Privacy policy

No accounts, no forms, no payments. Two analytics services, one of which records how visitors move around a page. Here is exactly what runs and how to stop it.

The short version

This site has no accounts, no forms, no payments and no login. It asks you for nothing and stores nothing you type, because there is nothing here to type into.

What it does do is measure traffic with two analytics services, and one of them records how visitors move around a page. That is the part worth reading, and it is set out in full below along with how to switch it off.

The site is run by Oliver Grant and can be reached at [email protected] for anything on this page, including a request to delete data.

What is collected, and by whom

Two third-party services run on every page of this site. Both set cookies in your browser and both receive data about your visit directly, under their own privacy policies rather than this one.

Google Analytics 4pages viewed, device, approximate location, referrer
Yandex Metricathe same, plus click maps and session replay
Session replayenabled: mouse movement, scrolling and clicks
IP addresshandled by those services, not stored by this site
Formsnone on this site
Accountsnone on this site

Yandex Metrica’s Webvisor records how a visitor moves through a page, scrolling, mouse movement and clicks, so that the pages here can be made easier to read. It is enabled on this site. It does not record anything you type, because there is nothing on this site to type into, and it does not follow you to other sites.

Neither service is used to build a profile of you by name. This site has no way to connect a visit to a person, and no interest in doing so. The numbers that matter here are which guides get read and where people stop reading.

Partner links and what happens when you click one

Links marked as partner links send you first to direct-in.com, a redirect this site controls, and then on to the platform. The redirect records that a click happened and which page it came from, so that commissions can be attributed. It does not receive your name, email or anything you do afterwards on the platform.

Once you arrive at a trading platform you are on their site, under their privacy policy and their cookies. Anything you enter there, an email address, identity documents or payment details, goes to them and never passes through this site.

How the commercial side works is set out on the disclosure page.

How to switch the measurement off

Three routes, in order of how completely they work.

Your browser. Blocking third-party cookies, or using private browsing, stops both services from recognising a returning visitor. Most browsers also carry a tracking protection setting that blocks them outright.

The services’ own opt-outs. Google publishes a browser add-on that disables Google Analytics everywhere, and Yandex Metrica publishes an opt-out of its own. Both work across every site that uses them, not only this one.

A content blocker. Any of the common ones blocks both scripts before they load. Nothing on this site breaks when they are blocked, because the guides do not depend on JavaScript to be readable.
