Privacy Policy

This policy explains what information Surviving Law School collects when you visit, how that information is used, and the choices you have. By using the site, you agree to what is described here. If you do not agree, please do not use the site.

Information I collect

I do not ask you to create an account, and I do not ask you to hand over personal information like your name or email in order to read the guides.

Like most websites, some information is collected automatically when you visit. This can include your browser and device type, your general location based on your IP address, the pages you view, how long you stay, and the site you arrived from. This is standard usage data, and it is used to understand how the site is doing and to make it better.

Cookies

This site and the services it relies on use cookies, which are small files stored in your browser. Cookies help the site work, remember basic preferences, measure traffic, and, through advertising partners, help show ads. You can control or delete cookies in your browser settings, though some parts of the site may not work as well without them.

Advertising

This site is supported by advertising, and I use Google AdSense to display ads. Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this site and to other sites. Google's use of advertising cookies lets it and its partners show ads to you based on your visits here and elsewhere on the internet.

You can opt out of personalized advertising through Google's Ads Settings. You can also opt out of many third-party vendors' use of cookies for personalized ads at aboutads.info, or, if you are in Europe, at youronlinechoices.eu.

Analytics

I may use analytics tools, such as Google Analytics, to understand how visitors use the site. These tools collect usage data in the same automatic way described above, and they help me see which guides are useful and where the site can improve.

Links to other sites

The guides link to other websites, such as law schools, the ABA, and LSAC. I do not control those sites and am not responsible for their privacy practices or their content, so please read their own policies when you visit them.

Children

This site is intended for people pursuing or considering law school, and it is not directed to children under 13. I do not knowingly collect personal information from children.

Your choices and rights

You can control cookies through your browser, opt out of personalized ads as described above, and choose not to click on ads or links. Depending on where you live, you may have rights to access or delete personal information about you. If you have a request like that, email me at the address below and I will do my best to help.

Security

I take reasonable steps to keep the site secure, but no website, and no method of sending information over the internet, is completely secure. For that reason, I cannot promise absolute security.

Changes to this policy

I may update this policy from time to time. When I do, I will change the date at the top. Please check back now and then so you know what is current.
