Privacy policy
Last updated: August 13, 2026
Archived University Pages is committed to handling your personal information responsibly. This policy explains what data we collect, how we use it, and what rights you have regarding your information. Please read it carefully before using the site.
Who we are
This policy applies to the Archived University Pages website. When we say "we," "us," or "our," we mean the editorial team that operates this site. For privacy-related questions, please use the contact details provided on our Contact page.
Information we collect
We collect two broad categories of information:
- Information you provide directly. When you submit a contact form or send us an email, we receive the details you include, such as your name, email address, and the content of your message.
- Information collected automatically. When you browse the site, our analytics tools collect technical data including your approximate location (country or region), browser type, operating system, referring URL, pages visited, and time spent on each page. This data is aggregated and does not directly identify you.
How we use your information
We use the information we collect to:
- Respond to your inquiries, corrections, and feedback
- Understand how readers use the site so we can improve content and navigation
- Monitor for technical errors and security issues
- Fulfill any legal obligations that apply to us
We do not use your information for advertising, profiling, or automated decision-making.
Analytics
This site uses a privacy-respecting analytics service to measure traffic and reader engagement. The analytics tool collects aggregated, non-personally identifiable usage data. We do not use advertising networks or behavioral tracking cookies. For more detail on how cookies work on this site, please see our Cookies policy.
How we share your information
We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information. We may share data in the following limited circumstances:
- Service providers. We work with third-party providers (such as hosting and analytics services) who process data on our behalf under appropriate data-protection agreements.
- Legal requirements. We may disclose information if required to do so by law or in response to valid legal process.
- Protection of rights. We may share information where necessary to protect the safety, rights, or property of the site, its team, or the public.
Data retention
We retain contact form submissions and email correspondence for as long as necessary to address your inquiry and for a reasonable period afterward in case of follow-up. Anonymized analytics data may be retained for up to 26 months. When data is no longer needed, it is securely deleted or anonymized.
Your rights
Depending on where you are located, you may have the right to:
- Access the personal data we hold about you
- Request correction of inaccurate data
- Request deletion of your data
- Object to or restrict certain types of processing
- Withdraw consent where processing is based on consent
To exercise any of these rights, please contact us via our Contact page. We will respond within a reasonable timeframe.
Third-party links
Our site may contain links to external websites, including archived institutional pages and other reference sources. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of those sites and encourage you to review their policies before sharing any personal information.
Children's privacy
This site is not directed at children under the age of 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has submitted personal information to us, please contact us and we will delete it promptly.
Changes to this policy
We may update this privacy policy from time to time. When we do, we will revise the "Last updated" date at the top of the page. We encourage you to review this policy periodically. Continued use of the site after changes are posted constitutes your acceptance of the updated policy.
