Cookie Policy
ScholarOut keeps cookies to the minimum needed to run the site. We use no advertising cookies and no cross-site tracking. Last updated: October 13, 2026.
What cookies are
Cookies are small text files a website saves in your browser. Similar technologies, such as your browser's local storage, work in much the same way. In this policy, "cookies" covers both.
Cookies we use
ScholarOut uses only strictly necessary cookies:
- Sign-in: keeps you signed in as you move between pages, and signs you out when you choose to.
- Security: helps protect your account and the site from misuse.
- Site function: remembers short-term choices needed for a page to work properly.
Cookies we don't use
We do not sell cookie data to anyone. This matters especially because many of our members are children.
- Advertising or retargeting cookies.
- Cross-site tracking or social media tracking pixels.
- Third-party analytics cookies that build a profile of you.
Your choices
Because we only use strictly necessary cookies, they don't require consent and there are no optional cookies to switch off. You can still block or delete cookies through your browser settings, but ScholarOut's sign-in will stop working if you do. Visit our Cookie Preferences page for more.
If we ever introduce optional cookies, we will update this policy first and ask for your permission before setting them.
