This Privacy Policy outlines how we collect, use, and protect your personal information when you visit our website, subscribe to our content, or contribute to our platform.

Information We Collect

We do not collect any personal information from our visitors without their consent. 

• We do not require sign-ups or logins.

• We do not collect names, email addresses, or any other personally identifiable data.

However, if you use our newsletter or want to submit content to us or use other site features, we may collect the following types of information with your consent:

a. Personal Information

• Your name and email address (when you subscribe to newsletters or submit content or comment)

• Your professional affiliation or biography (if you’re a contributor)

b. Non-Personal Information

• IP address, browser type, device info

• Pages visited, time spent, and interaction with content (via cookies or analytics tools)

In that case, we will use it for the following purposes:

• To send you newsletters or content updates (only if you opt in)

• To respond to article submissions or queries

• To improve our website and user experience

• To analyze traffic and engagement 

Minimal Analytics (If Any)

We may employ privacy-focused analytics tools solely for the purpose of assessing aggregate site performance metrics (e.g., page views, bounce rates). These tools are designed not to track individual users or to collect any personally identifiable information.

Data Security

Because CivicWit does not actively collect personal data from visitors, the risks typically associated with storing and managing such information are significantly reduced.

Data Sharing

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

We may only share data:

• With your consent

• If required by law or legal obligation

• With service providers helping us operate the site (under confidentiality agreements)

Your Rights

If we collect personal data in the future, you will have the right to:

• Access, correct, or delete your data

• Withdraw consent at any time

• Opt out of any communication

To exercise your rights under this policy, requests can be made via civicwit@gmail.com.

Comment

When visitors leave comments on the site we collect the data shown in the comments form, and also the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to help spam detection.

Embedded content from other websites

Articles on this site may include embedded content (e.g. videos, images, articles, etc.). Embedded content from other websites behaves in the exact same way as if the visitor has visited the other website.

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

Changes to This Policy

Should we begin collecting personal data in the future, we will amend this Privacy Policy accordingly and obtain your explicit, informed consent prior to any such collection or processing.
