Privacy Policy
Privacy Policy Overview
Fast, direct disclosure of what we collect, how it's used, and your choices
Scope and Key Definitions
This Privacy Policy explains what CryptoDaily Chronicle collects, how it's used, and the choices you have. It applies to our website and any pages that link to this Policy. Last updated: July 21, 2026.
«CryptoDaily Chronicle,» «we,» «us,» and «our» refers to this publication and the website you are visiting. «You» refers to any visitor, subscriber, or user. This Policy covers personal information handled through the site, emails, and related features we control.
«Personal information» (or «personal data») generally means information that identifies you or can reasonably be linked to you, such as an email address, device identifiers, or an IP address. Aggregated or de-identified information is not treated as personal information when it cannot reasonably be linked to you.
We publish news, analysis, and informational content. We are not an exchange, broker, wallet provider, or custodian, and we do not ask you for seed phrases or private keys. If anyone claims otherwise while impersonating us, treat it as suspicious.
We may act as a «controller» (determining how and why data is used) for information you provide directly to us, and as a «processor» for some information handled on our behalf by service providers. Roles can vary depending on the feature and the jurisdiction.
Our site may include links to third-party websites, embeds, or widgets. Your interactions with those third parties are governed by their own privacy policies and settings, not ours. We recommend reviewing third-party policies before providing information to them.
We work to keep our disclosures aligned with major privacy regimes. For example, the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) has applied since May 25, 2018. For U.S. readers, comprehensive state privacy laws continue to evolve. California's CCPA took effect January 1, 2020, and California's CPRA amendments to the CCPA took effect January 1, 2023.
If we make material changes, we will update the «Last updated» date above. Your continued use of the site after an update means you accept the revised Policy to the extent permitted by law.
Information We Collect
What we collect, when collection happens, and the data elements involved
Common Data Elements
- Name or handle you choose to publish
- Email address for newsletters or replies
- IP address and approximate location
- Device and browser identifiers and settings
- Pages viewed, timestamps, and referring URLs
- Cookie IDs and similar tracking tokens
- Comment content and moderation signals
- Advertising and analytics event metadata
How and When Collection Happens
If you subscribe to emails, fill out a form, or contact us, we collect the information you submit (for example, your email address and message). If you provide optional details, you are choosing to share them—keep it tight and relevant.
If you comment or interact with community features, we collect the content you post plus basic technical data that helps us detect spam and enforce rules. Public posts may be visible to other readers and can be indexed by search engines.
Like most websites, our servers automatically log requests. These logs may include IP address, device and browser details, the page requested, and the time of access. We use this for security, troubleshooting, and performance monitoring.
We use cookies and similar technologies to operate the site, remember preferences, measure readership, and support advertising. Some cookies are set by us; others are set by third parties whose tools run on the site.
Advertising and measurement partners may use cookie IDs or similar identifiers to cap frequency, measure campaign performance, and infer interests across sites. Depending on your settings and region, you may be able to opt out of targeted advertising.
We may receive limited information from third-party platforms when you share our content, interact with embedded media, or arrive via social links. What those platforms share is controlled by their policies and your account settings with them.
We do not intentionally collect «sensitive» personal information such as government IDs, precise geolocation, or financial account numbers for standard readership. If you voluntarily send sensitive information to us, you do so at your own discretion.
We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. The U.S. Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA) is focused on protecting information collected from children under 13.
How We Use and Share Data
Publishing, improvement, security, communication, and advertising—all detailed here
Uses, Legal Bases, and Retention
We use data to publish and improve the product, keep the site secure, communicate with you, and fund the newsroom through ads and measurement. We do not sell access to your inbox for someone else's cold outreach.
We use information to deliver the site and its features: loading pages, remembering preferences, sending newsletters you request, and responding to inquiries. Without basic technical data, the site can't function reliably or safely.
We use analytics to understand what readers actually use, not what we assume they use—traffic trends, popular topics, and page performance. This helps us prioritize coverage and keep the experience fast on mobile and desktop.
We use data for advertising operations such as frequency limiting, reporting, and measurement. Where applicable, we will treat certain advertising cookies as optional and provide opt-out paths, even if the result is less relevant ads.
We use information to detect abuse, prevent fraud, reduce spam, and protect the integrity of our publishing systems. This includes automated signals and human review when needed for moderation or security investigations.
Where GDPR applies, we rely on legal bases such as consent (for certain optional cookies), contract/steps at your request (for sending newsletters you sign up for), legitimate interests (site security and measurement), and legal obligations (compliance). This summary is not legal advice.
We keep personal information only as long as needed for the purposes described above, then delete or de-identify it where reasonably possible. Retention periods can vary based on the data type, security needs, and legal requirements.
If we are involved in a merger, acquisition, financing, or sale of assets, information may be transferred as part of that transaction. If required, we will provide additional notice and choices during such an event.
When We May Share Information
- Service providers hosting, security, and email delivery
- Analytics and measurement partners
- Advertising networks for interest-based ads
- Content distribution and syndication tools
- Legal requests, subpoenas, and regulatory inquiries
- Business transfers like merger or asset sale
- With your consent or at your direction
- To protect rights, safety, and prevent fraud
Your Privacy Rights
You control more than you think—requests, opt-outs, and updates explained
Requests, Cookies, and Updates
Depending on where you live, you may have legal rights to access, delete, correct, or obtain a copy of your data, and to opt out of certain uses like targeted advertising.
To make a privacy request, contact us through the site's Contact page and include: (1) your request type, (2) the email you used with us (if any), and (3) enough detail to let us locate the relevant records. We may request verification to protect you.
Where applicable, you may have the right to know what categories of personal information we collected and why, the right to delete, and the right to correct inaccurate data. If we cannot fulfill a request, we will explain the reason where permitted.
Newsletter emails include an unsubscribe link. If you unsubscribe, we will stop marketing emails to that address, but we may still send essential messages such as critical service notices or confirmations of requests you initiated.
Some browsers offer «Do Not Track» signals, but there is no single universal standard for how websites must respond. We therefore treat cookie controls and opt-out requests described in this Policy as the primary mechanisms for your choices.
If you are in the EU/EEA/UK, you may also have rights to object to processing, restrict processing, and lodge a complaint with your local data protection authority. GDPR has been applicable since May 25, 2018.
We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child under 13 has provided us personal information, contact us and we will take appropriate steps to delete it.
If you have questions about this Policy, reach us via the Contact page. If you need to reference this version, use the «Last updated» date at the top (July 21, 2026) so we can align on the same text.
