Privacy policy

This policy explains what information is collected when you use CompareTheData.com and the choices you have. The site has no accounts, sign-up forms, or comment boxes, and it does not ask for your name, email address, or other personal details. The calculators run in your browser; the numbers you type into them are not sent to us.

Analytics

We use Google Analytics to see which pages people visit. Google uses cookies for that, and can pick up the pages you open, a rough idea of where you are, and what kind of phone or computer you’re on. You can read Google’s privacy policy or turn Analytics off.

Advertising and third-party cookies (Google AdSense)

This site may show ads served by Google AdSense. When it does:

• 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 you 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. You can also opt out of some third-party vendors’ use of cookies for personalized advertising at www.aboutads.info.

Google explains how it uses information from sites that use its services. If you opt out, you will still see ads, but they will be less tailored to you.

Cookies and your choices

We don’t set cookies ourselves; the cookies described above come from Google. You can block or delete cookies in your browser settings, and the site will keep working without them.

Links to other sites

Pages link to government agencies and other sources. Those sites have their own privacy policies, which we don’t control.

Changes

If this policy changes, the new version will be posted on this page with a new date.
