Privacy Policy

Last updated: 19 July, 2026

WNEWS 247 (“WNEWS 247,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) operates wnews247.com (the “Site”), an independent digital publication covering global news, business, and lifestyle. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and the choices you have.

By using the Site, you agree to the collection and use of information in accordance with this policy.

1. Information We Collect

1.1 Information You Provide

We do not currently require account registration, and the Site does not have comment or newsletter sign-up functionality. If you contact us directly (for example, by email), we will collect whatever information you choose to include in that communication, such as your name and email address.

1.2 Information Collected Automatically

Like most websites, we automatically collect certain information when you visit the Site, including:

  • IP address
  • Browser type and version
  • Device type and operating system
  • Pages visited, time spent on pages, and referring URLs
  • Approximate geographic location (derived from IP address)

This information is collected through Google Analytics. See our Cookie Policy for details on the specific cookies used.

2. How We Use Information

We use the information we collect to:

  • Understand how visitors use the Site so we can improve content and site performance
  • Monitor traffic patterns and diagnose technical issues
  • Respond to inquiries sent to us directly

3. Google Analytics

We use Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google, to help us understand Site usage. Google Analytics uses cookies and similar technologies to collect and analyze information about use of the Site. This information may be transmitted to and stored by Google on servers in the United States or other countries.

You can opt out of Google Analytics tracking by installing the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on, or by adjusting your cookie preferences as described in our Cookie Policy.

For more on how Google handles this data, see Google’s Privacy Policy at https://policies.google.com/privacy.

4. Affiliate Links, Advertising, and Sponsored Content

The Site may contain affiliate links, curated advertising placements, and sponsored or paid content.

  • Affiliate links: Some articles or pages may include links to third-party products or services. If you click one of these links and make a purchase, we may earn a commission at no additional cost to you. Affiliate partners may use their own tracking cookies to attribute purchases to the referral; we do not control these third-party cookies. See our Cookie Policy for more detail.
  • Advertising placements: The Site may display banner or display advertising from third-party partners. These partners may use cookies or similar technologies to serve relevant ads and measure performance.
  • Sponsored content: Where an article or page is paid for or sponsored by a third party, we clearly label it as such (for example, “Sponsored” or “In partnership with”), in line with standard advertising disclosure practice.

We do not share personally identifiable information with affiliate or advertising partners beyond what is necessary for standard link/ad tracking (typically anonymized or pseudonymous identifiers, not your name or contact details).

5. Sharing of Information

We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information. We may share information:

  • With service providers who help us operate the Site (such as our analytics or hosting providers), solely for that purpose
  • With affiliate and advertising partners, limited to standard tracking data described in Section 4
  • If required by law, regulation, or valid legal process
  • To protect the rights, property, or safety of WNEWS 247, our readers, or others

6. Data Retention

We retain automatically collected analytics data for as long as it remains useful for the purposes described above, subject to the retention settings of our analytics provider. Direct correspondence (such as emails) is retained as long as reasonably necessary to address the matter raised.

7. Your Rights

Depending on where you are located, you may have rights regarding your personal data, which can include the right to:

  • Request access to the personal data we hold about you
  • Request correction or deletion of your personal data
  • Object to or restrict certain processing
  • Withdraw consent where processing is based on consent (such as non-essential cookies)

To exercise any of these rights, contact us at contact@wnews247.com. Note that most data we collect through analytics, affiliate, or advertising cookies is not directly identifiable to you as an individual.

If you are located in the European Economic Area or UK, you may also have the right to lodge a complaint with your local data protection authority. If you are a California resident, you may have rights under the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA); contact us using the details above to make a request.

8. Children’s Privacy

The Site is not directed at children under 13 (or the relevant age of digital consent in your jurisdiction), and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children.

9. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices, technology, or legal requirements — including as we add specific affiliate or advertising partners. The “Last updated” date at the top of this page indicates when it was last revised. Material changes will be reflected on this page.
