When you visit EnglishWell, technical information may include your IP address, browser, device, pages visited, referring page and access times. Site infrastructure providers may process this information to deliver pages, maintain security and investigate errors.

Cookies and similar technologies

Cookies are small files stored by your browser. Similar technologies include local storage, pixels and web beacons. Depending on the features and advertising used on a page, these technologies may remember preferences, measure visits, detect invalid traffic and support advertising.

Some technologies operate for one visit. Others remain until they expire or you remove them. Blocking them may affect site features or advertising choices.

Google and third-party advertising

When EnglishWell displays advertising, third-party vendors, including Google, may use cookies to serve ads based on your earlier visits to this site or other websites.

Google's advertising cookies enable Google and its partners to serve personalized ads based on visits to EnglishWell and other sites. Advertising providers may also use IP addresses, device identifiers, pixels and web beacons to deliver and measure ads, limit repeated ads and detect fraud.

This processing may involve sharing technical information with advertising providers. Their privacy policies explain their own data practices.
