Marquette University recognizes and values the privacy of our guests, and we are committed to respecting your privacy by providing an understanding of what information we collect and how we use it.
The following privacy policy outlines the terms and conditions of the collection and use of any information – both automatically collected and directly provided – that Marquette University may receive from users of Marquette.edu and all pages within. Marquette University reserves the right to modify this privacy policy at any time.
There are two ways through which Marquette.edu collects information: Directly provided by the user, or automatically collected, either through Marquette.edu’s technology or through third-party advertising and marketing partners, such as Google Analytics.
Marquette University does not require you to directly provide personal information to visit our website; however, you may choose to provide us with personal information through an e-mail message, form, survey, chat or application. This information is used only to fulfill the stated purpose of your communication or participation – we never sell or disclose information you provide to third parties except as required by law. If you are applying to become a student, you can learn more about how and when your personally provided information may be collected and used here.
Marquette University uses a tool called Qualtrics to create forms that collect information you choose to provide. You can find the Qualtrics privacy policy at Qualtrics.com.
