The Ivy League Roadmap (“we,” “us,” or “our”) operates ivyroadmap.org (the “Site”) and provides college admissions advising services. This policy explains what we collect, how we use it, who we share it with, and the choices you have.
Information we collect
Almost everything we collect, you give us directly in the application on our Apply page. Depending on your answers, that includes:
- Contact information: the student’s and parent or guardian’s names, email addresses, phone numbers, and mailing address.
- Biographical details: the student’s date of birth, biological sex, citizenship status, armed forces status, and residence history. Race and disability information are optional questions; share them only if you choose to.
- Academic information: current school, GPA, class rank, coursework, test scores, target schools, and any academic discipline history.
- Activities and essays: extracurriculars, honors, work experience, recommenders, and short written answers about the student’s experiences and goals.
- Financial information: whether you plan to apply for financial aid, approximate household income range, expected cost of attendance, budget for admissions preparation, and parent or guardian professions.
Answers to an application you have not yet submitted are saved only in your own browser and do not reach us until you submit.
We do not run advertising trackers or third-party analytics on the Site, and we do not collect browsing profiles about you.
How we use your information
We use the information you submit to:
- Review and evaluate your application to work with us;
- Contact you about your application and, if we work together, provide our advising services;
- Manage our capacity and waitlist;
- Comply with legal obligations, if any apply.
We do not sell your personal information, rent it, or share it with third parties for their own marketing. Ever.
Service providers and security
We rely on a small number of service providers to run the Site and to store and deliver this information. Each processes it only on our behalf and only to provide their service to us, and we do not give them permission to use it for any other purpose.
We protect submitted information with reasonable safeguards, and only authorized members of our team can access it.
Cookies
We do not set tracking or advertising cookies, and you can browse the Site and apply without receiving a cookie from us. Videos on the Site are embedded from YouTube; when you play one, YouTube’s own privacy policy applies.
Students and minors
Our services concern students who are often under 18. The application is meant to be completed by, or together with, a parent or legal guardian. By submitting an application, the parent or guardian consents to our collection and use of the student’s information as described in this policy. The Site is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect information from a child under 13 without a parent or guardian’s involvement. If you believe a child has submitted information to us without consent, contact us and we will delete it.
Retention and your choices
We keep application information while we are evaluating it and, if we work together, for the duration of our engagement and as long as reasonably needed afterward. At any time, you can email us to:
- Ask what information we hold about you or your student;
- Correct information that is wrong or out of date;
- Ask us to delete your application and associated information, which we will honor unless we are required to keep it.
Third-party links
The Site links to third-party sites, such as the store that sells our book and our social media profiles. Those sites operate under their own privacy policies, which we do not control.
Changes to this policy
If we change this policy, we will post the updated version here with a new “last updated” date. Material changes that affect how we handle information you already gave us will be communicated to the email address on your application.
