Privacy Policy

Last updated: August 2026

Global Financial Info ("GFI", "we", "us") is a free, ad-free news and analysis platform built for readers who want to understand the global economy. This policy explains what data we collect, how we use it, and the choices you have.

1. Overview

We collect almost no personal data. The only personal information we request is your email address — and only if you choose to subscribe to our newsletter. Everything else in the app — browsing articles, categories, and the glossary — is fully accessible without providing any personal information and without logging in.

2. What We Collect

If you subscribe to the newsletter, we collect and store:

  • Your email address — used solely to deliver the daily email brief.
  • Your topic preferences (e.g. stocks, macro, crypto) — so we can tailor the brief to your interests.
  • Your category preferences — the content categories you want included.
  • Your region preference — so we can prioritize news from the regions you care about.

A unique preferences token is generated for each subscriber, allowing you to manage your preferences or unsubscribe without needing to log in.

3. What We Do Not Collect

We do not collect or use:

  • Tracking or analytics identifiers that follow you across other websites or apps.
  • Location data or GPS coordinates.
  • Device identifiers, advertising IDs, or fingerprinting data.
  • Browsing history or behavioral profiles.
  • Contact lists, photos, or social media data.

4. No Advertising

GFI contains no advertisements and does not display third-party ad networks. We do not sell your data to anyone, and we do not share it with advertisers.

5. How We Use Your Data

Your email and preferences are used exclusively to:

  • Send you the newsletter briefs you subscribed to.
  • Identify inactive subscribers for re-engagement (based on the date of your last opened email).
  • Allow you to update or unsubscribe using your preferences token.

6. Data Storage & Security

Your email and preferences are stored securely on our platform's encrypted database. All data in transit is protected by HTTPS encryption. Access to subscriber records is restricted to authorized administrators only.

7. Your Rights & Choices

You can unsubscribe from the newsletter at any time — no login required. Every email includes an unsubscribe link, and you can update your topic, category, and region preferences from the Profile screen in the app. When you unsubscribe, your subscriber record is deactivated and no further emails are sent.

8. Children's Privacy

GFI does not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. We do not direct newsletter subscriptions to minors. If you believe a child has subscribed, please contact us and we will remove the email address promptly.

9. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Any changes will be posted on this page with an updated revision date.
