What this desk collects, and what it does not

Platform Facts SA is an independent editorial desk. It publishes one measurement from named public sources, with the date and hour it was read. This page sets out what the site holds, what it cannot see, and how it is funded.

What the site collects and what it does not

The site holds nothing of its own. There is no account to create, no login to remember, no newsletter to join and no comment form to fill in. The publisher sets no cookie in your browser and runs no analytics of its own, so nothing about your visit is stored on your device by this desk. The pages are served by a hosting provider which, like any web host, keeps its own technical request logs. Those logs are standard operational records, and the publisher does not read personal data out of them.

Because the site takes no payment and asks for no details, a reader can check every figure without leaving a trace. That is deliberate. The measurement stands on the public record, not on a profile of who reads it. If a figure is wrong, the correction does not depend on knowing who saw the wrong version; it depends on the desk checking the source again and dating the change. The same rule applies to the outbound link: the broker's site is operated by someone else, under its own terms and its own privacy policy, and following the link leaves this site.

The publisher and what it is not

Platform Facts SA is an independent editorial desk. It is not a broker, not an exchange, not a licensed adviser, and it holds no client money. Its subject is one measurement, taken from named public sources and republished with the date and the hour it was read: rows are the FSCA's own records with its own dates and statuses. The site adds no verdict. Responsibility sits with the publication's editorial desk, which reads the sources, checks the figures, and answers corrections.

Because the desk is not a financial services provider, it cannot open an account for a reader, cannot move money, and cannot give advice. Nothing on the site is investment advice, a recommendation or an offer. The figures describe what things cost, not what a reader should do. That boundary is the reason the desk does not rate brokers, does not score platforms, and does not tell anyone where to put their money. It publishes the measurement and leaves the decision to the reader.

The affiliate relationship and how the site is paid

The site links to one broker, FxPro, through an affiliate link. If a reader follows that link and opens an account at FxPro, the desk is paid a commission. The reader pays nothing to this site and nothing extra at the broker. This arrangement is stated plainly here and on the terms page, because funding affects how a reader judges the figures. The commission does not change what the desk measures: the rows are from the FSCA's own records, and the site adds no verdict.

The affiliate relationship is the only way this desk earns. It does not sell subscriptions, does not take advertising, and does not charge for access. The link is clearly marked, and a reader can use the site without ever clicking it. When the link is used, the reader leaves this site and deals with FxPro under its own terms and its own privacy policy. That operator is responsible for its own promises, and this desk cannot answer for them.

Corrections and how to write about data questions

The editorial desk answers corrections. Writing to the address on the contact page reaches the desk, and corrections are the reason the address exists. If a figure is wrong, the desk corrects it and dates the correction. The same address is the place to ask about how a measurement was taken, which source was read, or why a date appears as it does. The desk reads the messages and acts on what it can verify against the named public sources.

There are questions the desk cannot answer. It cannot see a reader's own bank, wallet or broker account, and it will not guess at a figure that is not published. When a question is about data, say which table and which row, and state what you believe the correct figure is and where it is published. That lets the desk check the source quickly. The desk does not promise to answer every message, but it does promise to read them and to correct any error it finds.
