. The Madison County School System is not responsible for the privacy practices or content of these external websites in any way.
