Unless you take steps to browse the Internet anonymously, Madonna University, like most institutions and organizations, tracks web browsing patterns to inform us about how our websites are being used. We do this through the use of “cookies”, which are text files placed on your computer. This helps us improve our web content and how we provide access to it. You may refuse the use of cookies by selecting the appropriate settings on your browser, however, doing so may prevent access to the full functionality of some of our websites.
Madonna University uses both Ping and Google Analytics on some section of our websites. Ping is an analytics service that allows us to track remote web access across all Madonna University websites, and correlate that access within our admissions platform. Ping data is aggregated every hour, and web page access is matched to records in our admissions platform every night. This allows us to better understand and meet the needs of prospective students and others who access our website. Google Analytics is a similar, but separate, web analytics service provided by Google, Inc., which also uses cookies, and helps us to analyze how users use our websites. The information in the Google Analytics cookie includes your IP address, and will be transmitted to and stored by Google on its servers. Google uses this information for evaluating your use of the website, compile reports on our website activity, and providing other services related to Internet usage. Please note that Ping or Google may also transfer the information collected to third parties where required to do so by law, or because third parties are processing information on behalf of them. Google will not associate your IP address with any other data they hold. By using our websites, you consent to the processing of data about you by Ping and Google in this manner. Please see Ping's terms of use and privacy policy for more information on Ping, and see Google Analytics terms of use and privacy practices for more information.
