- Log data: IP address, referrer, and request timestamps, collected automatically by our hosting provider.
- Cookies: small files stored in your browser to remember preferences and to serve advertising (see below).
How We Use Information
- To deliver study content, quizzes, and practice tests.
- To measure traffic, diagnose issues, and improve the Service.
- To display relevant advertisements through Google AdSense.
- To comply with legal obligations when required.
