Privacy Policy
PRIVACY POLICY
Last updated 26 July 2026. This policy explains what Simply MBBS (simplymbbs.com) collects, why, and what you can do about it.
What we collect
- Information you send us. If you email or use the contact form, we receive your name, email address and message. We use it to reply and nothing else.
- Comments. If commenting is enabled, we store the comment, the name and email you supply, and your IP address for spam filtering.
- Automatic technical data. Our host records standard server logs — IP address, browser, pages requested, timestamps — for security and troubleshooting.
- Analytics. We use analytics software to count visits and see which notes are read. This is aggregated and is not used to identify you.
Cookies
Cookies are small files stored by your browser. This site uses them to remember your comment details if you leave one, to keep you logged in if you are an editor, and to support analytics and advertising as described below. You can block or delete cookies in your browser settings; the site will still work.
Advertising
This site may display advertising served by Google and its partners.
- Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this and other websites.
- Google’s use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to you based on your visit to this site and/or other sites on the internet.
- You can opt out of personalised advertising by visiting Google’s Ads Settings at google.com/settings/ads.
- You can opt out of third-party vendors’ use of cookies for personalised advertising at aboutads.info/choices.
How long we keep things
Contact messages are kept while the conversation is useful and then deleted. Comments and their metadata are kept indefinitely so follow-up replies make sense. Server logs are rotated by our host on their own schedule.
Your rights
You can ask what personal data we hold about you, ask for it to be corrected, or ask for it to be deleted. Email admin@simplymbbs.com and we will act within 30 days. Deletion does not extend to anything we are legally required to keep.
Children
This site is aimed at medical students and is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal data from children. If you believe a child has sent us personal information, email us and we will delete it.
Links to other sites
Notes may link to external references. Those sites have their own privacy policies and we are not responsible for them.
Changes
If this policy changes, the date at the top changes with it. Material changes will be noted on this page.
