Privacy Policy

Last Updated:

At Aleqtisady Newspaper, we respect your privacy and are committed to protecting your personal data. This policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and your rights regarding your data.

1) What Data Do We Collect? We collect two types of data: data you provide directly, and technical data collected automatically.

  • First: Data You Provide
    • Name and Email address when registering or subscribing to newsletters.
    • Account details such as username and encrypted passwords.
    • Content of comments and interactions you post.
    • Messages sent via contact forms or email.
  • Second: Technical & Statistical Data (Internal System)
    • IP address, browser type, device type, and operating system.
    • Browsing logs: pages visited, duration, and referral source.
    • This data is collected via our proprietary internal analytics system to ensure data accuracy and user privacy, minimizing reliance on external tracking for core statistics.

2) How We Use Your Data We use data to:

  • Operate the website and improve performance and user experience.
  • Manage accounts, verify identities, and moderate comments.
  • Send newsletters and notifications (if subscribed).
  • Analyze visitor behavior through aggregated statistics to improve content.
  • Protect the site against fraud, spam, and security threats.

3) Accounts and Comments

  • When creating an account, your username may be publicly visible with your comments.
  • You are responsible for the content you post. We reserve the right to remove content that violates our policies.

4) Cookies We use cookies (small text files stored on your device) to enhance site functionality:

  • Essential Cookies: For login and session security.
  • Performance Cookies: To track usage via our internal analytics.
  • Advertising Cookies (Third Party): To serve relevant ads. You can control cookies via your browser settings, though this may affect some site features (e.g., auto-login).

5) Google AdSense & Third-Party Ads We use third-party advertising companies (such as Google) to serve ads when you visit our website.

  • Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on a user's prior visits to your website or other websites.
  • Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to your users based on their visit to your sites and/or other sites on the Internet.
  • User Choice: You may opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings.

6) Data Sharing We do not sell your personal data. We may share limited data only:

  • With trusted technical service providers (hosting, security) to operate the site.
  • Aggregated (non-personal) data with advertisers for reporting.
  • When required by law.

7) Data Security We implement robust security measures (e.g., SSL/HTTPS, password encryption) to protect your data. While no online transmission is 100% secure, we continuously update our defenses.

8) Data Retention We retain account data while active. Technical logs are kept for a limited period for security and analysis, then anonymized or deleted.

9) Your Rights

  • You can edit your profile data via account settings.
  • You can request permanent account deletion by contacting us.
  • You can unsubscribe from newsletters via the link in emails.

10) External Links The site may contain links to other websites. We are not responsible for their privacy practices.
