Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy (“Privacy Policy”) explains how PaRama Campus (“we” or “us”) collect, use and share personally identifiable information of visitors of our web site (the “Site”) and users of our products and services (the “Services”). Please note that the primary purpose of our Site and the Services is to allow you to enroll in and take online courses on a variety of topics (“Courses”). For the purpose of this Privacy Policy, information that you provide through the Site can be in one of two categories: information relating to your use of the Site or the Services, including, without limitation, enrollment information for Courses, is referred to as “Site Information,” while information relating to taking the Courses, including, without limitation, interchanges with the Course instructors (“Instructors”), other students (“Users”), answers, essays and other items submitted to satisfy Course requirements, is referred to as “Course Information.” When this Privacy Policy uses the generic term “information” it is intended to address the general use of information, and not your specific Site Information or Course Information. By using the Site, Services, or Courses you consent to the collection, use and disclosure of your personally identifiable Site Information and Course Information, as applicable, in accordance with this Privacy Policy.

Personally Identifiable Information We Collect and How We Use It.

You can generally visit the Site without revealing any personally identifiable information about yourself. However, when visiting our Sites, some information is collected electronically or by tchnology. We collect information regarding which pages you visit on our site, from which page you came to our Site, and the software you use to visit our site and its configuration. When you use any shopping cart functions that may be included on our Sites, your IP address is used to help identify you and your shopping cart. Our Sites alos use cookies.

If you request to receive company or product information, or request information about specific Services, or provide comments about Services, you will be asked to provide contact information so that we can complete your request. We use this Site Information to fulfill your request. We may also use this Site Information to send you additional information about our Services or Courses on the Site that you may be interested in.

Many of the Services require that you become a registered user and create a user account. This will require that you provide certain personally identifiable information, that may include (but not be limited to) your e-mail address, as well as telephone and address information.

You allow us to use this personally identifiable Site Information to register you to use the Services, enroll in Courses, and otherwise provide you with the Services; verify your authority to enter the Site and access the Courses and Services; notify you of updates; improve the content and general administration of the Site and the Services; provide you with notices regarding the Services and other services that you have purchased or may wish to purchase in the future.

You also consent to our providing this personally identifiable information to Instructors as part of the Course Information when you enroll in a Course. Instructors will use this Course Information to provide the Course to you. Instructors may have other users for Course Information. It is your responsibility when you enroll in a Course to confirm what uses the Instructor will make of your personally identifiable Course Information. PaRama Campus does not control these uses by Instructors.

Other Information We Collect and How We Use It.

PaRama Campus may also automatically collect and analyze Site Information about your general usage of the Site, Services and Courses. We might track your usage patterns to see what features of the Site, Services and Courses you commonly use, Site traffic volume, frequency of visits, type and time of transactions, type of browser, browser language, IP address and operating system, and statistical information about how you use the Services and Courses. We only collect, track and analyze such Site Information in an aggregate manner that does not personally identify you. This aggregate data may be used to assist us in operating the Site and the Services and provided to other third parties to enable them to better understand the operation of the Services, and improve their Course offerings, but such information will be in aggregate form only and it will not contain personally identifiable data.

Instructors may collect non-personally identifiable Course Information in connection with your participation in Courses. This Course Information may include, but not be limited to, your interaction with the Instructor and other Users, comments you leave on Course forums, answers or essays you submit to satisfy Course requirements, and so forth. As noted above, it is your responsibility to review the Instructor’s policy in connection with all Course Information and decide whether or not you want to provide such Course Information.

We recognize the privacy interests of children and we encourage parents and guardians to take an active role in their children’s online activities and interests. This Site is not intended for children under the age of 18 and we endeavor not to collect any personally identifiable information from children under the age of 18. PaRama Campus targets its Services and this Site to adults and not to children under 18.

Disclosure of Information.

We will share your personally identifiable Site Information with third parties only in the ways that are described in this Privacy Policy. These include, but are not limited to, sharing Site Information with service providers to allow them to fulfill your requests, and to Instructors (in which case this will become Course Information). We do not sell your personal information to third parties. Please refer to the sections above on personally identifiable and other Course Information for how Course Information may be used.

We may also disclose your personally identifiable information: (a) if we are required to do so by law, regulation or other government authority or otherwise in cooperation with an investigation of a governmental authority, (b) to enforce these Terms of Use, or (c) to protect the safety of Users of our Site and our Services and Courses. In addition, we may transfer your personally identifiable information to a successor entity upon a merger, consolidation or other corporate reorganization.

We retain Site Information and the personal data we process on behalf of Users for as long as needed to provide the Services. We will retain and use this personal Site Information as necessary to comply with our legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce our agreements with Users, and/or the period required by laws in applicable jurisdictions. Please see the sections above for how Course Information may be used.

We may use software, secure socket layer technology (SSL) encryption, password protection, firewalls, internal restrictions and other security measures to help prevent unauthorized access to your personally identifiable information. However, PaRama Campus cannot guarantee that unauthorized third parties will never be able to defeat these measures or use your personally identifiable information for improper purposes.

The Site, Services and in particular the Courses, may provide links to third party web sites or resources not associated with us and over which we do not have control (“External Web Sites”).

PaRama Campus reserves the right to change this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will post the revised Privacy Policy on this Site and will either send a notice to the e-mail address that you specified in your registration and/or post notice of the change so it is visible when users log-on for the first time prior to said changes taking effect so that you are always aware of what personal information we may collect and how we may use this information.

Terms of Use

The Fine Print.
Here at PaRama Campus, we are devoted to delivering the best content possible and creating amazing learning experiences for every one of our students. We’re all pretty laid back here and are committed to creating a dharmic relationship within our community. (Translation: Yes, you can run down the online hallways of the campus, but if you fall and damage some stuff, let us know…)

The Specs.
Please make sure you have your technology sorted before enrolling in one of our courses. All you require is a computer/tablet, speakers, an internet connection, and an updated web browser.

Your courses will be most enjoyable if you have a steady internet connection. The faster your connection, the faster our courses will load to provide you a much more enjoyable learning experience.

Our technical team is amazing and even a little magical, but even they can’t help you without these basic requirements. Please know that most courses come with the ability to download the content, so if your connection is slow, there is always this option for you.

Our Refund Policy.
At PaRama Campus, you have 24 hours to explore your course, check out the materials, and make sure it’s what you’re wanting. If you decide within that time period that it is not what you’re looking for, all you need to do is contact us and we will issue a full refund. No questions asked. Simply contact our support team and request your refund.

We charge and refund in US dollars. Unfortunately, we cannot control the fluctuations of the international currency exchange, and the reality is that these rates change daily. Sometimes that can work in your favor and sometimes not.

Please note, if we believe you are taking advantage of our refund policy, we will freeze your student account. We really don’t want to have to do that, but we will if, at our sole discretion, we determine it is necessary, so please play fair.

R-E-S-P-E-C-T.
Studying at PaRama Campus presents many opportunities for interacting with all the members of the Campus community - Staff, Faculty, and fellow students.

We recognize the importance of sharing ideas and the pursuit of open inquiry. This is part of the fabric that built PaRama Campus. We encourage you to participate openly in the community forums associated with your courses. However, please be respectful and maintain a cooperative and collaborative approach to inter-personal relationships throughout the Campus. We promise to do the same.

If you’re found to be in breach of these terms, we will have to take the only practical action left to us and show you the online door.

Know Your Limits.
We love information. We love to share it with you. What you do with this information is up to you. Please administer any of the course material within your scope of practice, respect the code of ethics of your licensing or certifying body (if you have one) and, most importantly, respect the local laws around administering techniques within your local area. We assume no responsibility for any consequences resulting from the use of the material shared in our courses.

Stealing is Not Cool.
The course content for PaRama Campus was developed by some of the most dynamic, wise, and intelligent people we know. That’s why they teach for us. Please do not steal, reproduce, or plagiarize any of the ideas or content presented in PaRama Campus. It’s just not cool. For more information, please see our Intelletual Property Notice.
