Privacy
Reading NewsMarkets needs no account. Here is everything we keep, and how to remove it.
Reading, and your choice about analytics
The first time you visit, a prompt asks about analytics cookies, and you can use the whole site whichever answer
you give. If you choose "Accept all", Google Analytics sets cookies named _ga and _ga_*
so we can count visits and see which pages are read. If you choose "Accept required", or your browser sends a
Global Privacy Control signal, Google Analytics sets no cookies, although Google may still receive a basic
page-view signal without them. Your answer is kept in your own browser and never sent to us; change it any time
with "Cookie choices" in the footer. Pages whose address carries a private link (confirming or managing email,
opening your calls on another device) load no analytics and do not show the prompt. We run no advertising
cookies at present.
Cookies and browser storage
nm-consent, browser storage: your answer to the prompt above.theme, browser storage: your light or dark setting.nm:follows, browser storage: the topics you follow (see below).nm_reader, cookie, up to two years: keeps you signed in as a forecaster after you make a call. Set only then._ga,_ga_*, Google Analytics cookies: set only if you choose "Accept all".
Topics you follow
Kept in your own browser only. We never receive the list; your browser fetches the public stories for those topics itself. Clearing your browser's site data removes it.
Your calls on markets
Making a call creates a forecaster with a generated name (like "Forecaster 48213") and a cookie that keeps you signed in on this browser. We store your calls and that name; the cookie itself is stored only as a one-way hash. No email is needed. If you ask for a link to open your calls on another device, we email it and do not keep the address. Delete your calls at any time from your calls page.
If you ask for the morning briefing or an alert, we store your address, what you asked for, and when you confirmed. Nothing is sent until you confirm from your inbox, and an address never confirmed is deleted within a week. Every email has a link to manage or delete your address and a one-click unsubscribe. Email is delivered by Resend, which processes addresses only to deliver our messages.
Abuse limits
To stop spam and automated abuse, we count requests per connection using a hash of the connection's address mixed with the date. The address itself is never stored, and counts are deleted after two days.

What we never do
We don't sell or share your information, show your email to anyone, or use it for anything you didn't ask for.
