Privacy Policy
Last updated: May 3, 2026
Introduction
This privacy policy explains how college-textbook-edition-skipper.hub2.day (the "Site") handles information when you visit or interact with it. The Site is a focused reference tool that helps students determine whether a newer textbook edition is meaningfully different from the previous one and whether an older, cheaper edition may be suitable for a course.
Information You Provide
The Site may let you enter textbook details (such as title, author, edition number, ISBN, or course name) directly in your browser. These inputs are used only to generate results for you and are not stored on our servers unless you explicitly submit them through a contact form or feedback feature. If you contact us at hello@college-textbook-edition-skipper.hub2.day, we will use your email address only to respond to your request.
Browser-Local Processing
Many features of the Site run locally in your browser using JavaScript. In those cases, your textbook search queries and comparison inputs may be processed on your device and may be stored in your browser’s local storage or session storage so you can continue where you left off. This data stays on your device unless you clear it.
Cookies and Local Storage
The Site may use cookies and similar technologies (including localStorage and sessionStorage) for:
- Remembering your preferences, such as consent choices and display settings.
- Operating basic site functionality, such as keeping your session active.
- Supporting advertising and measuring ad performance, if applicable.
You can control cookies through your browser settings. Disabling cookies may affect some features of the Site.
Google AdSense and Advertising
The Site uses Google AdSense to display ads. Google and its partners may use cookies and similar technologies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this Site or other sites. These technologies may collect information such as:
- Your IP address.
- Browser type and settings.
- Pages you visit on the Site and the date/time of those visits.
- Device identifiers and other signals, as described in Google’s own policies.
For more information, see Google’s Privacy Policy and How Google uses data when you use our partners’ sites or apps.
GDPR / EEA / UK Consent

- Accept all non-essential cookies and similar technologies.

We retain personal information only as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes described in this policy, comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce our policies. Browser-local data (such as localStorage) remains on your device until you clear it. Server and security logs are retained only as long as reasonably necessary for security and operational purposes.
