Privacy Policy

How Finance Charts handles technical data, calculator inputs, cookies, advertising technologies and privacy choices.

Last reviewed: 22 September 2026

Scope

This policy explains how Finance Charts handles information when you use thefinancecharts.com. Finance Charts is designed primarily as a public financial-education website; ordinary visitors do not need to create an account to use the public calculators and guides.

Technical information used to deliver the site

The hosting, content-delivery and security infrastructure may process standard technical request information needed to deliver and protect the website. This can include IP address, browser or user-agent information, requested URLs, timestamps, referrer information and similar diagnostic data. These records can be retained in server or infrastructure logs for security, reliability and troubleshooting.

Calculator inputs and shared URLs

Finance Charts calculators are designed to perform their interactive calculations in the browser. Some tools place the selected assumptions in the page URL so a scenario can be bookmarked or shared. Because URL query strings can appear in browser history, shared links and standard server or CDN logs, do not enter confidential or personally identifying information into calculator fields.

Cookies and local storage

Essential site or WordPress functionality may use cookies where technically necessary, including for authenticated administration. If analytics, advertising or other optional technologies are introduced, this policy and the relevant consent controls should describe that use.

Google advertising and third-party technologies

Finance Charts may use Google AdSense or other advertising services to fund the site. When Google advertising is active, third-party vendors including Google may place and read cookies on a visitor’s browser, or use web beacons, IP addresses or similar identifiers as part of ad delivery, measurement, fraud prevention and, where permitted, personalization.

Google explains how it uses information from sites and apps that use its services at How Google uses information from sites or apps that use our services. Users can manage Google advertising personalization through Google Ads Settings.

Consent for advertising and analytics

Where consent is legally required, Finance Charts intends to request it before optional advertising or analytics technologies are used. For Google advertising served to users in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom or Switzerland, the advertising setup should use a Google-certified consent management platform that supports the applicable IAB Transparency and Consent Framework requirements.

External links

Finance Charts pages can link to regulators, institutions, data providers, issuers or other external websites. Those sites operate under their own privacy practices. A link is not a statement that Finance Charts controls how the external site collects or uses information.

Changes to this policy

This policy should be updated when the site’s data practices materially change, including when new analytics, advertising, account, newsletter or contact features are introduced.
