Daily Best News Ltd. (“we”, “us”) publishes a news website and daily newspaper in Bangladesh. This policy explains what information we collect when you visit thedailybestnews.com, why we collect it, and what you can do about it.

Information we collect

• Information you give us. If you sign up for the Dawn Letter newsletter, create an account, or write to us, we keep the email address and any message you send.
• Reading information. We count how many times an article is opened so we can understand what our readers care about. This is recorded as an anonymous total per article, and is associated with a short-lived anonymous cookie so that the same reader is not counted repeatedly. It does not identify you.
• Preferences. Cookies remember your reading theme, text size, saved stories and your cookie consent choice.
• Comments. If you post a comment, the name and email address you provide are shown alongside it. Email addresses are never published.
• Advertising cookies. Set by Google AdSense and its partners, used to serve ads and limit how often you see the same one. See our Cookie Policy.

How we use your information

To deliver the newsletter you asked for; to publish comments you submit; to operate and secure the website; to measure readership so we can improve our coverage; and to fund the newsroom through advertising. We do not sell your personal information, and we do not share it with third parties for their own marketing.

Advertising and cookies

We use Google AdSense. Google and its partners use cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this or other websites. You can opt out of personalised advertising at Google Ads Settings. Where required, we ask for your consent before using non-essential cookies, and you can change your choice at any time.

How long we keep information

Newsletter and account details are kept while your subscription is active and for a reasonable period afterwards. Anonymous article view totals are kept as running totals. Comment records are kept while the comment is published and thereafter as part of our public archive. Advertising data is handled by Google under its own policies.

Your rights

You may ask us to show you the personal information we hold about you, to correct it, or to delete it, and you may unsubscribe from the newsletter at any time by using the link in any newsletter email. Write to us at [email protected] and we will respond as soon as reasonably practicable.

Security

We take reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect your information. No method of transmission over the internet is completely secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security.

Children

This site is a general-audience news publication and is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.

Changes to this policy

We may update this policy from time to time. The “Last updated” date above shows when it last changed, and the updated version will always be published on this page.
