Privacy Policy

Last updated: March 2025

Introduction

Political Duck ("we," "us," or "our") operates the website politicalduck.com and related services. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information when you use our platform. Please read it carefully.

Information we collect

We may collect: (1) Information you provide — such as when you create an account, subscribe, contact us (e.g. hello@politicalduck.com or report@politicalduck.com), or send feedback; (2) Limited usage data — high-level information about how you interact with the site (for example, when you trigger a fact-check request), but we do not track or store a history of the specific articles or videos you view; (3) Device and technical data — browser type, IP address, and similar identifiers.

How we use your information

We use collected information to provide, maintain, and improve our services; to process subscriptions and support; to respond to your messages and reports; to personalize your experience (e.g. theme and feed preferences); to analyze usage and fix issues; and to comply with law and protect our rights.

Local storage and cookies

We use browser local storage to remember your preferences (e.g. theme choice and whether you have already seen certain items on your device) so we can improve your experience. This information is stored locally in your browser and is not sent to our servers as a profile of what you have viewed.

We may use cookies or similar technologies for basic analytics and security. You can control cookies through your browser settings.

Sharing and third parties

We do not sell your personal information. We also do not share any personal information about our users with governments or private organizations. News and content are sourced from third-party partners; their own privacy policies apply to content on their sites.

Security

We use reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect your data. No transmission over the internet is fully secure; we cannot guarantee absolute security.

Your rights

You have the right to request a copy of your data, to request that we delete your data, and to request corrections to any of your data. These rights apply to all of our users, regardless of where you live.

To exercise these rights or ask questions about your data, contact us at hello@politicalduck.com.

Children

Our service is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe we have done so, please contact us and we will take steps to delete such information.

Changes and contact

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will post the revised policy on this page and update the "Last updated" date. Continued use of the service after changes constitutes acceptance.
