E-mail Terms of Use

LECOM provides E-mail contact information for sole the purpose of facilitating private, individual communications between web site visitors and college personnel.

LECOM specifically prohibits the automated harvesting of email addresses from its site. The college will not distribute, sell, or otherwise transfer addresses on its website or online services to any outside party whose intention is to initiate mass electronic mail messages.

LECOM reserves the right to use internal search functions and filtering systems to identify unacceptable* use of the Internet and electronic communications; and to obtain specific email addresses for maintaining the integrity of our college communications.

LECOM will make reasonable efforts to maintain the integrity and effective operation of its electronic mail systems, but users are advised that those systems should in no way be regarded as a secure medium for the communication of sensitive or confidential information.


*Unacceptable Uses of the Internet:
  • Using an E-Mail account owned by someone else.
  • Sending harassing, obscene and/or other threatening messages to another user.
  • Sending unsolicited junk mail.
  • Sending material that infringes upon the copyright of another person.
  • Sending chain letters.
  • Sending commercial or advertising material to users or other organizations.
  • Distributing E-Mail to everyone in the college without the proper authorization.
  • Distributing hate mail, discriminatory remarks and pornographic material.
  • Using E-Mail to share confidential information about students or employees.

Privacy on the LECOM Web Site

Visitors can access the LECOM website home page and browse our site without disclosing your personal data unless you voluntarily submit that information as part of correspondence with LECOM or its employees.

The College does not collect or use personal data for any purpose other than that indicated on the Web pages where the information is requested or collected. Except as requested by individuals or indicated on the Web page where information is requested, LECOM does not disclose this personal information to other organizations.

Protecting the privacy of children is of utmost concern. The LECOM website is not intended or designed to attract children under the age of 13. We do not collect personally identifiable information from any person we actually know is a child under the age of 13.

LECOM is committed to complying with all federal, state, and local laws, as well as applicable regulations, standards, and guidelines established by government agencies and accepted accrediting organizations.

The College will provide a secure transmission method for individuals to send us personal information, including:

  • Primary personal information (such as name and contact details)
  • Identifiers (such as social security numbers, credit card details, website password)
  • Specific personal information (such as survey information, racial or ethnic origin, religious beliefs, medical information)
While such secure transmission methods provide reasonable protections against unauthorized access, if you have concerns regarding the transmission of sensitive information, you should consider using non-electronic communication methods.

We have implemented security policies, rules, and technical measures to protect the personal data that we have under our control from:
  • Unauthorized access
  • Improper use or disclosure
  • Unauthorized modification
  • Unlawful destruction or accidental loss
  • All our employees and data processors who have access to, and are associated with, the processing of personal information are obliged to respect the confidentiality of our visitors' personal information.

Questions about privacy and security should be directed to the LECOM Communications & Marketing Department.
