FinCalcHub uses a small number of cookies — one for your region preference, the rest set by Google Analytics, Microsoft Clarity, and Google AdSense. Here's exactly what each one does and how to control them.
A cookie is a small text file a website asks your browser to store. It lets the site remember things between page loads — your region choice, for example — or lets a third-party service recognise that you've been to the site before.
| Cookie | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|
fc_region |
Remembers your selected region (USA, UK, or South Africa) so calculators show the right currency and tax rules. | 1 year |
This is a first-party cookie. It contains no personal information.
We use Google Analytics 4 (property G-5FSP8WRB3C) to understand which pages are read and how the site is used. Analytics cookies include:
| Cookie | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|
_ga | Distinguishes unique users. | 2 years |
_ga_* | Per-property session state. | 2 years |
_gid | Distinguishes users (24h). | 24 hours |
Data sent to Google Analytics is aggregated and anonymous. You can opt out using the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.
We use Microsoft Clarity (project wpt2jq739l) for heatmaps and anonymised session recordings — to spot UX issues like dead clicks and rage clicks. Clarity cookies include _clck, _clsk, MUID, and SM. Clarity does not capture form-input values; financial figures you type into a calculator are not recorded. See Microsoft's Clarity cookie reference for full details.
