Who We Are

Welcome to Indian Govt News. We are committed to protecting your privacy and ensuring the security of your personal information. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and safeguard your data when you visit our website.

Comments

When visitors leave comments on our site, we collect the following data:

  • Data provided in the comments form.
  • The visitor’s IP address.
  • Browser user agent string to help detect spam.

Media

If you upload images to our website, please avoid including images with embedded location data (EXIF GPS). Visitors to our website can download and extract location data from such images.

Cookies

When you leave a comment on our site, you may choose to save your name, email address, and website in cookies. These cookies are for your convenience, eliminating the need to re-enter your details when posting additional comments. These cookies are valid for one year.

If you visit our login page, we will set a temporary cookie to determine whether your browser accepts cookies. This cookie contains no personal data and is discarded when you close your browser.

When you log in, we use several cookies to save your login information and screen display preferences. Login cookies remain active for two days, while screen options cookies last for one year. If you select “Remember Me,” your login will persist for two weeks. Logging out of your account will remove the login cookies.

If you edit or publish an article, an additional cookie will be saved in your browser. This cookie contains no personal data and only indicates the post ID of the article you edited. It expires after 1 day.

Embedded Content from Other Websites

Articles on our site may contain embedded content, such as videos, images, or articles, from other websites. Embedded content behaves similarly to visiting the external website directly.

These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with the embedded content, especially if you have an account and are logged in to that website.

Sharing Your Data

If you request a password reset, your IP address will be included in the reset email.

Data Retention

If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This helps us recognize and automatically approve follow-up comments instead of moderating them.

For users who register on our website (if any), we store the personal information provided in their user profile. All users can view, edit, or delete their personal information at any time, except for their username. Website administrators also have access to and can edit this information.

Your Rights

If you have an account on our site or have left comments, you have the right to:

  • Request an exported file of the personal data we hold about you, including any data you provided to us.
  • Request the erasure of any personal data we hold about you, except for data we are obligated to retain for administrative, legal, or security purposes.

Where We Send Your Data

Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service.
