What this site collects, and what it does not

The Daily Gram is an independent editorial desk. This page explains what the site itself stores, what the hosting provider logs, what following an outbound link means, and how to write about data questions.

What the site itself stores

Nothing is stored in your browser by this site. The Daily Gram sets no cookie of its own, runs no analytics, and provides no accounts, no login, no newsletter, and no comment form. A reader can open every page and leave no trace with the publisher. The figures on these pages are republished from named public sources, and the desk does not need to know who is reading them.

The absence of accounts and cookies is deliberate. The desk's subject is one measurement: the association's own published rate for one gram of 999 gold, before tax. That work does not require knowing a reader's name, device, or reading history. If a reader wants to check a figure, the source is named under every table with a link, so the check can be done without telling this site anything.

What the hosting provider logs

The pages are served by a hosting provider which, like any web host, keeps its own technical request logs. Those logs exist so the provider can deliver pages, handle errors, and protect its network. They contain the technical details that any web server records, such as an IP address, a timestamp, a requested URL, and a user agent string.

The site's publisher does not read a reader's personal data out of those logs. The logs are not used to build profiles, track reading, or identify individuals. They are the provider's operational record, not the desk's editorial tool. A reader who wants to know more about what the provider logs should consult the provider's own privacy policy, because the provider is a separate operator with its own terms.

What following an outbound link means

The site links to one broker, FxPro, through an affiliate link. If a reader opens an account there, this desk is paid a commission. The reader pays nothing to this site and nothing extra at the broker. That relationship is stated plainly on the page about the publisher and on the page about terms. No other outbound link on this site carries an affiliate arrangement.

The broker's own site is operated by someone else, under its own terms and its own privacy policy. Following the link leaves this site, and from that point the broker is responsible for what it collects and how it behaves. A reader who is thinking about opening an account should read the broker's documents first, because this desk cannot answer for them.

How to write about data questions

Writing to the address on the contact page reaches the editor, Anjali Deshpande, Rate desk editor. Corrections are the reason the address exists: a figure that is wrong is corrected and the correction is dated. A reader who spots a wrong rate, a broken source link, or a missing date and hour should write with the exact page and the exact figure.

A reader who wants to ask about how a rate was taken, why a source is named, or what a published price can and cannot show should also write. The desk cannot give investment advice or recommend a purchase, but it can explain its own work. Questions about the broker's platform, account terms, or data handling should go to the broker, not to this desk.
