Privacy Policy

Information We Collect

Firebase, Feeds, and Public Artifacts

The site uses Firebase services for hosting, Cloud Functions, storage, and publishing infrastructure. Published article data may be exported to public Storage artifacts such as article JSON files, RSS feeds, podcast feeds, and sitemap files. These artifacts are intended to contain public editorial content, not private reader data.

Analytics and Tags

The site includes Google Tag Manager. Tag Manager can load analytics, measurement, or other tags configured by the site operator. If Google Analytics or similar tools are enabled, they may collect information about your browser, device, and site interactions. You can learn more about Google Analytics privacy disclosures in Google documentation.

We do not knowingly configure the current public site to sell personal information. If advertising, remarketing, cross-context behavioral advertising, or similar tracking is added later, this policy and any required consent or opt-out controls should be updated before launch.

How We Use Information

• Operate, maintain, secure, debug, and improve the site.
• Publish and display articles, archive pages, feeds, and related public content.
• Respond to editorial questions, corrections, rights requests, and contact messages.
• Send newsletter or digest emails if you request them, and manage unsubscribe requests.
• Measure aggregate readership, search behavior, and site performance.
• Detect abuse, protect infrastructure, and enforce site terms.
• Comply with legal obligations and preserve rights where necessary.

How We Share Information

Your Choices and Rights

Depending on where you live, privacy laws may give you rights to access, correct, delete, restrict, or opt out of certain uses of personal information. You may contact us to make a request.

• Request access to personal information we may hold about you.
• Request correction or deletion of personal information, subject to lawful exceptions.
• Opt out of marketing email by using unsubscribe links or contacting us.
• Ask questions about analytics, cookies, and data practices.
• Request information about whether applicable state privacy rights apply to your relationship with the site.

We will not discriminate against you for exercising applicable privacy rights. We may need to verify your request before acting on it.

Cookies, Browser Controls, and Global Privacy Signals

You can use browser settings to block or delete cookies. Blocking cookies may affect some site features. If legally required and technically feasible, we will honor recognized opt-out preference signals, such as Global Privacy Control, for covered browser-based tracking.

Data Retention

We keep information only as long as reasonably needed for the purposes described in this policy, including site operation, security, analytics, editorial recordkeeping, legal compliance, and dispute resolution. Public editorial artifacts may remain available in feeds, archives, caches, and search indexes after publication.

Security

We use reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational safeguards for the current size and nature of the site. No website, hosting system, or internet transmission is completely secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security.

Children

The site is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child provided personal information, contact us so we can review and delete it where appropriate.

International Visitors

Daily Spiral News is operated from the United States. If you access the site from another country, your information may be processed in the United States or other places where service providers operate.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy as the site changes, including when newsletter tools, advertising, accounts, subscriptions, comments, or additional analytics are added. The updated date above will show the latest revision date.
