This privacy policy explains what information Cents That Count (“we”, “this site”) collects and how it is used. We keep it in plain language on purpose.
Information we collect
Contact form. If you write to us through the contact page, we receive the name and email address you choose to provide, plus your message. This is used only to reply to you. It is never sold, shared, or added to a mailing list.
Comments. If you leave a comment, the text, your provided name, and your IP address are stored to display the comment and prevent spam.
Analytics. Like most websites, we may use analytics tools to understand which articles people read. This data is aggregated and does not personally identify you.
Cookies
This site uses cookies — small text files stored by your browser — for basic site functionality and analytics. Third-party services listed below may also set cookies.
Advertising
We may display advertising served by third parties, including Google AdSense. Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this or other websites. Google’s use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads based on your visits to this site and/or other sites on the Internet. You may opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings, or opt out of some third-party vendors’ use of cookies at www.aboutads.info.
Affiliate links
Some articles may contain affiliate links. If you buy something through such a link, we may earn a small commission at no extra cost to you. This never affects what we recommend — see the disclaimer.
Data retention & your rights
Contact messages are kept only as long as needed to handle your enquiry. You may request a copy or deletion of any personal data we hold about you by writing through the contact page.
Children
This site is not directed at children under 16 and we do not knowingly collect their data.
Changes
If this policy changes, the new version will be posted on this page with an updated date.
