4. Cookies and Similar Technologies

News Sora may use cookies and similar technologies.

Cookies can help websites remember preferences, understand website usage, maintain functionality and support certain advertising or analytics features.

Some cookies may be strictly necessary for the website to function. Other cookies, including certain analytics or advertising-related technologies, may require user consent depending on the technology and applicable law.

For UK users, the ICO states that non-essential cookies and similar storage/access technologies generally require appropriate consent, subject to applicable exceptions.

Where required, we aim to provide an appropriate mechanism for visitors to manage applicable cookie preferences.

5. Google AdSense and Advertising

News Sora may use Google AdSense or other third-party advertising services.

If advertising services are enabled, advertising providers may use cookies, identifiers or similar technologies to provide, measure or personalise advertising, subject to the provider’s policies and the choices available to users.

Google requires publishers using Google advertising products to comply with its Publisher Policies and related privacy requirements.

For more information about Google’s advertising practices and available controls, visitors should review Google’s own privacy and advertising information.

6. Analytics

We may use analytics tools to understand general website performance, such as:

  • Which pages receive visits
  • General traffic patterns
  • Device or browser information
  • Approximate geographic information
  • Website performance and technical issues

Only list specific analytics services here if they are actually installed on your website.

If Google Analytics is installed, for example, this section should specifically identify Google Analytics and explain the relevant data practices.

Third parties may process information according to their own privacy policies and terms.

Examples may include:

Once you leave News Sora, you should review the privacy policy of the website you visit.

9. Data Retention

We retain personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purpose for which it was collected, including where necessary to meet legal, security or record-keeping requirements.

The appropriate retention period may vary depending on the type of information and the reason it was collected.

10. Data Security

We take reasonable steps to protect information from unauthorised access, misuse, alteration or disclosure.

However, no internet transmission or electronic storage system can be guaranteed to be completely secure.

Therefore, we cannot guarantee absolute security of information transmitted to or through our website.

We do not knowingly seek to collect personal information from children unnecessarily.
