Byte of Finance (“we”, “us”) operates byteoffinance.com. This policy explains what information we collect from visitors, how we use it, and the choices you have. We are committed to collecting as little personal data as possible while running a quality news website.
Information we collect
We collect information in two ways. First, information you give us directly: if you use our contact form, we receive the name, email address and message you submit, and we use it only to respond to you. Second, information collected automatically: like most websites, we and our service providers may collect standard technical data such as IP address, browser type, device type, pages visited and time spent on the site, typically through cookies and similar technologies.
Cookies and advertising
We may use cookies to operate the site, understand how it is used, and support advertising. Third-party vendors, including Google, may use cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this or other websites. Google AdSense may use the DoubleClick cookie, which enables it and its partners to serve ads based on your visits to this site and other sites on the internet. You may opt out of personalised advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings, and you can manage or delete cookies at any time in your browser settings.
Analytics
We may use analytics services to understand aggregate readership patterns. This data is used only to improve our content and site performance.
Your rights
If you are in the European Economic Area or the United Kingdom, you have rights under data protection law, including the right to access, correct or delete personal data we hold about you, and the right to object to certain processing. California residents may have similar rights under the CCPA. To exercise any of these rights, contact us through our Contact page.
Data retention and security
Contact form messages are kept only as long as needed to handle your enquiry. We take reasonable technical measures to protect the site, but no method of transmission over the internet is completely secure.
Children
This site is not directed at children under 16, and we do not knowingly collect personal data from them.
Changes to this policy
We may update this policy from time to time. The date at the top of this page shows when it was last revised.
