4. Cookies and Tracking Technologies

Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit our website. We use cookies for the following purposes:

4.1 Essential Cookies (Always Active)

These cookies are required for our website to function properly and cannot be disabled.

4.2 Analytics Cookies (Requires Your Consent)

We use Google Analytics to understand how visitors use our website. These cookies collect anonymised information about page views, session duration, and user behaviour. These cookies are only set if you click Accept All on our cookie banner.

4.3 Advertising Cookies (Requires Your Consent)

We use Google AdSense and Google Ads to display advertisements on our website. These cookies allow Google to serve ads relevant to your interests based on your browsing history. These cookies are only set if you click Accept All. If you click Reject Non-Essential, Google will serve non-personalised advertisements only and none of the cookies below will be stored.

Google’s privacy policy is available at: https://policies.google.com/privacy

6. Comments

When visitors leave comments on our site, we collect the data shown in the comment form — your name, email address, optional website URL, and comment content — along with your IP address and browser user agent string to help with spam detection.

An anonymised string (hash) created from your email address may be shared with the Gravatar service to check if you use it. The Gravatar privacy policy is available at: https://automattic.com/privacy/. Your profile picture becomes publicly visible alongside your approved comment.

If you opt to save your name, email, and website in cookies when commenting, these cookies will last for one year for your convenience, so you do not need to refill the form on future visits.

7. Media Uploads

If you upload images to our website (for example, as a registered user), please avoid uploading images with embedded location data (EXIF GPS) included. Visitors to the website can download and extract any location data from images published on the site.

8. Embedded Content from Other Websites

Pages on our site may include embedded content such as videos, images, or articles from third-party platforms (for example, YouTube). Embedded content from other websites behaves in the same way as if you had visited those sites directly. Those websites may collect data about you, use their own cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with the embedded content — including if you have an account and are logged in to that website.

9. Third-Party Services and Data Sharing

We do not sell your personal data. We may share data with the following trusted third-party services to operate our website:

We may also disclose data where required by law or to protect the rights, property, or safety of eStudy247, our users, or the public.

10. How Long We Retain Your Data

• Comments and metadata: Retained indefinitely so that we can recognise and approve follow-up comments automatically rather than holding them in a moderation queue.
• Registered user data: Stored for as long as you have an active account, or until you request deletion.
• Analytics data (Google Analytics): Retained for up to 26 months per Google’s default settings.
• Server log data: IP addresses and page requests are typically retained for 30–90 days for security purposes.

11. Your Rights Over Your Data

If you have an account on this site or have left comments, you can request to:

• Receive an exported file of all personal data we hold about you
• Request correction of any inaccurate data we hold
• Request erasure of your personal data (subject to legal retention requirements)

Please note that this does not include data we are required to retain for administrative, legal, or security reasons. To exercise any of these rights, please contact us via our Contact page.

12. Where Your Data Is Sent

Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service (Akismet). Data is processed on servers operated by Google (for analytics and advertising) and Automattic (for Gravatar and spam detection). Your data may be transferred to and processed in countries outside your own. We ensure such transfers comply with applicable privacy laws.

13. Children’s Privacy

Our website is intended for general audiences and is not directed at children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal data from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us and we will delete it promptly.

14. Security

We take reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect your personal data against unauthorised access, loss, or disclosure. However, no internet transmission is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

15. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices or legal requirements. The “Last Updated” date at the top of this page will reflect any revisions. Continued use of our website after changes are published constitutes your acceptance of the updated policy.
