Privacy Policy

SIL International does not send unsolicited or "spam" e-mail and does not sell, rent, or trade its e-mail lists to third parties.

We use Google Analytics, a web analysis service provided by Google Inc. (“Google”). Google uses the data collected to track and examine the use of www.sil.org, to prepare reports on its activities and share them with other Google services. Google may use the data collected to contextualize and personalize the ads of its own advertising network. We have also chosen to enable Google's Display Advertising features, which allow us to collect and access certain demographic and interest data about visitors to www.sil.org through Google's first-party and other third-party cookies. We use this Google Analytics data to improve our online web properties, products, and services. We do not share, sell, rent, or lease this information to anyone outside of SIL. We will not facilitate the merging of personally-identifiable information with non-personally identifiable information previously collected from Display Advertising features that is based on the DoubleClick cookie unless we have robust notice of, and your prior affirmative (i.e., opt-in) consent to, that merger. You may opt-out of Google Analytics for Display Advertising and customize Google Display Network ads using Google's Ads Settings or install the Google Analytics opt-out browser add-on. 

If you supply us with your postal or email address, you will receive the information for which you provided us your address. If you have any questions or concerns regarding our privacy policy, please e-mail   or mail your question to us at 7500 W. Camp Wisdom Rd., Dallas, TX 75236.
