What Data We Collect
We collect a small amount of information to run this site and to understand how people use it. Here's what that includes:
- Your name and email address, but only if you submit them through our contact form.
- Cookies and analytics data showing which pages get visited and how people move through the site.
- Your IP address, logged automatically by our web server and by our analytics provider.
We use an analytics tool — referred to here as our analytics provider — to track page views and overall traffic. We also use affiliate tracking cookies, which tell our partners when a visitor came from this site so they can credit us with the right commission.
How We Use Your Data
We keep the reasons for collecting data narrow and specific:
- To respond to messages submitted through our contact form.
- To measure site traffic and performance, so we know what's actually being read.
- To attribute affiliate link clicks, so partners can report and pay the correct commission.
Third-Party Links
This site contains affiliate links to banks, card issuers, lenders, and other financial companies. If you click one of these links and go on to open an account, apply for a card, or complete a purchase, we may earn a commission. We don't control, and aren't responsible for, the privacy practices, security, or content of any third-party site you reach through a link on this page.
Cookies
This site uses three kinds of cookies:
- Strictly necessary cookies — keep basic site functions working, such as remembering menu state as you browse.
- Analytics cookies — let our analytics provider count visits and see which content people actually use.
- Affiliate and marketing tracking cookies — set when you click a link to a partner site, so that partner can trace the referral back to us.
You can block or delete any of these cookies through your browser settings. Blocking analytics or affiliate cookies won't stop the site from working, but blocking strictly necessary cookies may cause some pages to behave incorrectly.
Data Retention
If you contact us through the form on this site, we keep your message and contact details for as long as we need them to answer your question or resolve the issue you raised. Analytics data about site visits is stored by our analytics provider under their standard retention window, which we don't control directly.
Contact for Privacy Requests
If you want to see, correct, or delete the personal data we hold about you, email us at privacy@myfinancereviews.com and we'll respond as soon as we can.
