Privacy Policy

Welcome to Nandurbar News. Your privacy is deeply important to us. We want you to enjoy your daily dose of local, regional, and national news without worrying about your personal data being hidden away, misused, or quietly sold.
This Privacy Policy explains in a simple, human way exactly what information we collect, how we use it, and how we protect you while you browse our portal.
________________________________________
1. What Information Do We Collect?
We only collect basic info required to run a fast, modern digital news portal. We split this into two categories:
• Information You Give Us Voluntarily:
o Newsletter Subscriptions: If you sign up to get our news alerts via email, we save your email address.
o Comments & Forums: If you comment on an article, we collect the name you provide, your email address, and the text of your comment.
o Job Seekers / Team Applications: When you apply for open technical or reporting roles through our career portals, we collect your name, resume, and contact details.
• Information Collected Automatically (Tech Stack Telemetry):
o Device & Browser Details: Our servers safely log generic data like your IP address, browser type, device type (Mobile or Desktop), and the specific news articles you read.
o Cookies and Analytics: We use minor cookies to save your user preferences (like dark mode or font size) and to understand which news stories are trending in Nandurbar.

2. How Do We Use Your Data?
We believe in strict data minimization—if we don’t need it to deliver your news, we don’t collect or touch it. Your information is exclusively used to:
• Keep www.nandurbarnews.in running smoothly, securely, and loading fast.
• Send you breaking news updates or weekly summaries if you explicitly opted-in.
• Prevent malicious spam, hacking attempts, or fake comments in our local discussion threads.
• Show you localized relevant information
________________________________________
3. Third-Party Services & Programmatic Advertising
To fund our independent local journalism, we partner with specialized third-party services that may place tracking cookies or pixels:
• Google AdSense: We show programmatic web ads. Google may use cookies to serve ads based on your previous visits to our website or other sites across the internet.
• Google Analytics: This tool helps us understand aggregate reading trends (e.g., “How many people read the Shahada or Navapur regional updates today?”) without identifying you individually.
Our Promise: We never sell, rent, or lease your specific personal profiles to third-party data brokers.
________________________________________
4. How to Manage Your Data Control Rights
You are completely in charge of your personal privacy profile on our platform:
• Cookie Preference Centre: You can easily opt out of non-essential tracking pixels or block programmatic advertising tracking via your web browser settings.
• Right to Deletion: Want your article comments or newsletter email removed forever? Simply write to us at nandurbarnews@gmail.com, and we will delete your record within 48 hours.
________________________________________
5. Special Protection for Minors
In line with global 2026 digital child safety updates, Nandurbar News does not intentionally target, collect, track, or profile personal data from children under the age of 18. If a parent or guardian discovers that their child has submitted contact data to us, let us know immediately, and it will be erased from our database.
________________________________________
6. Changes to This Policy
As data privacy laws update, we may fine-tune this document. When changes are made, we will update the “Last Updated” date at the very top of this page. We encourage you to review this clean summary occasionally to stay informed.
