Privacy Policy

MATHMONKS.COM Privacy Policy

Revised: January 19, 2026

This privacy policy (“Privacy Policy”) describes how and why Seale Media, LLC and its affiliated brands (collectively, “Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) might collect, store, use, and/or share (“process”) your information when you use our services, including without limitation when you visit https://mathmonks.com/ (the “Website”) or engage with us in other related ways (collectively, the “Services”).

BY USING THE SERVICES, YOU AGREE YOU (1) HAVE READ OUR TERMS OF USE AND THIS PRIVACY POLICY IN THEIR ENTIRETY; AND (2) UNDERSTAND, AND FULLY ACCEPT OUR TERMS OF USE AND THIS PRIVACY POLICY (COLLECTIVELY, THE “TERMS”). IF YOU DO NOT AGREE TO BE BOUND BY THE TERMS, YOU ARE NOT AUTHORIZED TO ACCESS OR USE OUR SERVICES AND MUST PROMPTLY DISCONTINUE USING AND EXIT THE SERVICES.

1. WHAT INFORMATION DO WE COLLECT?

We collect personal information that you voluntarily provide to us or that is collected automatically when you visit or otherwise participate in activities on the Services, or when you contact us. This information is collected if you request information from us, participate in a contest or sweepstakes, sign up to join our email list, or request some other service or information from us. The information collected is internally reviewed, used to improve the content of our Websites, notify our visitors of updates, and respond to visitor inquiries. You are under no obligation to provide us with personal information of any kind; however, your refusal to do so may prevent you from using certain features of the Services.

Personally Identifiable Information (“PII”) you disclose to us.

The personally identifiable information (“PII” or “personal information”), which may specifically identify an individual or business, that we collect depends on the context of your interactions with us and the Services, the choices you make, and the products and features you use. The personal information we collect may include the following:

names;
addresses
phone numbers;
email addresses;
mailing addresses;
contact preferences;
comment content (display name, email, comment)
your preference to save your name, email, and website for future comments (stored via a cookie on your device); and
company name; and
any other identifiers that you voluntarily provide in connection with accessing or using the Websites and/or Services.

Non-Personally Identifying Information (“Non-PII”) automatically collected.

In some cases, we may automatically collect certain information when you visit, use, or navigate the Services. This non-personally identifying information (“Non-PII”) does not reveal your specific identity (like your name or contact information) but may include device and usage information, such as your IP address, browser and device characteristics and history, operating system, language preferences, referring URLs, device name, date and time stamps, and general location inferred from your IP address. Please note that under many U.S. state privacy laws, an IP address is considered “personal information,” and we treat it as such in this Privacy Policy. This information is primarily used to maintain the security and operation of our Services, for our internal analytics and reporting purposes, and for assisting us in providing you with targeted marketing and promotional content. We may derive inferences from this information to create a profile reflecting your preferences, characteristics, or behavior. We do not sell personal information for money. We may “sell” or “share” personal information as those terms are defined by certain U.S. state privacy laws through the use of advertising cookies, pixels, and similar technologies that enable cross-context behavioral advertising.

Notice at Collection (California and similar laws).

We collect the following categories of personal information: Identifiers (e.g., name, email, IP address), Internet/Network Activity, General Geolocation Data, and Inferences. We collect these categories from you, your devices, our service providers, and third parties (e.g., ad networks and analytics providers) for the purposes described in Section 2. We may disclose these categories to service providers and contractors for business purposes and may “sell” and/or “share” personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising and engage in “targeted advertising” as described below. We retain personal information for the periods described in Section 5. To exercise your rights, including to opt out of sale/sharing and targeted advertising, use the “Do not sell or share my personal information” link available in the footer of the Websites. This Notice at Collection is provided at or before the point of collection and links to this Privacy Policy.

For information regarding what cookies are and how they are used, please refer to our Cookie Notice.

3. WHEN AND WITH WHOM DO WE SHARE YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION?

Vendors, Consultants, and Other Third-Party Service Providers.

We are not responsible for the content or privacy practices of third-party advertisers or for communications they send. If you no longer wish to receive communications from a third party, please contact that third party directly.

Sale/Share/Targeted Advertising Disclosures. We do not sell personal information for money. We may “sell” or “share” personal information as those terms are defined by certain U.S. state privacy laws by allowing advertising, social media, and analytics partners to collect personal information via cookies, pixels, software development kits (SDKs), or similar technologies in our Services for cross-context behavioral advertising and measurement. You may opt out of such “sale,” “sharing,” and “targeted advertising” at any time as described in Sections 8–10 and via the “Do not sell or share my personal information” link in the footer of the Websites.

4. THIRD PARTY WEBSITES

THE WEBSITES AND/OR SERVICES MAY CONTAIN LINKS TO THIRD PARTY OWNED AND/OR OPERATED WEBSITES. WE ARE NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR THE PRIVACY PRACTICES OR THE CONTENT OF ANY THIRD-PARTY WEBSITE. We suggest that you contact these third parties directly for information regarding their privacy, security, and data collection and distribution policies prior to providing them with any information. We are not responsible for managing third-party communications; to stop receiving communications from a third party, please contact that third party directly.

The Websites currently uses the following third-party service providers who, to our knowledge, may collect personal information as follows:

Google Analytics: Tracks Website usage and provides information such as referring websites and user actions on the Website. Google Analytics may capture your IP address and use cookies to measure engagement. You can learn more in Google’s Privacy Policy. You can opt out of Google Analytics by installing the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on. For more on Google’s data practices, see “How Google uses information from websites or apps that use our services.” By accessing the Website, you consent to the collection and use of your information by Google Analytics as described in its policies and tools. We do not transfer your personal information directly to Google Analytics.
CMI Marketing, Inc., d/b/a Raptive: Provides ad placement for the Services. Raptive may collect and use certain data for advertising purposes, including via cookies/pixels, and may receive limited technical data from Cloudflare as described below. For example, when you subscribe to our newsletter, Raptive may collect limited information such as your email (in hashed form), IP address, and browser/OS details to help deliver and measure advertising. See Raptive’s Creator Advertising Privacy Statement for details.
Akismet: Provides automated spam detection for comments. For this purpose, Akimset receives the comment content you submit, your name and email (as provided in the comment form), IP address, user agent, referrer, and other technical metadata to help identify and block spam. Akismet may retain data for a period consistent with spam-detection and security practices. See Akismet’s Privacy Policy for more information.

This list is illustrative and may change over time. Our Cookie Notice provides additional information about cookies and similar technologies used by us and our partners. Advertising partners may collect personal information directly from your browser or device via cookies, pixels, and similar technologies for ad delivery, measurement, and analytics. You can control these practices via our “Do not sell or share my personal information” link and through browser settings as described in Section 8 and our Cookie Notice.

User-Generated Content. If you submit user-generated content (including comments, reviews, posts, or other submissions), that content may be visible to others and may be distributed outside the Website for any purpose. Public content may be indexed by search engines, cached, archived, or redistributed by others and may persist even after removal from the Services.

Sponsored Content. From time to time, we may provide sponsored content in which we are compensated (e.g., for recipe development, product reviews, or other work). Sponsored content may contain separate tracking pixels that allow analysis of campaign effectiveness, such as whether a specific link was clicked. This behavior may be passed on to third parties.

Affiliate Marketing. The Services may engage in affiliate marketing, which is done by embedding tracking links. If you click on an affiliate link, a cookie may be placed on your browser to track any sales for purposes of commissions.

5. HOW LONG DO WE KEEP YOUR INFORMATION?

When we no longer have a legitimate business need to process your personal information, we will either delete or anonymize such information, or, if this is not possible (for example, because your personal information has been stored in backup archives), we will securely store your personal information and isolate it from any further processing until deletion is possible. We retain personal information only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this Privacy Policy, including to satisfy legal, accounting, or reporting requirements, and then delete or de-identify it consistent with applicable law.

Category-Level Retention (California and similar laws): We apply the following retention periods or criteria to the categories collected:

Identifiers (e.g., name, email): retained for the duration of your relationship with us and up to 3 years thereafter for recordkeeping, compliance, and anti-fraud, unless a longer period is required by law.
Internet/Network Activity and Device Data: retained for up to 24 months from collection for security, analytics, and service improvement.
General Geolocation: retained in log files for up to 24 months for security and analytics.
Inferences: retained for up to 24 months for personalization and marketing optimization or until you opt out or delete your data, whichever occurs first.
Comments and comment metadata: retained for as long as needed to display the comment, manage the community, and prevent spam/abuse, consistent with our legitimate interests and legal obligations.

We may retain data for longer where required to comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, or enforce our agreements.

6. HOW DO WE KEEP YOUR INFORMATION SAFE?

We have implemented appropriate and reasonable technical and organizational security measures designed to protect the security of any personal information we process. However, despite our safeguards and efforts to secure your information, no electronic transmission over the Internet or information storage technology can be guaranteed to be 100% secure, so we cannot promise or guarantee that hackers, cybercriminals, or other unauthorized third parties will not be able to defeat our security and improperly collect, access, steal, or modify your information. Although we will do our best to protect your personal information, transmission of personal information to and from our Services is at your own risk. In the event of a data breach involving personal information, we will provide notifications as required by applicable law.

The information you share in public areas may be viewed by any user of the Websites and/or Services. Content you post publicly may also be indexed by search engines, cached, archived, or redistributed by others and may persist even after deletion from the Services.

7. DO WE COLLECT INFORMATION FROM MINORS?

Our Services are primarily intended for educators and parents/guardians. We provide worksheets and other content that can be accessed without creating an account or submitting personal information.

Children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. Children under 13 may use the Services only to access content that does not require the submission of personal information. If we learn we have collected personal information from a child under 13 without verifiable parental consent, we will delete that information. If you believe we might have any information from or about a child under the age of 13, please contact us by visiting https://mathmonks.com/contact-us. We do not “sell,” “share,” or engage in “targeted advertising” with respect to consumers we know are under 16 unless we have received the required opt-in.

8. WHAT ARE YOUR PRIVACY RIGHTS?

The types of personal data we collect are listed in Section 1 above. If we are relying on your consent to process your personal information, which may be express and/or implied consent depending on the applicable law, you have the right to withdraw your consent at any time. You can withdraw your consent at any time by contacting us by using the contact details provided in Section 15 below. Please refer to our contact information below. However, please note that this will not affect the lawfulness of the processing of your personal information before its withdrawal nor, when applicable law allows, will it affect the processing of your personal information conducted in reliance on lawful processing grounds other than consent.

Opting out of marketing and promotional communications: You can unsubscribe from our marketing and promotional communications at any time by clicking on the unsubscribe link in the emails that we send, or by contacting us using the details provided in Section 15 below. You will then be removed from the marketing lists. However, we may still communicate with you — for example, to send you service-related messages that are necessary for the administration and use of your account, to respond to service requests, or for other non-marketing purposes.

If you do not want us to share your information with nonaffiliated or non-agent third parties for promotional purposes, you may opt out by contacting us using the details provided in Section 15 below.

Cookies and similar technologies. We use cookies, web beacons, tracking pixels, and other tracking technologies on the Website to help customize the Website and improve your experience. When you access the Website, your personal information is not collected through the use of tracking technology. Most browsers are set to accept cookies by default. You can remove or reject cookies, but be aware that such action could affect the availability and functionality of the Website. You may not decline web beacons; however, they can be rendered ineffective by declining all cookies or by modifying your web browser’s settings to notify you each time a cookie is tendered, permitting you to accept or decline cookies on an individual basis. If you choose the option to “save my information for next time” on the comment form, a cookie will be set on your device that stores your name, email, and (if provided) website URL so you do not need to re-enter them for future comments. You can also visit the Digital Advertising Alliance Opt-Out Tool (and comparable tools) to learn more about choices regarding internet-based advertising. Note that getting a new computer, installing a new browser, upgrading an existing browser, or erasing or altering your browser’s cookie files may clear opt-out cookies, plug-ins, or settings. Please refer to our Cookie Notice for additional information.

By accessing the Website, you consent to the collection and use of your information by certain third-party analytics and advertising partners as described in their respective policies and tools. We do not directly transfer your personal information to these vendors; however, they may collect information automatically via their tags and technologies when you use the Services.

Your Privacy Choices (U.S.). You may have the right to: (a) know/access specific pieces and categories of personal information; (b) correct inaccuracies; (c) delete personal information; (d) opt out of the sale or sharing of personal information and of targeted advertising; (e) opt out of certain profiling; and (f) limit the use and disclosure of sensitive personal information.

We will not discriminate against you for exercising your rights.

9. YOUR STATE PRIVACY RIGHTS

Residents of certain states – including California, Colorado, Connecticut, Delaware, Indiana, Iowa, Kentucky, Maryland, Minnesota, Montana, Nebraska, New Hampshire, New Jersey, Oregon, Rhode Island, Tennessee, Texas, Utah, and Virginia – may have additional rights regarding their Personal Information under state privacy laws. These rights may include the ability to:

Confirm whether we process your personal information and access it (including the categories, and in some states, specific pieces of personal information);
Access the categories of personal information we collect, use, disclose, or share (and, where applicable, the specific pieces of personal information);
Correct inaccuracies in your personal information;
Delete personal information we collected from you (and, in some states, personal information we obtained from other sources);
Obtain a portable copy of certain personal information you provided to us; and
Opt-out of:
Targeted advertising (cross-context behavioral advertising);
The “sale” or “sharing” of personal information (as defined by applicable law); and
Certain forms of automated decision-making or profiling (where applicable) that produce legal or similarly significant effects.

Please note, we do not collect or process sensitive personal information as defined by many state laws. If this changes, we will provide required notice and honor applicable rights.

These rights are not absolute and may be subject to statutory exceptions. We will honor your privacy rights as required by the laws of your state of residence.

Exercising Your Rights. You may submit requests by: using our webform linked in the “Do not sell or share my personal information” link in the footer of the Website; or by visiting https://mathmonks.com/contact-us. We may need to verify your identity before processing your request.

Verification and Authorized Agents. We will verify your request using information associated with your account or interactions with us and may request additional information only as reasonably necessary to confirm your identity or authority, as permitted by law. We will not require you to create an account to submit a request. If you submit a request through an authorized agent, we may require proof of authorization (for example, a signed permission from you or a valid power of attorney). For requests to know/access, delete, or correct, we may also require you to verify your identity directly with us. For requests to opt out of “sale,” “sharing,” or “targeted advertising,” we will accept authorized agent requests upon sufficient proof of authority and will not require you to verify your identity directly as a condition of processing. We will not collect or use personal information beyond what is reasonably necessary to verify and process your request, and we will honor valid opt out preference signals (such as Global Privacy Control) without additional steps.

Response Timelines and Frequency. We will respond to your request within the timeframe required by applicable law (generally within 45 days, with a single 45-day extension where reasonably necessary and permitted). In some states, consumers may be limited to a certain number of requests within a 12-month period.

Non-Discrimination. We will not discriminate against you for exercising your privacy rights.

Opt-out Preference Signals. Where required by law, we recognize and honor valid opt-out preference signals (such as Global Privacy Control) for “sale,” “sharing,” and targeted advertising. When we detect a valid signal, we will treat it as a request to opt out for the browser or device and, if reasonably possible and you are authenticated, for your account more broadly. You may also use the “Do not sell or share my personal information” link to manage your choices.

Appeals. We may deny a request where an exception applies (e.g., security, fraud prevention, legal compliance) and will explain our reasons where required. If we deny your request, you may submit an appeal by visiting us at https://mathmonks.com/contact-us within the timeframe required by applicable law (up to 60 days in some states) and referencing your original request. We will respond within the timeframe required by applicable law.

California Privacy Rights. California residents have the additional right to:

Know the categories of personal information we have collected, the categories of sources, the business or commercial purposes for collection or sharing, the categories of third parties to whom we disclose personal information, and the specific pieces of personal information we maintain about you;
Opt-out of the “sale” or “sharing” of personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising;
Limit the use and disclosure of Sensitive Personal information to what is necessary to provide requested services (if applicable);
Have us honor Global Privacy Control (GPC) signals as a valid opt-out request;
Receive information about financial incentives, if offered (we do not offer financial incentives at this time; if this changes, we will provide a Financial Incentive Notice describing the material terms and how to opt in).

“Shine the Light.” California Civil Code § 1798.83 permits California residents to request, once per year and free of charge, information about the categories of personal information (if any) we disclosed to third parties for their direct marketing purposes in the prior calendar year and the names and addresses of those third parties. To submit such a request, contact us using the information in Section 15.

California Minors’ Content Removal. If you are a California resident under 18 and have an account on the Services, you may request removal of content you publicly posted by contacting us using the information in Section 15 and identifying the content. We will make the content no longer publicly visible on the Services, but complete removal (e.g., from caches or archives) may not be possible.

Financial Incentives. We do not offer financial incentives, price or service differences, or loyalty programs in exchange for personal information. If this changes, we will provide a Financial Incentive Notice describing the material terms, categories of personal information implicated, and how to opt in.

10. CONTROLS FOR DO-NOT-TRACK FEATURES

Most web browsers and some mobile operating systems and mobile applications include a Do Not Track (“DNT”) feature or setting you can activate to signal your privacy preference not to have data about your online browsing activities monitored and collected. At this stage no uniform technology standard for recognizing and implementing DNT signals has been finalized. As such, we do not currently respond to DNT browser signals or any other mechanism that automatically communicates your choice not to be tracked online. However, where required by law, we recognize and honor opt-out preference signals for sale/sharing and targeted advertising (such as Global Privacy Control “GPC”). When we detect a valid signal, we will treat it as a request to opt out of sale/sharing and targeted advertising for the browser or device and, if reasonably possible and you are authenticated, for your account more broadly.

11. HOW TO REVIEW, UPDATE, OR DELETE THE DATA WE COLLECT FROM YOU?

Under applicable law, you or someone legally authorized to act on your behalf (your “Authorized Agent”), may make a request to access, correct or delete your PII. You may, under applicable law, also make a request to know or delete PII on behalf of your child (however, please note, we do not knowingly collect any PII of anyone under the age of 13). Requests or exercise of your right(s) can be made by visiting us at https://mathmonks.com/contact-us.

A request or exercise of your right(s) must provide sufficient information that allows us to reasonably verify you are the person about whom we collected personal information or an authorized agent, and should include: (i) the state of which you are a resident; (ii) a description of your request/exercise of your right, with sufficient detail that allows us to properly understand, evaluate, and respond; and (iii) identifying personal information.

We will verify your request using information associated with your account or interactions with us and may request additional information to verify your identity or authority, as permitted by law. We may not accommodate a request to change information if we believe the change would violate any law or legal requirement or cause the information to be incorrect.

12. GOVERNING LAW

This Privacy Policy, and your access to and use of the Websites and Services, as well as any dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or relating to them, will be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Texas without regard to conflict-of-law rules or principles (whether of Texas or any other jurisdiction) that would result in the application of the laws of any other jurisdiction. Any dispute between the parties that is not subject to arbitration or that cannot be heard in small claims court will be resolved exclusively in the state or federal courts located in Bexar County, Texas, and the parties consent to the personal jurisdiction and venue of those courts. Dispute resolution procedures, including arbitration, are as set out in our Terms of Use.

13. INTERNATIONAL USERS

Our Services are directed to individuals in the United States. We do not target or market the Services to users in the European Economic Area (“EEA”) or the United Kingdom (“UK”), and we do not seek to subject ourselves to the laws of any non-U.S. jurisdiction. However, if you access, use, or interact with the Services from outside the United States, including from the EEA/UK, this section applies to you only to the extent we are subject to the privacy laws of your jurisdiction. If there is any conflict between this section and other parts of this Privacy Policy, this section governs for those users and to that extent.

When this Privacy Policy refers to “Company”, “we”, “our” or “us”, it refers collectively to Seale Media, LLC, which is responsible for your information as described in this Privacy Policy.
