1. Introduction

CompareRemittanceRates.com ("we", "our", or "us") is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and safeguard your information when you visit our website. We believe in transparency and want you to understand exactly how your data is handled when you use our money transfer comparison service.

2. Information We Collect

We do not require you to register or provide personal information to use our comparison tools. However, we may collect non-personal data to improve our service:

  • IP address (anonymized for analytics)
  • Browser type and version
  • Referring website and search terms
  • Pages visited and time spent on the site
  • Device type and screen resolution
  • Comparison preferences (stored locally on your device)

3. How We Use Your Information

We use collected data responsibly to enhance your experience:

  • Improve our services and website performance
  • Analyze traffic patterns and user behavior
  • Monitor and prevent security issues and fraud
  • Optimize content and features based on usage
  • Provide accurate rate comparisons from providers

5. Analytics & Processors

When you grant analytics consent, we share pseudonymised event data with the following processors. We use Google Consent Mode v2 — before consent is given, these tools receive anonymous signals only and do not set identifying cookies.

6. Third-Party Providers & Affiliate Links

Our website includes links to third-party money transfer providers. Many of these are affiliate links, meaning we may earn a commission when you sign up or transact. This does not change the rate or fee you see, and does not influence our rankings — see our Affiliate Disclosure for the full explanation. When you click through to a provider, you are subject to their privacy policy and terms. We encourage users to read the privacy policy of any external site they visit.

7. Contact & Communication

If you contact us via email at admin@compareremittancerates.com, we may retain your message and email address solely for the purpose of responding to your inquiry and improving our service. We will never share your contact information with third parties or use it for marketing purposes without your explicit consent.

8. Your Rights & Consent

By using our website, you consent to this Privacy Policy. You have the right to:

  • Access any personal data we hold about you
  • Request correction of inaccurate data
  • Request deletion of your data
  • Opt-out of analytics tracking
  • Withdraw consent at any time

9. Policy Updates

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices or legal requirements. Any changes will be posted on this page with an updated revision date. We encourage you to review this policy periodically. Continued use of our service after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
