What Personal Data We Collect and Why
Comments
When visitors leave comments on our site, we collect the data shown in the comments form, along with the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string. This helps us detect and prevent spam.
An anonymized string created from your email address (a hash) may be sent to the Gravatar service to check if you are using it. You can view the Gravatar service privacy policy. Once your comment is approved, your profile picture will be visible publicly in the context of your comment.
Media
If you upload images to our website, please avoid including any embedded location data (EXIF GPS). Visitors to our site can download and extract location data from images.
Contact Forms
When you fill out a contact form on our website, we collect the information you provide to respond to your inquiries.
Cookies
When you leave a comment, you may choose to save your name, email address, and website in cookies for your convenience, so you don’t have to re-enter these details on subsequent comments. These cookies will last for one year.
If you log in to our site, we will set a temporary cookie to check if your browser accepts cookies. This cookie contains no personal data and is deleted when you close your browser.
When you log in, we will also set up several cookies to save your login information and screen display choices. Login cookies last for two days, while screen options cookies last for one year. If you select “Remember Me,” your login will persist for two weeks. If you log out of your account, the login cookies will be removed.
If you edit or publish an article, an additional cookie will be saved in your browser. This cookie only contains the post ID of the article you just edited and expires after one day.
Embedded Content from Other Websites
Articles on our site may include embedded content (such as videos, images, or articles). Embedded content from other websites behaves as if you visited those sites directly.
These external sites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with that content, especially if you have an account and are logged in to that site.
How Long We Retain Your Data
Comments and their metadata are retained indefinitely to automatically recognize and approve follow-up comments instead of holding them in a moderation queue.
For users who register on our website, we store the personal information they provide in their user profile. Users can view, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (except for changing their username). Website administrators can also view and edit this information.
Your Data Rights
If you have an account on our 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. You can also request that we delete any personal data we hold about you, though this does not include data we are required to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.
Where We Send Your Data
Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service.
Cookies and Web Beacons
Like most websites, PrepIntro uses cookies to store information such as visitor preferences and the pages visited. This information helps us optimize user experience and customize our content based on visitor behavior.
Advertisements
Ads on our website may be served by advertising partners who may set cookies. These cookies enable the ad server to recognize your computer each time they send you an advertisement and to gather information about you or others using your computer. This data is used to deliver targeted ads that may be of interest to you.
Third-Party Privacy Policies
Our Privacy Policy does not apply to other advertisers or websites. We encourage you to review the Privacy Policies of any third-party ad servers for more detailed information. You can find a list of these Privacy Policies and links to them here.

We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under the age of 13. If you believe your child has provided us with such information, please contact us immediately so we can delete it from our records.
Online Privacy Policy Only
This Privacy Policy applies only to our online activities and is valid for visitors to our website concerning the information they share or collect on PrepIntro.com. It does not apply to information collected offline or through other channels.
