RichmondCC takes precautions to protect your information. When you submit sensitive information via the website, your information is protected both online and offline.

Wherever RichmondCC collects sensitive information (such as credit card data), that information is encrypted and transmitted to the college in a secure way. You can verify this by looking for a lock icon in the address bar and looking for “https” at the beginning of the address of the Web page. All transactions are secured and managed by Authorize.net

While the college uses encryption to protect sensitive information transmitted online, the college also protects your information offline. Only employees who need the information to perform a specific job (for example, billing or customer service) are granted access to personally identifiable information. The computers/servers in which we store personally identifiable information are kept in a secure environment.

Surveys and Promotions

If you participate in a Promotion the college will request certain Personal Information from you. RichmondCC use the Personal Information you provide to the college in these instances to administer your participation in the Promotion. Participation in a Promotion is completely voluntary, and you therefore have a choice whether or not to disclose this information.
