Browsing Data – Google Analytics
Like many other websites, Learn Spanish FAQs website uses a program called ‘Google Analytics’ to gain an understanding of how visitors use and engage with the site. Google Analytics collects information anonymously and identifies trends without identifying individual visitors. You can find more information about the Google Analytics approach to privacy here at this link.
Log Files
In the same way as most other websites, we receive and use the data contained in log files. The information which is contained in log files include your internet protocol (IP) address, your internet service provider (ISP), the type of internet browser you used to visit our site, what times you visited the site and which pages you viewed whilst browsing through our site.
Cookies and Web Beacons
At this site we sometimes use cookies to store basic information, such as your personal preferences when you visit this website. For example this could include only showing you a popup once in your visit, or giving you the ability to login to some of our features, such as forums.
This website may run third party advertisements to help support it. Some of these advertisers may use technology such as cookies and web beacons when they advertise on our site, which will also send these advertisers (such as Google through the Google AdSense program) information including your IP address, your ISP, the browser you used, and in some cases, whether you have Flash installed. This is generally used for geotargeting purposes (showing Los Angeles real estate ads to someone in LA, for example), for showing certain ads based on specific sites visited (such as showing fishing ads to someone who frequents fishing sites) and for keeping track of the effectiveness of the advertisements.
At this website we have no access to or control over cookies that may be used by third-party advertisers, and as such no control over their activities.
Google’s DoubleClick DART Cookie
We also may use DART cookies for ad serving through Google’s DoubleClick, which places a cookie on your computer when you are browsing the web and visit a site using DoubleClick advertising (including some Google AdSense advertisements). This cookie is used to serve ads specific to you and your interests (“interest based targeting”). The ads served will be targeted based on your previous browsing history (For example, if you have been viewing sites about visiting Las Vegas, you may see Las Vegas hotel advertisements when viewing a non-related site, such as on a site about hockey).
DART uses “non personally identifiable information”. It does NOT track personal information about you, such as your name, email address, physical address, telephone number, social security numbers, bank account numbers or credit card numbers. You can opt-out of this ad serving on all sites you visit using this Google advertising by visiting this link here.
Blocking, Deleting and Opting Out of Cookies
You can choose to disable or selectively turn off our cookies or third-party cookies in your browser settings, or by managing preferences in programs such as Norton Internet Security. However, this can affect how you are able to interact with our site as well as other websites. This could include the inability to login to services or programs, such as logging into forums or accounts.
Deleting cookies does not mean you are permanently opted out of any advertising program. Unless you have settings that disallow cookies, the next time you visit a site running the advertisements, a new cookie will be added.
Other Personal Information
This Website may collect your name and email address if you leave a comment, or send a message via our contact form. In providing this information you consent for it to be used for these purposes. We will never share this information with any other party.
If you leave a comment on our site you may opt-in to saving your name, email address and website in cookies. These are for your convenience so that you do not have to fill in your details again when you leave another comment. These cookies will last for one year.
When visitors leave comments on the site we collect the data shown in the comments form, and also the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to help spam detection.
An anonymized string created from your email address (also called a hash) may be provided to the Gravatar service to see if you are using it. The Gravatar service privacy policy is available here: https://automattic.com/privacy/. After approval of your comment, your profile picture is visible to the public in the context of your comment.
Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service.
Third Party Websites – Embedded Content
Articles on this site may include embedded content (e.g. videos, images, articles, etc.). Embedded content from other websites behaves in the exact same way as if the visitor has visited the other website.
These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with that embedded content, including tracking your interaction with the embedded content if you have an account and are logged in to that website.
How Long We Retain Your Data
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.
For users that register on our website (if any), we also store the personal information they provide in their user profile. All users can see, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (except they cannot change their username). Website administrators can also see and edit that information.
What Rights You Have Over Your Data
If you have an account on this site, or have left comments, you can request to receive an exported file of the personal data we hold about you, including any data you have provided to us.
