Privacy Policy

Effective Date: September 4, 2026

At Firedb (https://firedb.com, “the Website”, “we”, “us”, or “our”), your privacy is of utmost importance. This Privacy Policy outlines the types of information that may be gathered when you visit the Website and how that information is handled.

1. No User Accounts or Personal Data Collection

Firedb is an open-access financial publication.

We do not require user registration, sign-up, or login credentials.
We do not maintain user accounts or profiles.
We do not directly collect, store, or sell any personally identifiable information (PII) such as your real name, home address, phone number, financial account numbers, or government ID numbers.

You can freely read, browse, and explore all articles on Firedb without submitting any personal data.

2. Web Analytics (Google Analytics 4)

We utilize Google Analytics 4 (GA4) (Measurement ID: G-F1H04HMW8E) to understand aggregate, non-personal readership trends and improve the quality of our content.

What is tracked: GA4 collects pseudonymous, aggregated information such as article page views, average reading duration, device and browser type, operating system, approximate geographic location (city or country level), and referring websites (e.g., search engines or social media links).
IP Anonymization: Google Analytics 4 automatically masks and anonymizes IP addresses before storage, ensuring individual visitors cannot be personally identified by us.
Opt-Out: You can opt out of Google Analytics measurement on any website by installing the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.

We may display programmatic advertisements served through Google AdSense and other third-party advertising partners:

AdSense Cookies: Google, as a third-party vendor, uses cookies and web beacons to serve ads on Firedb based on a user’s prior visits to this website and other websites across the internet.
Personalized Advertising: Google’s use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to users based on their visit to Firedb and/or other sites on the Internet.
Opting Out of Personalized Ads:
- You may opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings.
- Alternatively, you can opt out of third-party vendor cookies for personalized advertising by visiting www.aboutads.info/choices/ or the Network Advertising Initiative Opt-Out Page.

4. Server Log Files

Like standard web servers, our hosting infrastructure may automatically log basic, non-personally identifiable technical information when you access a webpage. This may include your browser user-agent string, operating system, referring/exit pages, date/time stamps, and HTTP request headers. These logs are used strictly for security monitoring, server health diagnostics, and fraud prevention.

5. Managing Cookies in Your Browser

Most modern web browsers are configured to accept cookies by default. If you prefer, you can adjust your browser settings to reject cookies or notify you whenever a cookie is placed on your device:

Please note that disabling cookies may affect certain interactive features of third-party embeds.

6. Children’s Online Privacy Protection (COPPA)

Firedb does not knowingly collect or solicit any information from children under the age of 13. Our content is geared toward adult financial education. If you believe that a minor has provided information on our Website, please contact us immediately, and we will take swift action to remove such information.
