By accessing and using the LMS, you agree to the practices described in this policy.

Our website address is: https://unbar.digital. This policy applies to all interactions with the LMS, including the affiliate portal.

Information Collection

When you create an account, we collect personal details such as your name, email address, and other relevant information.

We may collect additional data such as course progress, engagement metrics, IP addresses, and browser information to help improve our services.

Affiliate users will have specific data collected regarding referral activity and commission earnings.

For security and spam detection, we may also collect your IP address, browser user agent string, and other technical information when you interact with the LMS.

Use of Information

Cookies and Tracking

Cookies: We use cookies to remember your login details, course progress, and affiliate activities for your convenience. For instance, if you leave a comment or log in, cookies help us remember your details for future visits. These cookies typically last from one day to one year.

Tracking Technologies: We may use cookies, tracking pixels, and similar technologies to understand user behavior, including affiliate link interactions and purchases.

Opting Out: You can adjust your browser settings to block cookies, but this may affect your experience on the LMS and affiliate portal.

Data Security

We use industry-standard security protocols to protect your personal information from unauthorized access, alteration, or disclosure. While we strive to protect your data, please be aware that no platform can guarantee 100% security.

Embedded Content

Articles or pages on the LMS may include embedded content (e.g., videos or articles). This embedded content behaves as if you have visited the third-party website directly, meaning they may collect data, use cookies, and track your interactions.

Third-Party Sharing

We may share anonymized, aggregated data with third parties for analytics and research purposes. However, we do not sell or trade your personal data to third parties without your explicit consent.

Affiliate activity (e.g., earnings, referrals) will never be shared with third parties outside of necessary payment processing or as required by law.

Your Rights Over Your Data

You have the right to access, update, or delete the personal data we hold about you, including affiliate-related data. To exercise these rights, please contact us at support@unbar.digital.

Please note that we may retain some information for legal or administrative reasons, such as preventing fraud or complying with legal obligations.
