গোপনীয়তার নীতি

This policy explains what information Patrika71 (patrika71.com) collects when you use our website, how we use it and the choices you have. By using the site, you agree to the practices described here.

Information we collect

You can read Patrika71 without creating an account or telling us who you are. We collect personal information only when you choose to give it to us, for example when you subscribe to our newsletter or contact us. In those cases we keep your name, email address and the message you send.

Like most websites, our servers also record basic technical data such as your IP address, browser type, device, the pages you visit and the time of your visit. We use this data to keep the site secure and working properly.

How we use your information

We use the information we collect to send the newsletter you asked for, reply to your messages, understand which stories readers find useful and improve the website. We do not sell, rent or trade your personal information to anyone.

Cookies

Cookies are small files saved in your browser. We use them to remember your settings, such as dark mode, and to measure how the site is used. Our advertising and analytics partners may also place their own cookies. You can block or delete cookies in your browser settings, though some features may then not work as expected.

Advertising and Google AdSense

Patrika71 shows advertisements served by Google AdSense and other ad partners. Google, as a third-party vendor, uses cookies to serve ads on our site. Google’s use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to you based on your visits to this and other websites.

You can turn off personalised advertising by visiting Google’s Ads Settings. You can also opt out of some third-party vendors’ use of cookies for personalised advertising at aboutads.info. To learn more, see how Google uses data from sites that use its services.

Analytics

We may use Google Analytics to understand how readers use our site, such as which pages are visited and how long people stay. This data is collected in a form that does not identify you personally.

Comments and social media

Comments on our stories use the Facebook comments plugin, so they are covered by Facebook’s own privacy policy. Share buttons and embedded posts or videos from Facebook, YouTube and other platforms may also set cookies when you interact with them.

Links to other websites

Our stories sometimes link to other websites. We are not responsible for their content or their privacy practices, so please read their policies when you visit them.

Data security

We take reasonable technical and administrative steps to protect the information we hold. No method of sending or storing data online is completely secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security, but we work to keep your information safe.

Children’s privacy

Patrika71 is a general news website. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has given us personal information, contact us and we will delete it.

Your choices

You can unsubscribe from our newsletter at any time using the link in each email. You can also ask us to see, correct or delete the personal information we hold about you by writing to us through our contact page.

Changes to this policy

We may update this policy from time to time. The latest version will always be on this page, and we encourage you to check it now and then.
