Privacy Policy

📅 Last updated: May 9, 2026

At Radiography 101 ("we," "our," or "us"), we take your privacy seriously. This policy explains what information we collect when you visit radiography101.org, how we use it, and your rights regarding that data.

1. Information We Collect

Automatically Collected Data

Like most websites, we receive standard technical information when you visit:

• Log data — IP address, browser type, referring page, pages visited, time spent, date/time stamps. This is standard web server logging and is not linked to your identity.
• Cookies — small text files stored in your browser. We use cookies for essential functionality and third-party services (see Section 3).

We Do NOT Collect

• Personal identification information (name, email, address)
• Account credentials (we have no login system)
• Payment information
• Any data you do not voluntarily provide

2. How We Use Information

We use automatically collected data solely for:

• Site operation — serving pages, fixing broken links, monitoring uptime
• Analytics — understanding which pages are popular so we can improve content
• Security — detecting and blocking malicious traffic

We do not sell, rent, trade, or share your data with anyone for marketing purposes.

3. Third-Party Services

We use the following third-party services that may collect data independently. Each has its own privacy policy:

Google AdSense

We display advertisements via Google AdSense. Google uses cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to our site and other websites. Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads based on your visit to our site and/or other sites on the Internet.

• Users may opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings.
• Alternatively, visit www.aboutads.info to opt out of third-party vendor cookies.

Google Analytics

We use Google Analytics to understand how visitors interact with our site. Google Analytics collects information such as pages visited, time on site, and referring URLs. This data is aggregated and anonymized.

• You can opt out of Google Analytics by installing the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.

Cloudflare

Our site is served through Cloudflare's content delivery network. Cloudflare may collect technical data (IP address, browser information) for security and performance purposes. See Cloudflare's Privacy Policy.

Ko-fi / Buy Me a Coffee

If you click our support button, you'll be redirected to Ko-fi.com, which operates under its own privacy policy. We do not receive or store any payment information.

4. Cookies

Cookies used on this site fall into these categories:

• Essential — required for the site to function (Cloudflare security). Cannot be disabled.
• Advertising — set by Google AdSense to serve relevant ads.
• Analytics — set by Google Analytics to measure traffic.

You can control cookies through your browser settings. Most browsers allow you to block or delete cookies. Note that blocking cookies may affect how ads are displayed but won't break site functionality.

5. Data Retention

Server logs are retained for up to 30 days for security and debugging purposes, then automatically rotated and deleted. We do not maintain long-term visitor logs or databases of personal information.

6. Children's Privacy

Radiography 101 is an educational resource for radiologic technology students and professionals. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided personal data through this site, please contact us and we will delete it promptly.

7. Your Rights

Depending on your jurisdiction (GDPR in Europe, CCPA in California, etc.), you may have rights including:

• The right to know what personal data is collected
• The right to request deletion of your data
• The right to opt out of the sale of personal data (we don't sell data)
• The right to non-discrimination for exercising these rights

Since we collect minimal data and have no user accounts, exercising these rights is straightforward — most data is already anonymized or ephemeral. Contact us with any concerns.

8. Changes to This Policy

We may update this privacy policy from time to time. Changes will be posted on this page with an updated "Last updated" date. We encourage you to review this policy periodically.
