Privacy Policy

Last updated: 24 October 2026

This Privacy Policy explains what information TimeNews (“we”, “us”) collects when you visit timenews.today, how we use it, and the choices you have.

Information we collect

• Information you give us: your name, email address, phone number and message when you use our contact form, register an account, comment, or write to us.
• Usage and device information: like most websites, our servers and our content-delivery provider (Cloudflare) automatically log technical data such as IP address, browser type, device, pages visited, referring page and the time of your visit.
• View and share counts: to show how many people read and share a story, we record views and shares together with the IP address, approximate country and browser of the visitor.
• Cookies: small files stored by your browser. We use cookies to remember preferences such as light or dark mode, keep you logged in, measure traffic and show advertising (see below).

Advertising and Google AdSense

We use Google AdSense to show advertisements. Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this website and other websites. Google’s use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to you based on your visits to our site and/or other sites on the internet.

• You can opt out of personalised advertising by visiting Google’s Ads Settings.
• You can opt out of some third-party vendors’ use of cookies for personalised advertising at www.aboutads.info.
• Learn more about how Google uses information from sites that use its services.

How we use information

• To publish and improve our news service and understand which stories readers find useful.
• To answer your messages, tips and complaints.
• To keep the website secure and prevent abuse, spam and fraud.
• To show advertising that funds our journalism.

We do not sell your personal information.

Sharing

We share information only with service providers that help us run the website (hosting, Cloudflare, Google for advertising and analytics, embedded players such as YouTube), when the law requires it, or to protect our rights and our readers’ safety. Embedded content such as YouTube videos and social media posts behaves as if you visited the other website, and those services may collect data about you under their own policies.

Retention and security

We keep personal information only as long as needed for the purposes above or as required by law. Server logs and share/view logs are kept for a limited period. We use reasonable technical measures to protect your data, but no website can guarantee complete security.

Your choices and rights

• You can block or delete cookies in your browser settings; some features may then not work.
• You can ask us to access, correct or delete personal information you have given us by writing to [email protected]. These rights include those under India’s Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023, where it applies.

Children

Our website is a general news service and is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.

Changes

We may update this policy from time to time. The date at the top shows when it last changed.
