Information We Collect
Information you give us. The Site does not require you to create an account or submit any personal information. If you contact us by email, we receive your email address and the contents of your message.
Usage data. Like most websites, our servers and third-party analytics services automatically collect standard log data when you visit, including your IP address, browser type, operating system, referring URL, pages viewed, and the date and time of your visit. This data is used in aggregate to understand how visitors use the Site and to improve it.
Cookies and similar technologies. The Site uses cookies — small text files stored on your device — to enable advertising and analytics features described below. You can control cookies through your browser settings, but disabling them may affect Site functionality.
Google AdSense and Advertising
The Site uses Google AdSense to display advertisements. Google AdSense uses cookies, including the DoubleClick cookie, to serve ads based on your prior visits to this Site and other sites on the internet. These cookies allow Google and its partners to serve ads to you based on your visit to this Site and/or other sites on the Internet.
You may opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings or aboutads.info. You can also opt out of a third-party vendor's use of cookies for personalized advertising by visiting networkadvertising.org.
Google's use of advertising cookies is governed by Google's own Privacy Policy, which you can review at policies.google.com/privacy.
Google Analytics
We use Google Analytics to understand how visitors interact with the Site. Google Analytics collects data such as pages visited, time on site, and general geographic location (country/region level). This data is processed by Google and is subject to Google's Privacy Policy. IP addresses are anonymized before storage. We do not combine analytics data with personally identifiable information.
You can opt out of Google Analytics tracking by installing the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.
How We Use Information
We use collected information to operate and improve the Site, to understand aggregate traffic patterns, to serve relevant advertising through Google AdSense, to respond to emails you send us, and to comply with legal obligations. We do not sell personal information to third parties.
Third-Party Links
Every program listing on the Site links to an official university or program admissions page. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of those external sites. We encourage you to review the privacy policy of any site you visit.

The Site is operated in the United States. If you are located in the European Economic Area (EEA) or elsewhere outside the US, your information may be transferred to and processed in the US.
