WHAT DATA WE COLLECT AND WHY

 

Personal Information

When users access the collegestudyhacks.com website, they may voluntarily provide certain personally identifiable information including, but not limited to name and email address.  This information is collected when you subscribe to a newsletter, contact us, provide comments or fill out a form to receive free resource materials.

This personal information is used to personalize your experience, enhance the website to better serve you, provide customer service support, process your requests and follow up with you through email correspondence.

Comments

When users leave comments on the website, we collect the data displayed in the comments form, the user’s IP address and browser information for help in SPAM detection.  If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This is so we can recognize and approve any follow-up comments automatically instead of holding them in a moderation queue.

Email

We use SendinBlue to manage our email marketing subscriber list and to send emails to our subscribers.  Sendinblue is a third-party provider, which may process your data using industry standard technologies to help us evaluate and enhance our newsletter.  Information regarding Sendinblue’s data privacy and protection policy can be found here.  You can unsubscribe from emails at any time by clicking on the unsubscribe link found at the bottom of each email. We do not share, sell or trade your email information with third parties except as otherwise stated in this privacy policy.

 

Log Files

Like many other websites, this website collects certain information about you through Log Data. Log Data contains information about your computer’s internet protocol (IP) address, browser type, Internet Service Provider’s (ISP) information and your operating system.

Analytics

We use Google analytics to record information about the pages a user has seen, for example the URL of the page, time of day, device used, etc. The information that we collect is anonymized and sent to Google Analytics for analysis.

We use this information to analyze website statistics related to traffic and user behavior to improve the overall website user experience and to enhance the resources and services offered on the website.

Google Analytics mainly uses first-party cookies to report on visitor interactions on this website. Users may disable cookies or delete any individual cookie. Learn more

In addition, Google Analytics supports an optional browser add-on that – once installed and enabled – disables measurement by Google Analytics for any site a user visits. Note that this add-on only disables Google Analytics measurement.

Google Analytics also collects Internet Protocol (IP) addresses to provide and protect the security of the service, and to give website owners a sense of which country, state, or city in the world their users come from (also known as “IP geolocation”).

See this page for Google Analytics security and usage of data.
