Privacy policy

This policy explains what SymFinancing collects, what we do not collect, and how advertising and analytics partners may use cookies.

Who we are

SymFinancing (https://symfinancing.com) is an independent educational website. Contact: hello@symfinancing.com.

What we collect

Contact form

If you use the contact form, we store your name, email address, message text, the approximate time of submission, and a network address used only to limit spam (no more than three messages per hour from the same address). We do not ask for CNIC numbers, phone numbers, bank details, or loan application data.

Server and security logs

Like most websites, our hosting environment may record standard request logs (for example IP address, user agent, and requested URL) for security, abuse prevention and reliability. Those logs are not used to build marketing profiles on this site.

What we do not collect

  • CNIC or other national identity numbers
  • Bank account, IBAN, card or OTP details
  • Loan or housing application forms
  • User accounts for the public site (admin sign-in is separate and not public)

Cookies

We use a first-party preference stored in your browser (local storage key symfinance-consent-v1) to remember whether you accepted or declined personalised ads. That preference is set only after you use the cookie notice on this site. Essential site operation does not require advertising cookies.

The cookie notice offers Accept (personalised ads and optional analytics when configured) or Decline personalised ads (ads, if shown, are requested as non-personalised; analytics does not load). Visitors in the EEA, UK or Switzerland may later see a Google-certified consent platform in place of this simple notice; the same Accept / Decline meaning will apply.

Google AdSense

When a publisher ID is configured, SymFinancing may show Google AdSense advertisements in fixed placements (guides, category/guide indexes, and below tool explainers). No AdSense script or ad boxes are loaded until that ID is set. Google and its partners may use cookies (including third-party cookies) to serve ads. Personalised advertising is requested only after you Accept on the cookie notice (or an equivalent certified consent tool).

You can also manage ads through Google Ads Settings or aboutads.info/choices. Declining personalisation does not remove all ads; you may still see contextual or non-personalised ads.

Google Analytics

If a Google Analytics measurement ID is configured (NEXT_PUBLIC_GA_ID), Analytics may collect aggregated usage information (for example pages viewed, approximate location, and device type). The Analytics script loads only after you Accept on the cookie notice. If you Decline personalised ads, or have not chosen yet, Analytics is not loaded.

Google provides an Analytics opt-out browser add-on.

How long we keep contact messages

Contact messages are kept long enough to investigate and reply, then removed or anonymised when they are no longer needed for that purpose, unless a longer retention period is required for security or legal reasons.

Your choices

To ask about a contact message you sent, or to request deletion of that message where feasible, email hello@symfinancing.com. For advertising cookies controlled by Google, use the opt-out links above.

Changes

We may update this policy when our practices or legal requirements change. The updated page will show on this URL; continued use of the site after a change means you should re-read this policy.
