We respect your privacy and are committed to protecting your personal information. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, who we may share it with, and the rights available to you when you visit our website.

We aim to comply with applicable data protection legislation, including the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR), the Data Protection Act 2018, and applicable privacy and electronic communications laws.

When you visit Fierce Alpha, certain information may be collected automatically, depending on your settings and consent choices. This may include:

  • Internet Protocol (IP) address.
  • Browser type and version.
  • Device type and operating system.
  • Pages visited and links clicked.
  • Date, time, and duration of visits.
  • Referring websites.
  • General website usage and interaction data.
  • Cookie identifiers and similar online identifiers.

We use this information to understand how visitors use our website, improve our content, maintain security, and evaluate website performance.

3. How We Use Your Information

We may use personal information to:

  • Operate and maintain Fierce Alpha.
  • Respond to enquiries and communications.
  • Improve website content, functionality, and user experience.
  • Analyse website traffic and visitor behaviour.
  • Monitor the performance of articles and other content.

  • Maintain website security and prevent spam or misuse.
  • Comply with legal obligations.
  • Protect our legitimate business interests.

We will only process personal information where an appropriate lawful basis applies.

4. Google Analytics

Fierce Alpha uses Google Analytics to measure website traffic and understand how visitors interact with our content.

Google Analytics may collect information such as:

  • Pages viewed and interactions with content.
  • Visit duration and referral sources.
  • Browser and device information.
  • General geographic information.
  • Online identifiers and cookie-related information, depending on configuration.

This information helps us understand which articles are popular, how visitors navigate the website, and where improvements may be needed.

Google Analytics may use cookies and similar technologies to collect and analyse website usage information. The data collected depends on our configuration, the features enabled, and your consent choices.

Where consent is legally required, we will seek consent before activating non-essential Google Analytics storage or tracking.

Google may process information on our behalf and may also process information in accordance with its own policies and applicable arrangements.

For more information, please see Google’s privacy policy:

https://policies.google.com/privacy

5. MonsterInsights for WordPress

Fierce Alpha uses MonsterInsights, a WordPress plugin that integrates with Google Analytics and allows us to view website analytics reports within our WordPress dashboard.

MonsterInsights helps us understand website traffic and visitor behaviour by presenting Google Analytics information in a convenient format.

Depending on the features and settings we use, MonsterInsights may also help configure or support analytics tracking and integrations.

MonsterInsights is primarily an analytics integration and reporting tool; it does not necessarily operate as a separate analytics service independent of Google Analytics.

The information collected from visitors depends on our Google Analytics configuration, the MonsterInsights features enabled, and the consent preferences applicable to each visitor.

We aim to configure these tools in accordance with applicable privacy requirements.

6. Cookies and Consent

Fierce Alpha uses a cookie and consent banner to inform visitors about cookies and similar technologies and to manage consent where required by law.

Cookies are small text files stored on your device. Similar technologies may also be used to remember preferences, measure website usage, or support affiliate tracking.

Types of Cookies We May Use

Strictly necessary cookies

These support essential website functionality, security, and the operation of your cookie consent preferences. They may be used without consent where legally permitted.

Analytics cookies

These help us understand how visitors use Fierce Alpha. Google Analytics may use cookies or similar technologies to measure website traffic and visitor interactions.

Affiliate tracking cookies

When you click an affiliate link, an affiliate network or retailer may use cookies or similar technologies to attribute a qualifying purchase to Fierce Alpha.

Advertising and marketing cookies

If advertising or marketing technologies are enabled on our website, they may use cookies or similar technologies to measure advertising performance or personalise advertising.

Managing Your Cookie Preferences

You can use the cookie consent banner on our website to manage your preferences and accept or reject non-essential cookies, where these options are provided.

Where consent is required, we aim to ensure that non-essential cookies and tracking technologies are not activated before valid consent is obtained.

You may also manage cookies through your browser settings. However, disabling certain cookies may affect website functionality.

You can withdraw consent at any time through the available consent controls, where provided. Withdrawal does not affect the lawfulness of processing carried out before consent was withdrawn.

7. Affiliate Links and Affiliate Marketing

Fierce Alpha may participate in affiliate marketing programmes.

This means that some links on our website may be affiliate links. If you click an affiliate link and make a qualifying purchase, we may receive a commission at no additional cost to you.

Affiliate networks and retailers may use cookies, tracking parameters, or similar technologies to identify referrals and attribute purchases.

When you follow an affiliate link, you leave Fierce Alpha and visit a third-party website. That website’s own privacy policy and terms will apply to your subsequent activity.

We do not control how third-party retailers or affiliate networks collect and use information.

For more information about our affiliate relationships, please read our Affiliate Disclosure.

8. How We Share Information

We do not sell your personal information.

We may share relevant information with third parties where necessary to operate our website, provide services, or comply with legal obligations. These parties may include:

  • Google, in connection with Google Analytics.
  • MonsterInsights, in connection with its WordPress plugin and related services.
  • Website hosting and technical service providers.
  • Cookie consent and security service providers.
  • Affiliate networks and retailers, where applicable.
  • Professional advisers, regulators, or public authorities where legally required.

The role of each provider depends on the services used and the relevant contractual arrangements.

Where required, we take reasonable steps to ensure appropriate safeguards are in place when third parties process personal information on our behalf.

9. International Data Transfers

Some third-party providers may process personal information outside the United Kingdom.

Where personal information is transferred internationally, we will take the steps required by applicable data protection law. These may include relying on an applicable adequacy decision, approved contractual safeguards, or another lawful transfer mechanism.

10. Data Retention

We retain personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this policy, including responding to enquiries, operating the website, maintaining security, and complying with legal obligations.

Google Analytics data retention is also affected by the retention settings configured in our analytics account.

When personal information is no longer needed, we will take reasonable steps to delete it or anonymise it where appropriate.

11. Data Security

We take reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect personal information against unauthorised access, loss, alteration, misuse, or disclosure.

However, no method of electronic transmission or storage can be guaranteed to be completely secure.
