Data We Collect and Why
FX Rate Live does not require visitors to register, create accounts, or provide personal information to use our platform. We collect only the minimum data necessary to operate our service and improve the reader experience.
Data Collected Automatically
When you visit FX Rate Live, our servers and third-party analytics tools automatically collect certain technical information including your IP address, browser type, operating system, the pages you visit, and how long you spend on each page. This data is collected in anonymised or aggregated form and is used only to understand how our platform is used and to improve it.
Cookies
FX Rate Live uses cookies — small text files stored on your device — for the following purposes:
- Analytics cookies (Google Analytics): Help us understand how visitors use our site, which pages are most popular, and where visitors come from. This data is anonymised.
- Advertising cookies (Google AdSense): Allow Google to serve relevant advertisements on our pages. Google may use browsing history to personalise ads shown to you.
- Functional cookies: Small cookies that remember basic preferences to improve your browsing experience on return visits.
Data You Voluntarily Provide
If you email us at any of our contact addresses, we receive and store your email address and the content of your message. We use this only to respond to your query. We do not add you to any mailing list without your explicit consent.
Your GDPR Rights
Under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and applicable data protection laws, you have the following rights regarding your personal data. To exercise any of these rights, contact us at privacy@fxratelive.in.
Third-Party Services We Use
FX Rate Live uses a small number of trusted third-party services that may process visitor data. We have chosen these services carefully and use only those that maintain adequate data protection standards.
Google Analytics
We use Google Analytics to understand how readers use our platform. Google Analytics collects anonymised data about page visits, session duration, traffic sources, and device types. This data is processed by Google LLC under their own privacy policy. You can opt out of Google Analytics tracking by installing the Google Analytics opt-out browser add-on.
Google AdSense
FX Rate Live displays advertisements served by Google AdSense. Google may use cookies and browsing data to show you personalised advertisements based on your interests. You can manage your Google ad preferences at adssettings.google.com. Google’s use of advertising cookies is governed by their own Privacy Policy.
Fonts and External Resources
We load fonts from Google Fonts. When your browser fetches these fonts, Google may receive your IP address as part of that request. This is standard browser behaviour and the data is not used for tracking purposes by us.
Some of our third-party providers, including Google, operate servers outside the European Economic Area. Where data is transferred outside the EEA, it is protected by standard contractual clauses or adequacy decisions recognised under GDPR. Google LLC participates in the EU-US Data Privacy Framework.
How Long We Keep Your Data
We retain personal data only for as long as necessary to fulfil the purpose for which it was collected, or as required by applicable law.
- Email correspondence: We retain emails for up to 24 months, after which they are deleted unless there is an ongoing legal or contractual reason to retain them.
- Analytics data: Google Analytics data is retained for 14 months by default under our account settings.
- Advertising data: Managed by Google under their own data retention policies.
You can request deletion of any personal data we hold about you at any time by emailing privacy@fxratelive.in.
