Cookies and your privacy

We keep only what the site needs to work: a sign-in session if you have an account, and a record of the choices you make here. No analytics, no advertising, no cross-site tracking. See our privacy notice.

Privacy

Privacy notice

What this site stores on your device, what you send us, and what we deliberately do not do. Written from a direct audit of the site's code.

The short version

Nursing School Magazine is a reading site. There is no analytics, no advertising and no tracking on it. Apart from a sign-in session if you have an account, everything the site stores stays in your own browser.

What is stored on your device

The site's own code sets no cookies. Two items live in your browser's local storage, and you can see both below. Your consent record is never transmitted anywhere; it only tells this browser what you allowed.

What is storedWhereWhyHow long
nsm_consentYour browser (localStorage)Remembers the cookie choices you make here, with the date you made them. It stays in your browser and is never sent to us.Until you change your choices or clear your browser storage.
base44_access_tokenYour browser (localStorage)Keeps you signed in if you have an account. It is sent to our servers only to authenticate your requests.Until you sign out, or the session expires.

What you send us, and what we do with it

There is no contact form on this site. If you create an account or sign in, we receive your email address and name so we can sign you in and send you the emails that go with that, such as a sign-in code or a password reset.

If you message us through one of our channels listed on the contact page, we receive whatever you choose to include, and we use it only to answer you.

What we do not do

  • No analytics, and no tracking scripts of any kind.
  • No advertising, ad networks or advertising identifiers.
  • No cross-site tracking, fingerprinting or profiling.
  • No third-party players or embeds on any page.
  • No selling, renting or sharing of personal data.
  • No fonts or scripts loaded from someone else's CDN.

Who else is involved

The site is hosted on the Base44 platform, which also provides the database, the sign-in and the transactional emails that go with it. Images published in an edition are served from that platform's storage.

Fonts used by this site are served from this site itself, not from an outside font service.

Curated articles link out to the publisher that wrote them, and our network links point to YouTube, teachclub.com and digitalnursingschoolflashcards.com. Those sites are outside our control and only see you if you click through, at which point their own privacy policies apply.

How long we keep things

The consent record stays in your browser until you change it or clear it. Account details are kept until you ask us to delete them. Messages you send us are kept for as long as they are needed to answer you and keep a record of the exchange.

Your choices and rights

You can accept, reject or change any optional category at any time, as easily as you gave it: use at the bottom of any page to reopen the preferences panel and withdraw a choice.

You can ask us what we hold about you, ask us to correct it, or ask us to delete it by reaching us through the contact page. If you believe your data has been handled badly, you have the right to complain to your national data protection authority.

Changes to this notice

If this notice changes, or if a new category is added to the cookie panel, your saved choices are discarded and you are asked again the next time you visit.
