Information We Collect
CostInflation is responsible for the processing described here. We collect information you choose to send us by email, including when you ask to receive report updates.
When you use the website, we and our service providers may process basic request, device, browser, page, referral, interaction, approximate-location, and cookie or similar identifier information.
Analytics, Advertising, And Cookies
We use Google Analytics to understand readership and improve the website. Google explains how Google Analytics collects and processes data.
We may also use other measurement and advertising services to measure site activity and advertising performance, prevent fraud, and apply eligible privacy choices.
Some analytics and advertising features may use cookies or similar technologies. Where consent is required, those features are not loaded until consent is given.
Purposes And Legal Bases
We process information to operate, secure, and improve the website; publish price indices; measure readership; support advertising; respond to messages; send requested updates; meet legal obligations; and prevent abuse. Depending on the activity and your location, we rely on consent, steps taken at your request, legal obligations, or our legitimate interests in operating, securing, and improving the website.
Sharing And Transfers
We share information only with provider categories needed for hosting, security, content delivery, measurement, advertising, privacy choices, and requested communications. Providers may process information outside your country; where required, we use applicable transfer safeguards.
Retention
We retain information only as long as needed for the purposes above, applicable legal obligations, and security or dispute handling. Provider-held information follows the applicable service settings and policies.
Your Choices And Rights
You can manage optional technologies through the consent message, the Cookie choices control in the footer, and your browser. You can also use applicable interest-based advertising controls.
Depending on your location, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, restrict, object to, or receive a copy of your information; withdraw consent; and complain to your local data-protection authority. You can stop requested email updates by replying to the message. To exercise a right or ask a privacy question, contact contact@costinflation.com.
