Privacy Policy
Public Partnerships LLC (“PPL”) respects the privacy of your personal information. This Privacy Policy outlines the types of information that PPL may collect from each visitor to its website, what we do with that information, and with whom we may share the information.
User Agreement
Each visitor to the PPL website (“the User”) is encouraged to review this Privacy Policy. By using this website, the User is accepting the Privacy Policy. The Privacy Policy cannot be changed by the User.
Scope
The Privacy Policy applies to this PPL website. The Privacy Policy does not apply to password-protected websites created by PPL for specific PPL clients, which by their nature require different uses of personal information. The policy also does not apply to the websites to which this website may link. If you choose to follow a link to another website, please consult the privacy policy for that website.
Amendments
We may modify this Policy from time to time based on changes to our data practices, business activities, or applicable laws. If we make a material change to this Policy, we will provide you with notice by posting a conspicuous notice on our website. Unless otherwise noted, updates to this Policy are effective immediately upon posting. Your continued use of the website after the changes have been posted or otherwise made available to you shall constitute your acceptance of the updated terms.
This Privacy Policy was last updated on 10/30/2026.
Collection and Use of User Information
PPL collects and processes two types of User information: computer information that is collected automatically, and information that you enter voluntarily. All personal information is collected directly from Users, not from third parties.
We do not knowingly collect personal information from minors under 13 years of age.
Automatic Collection of Computer Information
When you visit the PPL website, PPL does not automatically collect personal information from you or about you (such as your name or mailing address). However, the website does place small files called “cookies” on your computer to automatically collect and store certain types of data from the computer that you use to access the PPL website. PPL uses this computer information to assess interest in the website and its pages, and for other internal business purposes. For details about the cookies we use and how to manage them, please see our Cookie Policy.
Collection of Voluntarily Provided Personal Information
PPL also may request and collect certain personal information from Users who wish to be contacted by PPL or to receive PPL publications such as white papers and newsletters. This personal information may include the User’s name, email address, telephone number, and mailing address. PPL does not request or collect other personal information such as social security numbers, driver’s license numbers, or financial account numbers. You are under no obligation to provide any information about yourself, though certain information may be needed in order to respond to a request for information or publications. We will not attempt to match this personal information with IP addresses and other automatically collected information, except as may be necessary to police misuse of the PPL website.
User information posted by the User on a PPL blog may be accessible to anyone visiting the blog.
PPL does not sell, rent, or trade personal information for commercial purposes.
PPL does not transfer personal data outside of the United States.
You may opt out of receiving communications from PPL by contacting the Privacy Officer as described below.
