Cookies
Cookies are small text files stored on your device. ICU Notebook itself does not set cookies. However, third-party services we use (Google AdSense, Google Analytics) do use cookies. These cookies help personalize ads and analyze traffic.
You can control cookies through your browser settings. Disabling cookies may affect ad personalization but will not prevent the site from loading.
We use Google AdSense advertising on this site. Google's use of the DoubleClick cookie enables it and its partners to serve ads to users based on visits to this and other sites on the Internet. You may opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google's Ads Settings.
Affiliate Links
This site contains affiliate links — primarily Amazon Associates links and links to other financial products and services. If you click a link and make a purchase, we may earn a commission at no additional cost to you. See our full Affiliate Disclosure for details.
We only link to products and services we believe are genuinely useful. Commissions do not influence our reviews or recommendations.
Third-Party Links
Articles on this site may link to external websites (hospital systems, nursing boards, Amazon, financial institutions, etc.). We are not responsible for the privacy practices of those sites. We encourage you to review their privacy policies before providing any personal information.
Children's Privacy
This site is intended for adults. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has submitted personal information to this site, contact us and we will delete it.
Data Security
Because this is a static site hosted on GitHub Pages, we do not store user data on our own servers. Any data collection is handled by the third-party services described above, subject to their own security practices.

If you are in the European Economic Area (EEA) or California, you may have rights regarding personal data collected by the third-party services we use. Contact those services directly (Google, Beehiiv) to exercise those rights, or contact us at the email below and we will assist where we can.
