FinCoHolic ("we", "us") operates the website at fincoholic.com and related planner tools. This policy explains what information we collect, why we collect it, and your choices.
Information we collect
• Usage data — When you use the site, we may collect aggregate page views and session counts via our own counter and Google Analytics (if enabled). These metrics do not include your name, salary figures, or planner inputs stored in your browser.
• Planner inputs — Salary, budget, and goal numbers you enter are processed in your browser for calculations unless you explicitly save or export them. We do not sell personal financial data.
• Community sign-in — If you sign in with Google to access Community, Google provides basic profile information to our authentication provider (Auth.js) according to Google's policies and your account settings.
• Communications — If you email
fincoholicadvisor@gmail.com, we receive the content of your message and your email address to respond.
How we use information
• Operate, secure, and improve the website and calculators
• Respond to support requests
• Understand aggregate traffic (not to profile individual visitors for advertising)
Cookies and analytics
We may use cookies or local storage for theme preference, session features (such as the investor quote gate), and analytics. You can limit analytics in your browser or via Google's opt-out tools.
Advertising (Google AdSense)
When enabled, we use Google AdSense to display advertisements on our site. Google and its advertising partners may use cookies, web beacons, and similar technologies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this site or other websites. These technologies help measure ad effectiveness and show relevant ads.
You can opt out of personalised advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings at
https://www.google.com/settings/ads or the Network Advertising Initiative opt-out page at
https://optout.networkadvertising.org/. You can also manage cookies through your browser settings.
For more information on how Google uses data when you use our site or partner sites, see
https://policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites.Third parties
We link to third-party services (for example Google Analytics, Google AdSense, OAuth, and optional referral partners shown in the footer). Their privacy practices govern data they collect when you leave our site or use their sign-in.
Data retention
Aggregate traffic files may be stored on our hosting provider. Community and auth data retention follows our hosting and database configuration. Support emails are kept only as long as needed to resolve your request.
Your rights
Depending on applicable law, you may request access, correction, or deletion of personal data we hold about you by contacting
fincoholicadvisor@gmail.com.
Children
The site is not directed at children under 18. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.
