Who We Are
Our website address is: https://newseuropa.eu.

What Personal Data We Collect and Why We Collect It

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

An anonymized string (hash) generated from your email address may be sent to the Gravatar service to check if you are using it. The Gravatar service’s privacy policy is available at https://automattic.com/privacy/. Once your comment is approved, your profile picture becomes visible to the public alongside your comment.

Media
If you upload images to the website, you should avoid including embedded location data (EXIF GPS). Visitors to the website can download and extract such data from uploaded images.

Contact Forms
If you contact us via a form, we collect the data you submit, including name, email address, and any message content, to respond to your inquiry. We do not use this information for marketing purposes without your explicit consent.

Cookies
If you leave a comment on our site, you may opt-in to saving your name, email address, and website in cookies. These are for your convenience so that you don’t have to re-enter your details in the future. These cookies last for one year.

If you have an account and log in, we will set a temporary cookie to determine if your browser accepts cookies. It contains no personal data and is deleted when you close your browser.

Upon login, we set several cookies to store your login information and display preferences. Login cookies last two days; screen options cookies last one year. Selecting “Remember Me” extends your login for two weeks. Logging out removes these cookies.

When editing or publishing an article, an additional cookie is saved in your browser, which contains no personal data—only the post ID of the article edited. It expires after one day.

Embedded Content from Other Websites
Articles on this site may include embedded content (e.g. videos, images, articles, etc.). Embedded content behaves exactly as if the visitor had visited the source website.

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

Analytics
We may use analytics services to understand visitor behavior and improve our website. These tools collect anonymous data such as browser type, operating system, pages visited, and the date/time of visit.

Who We Share Your Data With
We do not sell your personal data. Data may be shared with trusted third-party services used for hosting, analytics, or spam prevention, under data processing agreements that comply with GDPR standards.

How Long We Retain Your Data
If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely, allowing us to recognize and approve follow-up comments automatically.

For registered users, we store the personal information provided in their user profile. Users can view, edit, or delete their personal data at any time (except usernames). Administrators can also access and edit this information.

Your Rights Over Your Data
If you have an account or have left comments on this site, you can request an exported file of your personal data. You may also request that we delete any personal data we hold about you, excluding data retained for legal, security, or administrative purposes.

Where We Send Your Data
Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service.
