Privacy Policy

Last updated: October 2026

This Privacy Policy explains what information Finance Easy (“we”, “the site”) collects when you visit, and how it is used. Finance Easy is an educational website; reading our guides does not require an account, and we do not ask you to submit personal financial information.

Information we collect

  • Basic technical information. Like most websites, our hosting and analytics may automatically record standard log data such as your browser type, device type, pages visited, and approximate location derived from your IP address. This helps us understand which guides readers find useful.
  • Information you send us. If you contact us by email, we receive your email address and the contents of your message, and use them only to reply.
  • Calculator inputs. The calculators on this site (such as the 50/30/20 calculator) run entirely in your browser. The numbers you type are never sent to us or stored anywhere.

Cookies

A cookie is a small file stored in your browser. This site and the services it uses may set cookies to remember preferences, understand traffic, and — where advertising is shown — to serve and measure ads.

Advertising and Google AdSense

This site is intended to display advertising provided by Google AdSense and possibly other advertising partners. In connection with that:

  • Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on a user's prior visits to this website or other websites.
  • Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to users based on their visit to this site and/or other sites on the Internet.
  • Users may opt out of personalised advertising by visiting Google's Ads Settings. Alternatively, users can opt out of some third-party vendors' use of cookies for personalised advertising by visiting www.aboutads.info.
  • If you are in the European Economic Area, the UK, or another region with consent requirements, ads may be served in personalised or non-personalised form depending on the consent choices presented to you.

For more detail on how Google uses information from sites that use its services, see Google's page: How Google uses information from sites or apps that use our services.

How we use information

  • To operate and improve the site and its guides.
  • To understand readership in aggregate (for example, which guides are most read).
  • To respond to messages you send us.
  • To display advertising, as described above.

We do not sell your personal information.

Links to other websites

Our guides may link to external websites (for example, official credit-reporting resources). We are not responsible for the privacy practices or content of those sites, and we encourage you to read their privacy policies.

Children's privacy

Finance Easy is written for adults managing their own money. It is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect information from them.

Your choices

You can block or delete cookies in your browser settings at any time; the site will still work, though ads may become less relevant. You can also use the opt-out links in the Advertising section above.

Changes to this policy

We may update this policy from time to time. The “last updated” date at the top of this page will change when we do, and the current version will always be posted here.
