Uprise World (“we”, “us”, “our”) publishes news, analysis and stories from around the world at upriseworld.com. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect when you read our website, sign up for our newsletter or interact with our content, how we use it, and the choices you have.
1. Information we collect
Information you give us
- Newsletter sign-ups: your email address (and name, if you choose to give it) when you subscribe to our daily email.
- Comments: the name, email address and website you enter, the content of your comment, and your IP address and browser user agent (used to help detect spam).
- Messages to us: any information you include when you email us with tips, corrections or questions.
Information collected automatically
- Technical data such as your IP address, browser type, device type, operating system and approximate location (country or city level).
- Usage data such as the pages and articles you read, how long you stay, the page that referred you, and links you click.
- Information stored in cookies and similar technologies (see section 4).
We do not knowingly collect sensitive personal data, and we do not ask you to create an account to read our articles.
2. How we use your information
- To publish and run the website and show you the articles you request.
- To send our newsletter and other emails you have asked for. Every email includes an unsubscribe link.
- To moderate comments and protect the site against spam, fraud and security threats.
- To understand which stories and sections are most read, so we can improve our coverage and the website.
- To show advertising, where advertising is shown on the site (see section 5).
- To comply with legal obligations and respond to lawful requests.
3. Legal basis (for visitors in the UK and EU)
Where the GDPR or UK GDPR applies, we rely on your consent (for example for newsletters and non-essential cookies), our legitimate interests (running, securing and improving a news website), and our legal obligations. You can withdraw consent at any time.
4. Cookies
Cookies are small files stored on your device. We use:
- Essential cookies needed for the website to work and stay secure.
- Analytics cookies that help us count visits and see how readers use the site.
- Advertising cookies, where ads are shown, which may be set by our advertising partners to show and measure ads.
You can block or delete cookies in your browser settings. Blocking some cookies may affect how parts of the website work.
5. Third-party services
We use trusted third-party services to operate the website, such as web hosting and security providers, analytics tools, email newsletter providers and, where applicable, advertising networks. These providers may process limited data on our behalf or under their own privacy policies. Our articles may also contain embedded content (for example videos or social media posts) and links to other websites. Embedded content behaves as if you visited the other website, and we are not responsible for the privacy practices of external sites.
6. Images and content
Some articles on Uprise World are written with the help of AI tools and reviewed for publication, and some featured images come from free stock photo libraries such as Pixabay. These processes do not involve collecting any personal information about our readers.
7. Sharing your information
We do not sell your personal information. We only share it with service providers who help us run the website, when required by law, or to protect the rights, safety and security of our readers, our staff and the website.
8. How long we keep your data
- Newsletter data: until you unsubscribe.
- Comments and their metadata: for as long as the comment is published.
- Analytics and security logs: for a limited period, after which they are deleted or anonymised.
9. Your rights
Depending on where you live, you may have the right to access, correct or delete the personal data we hold about you, to object to or restrict certain processing, to withdraw consent, and to request a copy of your data. To make a request, contact us using the details below. You may also complain to your local data protection authority.
10. Children
Uprise World is a general news website and is not directed at children under 13 (or under 16 where local law requires). We do not knowingly collect personal data from children. If you believe a child has given us personal information, please contact us and we will delete it.
11. Security
We use reasonable technical and organisational measures, including a website firewall and malware scanning, to protect your information. No method of transmission over the internet is completely secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security.
12. Changes to this policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The “Last updated” date at the top shows when it was last changed. Significant changes will be highlighted on the website.
