Privacy policy

This policy describes what information is processed when you read xdaily.xyz. We collect as little as possible and never sell personal data.

Who is responsible

XDAILY (xdaily.xyz) is responsible for this website. Privacy questions go to hello@xdaily.xyz.

Information we collect ourselves

  • Anonymous page counts. A tiny script reports which page was opened on which site to our statistics service. It sets no cookie, stores no identifier and creates no profile.
  • Emails. If you write to us, we keep your message for as long as we need to answer and to document corrections.

XDAILY has no user accounts, comments or newsletter sign-up.

Advertising with Google AdSense

XDAILY shows advertising from Google AdSense. As third-party vendors, Google and its partners use cookies and similar technologies to serve ads based on a user's prior visits to this website and other websites.

  • Advertising cookies allow Google and its partners to serve ads based on your visits to this and other sites on the internet.
  • You may opt out of personalised advertising in Google's Ads Settings, and out of some other vendors' cookies at www.aboutads.info.
  • How Google uses information from sites that use its services is explained at policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites.

Where the law requires consent, for instance in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom and Switzerland, Google's consent message asks for your choice before personalised ads are shown; if you decline, non-personalised ads may appear.

Fonts and hosting

Our typefaces come from Google Fonts, so your browser connects to Google to load them. Pages are delivered through Cloudflare, which processes technical data such as IP addresses to serve the site securely and prevent abuse.

Retention

Anonymous counts are stored only as totals. Emails are deleted within two years, or earlier on request.

Your rights

Depending on your location, you may have the right to access, correct or erase personal data, to object to processing and to lodge a complaint with a data protection authority. Email hello@xdaily.xyz with the subject "Privacy request".

Children

XDAILY is written for adults and older teenagers and is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect their personal data.
