Privacy Policy

costofliving.is is a static information site. We collect as little personal data as possible, and we never sell it.

What we collect

By default we use privacy-respecting, aggregate analytics to understand overall traffic — for example, page views and country-level visit counts. These figures do not identify you individually.

Cookies & advertising

If and when advertising is enabled, third-party partners (such as Google) may set cookies to serve ads. In regions that require prior consent (e.g. the EU and UK), advertising and its cookies load only after you consent through our cookie banner, and you can change your choice at any time. We honor the Global Privacy Control (GPC) browser signal as an opt-out of the sale or sharing of personal information where applicable.

Your choices

You can adjust or withdraw consent via the cookie banner, use your browser's privacy controls, and send a "Do Not Sell or Share" request via GPC. We do not knowingly collect personal data from children.

Data sources

The statistics shown here come from public datasets (e.g. the World Bank, UNODC, WHO, ITU) under their own licences — see our sources and methodology.
