At BingQuizzes.com (“BingQuizzes.com,” “the Website,” “we,” “us,” or “our”), accessible at https://bingquizzes.com/, the privacy of our visitors is one of our main priorities. This Privacy Policy explains, in plain language, what information we collect, how we and our partners (including Google and RevIQ) use it, who we share it with, and the choices and rights you have.
This policy applies only to information collected through this Website. It does not apply to information collected offline or through other websites, including Bing, Microsoft, or Microsoft Rewards, which have their own privacy policies.
1Information We Collect
Information you give us
You do not need to create an account or provide personal information to use our quizzes. If you contact us by email or through a contact form, we receive the information you choose to share, such as your name, email address, the content of your message, and any attachments.
Information collected automatically
When you visit the Website, our hosting provider, Google Analytics, and our advertising partners (such as RevIQ and Google) may automatically collect certain technical information, including:
- IP address and approximate location (such as country or city);
- Browser type, device type, operating system, and language settings;
- Referring and exit pages, pages viewed, time spent, scrolling, and clicks;
- Date and time of your visit;
- Cookie identifiers, advertising identifiers, and similar online identifiers;
- Information about the ads you see and interact with.
This information is standard for websites and is primarily used in aggregated form to understand traffic, keep the Website secure, and serve and measure advertising.
Information we do not collect
We do not ask for or knowingly collect sensitive information such as government ID numbers, payment card details, health information, or your Microsoft account password. Please do not send us this kind of information.
2How We Use Information
We use the information we collect to:
- Provide, operate, and maintain the Website and its quizzes;
- Understand how visitors use the Website and improve our quizzes, articles, and features;
- Display advertising, including personalized ads where you have allowed it, and measure ad performance;
- Detect, prevent, and address fraud, invalid ad traffic, spam, abuse, and security issues;
- Respond to your messages, questions, corrections, and requests;
- Comply with legal obligations and enforce our Terms of Service.
We do not send marketing emails unless you have specifically asked to receive them, and you can unsubscribe at any time.
3Legal Bases for Processing
Where laws such as the EU/UK General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) apply, we rely on the following legal bases:
- Consent — for non-essential cookies, Google Analytics, and personalized advertising where consent is required. You can withdraw consent at any time.
- Legitimate interests — to operate, secure, and improve the Website, to show non-personalized ads, and to prevent fraud, where these interests are not overridden by your rights.
- Legal obligation — where we must process information to comply with the law.
6RevIQ & Other Advertising Partners
We work with RevIQ (RevIQ LLC), an advertising platform that manages and serves ads on the Website. Through RevIQ, advertisers and ad technology companies (sometimes called “demand partners”), which may include Google, can compete in real time to show an ad on our pages. To do this, RevIQ and its partners may:
- Place and read cookies, pixels, and similar technologies in your browser;
- Receive your IP address, device and browser information, the page you are viewing, and cookie or advertising identifiers;
- Use this information to select, personalize (where permitted), cap the frequency of, and measure ads, and to detect invalid traffic and fraud.
RevIQ states that it honors region-based consent signals, including those passed through consent management platforms using the IAB Transparency & Consent Framework. For details on RevIQ’s practices and how to make a data request to them, please see the RevIQ Privacy Policy.
Other third-party ad servers or ad networks may also serve ads on the Website in the future. We have no direct access to or control over cookies set by third-party advertisers. Please review each partner’s privacy policy for details about their practices and how to opt out. You can also opt out of many participating vendors at www.aboutads.info/choices (U.S.), optout.networkadvertising.org, or www.youronlinechoices.eu (Europe).
7Google Analytics
We use Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google LLC, to understand how visitors find and use the Website — for example, which quizzes are most popular, how long visitors stay, and which pages need improvement.
- What it collects: pages visited, time on site, clicks and scrolling, referring websites, device and browser type, and general location (such as city or country), using cookies and similar identifiers.
- How it is reported: Google Analytics provides us with aggregated statistics. We do not use it to identify individual visitors, and we do not send names, email addresses, or other directly identifying information to Google Analytics.
- Consent: where consent is required, Google Analytics cookies are only used after you agree, and we may use Google Consent Mode so that Google tags respect your choice.
- More information: see How Google uses information from sites or apps that use its services.
- Opt out: install the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on, reject analytics cookies in our consent message, or block cookies in your browser.
8Consent & Your Ad Choices
- Consent message: Visitors in the EEA, the UK, and Switzerland are shown a consent message from a Google-certified consent management platform (CMP) that supports the IAB Transparency & Consent Framework. You can accept, reject, or customize non-essential cookies, and change your choice later through the “Privacy” or “Cookie Settings” link on the Website.
- Browser settings: Most browsers let you block or delete cookies. Blocking all cookies may affect how some parts of the Website work.
- Personalized ads: Opt out through Google Ads Settings or the industry opt-out tools listed in Section 6.
- Mobile devices: You can limit ad tracking or reset your advertising ID in your device’s privacy settings.
- Global Privacy Control: Where required by law, we treat a Global Privacy Control (GPC) browser signal as a request to opt out of the sale or sharing of personal information for targeted advertising.
10Data Retention & Security
We keep emails and messages you send us only as long as needed to respond and for reasonable record-keeping, and server logs only as long as needed for security and troubleshooting. Google Analytics data is kept for the retention period set in our Analytics settings, after which it is automatically deleted. Advertising cookie lifespans vary by provider and are described in each partner’s policy.
We use reasonable technical and organizational measures, including HTTPS encryption and restricted access to our accounts, to protect information. However, no method of transmission or storage over the internet is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
11International Transfers
BingQuizzes.com is operated from the Philippines, and our service providers and advertising partners (including Google and RevIQ) may process information in other countries, including the United States. Where required, these transfers are protected by appropriate safeguards, such as standard contractual clauses or adequacy frameworks.
12Rights in the EEA, UK & Switzerland
If you are located in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, or Switzerland, you have the right to:
- Access — request a copy of the personal data we hold about you;
- Rectification — ask us to correct inaccurate or incomplete data;
- Erasure — ask us to delete your personal data, under certain conditions;
- Restriction — ask us to limit how we process your data, under certain conditions;
- Objection — object to processing based on legitimate interests;
- Portability — receive your data in a portable format, under certain conditions;
- Withdraw consent — at any time, without affecting earlier processing;
- Complain — lodge a complaint with your local data protection authority.
To make a request, email us at info@bingquizzes.com. We will respond within one month. Because we usually hold very little information that identifies you, we may ask for details (such as the email address you used to contact us) to locate your data.
13U.S. State Privacy Rights
If you live in California or another U.S. state with a comprehensive privacy law, you may have the right to:
- Know the categories and specific pieces of personal information we have collected about you, and how we use and disclose it;
- Request deletion or correction of your personal information;
- Opt out of the “sale” or “sharing” of personal information, including sharing for cross-context behavioral (targeted) advertising;
- Not be discriminated against for exercising these rights.
In the past 12 months, we have collected identifiers (such as IP address and cookie IDs), internet activity information, and approximate location, and disclosed them to analytics and advertising partners as described above. The use of advertising cookies may be considered “sharing” under some state laws. You can opt out by using the tools in Section 8, enabling Global Privacy Control, or emailing us with the subject line “Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information.” We will respond within 45 days.
14Philippine Data Privacy Rights
Under the Philippine Data Privacy Act of 2012 (Republic Act No. 10173), you have the right to be informed, to access, to object, to correct, to erasure or blocking, to data portability, to damages, and to file a complaint with the National Privacy Commission. You may exercise these rights by contacting us at info@bingquizzes.com.
15Children’s Privacy
Protecting children online is important to us. The Website is intended for a general audience and is not directed at children under 13 (or the minimum age required in your country). We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13, and we do not knowingly allow personalized advertising to be shown to them.
If you believe your child has given us personal information, please contact us immediately and we will promptly delete it. We encourage parents and guardians to supervise and guide their children’s online activity.
16Advertising & Editorial Independence
Advertising helps us keep every quiz and article free. Ads are provided by third parties and are shown separately from our content. Advertisers do not choose, review, or influence our quiz questions, answers, or articles, and a displayed ad is not an endorsement by BingQuizzes.com. Our quizzes and guides are researched and written by our named authors, and we correct errors when readers point them out.
We do not offer or sell Microsoft Rewards points, and we will never ask you to click ads, reload pages, or take any action to earn rewards on this Website.
17Third-Party Websites
The Website may link to other websites, including Bing, Microsoft, and the websites of advertisers. This Privacy Policy does not apply to those websites. We encourage you to read the privacy policy of any site you visit.
18Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices, our advertising or analytics partners, or the law. When we do, we will update the “Last Updated” date at the top of this page. If the changes are significant, we may also post a notice on the Website. We encourage you to review this page periodically.
19Contact Us
If you have any questions, requests, or concerns about this Privacy Policy or your personal data, please contact us. We aim to reply within 5 business days.
