Cookies
If you leave a comment on our site you may opt-in to saving your name, email address and website in cookies. These are for your convenience so that you do not have to fill in your details again when you leave another comment. These cookies will last for one year.
If you visit our login page, we will set a temporary cookie to determine if your browser accepts cookies. This cookie contains no personal data and is discarded when you close your browser.
When you log in, we will also set up several cookies to save your login information and your screen display choices. Login cookies last for two days, and screen options cookies last for a year. If you select “Remember Me”, your login will persist for two weeks. If you log out of your account, the login cookies will be removed.
If you edit or publish an article, an additional cookie will be saved in your browser. This cookie includes no personal data and simply indicates the post ID of the article you just edited. It expires after 1 day.
Embedded content from other websites
Articles on this site may include embedded content (e.g. videos, images, articles, etc.). Embedded content from other websites behaves in the exact same way as if the visitor has visited the other website.
These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with that embedded content, including tracking your interaction with the embedded content if you have an account and are logged in to that website.
Analytics
NewsWell uses this data for several purposes: enhancing user interaction, analyzing website traffic and performance, sending email communications (only when you opt in), preventing misuse, and delivering personalized advertisements through platforms such as Google AdSense. To achieve this, we also use cookies and similar technologies. These cookies help us understand visitor behavior, remember preferences, and display relevant content and ads. You may choose to disable cookies in your browser settings, though this may limit some functionalities of the site.
NewsWell takes reasonable technical and administrative measures to safeguard your information. However, we must emphasize that no data transmission over the internet or storage system is completely secure. While we do our best to protect your data, we cannot guarantee absolute security.
Please be aware that NewsWell may include links to external websites for reference. These sites have their own privacy practices and are not governed by this policy. We recommend reviewing the privacy policies of any third-party sites before providing any personal information.
How long we retain your data
If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This is so we can recognize and approve any follow-up comments automatically instead of holding them in a moderation queue.
For users that register on our website (if any), we also store the personal information they provide in their user profile. All users can see, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (except they cannot change their username). Website administrators can also see and edit that information.
What rights you have over your data
If you have an account on this site, or have left comments, you can request to receive an exported file of the personal data we hold about you, including any data you have provided to us. You can also request that we erase any personal data we hold about you. This does not include any data we are obliged to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.
