We respect your privacy and are committed to being transparent about how we handle your data in accordance with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and the UK Data Protection Act 2018.

We do not collect any personal information unless you voluntarily provide it (for example, via our contact form or email).
When you visit the website, we may automatically collect limited technical data such as:

We may use cookies or privacy-friendly analytics solutions to measure traffic and optimize user experience. Cookies do not store personal data and can be disabled at any time in your browser settings.
Where third-party tools (such as Google Analytics or affiliate tracking scripts) are used, IP addresses are anonymized whenever possible, and only aggregated data is stored.
3. Affiliate Links and External Services
Some pages include affiliate links to external fintech providers. When you click such a link, a cookie may be set by the partner site to track referrals and commissions.
These cookies are managed entirely by the external provider and are subject to their own privacy policies. For more details, please visit our Affiliate Disclosure.
