MedCrack Academy: Protecting Your Privacy

MedCrack Academy is committed to protecting your privacy and ensuring a safe and secure experience on our online learning platform. We help medical professionals and students connect, share knowledge, and stay updated with the latest in the medical community. By using MedCrack Academy (https://medcrackacademy.com), you agree to the practices described in this Privacy Policy.

1. Who We Are

MedCrack Academy is an online learning platform dedicated to supporting medical professionals and students. We provide comprehensive courses, expert guidance, and tools to enhance your medical journey. This Privacy Policy outlines how we collect, use, and share your data.

2. Information We Collect

We collect various types of information to provide and improve our services:

  • Comments: When visitors leave comments, we collect the data shown in the comment form, along with the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent to help with spam detection. An anonymized string from your email address (a “hash”) may be shared with the Gravatar service to check if you use it. You can review Gravatar’s privacy policy here: Automattic Privacy Policy. Once your comment is approved, your profile picture is publicly displayed alongside your comment.
  • Media: If you upload images to our website, please avoid including location data (EXIF GPS). Visitors can download and extract location data from images posted on the site.
  • Cookies: We use cookies to enhance your browsing experience:
  • Comments: If you leave a comment, you may opt-in to saving your name, email, and website in cookies for convenience on future comments. These cookies last one year.
  • Login: A temporary cookie checks if your browser accepts cookies upon login. It contains no personal data and is discarded when you close your browser.
  • User Preferences: When you log in, cookies save your login information (lasting two days) and screen display choices (lasting one year). Selecting “Remember Me” extends login cookies for two weeks.
  • Content Editing: When editing or publishing articles, an additional cookie with no personal data indicates the article ID and expires after one day.
  • Embedded Content from Other Websites: Articles may include embedded content (e.g., videos, images). Embedded content from other sites behaves as if the visitor visited those sites, potentially collecting data, using cookies, and tracking your interactions. We recommend reviewing their privacy policies as they may differ from ours.

3. How We Use Your Information

Your information allows us to provide and improve our services, including:

  • Facilitating user interaction and communication through comments
  • Personalizing user experiences, such as by remembering login details
  • Ensuring platform security and managing account settings
  • Enabling seamless interactions with embedded third-party content

4. Data Sharing and Third-Party Services

  • We do not sell or share your data for marketing purposes.
  • Data is only shared with trusted third-party services essential to the site’s functionality, such as the Gravatar service.
  • If you request a password reset, your IP address will be included in the reset email.

5. Data Retention

We retain collected data to provide efficient services:

  • Comments: Comments and metadata are retained indefinitely to recognize and approve follow-up comments without moderation.
  • Registered Users: For users who register, we store personal information in their user profile. Users can view, edit, or delete this information at any time (with the exception of their username). Website administrators also have access to user profiles.

6. Your Rights Over Your Data

You have the right to:

  • Request an export file of the personal data we hold about you, including any data you provided.
  • Request deletion of your personal data. However, some data may be retained for administrative, legal, or security purposes.

7. Where Your Data is Sent

Visitor comments may be processed through an automated spam detection service. Data sharing with third parties is limited to services required for site functionality and is compliant with applicable privacy regulations.

8. Security Measures

MedCrack Academy employs security measures to protect your data. However, no online data transmission or storage is entirely secure. While we strive to use commercially acceptable means to protect your data, we cannot guarantee its absolute security.

9. Changes to This Privacy Policy

MedCrack Academy reserves the right to modify this Privacy Policy as necessary. Changes will be posted on this page, and your continued use of our platform signifies acceptance of the updated terms.
