Website activity
The site records aggregate quiz starts, quiz completions, and educational-file downloads. Each record contains the event type, a timestamp, and a one-way daily deduplication value. It does not contain a name, email address, account identifier, raw IP address, or advertising identifier.
A first-party session cookie is used only to avoid counting the same browser repeatedly for the same event during one day. It expires after 24 hours, is not used across websites, and is not used for advertising or profiling.
Learning survey
The one-question survey records whether a respondent learned a lot, learned a little, or did not learn something new this time, along with the material source when supplied in the survey link. It does not collect a name, email address, account, or raw IP address.
A first-party cookie lasting up to 180 days prevents the same browser from creating repeated survey entries and allows an answer to be revised. The database stores a one-way value derived from that cookie rather than the cookie itself. Survey responses may be retained as anonymous campaign-learning records.
Quiz percentile
When a quiz is completed, the site records the browser's first score and a timestamp. It does not collect a player name, email address, account, raw IP address, or public profile.
A first-party cookie lasting up to one year prevents retakes from adding extra scores to the comparison group. The database stores a one-way value derived from that cookie rather than the cookie itself. The results page compares the current score with the group's recorded first attempts.
Material requests
The organization request form collects an organization name and type, website when provided, authorized contact details, organization shipping address, quantity, audience, placement, and optional notes. The information is used only to review, fulfill, document, and follow up on the request.
Personal contact and shipping details are automatically purged 90 days after confirmed delivery, within 30 days after a request is declined or canceled, or after 180 days without resolution. Nonpersonal fulfillment information may remain so that aggregate campaign reporting can be audited.
Email contact
The website provides a direct email link instead of a contact form. If you choose to email the campaign, your email address and message are handled through Gmail and used only to reply and manage the inquiry. The site itself does not create a contact-form record.
Sharing and sale
Submitted information is not sold and is not used for behavioral advertising. Information may be handled by the hosting and database services required to operate the website. It may also be disclosed when legally required or when necessary to protect the site and its users from abuse.
