Privacy Policy
Updated on 7 October 2026
This site is operated by the Business Department of The External Studies Institute. This document explains what information is collected when you use the site, why, who receives it and what your rights are.
What information is collected
- Scoping meeting form: full name, organization and phone. If you choose to fill them in, also email, role, estimated number of participants, a free-text message and the courses you marked on the site.
- Catalog download form: full name, organization and phone.
- Technical information saved with every form submission: the IP address, the browser type and the page the form was sent from.
- Catalog assistant: the questions you type are sent to an external artificial intelligence service in order to produce an answer. The site does not store the conversations. Do not enter personal details in the assistant.
- Usage measurement: the site may run measurement tools by Google and by Meta, to know how many visitors arrived from a campaign and how many of them left their details. These tools use cookies and collect usage data, such as the pages viewed and where the visit came from.
What is kept in your browser
The site keeps in your browser, and not with us, the list of courses you marked, the number of questions you asked the assistant and the accessibility preferences you chose. This information is not used for tracking, and you can delete it at any time in your browser settings.
What the information is used for
- To get back to you about your inquiry and arrange a scoping meeting.
- To send you the catalog you asked for.
- To measure how well campaigns work and to improve the site.
You are under no legal obligation to provide your details, and doing so is up to you. Without contact details we will not be able to get back to you.
Marketing messages are sent only to people who agreed to receive them, and you can ask to be removed from the mailing list at any time.
Who receives the information
Your details reach the Business Department team. We do not sell them and do not pass them to anyone else for their own marketing. To run the site we rely on service providers, some of which operate outside Israel:
- Netlify hosts the site and receives the forms.
- Claude, the artificial intelligence service by Anthropic, through Netlify, processes the questions typed into the catalog assistant.
- Google provides the site fonts, and the measurement tool when it is switched on.
- Meta provides the campaign measurement tool when it is switched on.
- Vimeo shows the campus video, and only after you press play.
- WhatsApp: pressing the WhatsApp button takes you to the WhatsApp service, which has its own terms.
How long the information is kept
Your details are kept for as long as they are needed to handle your inquiry and the business relationship that follows from it.
Information security
Traffic to the site is encrypted (HTTPS), and access to the inquiries received is limited to the department team.
Your rights
You may ask to see the information kept about you, to correct it or to delete it. For any privacy request or question:
- Email: [email protected]
- Phone: 054-3982726
- Call center: *3068
Updates
If we change how the information is used, we will update this document and the date at its top.
