Log Files
ScholarshipDen follows a standard procedure of using log files. When visitors come to our website, we collect certain information automatically and store it in log files. This information may include Internet Protocol (IP) addresses, browser type, Internet Service Provider (ISP), date and time stamp, referring/exit pages, and possibly the number of clicks. We use this information to analyze trends, administer the site, track users’ movement around the site, and gather demographic information. Importantly, none of this information is linked to anything that is personally identifiable. It helps us understand our audience and improve our service.
Analytics
We may use third-party service providers such as Google Analytics to collect and analyze information about the use of our website. These analytics services collect information about how often users visit the site, what pages they visit, and what other sites they used prior to coming to our site. The data collected is used strictly for analyzing and improving our website’s functionality and content. We have enabled IP anonymization in Google Analytics, so your full IP address is not stored – this means the information collected cannot be used to identify you personally. Analytics data is retained only for as long as necessary for these purposes.

Advertising & Third-Party Cookies
ScholarshipDen is supported by advertising, which means we partner with third-party vendors (such as Google AdSense) to display ads on our site. These third-party ad networks may use technologies like cookies, JavaScript, or web beacons in the advertisements that appear on ScholarshipDen. When this happens, they automatically receive your IP address and possibly other information like your browser type or device. These tools are used to measure the effectiveness of their ad campaigns and/or to personalize the advertising content that you see on websites you visit.

Please note that ScholarshipDen has no access to or control over the cookies and tracking technologies that are used by third-party advertisers. Each of our advertising partners has its own Privacy Policy for its policies on user data. We recommend consulting the privacy policies of those third-party ad servers for more detailed information on their practices, as well as for instructions on how to opt-out of certain practices.
