At MahaBreaking.com (accessible from https://mahabreaking.com), the privacy of our visitors is extremely important to us. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and the choices you have. If you have questions, please contact us at contact@mahabreaking.com.

Information We Collect

Information you provide

  • Name, email address, and content when leaving comments or contacting us.
  • Information submitted via forms (e.g., news tips, feedback, subscriptions).

Automatically collected

  • IP address, browser & device info, pages visited, and timestamps.
  • Cookies and similar technologies (see Cookies).

If you upload images, avoid including embedded location data (EXIF GPS). Visitors may download and extract location data from images published on the site.

How We Use Your Information

  • Operate, maintain, and improve our website and content.
  • Respond to inquiries and provide support.
  • Send newsletters or updates if you choose to subscribe (you can opt out anytime).
  • Measure performance and serve relevant advertisements through third‑party services such as Google AdSense and Google Analytics.

Comments

When visitors leave comments, 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. An anonymized string created from your email address (a hash) may be provided to the Gravatar service to check if you are using it. After approval of your comment, your profile picture may be visible to the public in the context of your comment.

Cookies

We use cookies to remember preferences, understand how visitors use our site, and improve performance. You can control cookies through your browser settings.

Login and editor cookies

  • A temporary cookie is set on the login page to check if your browser accepts cookies (discarded when you close your browser).
  • When you log in, we set cookies to save your login information and screen display choices. Login cookies last for two days; screen‑options cookies last for one year. Selecting “Remember Me” keeps your login for two weeks. Logging out removes login cookies.
  • If you edit or publish an article, an additional cookie will be saved in your browser indicating the post ID of the article you edited (expires after 1 day).

Embedded Content from Other Websites

Articles may include embedded content (e.g., videos, images, articles). Embedded content from other websites behaves in the same way as if the visitor has visited the other website. These websites may collect data, use cookies, embed additional third‑party tracking, and monitor your interaction with that embedded content.

We use third‑party advertising companies, including Google AdSense, to serve ads when you visit our website. These companies may use cookies and similar technologies to collect information about your visits to this and other websites to provide advertisements about goods and services of interest to you.

How Long We Retain Your Data
