Information we collect

• Information you send us. When you use our contact form or email us, we receive your name, email address and message. Contact form messages are delivered to our email inbox; they are not stored in the website database.
• Technical information. Like most websites, our hosting provider (Hostinger) automatically records server logs such as IP address, browser type, device, pages requested, referring site and time of visit. These logs are used for security, troubleshooting and performance.
• Cookies and similar technologies. Small files placed on your device that help the site work and, where enabled, help measure traffic and show ads. See the sections below.

How we use information

• To operate, maintain and secure the website.
• To reply to your messages and correction requests.
• To understand which content is useful and improve StoryTide Daily.
• To display advertising that helps keep the site free to read.

We do not sell your personal information for money.

Advertising and Google AdSense

We use, or may use, Google AdSense to show ads on StoryTide Daily. Google and other third-party vendors use cookies to serve ads based on your previous visits to this website and other websites. Google’s use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to you based on your visits to this site and/or other sites on the internet.

• You can opt out of personalized advertising from Google by visiting My Ad Center (Google Ads Settings).
• You can opt out of some third-party vendors’ use of cookies for personalized advertising at www.aboutads.info and, in the EU and UK, www.youronlinechoices.eu.
• Learn how Google uses information from sites that use its services: How Google uses information from sites or apps that use our services.

Where the law requires it, such as for visitors in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom and Switzerland, ads are shown only after you give or refuse consent through a consent message, and you can change your choice at any time.

Analytics

We may use Google Analytics and Google Search Console to understand how visitors find and use the site, such as which pages are read most. These services use cookies or similar technologies to collect usage information in aggregate. You can opt out of Google Analytics with the Google Analytics opt-out browser add-on.

Embedded content and links

Articles may include embedded content (for example videos or posts) from other websites. Embedded content behaves as if you visited the other website, which may collect data about you. Links to other websites are provided for reference; their privacy practices are their own.

Comments

Comments are currently turned off on StoryTide Daily. If we enable them in the future, we will update this policy to explain what information is collected.

How we share information

We share information only with service providers that help us run the site, such as our hosting provider, our email provider and, where enabled, Google for advertising and analytics as described above, or when required by law. We do not sell personal information.

Your rights and choices

• Cookies: you can block or delete cookies in your browser settings. Blocking some cookies may affect how the site works.
• United States: depending on your state (for example California, Colorado, Connecticut, Virginia or Utah), you may have the right to know what personal information we hold about you, to access, correct or delete it, and to opt out of targeted advertising or the “sale” or “sharing” of personal information. You can opt out of personalized Google ads using the links above. We will not discriminate against you for exercising these rights.
• EEA, UK and Switzerland: you may have the right to access, correct, delete, restrict or object to the processing of your personal data, to data portability, and to withdraw consent at any time. You may also complain to your local data protection authority.

To make a request, email jantrahofficial@gmail.com. We may need to verify your identity before responding.

Children’s privacy

StoryTide Daily is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from them. If you believe a child has sent us personal information, contact us and we will delete it.

Data retention and security

We keep contact messages only as long as needed to respond and for reasonable record keeping, then delete them. Server logs are kept by our hosting provider for a limited period. We use reasonable safeguards, including HTTPS encryption, but no method of transmission or storage is completely secure.

International visitors

StoryTide Daily is operated from Pakistan, and our service providers may process information in other countries. By using the site, you understand that your information may be processed outside your country of residence.

Do Not Track

There is no common standard for how websites should respond to browser “Do Not Track” signals, so the site does not currently respond to them. You can still control cookies and personalized ads as described above.

Changes to this policy

We may update this policy from time to time. The date below shows when it was last changed. Significant changes will be noted on this page.
