This Privacy Policy describes how Daily Jharkhand (“Daily Jharkhand”, “we”, “us”, or “our”) collects, uses, stores, shares, and protects your information when you visit https://dailyjharkhand.com (the “Website”). We are committed to protecting your privacy and handling personal data in accordance with applicable Indian laws, including the Information Technology Act, 2000, the rules made thereunder, and the Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023.
By using the Website, you consent to the practices described in this Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, please discontinue use of the Website.
- Who We Are
Daily Jharkhand is a Hindi news and information website covering news from Jharkhand and beyond. For any privacy-related questions, contact us at dailyjharkhand2000@gmail.com. - Information We Collect
a) Information you provide to us
- Comments: When you leave a comment, we collect the name, email address, and website (if any) you enter, the comment itself, and your IP address and browser user-agent string (which help with spam detection).
- Direct communication: If you email or contact us, we collect your name, email address, and the contents of your message.
b) Information collected automatically
When you visit the Website, we and our hosting/security providers may automatically collect technical data such as your IP address, browser type and version, device and operating system, referring website, pages visited, and the date and time of access. This is used for security, analytics, and improving the Website.
c) Cookies and similar technologies
We use cookies and similar technologies to keep the Website functioning, remember your preferences (for example, your details when you leave a comment), and understand how the Website is used. You can control or delete cookies through your browser settings, though some features may not work properly without them.
- Gravatar
When you leave a comment, an anonymised string created from your email address (a “hash”) may be sent to the Gravatar service to check whether you have a public profile picture. The Gravatar privacy policy is available at https://automattic.com/privacy/. After your comment is approved, your profile picture (if any) is visible to the public alongside your comment. - Embedded Content from Other Websites
Articles may include embedded content (for example, videos, images, or social media posts). Embedded content from other websites behaves exactly as if you had visited that other website, and those websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with that content. - Analytics
We may use analytics tools (such as Google Analytics) to understand how visitors use the Website so we can improve it. We also use Google Search Console to monitor and improve how the Website appears in search results. These tools generally collect information such as pages viewed and approximate location in aggregated or anonymised form. We will update this policy if and when such tools are enabled. - Advertising
We do not currently display third-party advertising. If we introduce advertising in the future (for example, Google AdSense), advertising partners may use cookies and similar technologies to show relevant ads based on your visits to this and other websites. We will update this Privacy Policy at that time, and you will be able to opt out of personalised advertising via Google Ads Settings at https://www.google.com/settings/ads. - How We Use Your Information
We use the information we collect to: operate, maintain, and improve the Website; publish and display your comments; respond to your messages; monitor and analyse usage; protect the security of the Website and prevent fraud or abuse; and comply with applicable legal obligations. - How We Share Your Information
We do not sell your personal information. We may share information only: with service providers who help us operate the Website (such as hosting, security, and, in future, analytics or advertising providers) under appropriate confidentiality obligations; to comply with applicable law, legal process, or lawful requests by authorities; to protect the rights, safety, and property of Daily Jharkhand, our users, or the public; or in connection with a business transfer such as a merger or acquisition. - Data Retention
Comments and their metadata are retained indefinitely so follow-up comments can be recognised and approved automatically, unless you ask us to delete them. Other personal data is retained only as long as necessary for the purposes in this policy or as required by law. - Data Security
We take reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect your information. However, no method of transmission over the internet or electronic storage is fully secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security. - Your Rights
Subject to applicable law (including the Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023), you may have the right to access the personal data we hold about you, request correction of inaccurate data, request deletion of your data (for example, the data associated with your comments), and withdraw consent where processing is based on consent. To exercise these rights, contact us at dailyjharkhand2000@gmail.com. We may need to verify your identity first. - Children’s Privacy
The Website is intended for a general audience and is not directed at children under 18. We do not knowingly collect personal data from children. If you believe a child has provided us personal data, contact us and we will take steps to delete it. - Third-Party Links
The Website may contain links to third-party websites. We are not responsible for their privacy practices or content. Please review their privacy policies before providing any personal information. - Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The “Last updated” date shows when it was last revised. Continued use of the Website after changes constitutes acceptance of the revised policy. - Grievance Redressal & Contact
