Privacy policy

01 Who we are

factplay.xyz ("factplay", "we", "us") publishes short-form science and technology news. This policy explains what information we collect when you visit the site or subscribe to our daily digest, how we use it, and the choices you have.

02 What we collect

• Information you give us — such as your email address when you sign up for the digest, or the details you include when you contact us.
• Usage data — basic, mostly anonymous analytics like pages viewed, approximate region, device and browser type, collected to understand what readers find useful.
• Cookies and similar tech — small files that keep the site working and help us measure traffic. See section 06.

03 How we use it

• To send you the daily digest you asked for.
• To reply to your messages and tips.
• To keep the site secure, working, and improving.
• To understand, in aggregate, which stories and channels readers value.

We do not sell your personal information.

04 Who we share it with

We share data only with service providers that help us run factplay — for example an email delivery service for the digest and an analytics provider for traffic measurement. They may only use it to provide their service to us. We may also disclose information where the law requires it.

[List your actual providers here — e.g. your email and analytics tools.]

05 How long we keep it

We keep your email for as long as you're subscribed to the digest, and remove it after you unsubscribe. Other data is kept only as long as needed for the purposes above or as the law requires.

06 Cookies

We use essential cookies to make the site work and, where applicable, analytics cookies to measure traffic. You can control or clear cookies through your browser settings. If you're in a region that requires it, we'll ask for your consent before setting non-essential cookies.

07 Your rights

Depending on where you live, you may have the right to access, correct, or delete your personal data, to object to certain processing, or to withdraw consent. You can unsubscribe from the digest at any time using the link in any email. To make any other request, email privacy@factplay.xyz.

08 Children

factplay is intended for a general audience and is not directed at children. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided us data, contact us and we'll remove it.

09 Changes & contact

We may update this policy from time to time; the "last updated" date above will always reflect the current version. Questions? Write to privacy@factplay.xyz or use our contact page.
