Privacy Policy

Who we are

Newsut is a digital news website available at https://newsut.store. For questions about personal information handled through this website, contact news@newsut.store.

Information we collect

When you send a message using our Contact Us form, we collect the name, email address, subject and message you enter. When you subscribe through our newsletter form, we collect the email address you provide. These records also include the date and time of submission.

When you submit an article comment, we collect the display name and comment text you provide, the relevant article, and the submission time. Comments are held for review; only approved names and comment text are shown publicly. Comment forms do not request email addresses.

When you browse the site, a session cookie helps operate forms and the admin area. Your device may also store your selected appearance theme and saved-story bookmarks. Our web hosting provider may record technical information such as your IP address, browser, requested pages and access times in server logs.

How we use information

We use submitted contact details and messages to read and respond to enquiries, consider corrections and story tips, and protect the website from misuse. Newsletter email addresses are saved for subscriber administration. The current website does not automatically send newsletters.

We use session and technical information to support form security, site administration, troubleshooting and general operation. We do not treat a request submitted through the website as permission to publish the sender's personal details.

Cookies and browser preferences

Newsut uses a session cookie named NEWSUTSESSID for functions such as form validation and administrator sign-in. The site may store the keys gh-theme and gh-saved in your browser's local storage to remember your appearance choice and saved articles. See our Cookie Policy for details and browser controls.

Third-party services and external links

Some page resources, including web fonts and icon stylesheets, may load from Google Fonts or a content delivery network. Those providers may receive technical connection information, such as your IP address, when your browser requests their files.

Newsut can be configured to use additional services such as Google Analytics. If analytics, advertising or embedded third-party media are enabled, those providers may collect information under their own privacy notices. Availability of these features depends on the services actually enabled on the site. External websites linked from our articles have their own privacy practices.

Sharing and storage

Contact submissions and subscriber email addresses are saved in the website's private server-side storage and are accessible to authorized site administrators. Hosting and technical service providers may process information as needed to operate the site. We may disclose information if required by applicable law or to protect the security of the service.

We do not publish contact-form messages or subscriber addresses as part of normal website operation. The hosting location and any cross-border processing depend on the providers used to run the site.

Retention and security

The current CMS does not automatically erase contact messages, newsletter sign-ups or submitted article comments after a fixed number of days. Records remain until they are reviewed and removed by the site administrator or need to be retained for an appropriate operational, security or legal reason. Hosting logs may be retained according to the hosting provider's settings.

Administrative access is restricted and website forms use security protections, but no internet service can guarantee complete security. Please avoid sending passwords, payment card details or other highly sensitive information through a general contact form.

Your choices and requests

You may ask about, correct, or request deletion of personal information you previously sent to Newsut by emailing news@newsut.store. We may ask for enough information to verify that a request relates to you. Requests will be considered in light of applicable law and any necessary recordkeeping obligations.

You can clear your saved stories, theme preference and cookies using your browser settings. You can stop providing information through the forms at any time, although we may then be unable to respond to your enquiry.

Children and updates

Newsut provides general-interest news content and does not ask children to submit personal information. If you believe a child has shared personal information through a form, please contact us.

We may update this Privacy Policy to reflect changes in site features, service providers or applicable requirements. The date above indicates when this notice was last revised.
