We are committed to safeguarding your personal data. As a professional news platform, we provide you with real-time news, in-depth reports and other content services. The security and privacy of your personal data are crucial to us. This Privacy Policy outlines how we collect, hold, disclose, or process your personal data when you use our website and related services. Please read the following carefully to understand our practices regarding your personal data and how we protect your rights and interests.

What Personal Data We Collect

We collect relevant personal information through our website, subscription services, comment areas and other channels. The purpose of collecting this information is to optimize our service quality, provide personalized content recommendations, and ensure the security and compliance of the service. The types of personal data we collect include:

a. Personally identifiable data (e.g., name, email address, phone number). This personal data is collected when you subscribe to our news push, register as a member, or submit a news tip. It is used to identify individual users, deliver customized news content, and respond to your needs.

b. Pseudonymous data (e.g., "visitor_12345"). This data is used to track user browsing behavior (such as viewed news categories, reading duration) without revealing your real identity, helping us optimize content layout and recommendation algorithms.

c. User-generated content-related data (e.g., comment content, news tip information). When you publish comments or provide news clues on our website, we will collect the relevant content and associated submission time, IP address and other information to ensure the authenticity and compliance of the content.

Use of Personal Data

We may use your personal data in accordance with laws and regulations to provide you with high-quality news services and improve user experience. Our purposes include, but are not limited to, the following:

a. Delivering the news content, push notifications and subscription services you have requested, and verifying your identity when you use member-only functions;

b. Analyzing user browsing habits and content preferences, providing personalized news recommendations, and optimizing the types and presentation of website content;

c. Handling your news tips, complaints and suggestions, investigating and responding to relevant issues, and protecting the legitimate rights and interests of users and the platform;

d. Ensuring the security of the website and services, preventing fraud, malicious attacks and other improper behaviors, and maintaining the normal order of the platform;

e. Complying with legal obligations, such as providing relevant information in accordance with judicial or administrative authorities' requirements.

Handling of Personal Data

Your personal data will be stored in a secure server, and only authorized personnel (such as editorial staff, technical maintenance personnel) who have signed a confidentiality agreement can access it. These personnel are required to abide by strict data security regulations and contractual obligations to ensure that your personal data is not leaked, tampered with or misused. We will regularly conduct data security training and audits to improve the level of data protection.

Disclosure of Personal Data

We strictly abide by the principle of not disclosing your personal data without authorization. Except in the following special circumstances, we will not actively send or sell your personal information to any third party:

a. With your explicit consent or authorization;

b. In accordance with the provisions of laws, regulations, judicial decisions or administrative orders, it is necessary to disclose to relevant authorities;

c. To protect the legitimate rights and interests of the platform, users or the public (such as preventing serious harm to others' rights and interests or public safety);

d. When cooperating with third-party service providers (such as cloud storage, data security companies) to provide services, we will sign a strict confidentiality agreement with them, requiring them to only use the data for the specified service purposes and not to disclose it to any other parties.

Cookies

Cookies are small text files created and stored on your device when you browse our website. Cookies help us remember your browsing preferences (such as language settings, font size), keep you in a logged-in state when using member functions, and provide accurate content recommendations based on your reading history. Most browsers automatically accept cookies by default. You can adjust the browser settings to refuse or delete cookies, but this may affect your use experience: for example, you may need to re-enter login information every time you visit, and you may not be able to receive personalized news recommendations.

Pixel Tags

A pixel tag (a 1x1 transparent pixel image) is embedded in some web pages or news content of our website. When you visit these pages or view the content, the pixel tag will be loaded. It is used to track user interaction behavior (such as whether you have opened a push email, the duration of viewing a specific news article) and cooperate with cookies to optimize our content push strategy. You can disable pixel tags by blocking third-party tracking scripts or adjusting browser security settings, but this may lead to the inaccuracy of some personalized services.

IP Address

An Internet Protocol (IP) address is a unique numerical label assigned to your device when it connects to the Internet. We collect and retain your IP address for the following purposes: a. Identifying the approximate region of your access to provide region-specific news content (such as local news); b. Preventing malicious access, brushing traffic and other behaviors that damage the platform's interests; c. Investigating and handling network security incidents. We will not use IP addresses to directly identify your personal identity, and will not disclose IP addresses to third parties without authorization.

How to Protect Your Personal Data

In addition to our data protection measures, you can also take the following steps to enhance the security of your personal data:

a. Clear your browsing history, cache and cookie files after each use of a public computer or unfamiliar device to avoid data leakage;

b. When visiting our website, please directly enter the official website address in the browser address bar to avoid accessing counterfeit websites through phishing links;

c. Do not easily disclose your personal information (such as phone number, email address) in the public comment area, and be wary of strangers asking for your personal data in the name of "news verification";

d. Ensure that your personal device has installed official anti-virus software and firewall, and regularly update the operating system and browser to fix potential security vulnerabilities;

e. Pay attention to distinguishing legitimate news push emails from phishing emails, do not click on unknown links in emails, and delete junk emails in a timely manner;

f. If you find that your personal data on our platform may have been leaked, please contact us immediately so that we can take emergency disposal measures in a timely manner.

Your Rights Regarding Personal Data

You have the right to inquire about, correct or delete your personal data stored by us in accordance with the law. If you need to exercise the above rights or have questions about this Privacy Policy, please contact us through the official contact information published on the website. We will verify your identity and respond to your request within a reasonable time limit.

Updates to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy in accordance with changes in laws and regulations, changes in service functions or changes in data processing practices. When an update occurs, we will publish the revised Privacy Policy on the prominent position of the website and remind you of the update through appropriate means (such as website announcement, push notification).
