Privacy Policy

PMP Guide (“we”, “our”, or “us”) operates pmp-guide.com. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect when you visit the site, how we use it, and your choices. We keep it simple — we are not in the business of selling your data.

1. Information We Collect

Email address — only if you voluntarily subscribe to our study newsletter. We use this solely to send PMP exam prep content. You can unsubscribe at any time.

Usage and behavioural data — we use two analytics tools to understand how visitors use the site:

• Vercel Analytics — collects anonymous page view data (page URL, referrer, country, device type). No cookies are set. No personally identifiable information is stored.
• Microsoft Clarity — captures how you use and interact with our website through behavioural metrics, heatmaps, and session replay. Website usage data is captured using first and third-party cookies and other tracking technologies to determine the popularity of content and online activity. We use this information for site optimisation and fraud/security purposes. For more information about how Microsoft collects and uses your data, visit the Microsoft Privacy Statement.
• Google AdSense — we display advertisements served by Google AdSense. Google uses cookies (including the DoubleClick DART cookie) to serve ads based on your prior visits to this site and other sites on the internet. You may opt out of personalised advertising by visiting Google's Ad Settings or aboutads.info. For more information on how Google collects and uses data, visit the Google Privacy Policy.

We do not collect payment information or share your personal data with third parties for their own marketing purposes.

2. How We Use Your Information
