We let third party advertising companies track whenever you have visited Oxbridge Notes and its affiliated websites.

Both of these sources of information are used to redisplay advertisements to you on other websites, such as Google, Facebook, Twitter, and websites affiliated with the aforementioned.
We use conversion tracking to track whenever you have done certain commercially valuable actions on our website, chiefly when you have made a purchase. This conversion information is later used by us to figure out what advertising campaigns were effective in triggering this sale. Conversion tracking is done in association with a third party advertising provider (e.g. Twitter, Facebook, Google), who also have access to the data.
Besides storing this data ourselves, the third party providing our chat widget (Fresh Chat) will also have a copy.
We use Google Analytics universal User-ID to associate engagement data from different devices and multiple sessions.
