PERSONAL INFORMATION WE COLLECT
When you visit The Hmmmschooling Mom, we automatically collect certain information about your device, including information about your web browser, IP address, time zone, and some of the cookies that are installed on your device. Additionally, as you browse The Hmmmschooling Mom, we collect information about the individual web pages you viewed, what websites or search terms referred you to The Hmmmschooling Mom, and information about how you interact with The Hmmmschooling Mom. We refer to this automatically-collected information as “Device Information.” We aren’t trying to be creepy or anything, we just want to show you more of what you like and figure out how you found us.
We collect Device Information using the following technologies:
- Cookies are data files that are placed on your device or computer and often include an anonymous unique identifier. If only they were the chocolate chip kind. For more information about non-edible cookies and how to disable cookies, visit http://www.allaboutcookies.org.
- Log Files track actions occurring on The Hmmmschooling Mom, and collect data including your IP address, browser type, Internet service provider, referring/exit pages, and date/time stamps. Again, it helps us get to know you a little better. We aim to please.
- Web Beacons, Tags, and Pixels are electronic files used to record information about how you browse The Hmmmschooling Mom. Honestly, even we don’t know what this is all about, but it seems like its on the up and up.
When we talk about “Personal Information” in this Privacy Policy, we are talking about the above mentioned Device Information. It gets a little redundant at this point.
We use the Device Information that we collect to help us screen for potential risk and fraud (I mean, we don’t know you from Adam. Is your name Adam? Personal Information doesn’t tell us that), and more generally to improve and optimize our Site.

For example, we use Google Analytics to help us understand how our friends use The Hmmmschooling Mom — you can read more about how Google uses your Personal Information here.

Finally, we may also share your Personal Information to comply with applicable laws and regulations, to respond to a subpoena, search warrant or other lawful request for information we receive, or to otherwise protect our rights. Don’t break the law and we are totally good.

DO NOT TRACK
Please note that we do not alter our Site’s data collection and use practices when we see a Do Not Track signal from your browser. Honestly, we wouldn’t even know where to begin doing that if we wanted to. Tracking just sort of happens in the magical world of the internet.

Mediavine Programmatic Advertising (Ver 1.1)
The Website works with Mediavine to manage third-party interest-based advertising appearing on the Website. Mediavine serves content and advertisements when you visit the Website, which may use first and third-party cookies. A cookie is a small text file which is sent to your computer or mobile device (referred to in this policy as a “device”) by the web server so that a website can remember some information about your browsing activity on the Website.
First party cookies are created by the website that you are visiting. A third-party cookie is frequently used in behavioral advertising and analytics and is created by a domain other than the website you are visiting. Third-party cookies, tags, pixels, beacons and other similar technologies (collectively, “Tags”) may be placed on the Website to monitor interaction with advertising content and to target and optimize advertising. Each internet browser has functionality so that you can block both first and third-party cookies and clear your browser’s cache. The “help” feature of the menu bar on most browsers will tell you how to stop accepting new cookies, how to receive notification of new cookies, how to disable existing cookies and how to clear your browser’s cache. For more information about cookies and how to disable them, you can consult the information at All About Cookies.
Without cookies you may not be able to take full advantage of the Website content and features. Please note that rejecting cookies does not mean that you will no longer see ads when you visit our Site. In the event you opt-out, you will still see non-personalized advertisements on the Website.
The Website collects the following data using a cookie when serving personalized ads:
- IP Address
- Operating System type
- Operating System version
- Device Type
- Language of the website
- Web browser type
- Email (in hashed form)
Mediavine Partners (companies listed below with whom Mediavine shares data) may also use this data to link to other end user information the partner has independently collected to deliver targeted advertisements. Mediavine Partners may also separately collect data about end users from other sources, such as advertising IDs or pixels, and link that data to data collected from Mediavine publishers in order to provide interest-based advertising across your online experience, including devices, browsers and apps. This data includes usage data, cookie information, device information, information about interactions between users and advertisements and websites, geolocation data, traffic data, and information about a visitor’s referral source to a particular website. Mediavine Partners may also create unique IDs to create audience segments, which are used to provide targeted advertising.
