We have created this statement to demonstrate our firm commitment to your privacy. This policy is your guide to how we will handle information we learn about you from your visit to our website.

By accessing this website, you agree to the terms set forth in this Privacy Policy. This Privacy Policy may be modified at any time.

In order to enhance our site to meet our visitors’ needs, we collect various types of information through cookies and information gathered through the submission forms.

The information that you voluntarily provide us

This site provides users the opportunity to request information for school programs or events. The submission forms require participants to provide the school with their contact information. The contact information provided by the participant is used only by us for phone, mail, and/or e-mail communication about the program or event about which you inquired.

We use third-party service providers to perform certain services, including to manage our enrollments, sell event tickets, take food orders, and collect donations you generously make towards Castilleja School programs. The third-party service providers may collect your bank or credit card information if you submit a payment, but that information is not passed on to Castilleja School. The third parties are responsible for conforming to information security industry standards for online transactions.
