Privacy Policy

Summary

Coal Seam Research is a reading site. We do not operate accounts, do not process payments, and do not ask visitors to submit personal or financial information in order to read content.

Information we do not collect

• Identity documents, financial details or payment information.
• Trading account credentials of any kind.
• Inputs typed into our educational calculator — these are processed in your browser only and never transmitted or stored.

Information handled automatically

Like most websites, our hosting infrastructure may process standard technical information such as IP address, browser type, referring page and timestamps, for the purposes of delivering pages, maintaining security and diagnosing faults. Where aggregate analytics are used, they are used to understand which content is read, not to identify individuals.

Local storage

Your light or dark theme preference is stored in your browser's local storage on your own device. It is not transmitted to us and can be cleared at any time through your browser settings.

Cookies

We aim to keep cookie use to the minimum required for the site to function. Any non-essential measurement is aggregate in nature. You can block or delete cookies through your browser; core reading functionality will continue to work.

Third parties

Content may reference third-party organisations for educational purposes. We do not share reader information with trading platforms, and we do not sell data. Hosting and content-delivery providers process technical data strictly to serve the site.

Your rights

Depending on your jurisdiction, you may have rights to access, correct, delete or restrict the processing of personal data relating to you. Because we deliberately hold very little, most requests can be resolved by clearing your browser storage. You may contact us to exercise any applicable right.

Changes

This policy may be updated to reflect changes in practice or law. See also our Terms & Conditions.
