At PaisaCompass ([https://paisacompass.shop](https://paisacompass.shop)), we believe in being clear and transparent about how we collect and use data related to you. This Cookie Policy explains how and why we use cookies, web beacons, tracking pixels, and similar technologies on our website, as well as your rights to control our use of them.

1. What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files that are placed on your computer, smartphone, or tablet when you visit a website. They are widely used by website owners to make their websites work, or to work more efficiently, as well as to provide reporting information and personalized content.

  • First-Party Cookies: These are placed directly by PaisaCompass to enable core website functionality and site analytics.
  • Third-Party Cookies: These are placed by our trusted partners, including advertising networks (such as Google), analytics providers, and financial affiliate networks.

2. Types of Cookies We Use

We categorize the cookies used on PaisaCompass into five main functional categories:

A. Essential (Strictly Necessary) Cookies

These cookies are mandatory for the website to function properly and cannot be switched off in our systems.

  • Purpose: Security management, user session maintenance, load balancing, and remembering your cookie consent choices via our cookie banner.
  • Legal Basis: Legitimate interest in providing a secure and operable platform.

B. Analytics & Performance Cookies

These cookies allow us to count visits and traffic sources so we can measure and improve the performance of our site.

  • Purpose: They help us know which financial guides are the most popular, which interactive calculators are used most, and how visitors move around the site.
  • Data Collected: Anonymized IP addresses, browser type, operating system, time spent on pages, and page interaction. We use tools like Google Analytics.

C. Advertising & Targeting Cookies

These cookies may be set through our site by authorized third-party advertising partners (such as Google AdSense and programmatic ad exchanges).

  • Purpose: They build a profile of your interests to show you relevant advertisements on PaisaCompass and other sites you visit. They do not store direct personal information but rely on uniquely identifying your browser and internet device.
  • Google Advertising Disclosures: Google uses cookies (such as the DoubleClick DART cookie) to serve ads to our users based on previous visits to [https://paisacompass.shop](https://paisacompass.shop) and other sites on the internet. Users may opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google’s Ad Settings.

D. Affiliate & Referral Cookies

PaisaCompass participates in financial affiliate networks to keep our financial educational content 100% free.

  • Purpose: When you click an “Apply Now,” “Compare Rates,” or “Check Eligibility” button leading to a partner bank, credit card issuer, or loan provider, an affiliate cookie is stored on your device.
  • Function: This cookie simply notifies the partner institution that you originated from PaisaCompass so that we may receive a referral commission if your application is successful. These cookies do not track your personal browsing history outside of the referral transaction.

E. Third-Party Media & Embedded Cookies

Some pages on our site contain embedded content (such as interactive charts, financial security badges, or YouTube video breakdowns).

  • Purpose: These third parties may set their own cookies to track engagement with their embedded tools or verify secure interactions. We do not have direct control over the information collected by these third-party cookies.
