Privacy Policy

Last updated 30 August 2026.

The short version

There are no accounts on this site, and no analytics. We do not run Google Analytics or any equivalent, and we do not build a profile of you. Nothing you set here is uploaded — your preferences and saved articles live in your own browser and never reach us. The exceptions are listed below, in full.

What is stored in your browser

These are local storage entries, not cookies. They stay on your device, are readable only by this site, and are never transmitted to us. Clearing your browser data removes them.

• nnn:filters — your search, region, topic, time-window and sort choices, plus any sources you have hidden, regions you have pinned and keywords you follow.
• nnn:later — the headlines you save with Read Later: title, link, source and the time you saved it.
• nnn:tab — which market ticker tab you had open.
• nnn:trend, nnn:brief — whether you collapsed the Trending or Brief sections.
• nnn:nl-intent — if you enter an address in the newsletter box, it is kept only in your browser. The newsletter is not connected to a mailing provider yet, so nothing is sent anywhere.

What you send us deliberately

The contact form is the only place this site collects personal information. When you submit it we receive the name, email address, topic and message you typed, delivered to our inbox by email through Resend, our email provider. It is not written to any database and not used for marketing — we use your address to reply, and nothing else.

Third parties

Visiting a page necessarily reveals your IP address and browser details to whoever serves it. On this site that means:

• Cloudflare hosts the site and serves every page.
• Google Fonts serves the typeface, so Google receives a request from your browser on each page load.
• The market ticker refreshes its prices from our own server, which fetches them from CNBC on your behalf. Your browser does not contact CNBC directly.
• Signing in to the Portfolio area passes your request to our application backend, which does hold an account for you if you create one there.

Headlines, podcast links and book links point to other people’s websites. We do not embed them — there are no third-party players, comment widgets or social buttons on these pages — but once you follow a link you are on that site and its privacy policy applies, not ours. Book links to Amazon carry an affiliate tag, which tells Amazon the visit came from here.

Advertising

This site does not currently display advertising, and no ad network is running on it today.

We intend to serve ads through Google AdSense. Once that is enabled:

• Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this website or other websites.
• Google’s use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to you based on your visit to this and/or other sites on the Internet.
• You may opt out of personalised advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings. You can also opt out of third-party vendors’ use of cookies for personalised advertising at aboutads.info/choices.

This page will be updated on the day advertising goes live, and the date at the top will change with it.

Your choices

You can clear everything this site has put in your browser at any time through your browser’s “clear site data” setting; the pages continue to work, simply without your saved preferences. Because we hold no account for you and no analytics record, there is nothing else of yours for us to delete — apart from a message you may have sent us, which we can remove on request.

Children

This is a financial news site intended for adults. It is not directed at children under 13 and we do not knowingly collect information from them.

Questions

Ask through the contact form, or email nnnbrief@outlook.com. If this policy changes materially, the date at the top of the page changes with it.
