Privacy Policy
Thrives (thrives.top) publishes reference material about household money. This page explains what happens to information when you read it. It is written to be read, not to be skimmed past.
Information we collect
We do not ask you to create an account, and there is no form on this site that collects personal information. The worksheets on this site run entirely in your browser: the amounts you type stay in the page and are never transmitted to us or stored on a server. If you reload the page, those numbers are gone.
If you email us at [email protected], we receive your address and whatever you write. We keep it only as long as needed to answer you, and we do not add it to a mailing list.
Cookies and similar technologies
This site sets no cookies of its own. Third parties described below may set cookies in your browser when they serve advertising or measure traffic. You can block or delete cookies in your browser settings; the guides and worksheets continue to work with cookies disabled.
Third-party advertising (Google AdSense)
We intend to display advertising served by Google and its partners. Google, as a third-party vendor, uses cookies to serve ads on this site. Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to you based on your visit to this site and other sites on the internet.
- Google uses the DoubleClick DART cookie and similar identifiers for interest-based advertising.
- You can opt out of personalised advertising in Google Ads Settings.
- You can opt out of interest-based advertising from many vendors at aboutads.info and, in Europe, at youronlinechoices.eu.
- Where required by law, a consent notice is shown before any non-essential cookie is set, and advertising cookies are not set until you agree.
Analytics
We may measure aggregate traffic (page views, referrers, approximate country) to understand which guides are useful. These measurements are reported to us in aggregate and are not used to identify individuals. Where a jurisdiction requires consent for analytics cookies, they are set only after you agree.
Third-party links
Guides link to official sources such as deposit insurers, tax authorities and standards bodies. We do not control those sites and their privacy practices are their own. Read their policies before providing information to them.
Your rights (GDPR and CCPA)
If you are in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom or Switzerland, you have the right to access, correct, delete or restrict processing of your personal data, and the right to object to processing based on legitimate interests. If you are a California resident, you have the right to know what personal information is collected, to request deletion, and to opt out of the sale or sharing of personal information. We do not sell personal information. Requests can be sent to [email protected] and we will respond within the period required by applicable law.
Children
This site is written for adults managing household finances and is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.
Changes to this policy
When this policy changes, the date at the top of the page changes with it. Material changes will be described in the revised text rather than made silently.
