What this site does with your data

The calculators run in your browser, and the numbers you type into them are never sent to a server.

Calculators stay in your browser

Every calculator on this site runs in the browser, on the reader's own device. Lot size, pip value and margin inputs are worked out locally and are never transmitted to a server, so the figures you enter are not stored anywhere by this desk.

That includes naira amounts and position sizes. Nothing about a calculation is logged, because there is no server step for it to pass through.

Traffic counts and local storage

Traffic is counted only in aggregate, so the desk can see which pages are read without knowing who read them. No profile is built from a visit and no reading history is tied to a person.

Local storage on the reader's device holds that reader's own preferences, such as a chosen setting in a calculator. It stays on the device, and clearing browser storage removes it.

Your rights over site data and the exact way to exercise them

You have the right to ask what the site holds about you, to have it corrected or deleted, to withdraw cookie consent, and to object to analytics. Because the site holds almost nothing, most requests resolve to a short log entry or a cookie flag. To exercise any right, clear the site's cookies in your browser for the consent and preference flags, and send a request through the contact route on the site for any server log entry. You do not need to give a reason.

The practical steps are specific. For cookie data, open your browser settings, find this site's domain, and delete its cookies and local storage; that removes the preference flag and the consent choice. For server logs, send a message identifying the approximate date and time of your visit so the entry can be located and removed. The site will confirm what was found and what was deleted. Requests that concern a broker account must go to the broker, because this site has no access to it.

Some limits apply. The site cannot delete data it never held, cannot retrieve a broker's records, and cannot remove an aggregated page-view count that no longer identifies anyone. Rights over broker data, including funding through NGN bank transfer or a debit card, are handled under the broker's own policy. If a request concerns a regulated firm, the SEC Nigeria register of capital market operators is the reference point for confirming who is authorised to hold that data.

Affiliate tracking explained without the usual fog

Some links to FxPro are affiliate links, which means the site may receive a payment if you open an account through them. That payment does not change what you pay the broker and does not change the leverage, margin, or costs shown in the calculators. The tracking works by placing a referral identifier in the link you click; the broker records that identifier on its own side. This site does not receive your account details, your deposits, or your trading results from that arrangement.

The affiliate identifier is attached only when you click a broker link, not while you read or calculate. Nothing about your calculator inputs, your NGN bank transfer plans, or your card choice is passed into the referral link. The broker sees that a visit came from this site, and may set its own cookie to attribute a later sign-up. Whether that attribution succeeds depends on the broker's own cookie rules and your browser settings, which is why the site does not promise any specific tracking outcome.

Affiliate revenue is one reason the calculators are free, but it is not a reason to treat any broker as suitable for you. The site does not rank brokers by payout and does not hide the affiliate nature of a link. If you prefer not to be tracked, open the broker in a private window or type the address directly; the calculators will still work. The regulator caveat stands regardless: confirm any broker on the SEC Nigeria register of capital market operators before funding an account.

Brokers set their own cookies

When a reader follows a link to a broker, the broker sets its own cookies under its own privacy policy. That policy is the broker's responsibility, not this desk's, and it should be read before an account is opened.

A referral link may tell the broker that a visit came from this site. What the broker then does with that information is governed by the terms the reader accepts on the broker's own pages.

What the site stores and what it deliberately does not

The site stores only the minimum needed to run: the pages you request, a timestamp, and a coarse request log that helps diagnose errors. It does not store your name, email, phone number, bank details, or any trading account credentials because there is no account system on this site. Anything you type into a calculator stays in your browser and is never sent to a server. If you contact us, your message is stored only for as long as it takes to reply.

The site does not store your NGN bank transfer details, card numbers, or e-payment references because no payment is taken here. Broker funding happens on the broker's own platform, not on this site. The only persistent item placed on your device is a small local-storage flag for calculator preferences and a cookie consent choice. That flag contains no personal data and can be cleared from your browser settings at any time. Nothing is written to a server-side profile because none exists.

What is stored depends on what you do: reading a page creates a standard web-server log entry, while using a calculator creates only a temporary browser-side state. The site does not build a behavioural profile, does not sell data, and does not merge logs with any third-party identity. Server logs are kept for a short operational window and then rotated out. If you never submit a message and never accept non-essential cookies, the site holds nothing that identifies you beyond the IP address in those short-lived logs.

Retention periods and the events that actually delete data

Server logs are kept for a short operational window and are then rotated out automatically; the exact period depends on the host's log rotation setting, not on a fixed promise. Cookie flags last until they expire or until you clear them, whichever comes first. A contact message is kept only until the query is resolved. There is no long-term archive because the site does not build user profiles or store calculator inputs on a server.

Deletion is triggered by three concrete events: log rotation on the host, cookie expiry or manual clearing in your browser, and resolution of a contact query. Clearing cookies in your browser is the fastest way to remove the preference and consent flags immediately. Log entries disappear on the host's rotation schedule without any action from you. If you have asked for deletion of a specific log entry, that request is actioned once the entry is located and confirmed.

Nothing here is retained for marketing, profiling, or resale, so there is no secondary retention to explain. The numbers you type into a calculator are never stored beyond the browser tab and vanish when you close it or clear site data. Broker-side retention is set by the broker and is outside this site's control; if you fund an account through a local NGN bank transfer, that record lives with the broker and its regulators, not here.

The cookie types this site can set and what each one is for

This site can set three kinds of cookie: a strictly necessary one for basic page delivery and security, a preference cookie that remembers your calculator settings and cookie choice, and an analytics cookie that records a page view count. The necessary cookie cannot be switched off because the site will not function reliably without it. The preference and analytics cookies are optional and are only set after you accept them. No advertising cookie is set by this site itself.

Each cookie has a single job. The necessary cookie carries a session identifier so the server can return the right page and block abusive requests. The preference cookie stores a small flag such as your chosen lot size or leverage input so the calculator does not reset on every visit. The analytics cookie counts page views in aggregate and does not store the numbers you type. Brokers you later visit set their own cookies on their own domains, which this site does not control and cannot read.

The practical effect for a reader in Nigeria is that declining optional cookies leaves the calculators fully usable because they run in your browser. Accepting analytics only adds a page-view count. Your choice is stored in the preference cookie so you are not asked again until it expires or you clear it. You can withdraw consent at any time by clearing cookies for this site in your browser; the next visit will ask again. No cookie here contains your name, email, or bank details.

The third parties that can see a visit and what they receive

Three groups of third parties can be involved: the web host that serves the pages, the analytics provider that counts page views if you accept it, and the broker whose link you click. The host sees standard request data such as IP address and browser type in order to deliver the page. The analytics provider sees an aggregated page-view event, not your calculator inputs. The broker sees the referral identifier and whatever its own pages collect after you arrive.

Each third party acts on its own terms. The host processes requests to keep the site online and secure. The analytics provider is only engaged after consent and is configured to avoid storing the numbers you type into the gold calculator. The broker, FxPro, is a separate business with its own privacy policy and its own regulator obligations; this site cannot read or delete what the broker holds. For Nigerian readers, the local authority to check is the SEC Nigeria register of capital market operators.

No third party receives your name, email, or bank details from this site because the site never collects them. No data is sold to a data broker or advertising network. If you use a local NGN bank transfer or a Visa or Mastercard debit card, that happens inside the broker's platform, not here, and is governed by the broker's policy. The site's role is limited to serving pages, counting visits in aggregate, and passing a referral identifier when you choose to click.

FAQ

Common questions

What information does the site collect when I read a page?

The site collects what a normal website log holds, such as the pages you open and basic technical data from your browser, plus anything you type into the contact form. It does not ask for trading account credentials, card numbers or bank details, and you should not supply them. The aim is running the site and answering messages, not building a profile of your finances.

Do you sell my details to brokers or other third parties?

No. Details you send to the desk are used to answer you and to check the page you asked about, not sold on. The site does earn from affiliate links, which means a click can be tracked so a broker knows a reader came from here, but that tracking does not hand your contact form message to the broker. You can read a broker's own privacy terms before opening an account.

What happens to the message I send through the contact form?

It is kept so the desk can reply and, where the message reports an error, so the correction can be traced later. It is not published, and your name is not attached to a correction unless you ask for that. If you want a message removed after it is answered, say so in the same thread and the desk will act on it.

Does the site use cookies or tracking for the calculators?

The calculators run in your browser, so the figures you type, such as lot size, entry and exit prices, are not sent to the desk as a record of your trading. Site analytics may use cookies to count visits and see which pages are read. You can block or clear cookies in your browser settings; the explanatory pages will still load.

Is my data safe if I contact you from Nigeria?

Messages travel over the internet, so treat the contact form as you would any website enquiry and keep sensitive items out of it. Never send passwords, one-time codes, card numbers or identity documents. Your bank transfer and card details belong inside your broker's own platform, not in an email or form to an information desk.
