Digital Advertising and Analytics
We may partner with ad networks and other ad serving providers (“Advertising Providers”) that serve ads on behalf of us and others on non-affiliated platforms.  Some of those ads may be personalized, meaning that they are intended to be relevant to you based on information Advertising Providers collect about your use of the Services and other sites or apps over time, including information about relationships among different browsers and devices.  This type of advertising is known as interest-based advertising.

You may visit the DAA Webchoices tool at https://youradchoices.com/ to learn more about this type of advertising and how to opt out of this advertising on websites by companies participating in the DAA self-regulatory program.  You can also exercise choices regarding interest-based advertising on your mobile device by downloading the appropriate version of the DAA’s AppChoices tool at https://youradchoices.com/appchoices.

If you delete your cookies or use a different browser or mobile device, you may need to renew your opt-out choices exercised through the DAA Webchoices and AppChoices tools.  Note that electing to opt out will not stop advertising from appearing in your browser or applications.  It may make the ads you see less relevant to your interests.
 

We may also work with third parties that collect data about your use of the Services and other sites or apps over time for non-advertising purposes.  Study Hotels uses Google Analytics and other third-party services to improve the performance of the Services and for analytics and marketing purposes.  For more information about how Google Analytics collects and uses data when you use our Services, visit www.google.com/policies/privacy/partners, and to opt out of Google Analytics, visit tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout.
 

Additionally, your browser may offer tools to limit the use of cookies or to delete cookies; however, if you use these tools, our Services may not function as intended.


Third-Party Links and Tools

The Services may provide links to third-party websites or apps. 

The Services also include integrated social media tools or “plug-ins,” such as social networking tools offered by third parties.  If you use these tools to share personal information or you otherwise interact with these features on the Services, those companies may collect information about you and may use and share such information in accordance with your account settings, including by sharing such information with the general public. 

Your interactions with third-party companies and your use of their websites, apps, or features are governed by the privacy policies of the companies that provide them.  We encourage you to carefully read the privacy policies of any accounts you create and use.
 

Your Choices

To opt out of our email marketing, you can use the link provided at the bottom of each marketing message.  If you opt out of our email marketing, we will still send you messages related to our transactions and relationship with you, such as booking confirmations.
