Cookie Policy

Effective date: July 15, 2026

Money & World does not use cookies

That is the whole policy. The rest of this page explains what that means and why, but if you read one line, read that one.

We set no cookies. We run no analytics. We embed no trackers, no advertising pixels, no social widgets, and no third-party scripts of any kind. Nothing on this site follows you anywhere, because there is nothing on this site that could.

We also do not load anything from anybody else

This is the part most sites get wrong, and it is invisible to readers, so it is worth explaining.

A page can set zero cookies and still leak your data. Every time a site loads a font, a script, an analytics tag, or an embedded video from another company's server, your browser has to ask that company for the file. That request hands them your IP address, the page you are reading, and a decent guess at who you are. No cookie required. Most sites that advertise themselves as cookie-free do this several dozen times per page.

We do not. Our fonts are on our own server. Our stylesheet is ours. There are no third-party requests on this website at all. When you read Money & World, the only company that learns you were here is Money & World.

What our server unavoidably knows

When your browser asks our host for a page, the request necessarily carries your IP address, the page you asked for, your browser type, and the time. That is not tracking. It is how the internet works, and a server cannot send you a page without knowing where to send it.

Our host keeps those connection logs briefly, for security and abuse prevention, and we do not use them to build a profile of you. Our Privacy Policy has the detail.

Why there is no cookie banner

Because we have nothing to ask you about.

Cookie banners exist because sites want to set tracking cookies and the law requires consent first. We do not want to. So there is nothing to consent to, and no banner. You are welcome.

If this ever changes

If we add analytics, we intend to use a tool that sets no cookie and collects no personal data, and we will name it here before we switch it on.

If we ever add something that does need a cookie, we will list it here by name, purpose, and lifespan, and we will ask you first where the law requires it. We will not quietly start tracking you and update this page afterwards.

We would rather tell you than be found out. That is the whole basis on which this publication asks to be trusted.

Controlling cookies generally

We set none, so there is nothing here to control. For the rest of the web, every major browser lets you block or delete them:

Chrome: Settings, then Privacy and security, then Third-party cookies
Safari: Settings, then Privacy
Firefox: Settings, then Privacy and Security
Edge: Settings, then Cookies and site permissions

Blocking all cookies everywhere will break sites that need them to sign you in. It will not break this one.
