Email Lists

We maintain multiple "opt-in" email lists which generally start with the purchase of lists of students, from ACT, who expressed interests that align with BI program and whose test scores and other academic background make them a reasonable match to the program. The ACT lists explicitly allow for contacting students about scholarship and program information but NOT for general survey purposes. We cannot provide these lists to others, not even other campuses of the University of Colorado. Only Name, field of interest, year of graduation, email, and paper mail address are maintained. No Social Security Numbers, date of birth of other sensitive personal information is retained on our servers. If a list member unsubscribes they are marked permanently unsubscribed and cannot be reinstalled in the list even if they reappear on a subsequent ACT list. If you have unsubscribed and want to be re-added you must contact Dr. Boult directly.

We maintain general log files on our web server which describe how users navigate our site and their origin and to validate AdWord charges. These log files do not provide personally identifiable information. The log files reveal the IP Address from which the connection was completed, the time of the event, the page requested, whether that request was successful or not, and certain system attributes including browser type, browser version, and operating system. These are used mostly to determine if The BI Program web servers are being subject to attacks and summary statistics are used understand our visitor traffic.
