Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy explains what information Globalonomics ("we", "us", "this site") collects from visitors, how it is used, and the third-party services involved. By using this site, you agree to the practices described here.

We collect a limited amount of information automatically as you browse:

• IP address and approximate location. We use your IP address to estimate your country/region/city (via an offline lookup, not a third-party API) for basic analytics, and to avoid counting repeat page views from the same visitor more than once.
• Browser and device information. Your browser's user agent string is recorded for analytics purposes.
• Usage data. Pages visited, time spent on the site, and which posts you read, to help us understand what content is useful.

We do not require account registration to read this site, and we do not sell your data.

This site stores your theme preference (light/dark mode) in your browser's local storage — this stays on your device and is never sent to us.

Third-party services listed below may also set their own cookies in your browser, as described in each service's own privacy policy.

This site uses the following third-party services:

• Google Analytics — helps us understand how visitors use this site (pages viewed, session duration, traffic sources). See Google's Privacy Policy and opt-out options.
• Other analytics/tracking tools — we may use additional analytics or tracking scripts (such as a pixel or tag manager) to measure site performance and advertising effectiveness.

• To operate and improve this site's content and performance.
• To understand which articles are most useful to readers.
• To detect and prevent abuse (e.g. duplicate view counting).

Visitor and analytics records are retained for as long as reasonably necessary to provide the purposes above, and are not shared with third parties beyond the services listed on this page.

This site is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13.

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Changes will be posted on this page with an updated "Last updated" date.

If you have any questions about this Privacy Policy, please contact the site owner.
