Effective date:
World News Wire (“we”, “our”) respects your privacy. This policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and the choices you have.
1. Information we collect
- Contact messages: when you write to us through the contact page, we receive your name, email address and message. We use these only to respond to your inquiry.
- Technical data: like most websites, our hosting provider may log standard technical information such as your browser type, device type and pages visited, used for security and site reliability.
- We do not require accounts, and we do not sell personal information to third parties.
2. Cookies
We use a minimal set of cookies:
- Essential cookies that remember basic preferences needed for the site to function. These do not track you across other sites.
- Advertising cookies set by our advertising partners (such as Google AdSense, when enabled) which may be used to show relevant ads and measure their performance. You can control cookies through your browser settings, and you can opt out of personalized advertising via Google’s Ads Settings.
3. Analytics
We may use privacy-respecting analytics to understand which stories readers find most useful. Where analytics tools are used, IP addresses are anonymized where possible, and data is aggregated — we do not build personal profiles of readers.
4. Advertising
World News Wire is supported by advertising. Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this and other websites. Google’s use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to you based on your visit to our site. You may opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google’s Ads Settings. For more on how Google uses data when you use partner sites, see Google’s partner-sites policy.
5. External links
Our stories link to external publications. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of those sites; we encourage you to read their policies.
6. Children
World News Wire is intended for a general audience and is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.
7. Data retention and your rights
Contact messages are kept only as long as needed to handle your inquiry. You may ask us to delete your message and details at any time by emailing newsdesk@world-news-wire.netlify.app.
8. Changes to this policy
If we change this policy, we will post the updated version on this page and revise the effective date above.
