Privacy, Newsletter and Feedback

Newsletter subscription

Subscribing is optional and requires explicit consent to receive email updates. At this stage, the email address is stored only in Finance Map’s system. It is not connected to an external mailing platform, and no messages are sent automatically.

Information stored with a subscription

We store the email address, the time of consent, the version of the consent wording, the page where the subscription was submitted, and the subscription status. Only authorized management-system operators can access this information. A subscription can be unsubscribed or deleted upon request.

Limiting automated subscriptions

To reduce spam, we temporarily use a one-way key derived from network information. A raw IP address is not stored. The key is used only to limit the rate of subscription attempts, expires after a short window, and is removed during later cleanup.

Purpose of information-page feedback

Sending feedback is optional. The rating and any comment you choose to add are used to improve the content on information pages.

Information stored with page feedback

We store the rating, the optional comment, the page the feedback concerns, and operational details needed to process it. Do not include personal details, personal financial information, or other sensitive information in a comment.

Preventing duplicate submissions

To prevent duplicate submissions and spam, a random signed operational cookie is stored in the browser for up to 90 days. A separate protection key is derived for each page and stored temporarily for up to 24 hours. The cookie is not used to create a public profile or display a visitor’s activity. A visitor may submit up to three responses for the same page within a 24-hour window.

Retention period

Raw feedback records are deleted after 12 months. Aggregated rating data that does not include the comment or a visitor identifier may be retained to review trends and improve content.

General website feedback

The general questionnaire is optional. It helps us understand how you found the website, which information you were looking for, and how clear and useful the website was. The six core answers are saved before the background questions appear. Background questions, comments, and subscription to updates are separate choices, and you may finish immediately after submitting feedback.

Information stored with general feedback

We store the answers you select, the page where the questionnaire was opened, an optional comment, the response language, and operational details needed to process the feedback. An email address provided for updates is stored separately in the newsletter list and is not linked to questionnaire answers. Do not include personal details, personal financial information, or other sensitive information in a comment.

Raw general-feedback records are deleted after 12 months. To reduce spam, temporary one-way keys and a signed operational cookie are used for up to 24 hours. A raw IP address, browser user agent, and browser fingerprint are not stored in the feedback record.
