Last updated: this policy applies from the date you first visit this website and replaces any earlier version.
This Cookies Policy explains how Fewigu ("we", "us", "our") uses cookies on this website. Fewigu provides a mobile app that helps people with irregular income manage their budget. We operate from Sheffield, United Kingdom, and we handle information about website visitors in line with the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR), the Data Protection Act 2018 and the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations 2003 (PECR). PECR is the law that requires us to tell you about the cookies we use and, where a cookie is not strictly necessary, to ask for your consent before setting it.
A cookie is a small text file that a website places on your device when you visit it. Cookies allow a website to remember information about your visit, such as a choice you have made. Some cookies are needed for a site to work as intended; others are optional and are used for purposes such as measuring advertising.
We keep our use of cookies deliberately minimal. This website sets one cookie only. The table below describes it in full.
| Cookie name | Purpose | Duration | Type |
|---|---|---|---|
privacy_state |
Stores the cookie consent choice you make on this website, so that we can respect it on later visits and do not need to ask you again each time. | One year | First-party; records your preference |
We do not set any other cookies. In particular, this website does not use analytics cookies, and we do not use cookies to track how you move around the site, to profile you, or to build a record of your browsing.
Essential cookies are those that are strictly necessary to provide a service you have asked for, or to carry out a function that the site cannot work without. Under PECR, cookies that are strictly necessary do not require your prior consent. The privacy_state cookie falls into this category: its only job is to remember the choice you made about cookies, and without it we could not honour that choice.
Optional cookies are those that are not strictly necessary for the site to function. Examples include cookies used to measure the effectiveness of advertising. We only allow optional technologies to operate if you have given your consent, and you are free to refuse them without losing access to any part of this website. Refusing optional cookies will not affect your ability to read our pages or to contact us.
This website does not carry advertising and does not run advertising measurement on its general pages. Advertising measurement runs only after you have given consent, and only on the confirmation page that appears once you have completed an action with us. If you do not consent, no advertising measurement takes place at all.
Where advertising measurement is permitted by your consent, it may involve a third-party provider receiving limited information about the fact that the confirmation page was reached, so that we can understand whether our advertising is effective. We do not allow third-party advertising providers to place cookies on this website without your consent, and we do not use cookies to build advertising profiles of visitors. Third parties that receive information in this way act under their own privacy terms, and we encourage you to read those terms. If you decline consent, or withdraw it later, advertising measurement stops and no information is sent for that purpose.
You are in control of your choices, and you can change your mind at any time. Withdrawing consent is as easy as giving it. You can:

Under the UK GDPR you have rights in relation to any personal data we hold about you, including the right to be informed, to access your data, to have inaccurate data corrected, to have data erased in certain circumstances, to restrict or object to processing, and to data portability where it applies. Where processing relies on your consent, you may withdraw that consent at any time. To exercise any of these rights, contact us using the details in section 8.
If you are unhappy with how we have handled your information or this policy, please contact us first so that we can try to put things right. You also have the right to complain to the Information Commissioner's Office, the supervisory authority for data protection in the United Kingdom.
If you have any questions about this Cookies Policy, or if you wish to change or withdraw your consent or exercise any of your rights, please contact us:
We may update this Cookies Policy from time to time, for example if we change the cookies we use or if the law changes. The current version will always be available on this page. If we make a material change to the cookies we set, we will ask for your consent again where the law requires it.
