Day of Climate respects your privacy. We do not collect personally identifiable information about you unless you voluntarily provide it, such as when you provide email contact information to subscribe to our mailing list, send us feedback, or respond to a survey. If you voluntarily provide your email address and/or other contact information, we might also use it to inform you of events and changes to Day of Climate content, to survey you about your use or opinion of Day of Climate, or to ask for your support. At your request, we will remove your contact information from our files.

We do not make your contact information or any other personally identifiable information available to anyone outside Day of Climate or its service providers (who use the information only for authorized Day of Climate purposes) unless we are legally required to do so.

In addition to the above, we collect certain anonymous (non-personally identifiable) information to help us improve the Day of Climate web site and materials and to evaluate the access and use of our materials and the impact of Day of Climate on the worldwide educational community:

• We collect information you provide about your use of and satisfaction with Day of Climate through email you send us, through the Day of Climate feedback forms, and through Day of Climate surveys, whether or not you voluntarily include your contact information.
• We use the Google Analytics web analytics service, which collects certain data about this website’s traffic via the standard Google Analytics implementation. The specific Google Analytics feature we use is Google Analytics Demographics and Interest Reporting. Google Analytics Demographics and Interest Reporting enables Day of Climate to use information such as user age, gender and interests from Google’s Interest-based advertising or 3rd-party audience data to improve services on the Day of Climate website and to help us understand the aggregate demographics of our users. We cannot and do not obtain personally-identifiable information from Google Analytics. Day of Climate does not and will not merge any personally-identifiable information with non-personally identifiable information unless you have been given notice of and have given prior affirmative (i.e. opt-in) consent to that merger. Google’s ability to use and share information collected by Google Analytics about your visits to Day of Climate is restricted by the Google Privacy Policy. You can prevent Google Analytics from recognizing you on return visits to this website by disabling (opting out) the Google Analytics cookie. You can also view and change the currently available settings for Google Ads.
• We may use other web analysis tools that are built into the Day of Climate web site to measure and collect anonymous session information.
• We may also use “cookies” to improve your Day of Climate web experience and to collect anonymous information about how you use Day of Climate. However, cookies are not required for Day of Climate use. If your browser is configured not to accept cookies, you will still be able to access Day of Climate and its content.

When we report information about Day of Climate access, use, and impact, we report aggregate, non-personally identifiable data. Occasionally, we report quoted feedback from users. We do not attribute feedback to specific individuals unless we obtain permission to use that person’s name along with the feedback.

MIT Interpretation of “Non-commercial”

Non-commercial use means that users may not sell, profit from, or commercialize Day of Climate materials or works derived from them. The guidelines below are intended to help users determine whether or not their use of Day of Climate materials would be permitted by MIT under the “non-commercial” restriction. Note that there are additional requirements (attribution and share alike) spelled out in our license.

1. Commercialization is prohibited. Users may not directly sell or profit from Day of Climate materials or from works derived from Day of Climate materials.

Example: A commercial education or training business may not offer courses based on Day of Climate materials if students pay a fee for those courses and the business intends to profit as a result.

2. Determination of commercial vs. non-commercial purpose is based on the use, not the user. Materials may be used by individuals, institutions, governments, corporations, or other business whether for-profit or non-profit so long as the use itself is not a commercialization of the materials or a use that is directly intended to generate sales or profit.

Example: A corporation may use Day of Climate materials for internal professional development and training purposes.

If you have questions about acceptable use of Day of Climate materials, please contact us at dayofclimate@mit.edu.
