Only collect what the site genuinely needs.

Aggregate counts, not visitor profiles

Our own analytics record the UTC day, the page path and an aggregate view count. They do not store IP addresses, user IDs, referrers, browser fingerprints or analytics cookies. Do Not Track and Global Privacy Control signals are honoured.

Hosting and security providers may process network information and set strictly necessary security cookies to deliver and protect the site. Those controls are separate from our aggregate readership count.

Saved stories and theme stay local

The homepage can remember saved story identifiers and your colour theme in local browser storage. That information remains on the device and browser where you made the choice. Clearing site data removes it.

External players load after you ask

Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube, X, publishers and partner links are third-party services with their own privacy policies. Embedded Spotify and YouTube players are not loaded until you choose to play or load them. Following an external link takes you to that provider.

Questions and privacy requests

A verified domain mailbox is not yet connected, so we do not publish a non-working email address. Contact the official @cryptonewshq account on X for an initial privacy request, or read the separate corrections process for factual issues. Do not send sensitive identity information through social media.
