Privacy Policy

Last updated: 3 November 2026

FACTASH does not operate an account system, and search queries stay in your browser. Our web host may keep standard server logs (such as IP address and pages requested), and its own policy applies to those logs.

Advertising and Google AdSense cookies

FACTASH shows ads through Google AdSense. Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this website or other websites. Google's use of advertising cookies lets it and its partners serve ads to you based on your visits to this and other sites.

You can opt out of personalised advertising in Google Ad Settings. To learn how Google uses data from sites that use its services, see How Google uses information from sites or apps that use our services.

Google Analytics

We may use Google Analytics to understand how visitors use the site (for example, pages viewed and approximate location). Google Analytics uses cookies and processes data under Google's privacy policy. You can opt out with the Google Analytics opt-out browser add-on.

Amazon Associates affiliate links

FACTASH participates in the Amazon Associates Program. As an Amazon Associate, Factash earns from qualifying purchases. When you click an Amazon affiliate link, Amazon may set cookies to record the referral. Amazon handles that data under its own privacy notice. See our Affiliate Disclosure.
