Generation America’s Privacy Practices

Generation USA has a comprehensive privacy policy that outlines how it collects, uses, and manages personal information. Here are the details from different aspects of their privacy practices:

• Aggregate Information:

This refers to information that does not identify a specific individual but is collected based on site visit patterns and interactions on the Generation USA website​​.

How Information Is Collected and Used:

• PII is collected voluntarily when you engage in activities like registering for an account, applying for a course, submitting or posting content, sending feedback, participating in surveys or contests, signing up for special offers, sending email messages, submitting forms, registering for a course, or downloading materials​​.

However, some product and service offerings are provided through contractual arrangements with affiliates, service providers, partners, and other third parties, who may need to use some PII to perform tasks or deliver products or services. 

• Generation encourages these service partners to adopt strong privacy policies, but the use of PII by these service partners is governed by their respective privacy policies​​.

Security of PII:

Measures are taken to protect against unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction of PII. This includes encrypting all PII and ensuring that collected data is reliable, accurate, complete, and current​​.
