This Cookie Policy explains how Self Finance Hub (selffinancehub.com), operated by Matei-Adrian Liferi, uses cookies and similar technologies. It should be read together with our Privacy Policy.
What cookies are
Cookies are small text files that a website stores on your device when you visit it. They help the site work, remember your choices and, in some cases, show you relevant ads. Similar technologies, such as pixels and local storage, work in a similar way, and this policy covers them too.
Types of cookies we use
- Necessary cookies. These keep the Site working and secure, and they store your cookie choices. They don’t need your consent.
- Analytics cookies. These help us understand how visitors use the Site, such as which pages are popular. We use them only if you accept.
- Advertising cookies. Google and its partners use these to show ads, limit how often you see the same ad and, if you agree, show ads based on your interests. We use them only if you accept.
- Affiliate cookies. When you click an affiliate link, the partner may set a cookie to credit us for your visit. These are set on the partner’s site.
Some cookies are first-party, set by our own Site. Others are third-party cookies, set by providers such as Google.

How to accept, reject or change your choice
When you first visit the Site from the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom or Switzerland, a banner asks for your consent. You can accept all cookies, reject all optional cookies or choose by purpose. Rejecting is as easy as accepting, and the Site works either way.
You can change your choice at any time with the “Privacy and cookie settings” link at the bottom of every page. If you live in a U.S. state with a privacy law, you can opt out of targeted advertising with the “Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information” link.
We will ask for your consent again at least every 24 months, or sooner if we change the cookies we use.
