Privacy Policy

Last updated: 12 October 2026

This Privacy Policy explains what information easycapitalism.com (“the site”, “I”, “me”) collects when you visit, how it is used, and what choices you have. easycapitalism is an independent site run by one person. I keep data collection to the minimum needed to run the site.

1. Information I collect

Information you give me. The site has no user accounts and does not ask you to register. If you email me, I receive your email address and whatever you write, and I use it only to reply to you. [EDIT: if you add a contact form, newsletter or comments, update this section.]

Information collected automatically. When you visit, some technical information is collected automatically, such as:

  • your IP address, browser type and device type
  • the pages you visit, the time you spend on them, and the page that referred you
  • approximate location (country or city level) derived from your IP address

This helps me understand which content is useful and keeps the site secure and working. It is collected by the analytics tool and the hosting provider described below.

Calculators and tools. Numbers you enter into calculators and tools run in your browser. They are not sent to me or stored on any server.

Your preferences. The site may save your settings, such as light or dark theme, in your browser’s local storage. This stays on your device and is not sent to me.

2. Cookies and similar technologies

Cookies are small files stored on your device. This site and its partners use them to:

  • remember your preferences
  • measure traffic through analytics
  • show and measure advertising, if ads are enabled
  • track affiliate referrals (see section 5)

You can block or delete cookies in your browser settings. Some parts of the site may not work as well if you do.

3. Analytics

I use [EDIT: your analytics tool, e.g. Cloudflare Web Analytics / Plausible / Google Analytics] to understand how many people visit and which pages they read. [EDIT: if you use a privacy-friendly tool, add: “It does not use cookies for tracking and does not build profiles of individual visitors.” If you use Google Analytics, say so here and link to https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout for the opt-out add-on.]

4. Advertising

This site may show ads served by third-party vendors, including Google AdSense.

  • Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on your previous visits to this site and other websites.
  • Google’s use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to you based on your visit to this site and/or other sites on the internet.
  • You can opt out of personalised advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings. You can also opt out of some third-party vendors’ use of cookies for personalised advertising at www.aboutads.info.
  • To learn how Google uses data from sites that use its services, see How Google uses information from sites or apps that use our services.

For visitors in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom and Switzerland, ads that use cookies or personal data are shown only if you give consent through the cookie banner. You can change your choice at any time. [EDIT: add the name of your consent tool once you set one up.]

I do not control the cookies set by advertisers and have no access to them. Advertisers have their own privacy policies.

Some links on this site are affiliate links. If you click one and make a purchase, I may earn a commission at no extra cost to you. The merchant or affiliate network may set a cookie to record that you came from this site. I don’t receive your personal or payment details from these purchases. Please read the privacy policy of the merchant you buy from. See the affiliate disclosure for more.

6. Hosting and service providers

The site is hosted by Cloudflare Pages, which processes visitor data such as IP addresses to deliver the site and keep it secure. These providers handle data under their own privacy policies, and I do not sell your personal information to anyone.

The site links to other websites. I am not responsible for their content or privacy practices, so please read their policies before sharing information with them.

8. How long I keep data

Emails you send me are kept only as long as needed to respond to you and for basic record-keeping. Analytics data is kept as long as the analytics provider retains it, and I only look at aggregated reports. You can ask me to delete any email correspondence at any time.

9. Security

I take reasonable steps to protect the site and any information it handles. No method of transmission or storage on the internet is completely secure, so I cannot guarantee absolute security.

10. Your rights

Depending on where you live, such as India (under the Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023), the EU/UK (GDPR) or some US states, you may have the right to:

  • ask what personal data I hold about you
  • ask me to correct or delete it
  • withdraw consent you gave earlier
  • object to or opt out of certain processing, including personalised advertising
  • complain to your local data protection authority

To use any of these rights, email me at the address below. I will reply within 30 days.

11. Children’s privacy

This site is intended for a general audience and is not directed at children under 18. I do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has sent me personal information, contact me and I will delete it.

12. Changes to this policy

I may update this policy as the site grows, for example if I add accounts, a newsletter or new tools. The “Last updated” date at the top will always show the latest version.
