Our Funding & Ethical Commitments

Transparency is the foundation of trust, especially regarding money and influence. This page explains exactly how Finanzapedia is funded today, our ethical guidelines, and our definitive plan for the future.

1. Our Current Funding Model: A Necessary Step

To operate—covering costs like servers, secure data feeds, and development—Finanzapedia currently generates revenue through limited, non-targeted advertising.

Our strict ethical practices regarding ads are non-negotiable:

  • No Surveillance Advertising: We do not use advertising networks from Google (Google Ads), Meta (Facebook), or other platforms that rely on tracking and profiling.

  • Contextual-Only Placement: Any ads displayed are placed based solely on the context of the page content (e.g., a financial term), not on your personal data, search history, or behavior.

  • Clear Separation: The presence of an advertisement does not constitute our endorsement of the product, service, or company.

We acknowledge that even non-targeted advertising is philosophically misaligned with our goal of creating a distraction-free platform for deep, critical thinking. This is a temporary model.

2. Our Goal: User-Supported Independence

Our definitive objective is to eliminate all advertising from Finanzapedia as soon as it is financially viable.

We are building towards a sustainable future modeled on the principles of projects like Wikipedia, where the platform is supported by the community it serves. This may involve a model of voluntary contributions or a freemium structure for advanced institutional tools. This transition will ensure our incentives are perfectly aligned with one thing: empowering you, not capturing your attention.

3. Our Unchanging Ethical Promises

Regardless of how we are funded, these core promises are permanent:

  • Editorial Independence: Our content, tool development, data analysis, and all editorial decisions are never influenced by advertisers, sponsors, or any future revenue source. Our north star is analytical rigor and user utility.

  • A Firewall Around Your Data: Your personal data, search history, saved calculations, and browsing behavior within Finanzapedia are never shared with advertisers or any third party for marketing purposes. This is enforced by our Privacy Policy.

  • Transparent Evolution: We will publicly communicate on this page any major change to our funding model well in advance.
