This Privacy Policy explains how Blockchain Pulse (“we,” “us”) collects, uses, and protects information when you visit our website. We take your privacy seriously and aim to collect as little personal data as possible while running a modern publication.
Data We Collect
We collect information in a few limited ways:
- Comments: If you leave a comment, we collect the name and email address you provide along with your comment text. Your email is used to manage the comment thread and is never displayed publicly or sold.
- Contact form and email: When you contact us, we receive whatever information you include — typically your name, email address, and message — so we can respond to your inquiry.
- Analytics: We use privacy-respecting analytics to understand which articles readers find useful. This includes aggregated data such as pages visited, time on page, and general geographic region. We do not use analytics to build individual profiles.
- Technical data: Like most websites, our servers automatically log basic technical information such as IP addresses, browser type, and referring pages for security and troubleshooting. These logs are retained only as long as necessary.
Cookies
We use a small number of cookies for essential functions: remembering your theme preference (such as light or dark mode), keeping the site secure, and understanding aggregate readership. Some third-party services we use — described below — may set their own cookies. You can control or delete cookies through your browser settings; the site will continue to work if you disable non-essential cookies.
Third-Party Services and Advertising
To sustain independent publishing, we may display advertising from third-party ad networks. These providers may use cookies or similar technologies to serve ads based on your visits to this and other sites. You can learn about their practices and opt out of personalized advertising through industry opt-out pages such as those provided by the NAI or your local equivalent.
We may also embed third-party content or use external services for functions like spam protection on comments. These services operate under their own privacy policies, and we encourage you to review them.
How We Use Your Information
We use collected information only to operate and improve the site: publishing and moderating comments, responding to messages, preventing abuse, and understanding readership in aggregate. We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information to anyone, and we do not share it except as required by law or to protect the security of the site.
Your Rights
Depending on your jurisdiction, you may have the right to access, correct, or delete personal data we hold about you, to object to certain processing, or to request a copy of your data. To exercise any of these rights, contact us using the details below and we will respond within a reasonable timeframe. If you are in the EU/EEA or UK, you also have the right to lodge a complaint with your local data protection authority.
Data Security and Retention
We apply reasonable technical measures to protect your information, but no internet transmission is fully secure. We retain data only as long as needed — comments stay published until you ask us to remove them.
Children’s Privacy
Our site is intended for a general audience and not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect their data; contact us if you believe otherwise and we will delete it.
Changes and Contact
We may update this policy as our practices evolve; continued use of the site after changes constitutes acceptance. Questions about your data? Email contact@blockchainpulse.xyz.
