Cookies

A “cookie” is a small data file that is written to your hard drive that contains information about your visit to a web page. University websites may use cookies to store information about your actions or choices on pages associated with those websites, in order to customize the information and services that the sites offer you.

Technical Information

When you access any website from the Internet, your computer automatically provides its Internet Protocol ( “IP”) address to the computer hosting that website, as is the case when you attach to any Internet-connected computer. This is so that the computer knows where to send the requested information. Information about browser types is also provided automatically.

We use this information in aggregate form in order to help diagnose problems with our computer systems, to help us understand our visitors' needs related to our website design, plan the use of system capacity and improve the quality of the information and services available to you on our websites. We do not access this information in a way that identifies any individual person.

Affinity Partners

You may also receive offers from our “affinity partners.” An affinity program is an agreement between the University and a business partner to offer discounted services to our alumni in areas such as travel, investment, insurance or credit cards. In addition to discounts for alumni, these affinity partners give a portion of their business back to Cal State Fullerton. This in turn supports numerous areas of the university such as student scholarships, academic programs, facilities, athletics and alumni programs. These types of partnerships also provide sponsorship opportunities for other university events and programs.

In order to provide you with access to and information about the benefits and discounts of the various affinity opportunities, your information is shared with only the selected partners of the utmost quality and integrity. A privacy contract is signed and they are not allowed to share your data with any other entity. In many cases, a third-party mail house is used and the affinity partner only has your information if you respond to them.

You have the right to restrict the sharing of your name, address and electronic mail address with our affinity partners. If you wish to opt out of the affinity partner program, you may do so by clicking here for our online form , by sending an email to alumniengagement@fullerton.edu , or by calling (866-414-8136).
