At Tab Scholar ("we," "us," "our," or "Tab Scholar"), we value your privacy and are committed to protecting your personal information. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and safeguard information when you visit and use our website and services.

By using Tab Scholar, you agree to the collection and use of information in accordance with this Privacy Policy.

Scope of This Policy

This Privacy Policy applies to Tab Scholar's website, services, and related features. It explains what information we collect, how we use it, and the choices available to you regarding your information.

Please note that Tab Scholar contains links to third-party websites, including scholarship providers, universities, and educational organizations. Information you provide directly to those websites is governed by their own privacy policies, and we are not responsible for their privacy practices.

Information We Collect

Technical Information

When you visit Tab Scholar, certain technical information may be collected automatically, including:

  • IP address
  • Browser type and version
  • Device information
  • Operating system
  • Pages visited
  • Date and time of visits
  • Referring websites
  • General usage and interaction data

This information helps us understand how visitors use our website and improve the user experience.

Cookies and Similar Technologies

Tab Scholar uses cookies and similar technologies to improve website functionality, remember user preferences, analyze traffic, and support advertising services.

You may choose to disable cookies through your browser settings. However, some features of the website may not function properly if cookies are disabled.

Personal Information

We may collect personal information that you voluntarily provide, including:

  • Email address
  • Name (if submitted through forms)
  • Any information you provide when contacting us

For example, if you subscribe to our newsletter, we collect your email address in order to send scholarship updates and educational content.

SAT Prep Account Information

Our Digital SAT Preparation course can be read in full without an account. If you choose to create a free SAT Prep account so that your practice is saved, we collect and store:

  • Your full name
  • Your email address, which also serves as your login
  • Your high school and country, if you choose to provide them (both optional)
  • Your password, stored only as a salted one-way hash — never in readable form

Once you are signed in, we also record your practice activity: which questions you answered, the answer you selected or typed, whether it was correct, the topic and difficulty of the question, and when you answered it. This is what powers your "My progress" page.

This information is used only to operate the course and show you your own progress. We do not sell it, we do not use SAT practice data for advertising or targeting, and we do not share individual results with universities, testing organizations, or any other third party. Tab Scholar is not affiliated with or endorsed by the College Board, and creating an account here does not register you for the SAT.

You may request deletion of your SAT Prep account at any time by contacting us. Deleting the account permanently removes your saved answers and progress along with it.

Advertising and Analytics

Tab Scholar may use third-party services such as advertising networks and analytics providers to help operate and improve the website.

These services may collect information through cookies and similar technologies to:

  • Analyze website traffic and user behavior
  • Measure website performance
  • Display relevant advertisements
  • Improve content and user experience

Third-party providers process information according to their own privacy policies.

Google AdSense

We use Google AdSense to display advertisements on Tab Scholar. Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this website and other websites on the internet.

Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to you based on your visits to Tab Scholar and/or other sites. You may opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings. Alternatively, you can opt out of some third-party vendors' use of cookies for personalized advertising by visiting www.aboutads.info.

Third-Party Scholarship Websites

Tab Scholar serves as a scholarship discovery platform. We provide information and links to scholarships, universities, and educational opportunities offered by third parties.

When you click a link and visit an external website, any information you provide there is subject to that website's privacy policy. Tab Scholar does not collect or process scholarship application data submitted on third-party websites.

Children's Privacy

Tab Scholar is not intended for children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13 years old.

Data Security

We take reasonable measures to protect personal information from unauthorized access, misuse, disclosure, or loss. However, no method of internet transmission or electronic storage can be guaranteed to be completely secure.

We retain personal information only for as long as necessary to provide our services, fulfill legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce our policies.

Newsletter subscribers may request removal of their information at any time by unsubscribing or contacting us.

SAT Prep account information and saved practice results are retained for as long as the account remains open, so that your progress is still there when you return. They are deleted when the account is deleted.

Depending on applicable laws, you may have the right to:

  • Access your personal information
  • Correct inaccurate information
  • Request deletion of your information
  • Object to certain processing activities
  • Withdraw consent where applicable
