DGM News (“DGM News,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) operates https://dgmnews24.com/ (the “Website”). This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use and share it, and the choices and rights available to you when you visit or interact with the Website.

By using the Website, you acknowledge that you have read this Privacy Policy. If you do not agree with it, please stop using the Website. Where applicable law requires consent, we will ask for it before using non-essential cookies or processing personal data for the relevant purpose.

When you visit the Website, our hosting provider, security tools, analytics services, advertising partners, and similar technologies may automatically collect information such as:

  • your Internet Protocol (IP) address;

  • interactions with advertisements or embedded content; and
  • diagnostic, performance, security, and error data.

We may combine this information with other information described in this policy when permitted by law.

How We Use Information

We may use information to:

  • operate, maintain, secure, and improve the Website;
  • provide articles, features, and requested services;
  • respond to questions, feedback, correction requests, proposals, and other messages;
  • understand readership, traffic, and Website performance;

You may unsubscribe from marketing emails at any time by using the unsubscribe link in the message or by emailing us.

Legal Bases for Processing

Where laws such as the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) or UK GDPR apply, we process personal data under one or more of these legal bases:

  • Consent: You have given permission, such as for certain cookies or email communications. You may withdraw consent at any time.
  • Contract or pre-contractual steps: Processing is needed to respond to a request or provide a service you asked for.
  • Legitimate interests: Processing is reasonably necessary to operate, secure, analyse, and improve the Website, provided those interests are not overridden by your rights.
  • Legal obligation: Processing is necessary to comply with applicable law.
  • Protection of vital interests or public interest: Processing is necessary in limited circumstances recognised by law.

For users in India, we process digital personal data for lawful purposes based on consent or another ground permitted by the Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023 and its applicable rules.

Cookies and Similar Technologies

Cookies are small files stored on your device. We and our service providers may also use pixels, tags, local storage, software development tools, and similar technologies.

The Website may use:

  • Strictly necessary cookies to provide basic functions, maintain security, balance traffic, and remember privacy choices;
  • Functional cookies to remember preferences and improve features;
  • Analytics cookies to understand visits, engagement, and performance; and
  • Advertising cookies to deliver, limit, personalise, and measure ads, where advertising is enabled.

Where required by law, non-essential cookies will not be used until you make a choice through our consent banner or cookie settings. You can withdraw or change consent through the Website’s cookie settings, if available. You can also block or delete cookies using your browser settings, although parts of the Website may then work differently.

Analytics

We may use analytics providers, including Google Analytics, to understand how visitors use the Website. These services may collect information such as IP address, device and browser details, pages visited, referring sources, and interactions. Where required, analytics will operate only after consent, and available privacy controls may be used to reduce or limit data collection.

You can learn how Google uses information from sites that use its services at Google’s Privacy & Terms page.

Advertising, Including Google AdSense

The Website may display advertisements supplied by Google AdSense and other advertising partners.

When advertising is enabled, third-party vendors, including Google, may place or read cookies on your browser or use web beacons, IP addresses, and similar technologies as a result of ad serving on the Website. Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on a user’s previous visits to this Website or other websites. Google’s use of advertising cookies enables Google and its partners to serve ads based on visits to this Website and other websites on the internet.

You can manage or opt out of personalised advertising through Google Ads Settings. You may also opt out of certain participating companies’ interest-based advertising through YourAdChoices or, for European users, Your Online Choices. Opting out of personalised advertising does not necessarily remove all ads.

Other advertising vendors or networks may use their own cookies and technologies subject to their respective privacy policies. Where required, our consent interface will identify participating advertising partners and provide additional controls.

Embedded Content, Social Media, and External Links

Articles may contain embedded videos, images, posts, maps, widgets, or other content from third-party websites. Embedded content can behave as if you visited the third-party website directly. Those providers may collect data, use cookies, apply additional tracking, or record your interaction, particularly if you are signed in to their service.

The Website may also link to external websites and social-media platforms. We do not control their privacy practices and are not responsible for their content or handling of personal information. Review the privacy policy of any third-party service you use.

How We Share Information

We may share information only as reasonably necessary with:

  • hosting, content-delivery, security, spam-prevention, email, form, analytics, advertising, and technical service providers;
  • professional advisers, such as accountants, auditors, insurers, and legal advisers;
  • public authorities, courts, regulators, or law-enforcement agencies when disclosure is legally required or reasonably necessary to protect rights, safety, and security;
  • a buyer, successor, or other relevant party in connection with a merger, sale, reorganisation, financing, or transfer of all or part of the Website or its operations; and
  • another party when you ask us to share information or give consent.

Service providers are permitted to handle information only for the services they provide to us or as otherwise allowed by their own lawful roles and applicable law.

Sale or Sharing of Personal Information

We do not sell personal information in exchange for money. Certain analytics or advertising activities involving cookies and online identifiers may, however, be treated as a “sale,” “sharing,” or targeted advertising under some privacy laws. Where those laws apply to DGM News, you may use the cookie settings available on the Website or email us to request an opt-out.

We do not knowingly sell or share the personal information of children.

International Data Transfers

DGM News and its service providers may process information in countries other than the country in which you live. Privacy laws in those countries may differ. Where required, we use recognised safeguards for international transfers, such as adequacy decisions, contractual protections, consent, or another lawful transfer mechanism.

Data Retention

We retain personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this policy, including to respond to inquiries, maintain records, secure the Website, resolve disputes, enforce agreements, and meet legal obligations.

Retention periods vary according to the type of information, the purpose for which it was collected, the sensitivity of the information, legal requirements, and technical or security needs. When information is no longer required, we will delete, anonymise, or securely isolate it as appropriate.

Data Security

We use reasonable administrative, technical, and organisational safeguards designed to protect personal information. However, no website, transmission, or storage system is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security. You should take care when sending information online.

Your Privacy Rights

Depending on where you live and subject to legal exceptions, you may have the right to:

  • ask whether we process your personal data and request access to it;
  • request correction, completion, or updating of inaccurate information;
  • request deletion or erasure;
  • withdraw consent without affecting processing already carried out lawfully;
  • object to or request restriction of certain processing;
  • request a portable copy of eligible data;
  • opt out of certain targeted advertising, sale, or sharing;
  • lodge a grievance or complaint with us or an appropriate data-protection authority;
  • nominate another person to exercise rights where applicable under Indian law; and
  • receive equal service and not be discriminated against for exercising an applicable privacy right.

To make a request, email dgmnews24@gmail.com with the subject line Privacy Request. Describe your request and the email address or other information connected with your interaction. We may need to verify your identity and authority before acting. We will respond within the period required by applicable law.

You may use an authorised agent where permitted. We may ask for evidence that the agent has authority to act for you and may verify your identity directly.

Children’s Privacy

The Website provides general-audience content and is not directed to children under 18. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided personal information to us, contact us at dgmnews24@gmail.com so we can review and delete it where appropriate.

Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy to reflect changes to the Website, our practices, service providers, or applicable law. We will post the revised policy on this page and update the “Last updated” date. If changes materially affect how we use personal information, we will provide any additional notice or request fresh consent required by law.
