Privacy Policy
Last updated: October 4, 2026
This Privacy Policy explains what information LiveNewsMag (“we”, “us”, “our”) collects when you visit www.livenewsmag.com (the “Site”), how that information is used, who it is shared with, and the choices you have. By using the Site you agree to the practices described here.
1. Information we collect
Information you give us. If you contact us through our Contact page, we receive the details you enter, such as your name, email address and message. We use these only to reply to you.
Information collected automatically. Like most websites, our servers and the third-party services we use automatically receive certain information when you visit, including your IP address, browser type, device type, operating system, referring page, pages viewed, and the date and time of your visit.
Live stream players. When you press play on a channel, your device connects to a third-party streaming server. That server receives your IP address and technical details needed to deliver the video, and may use a temporary access token that expires automatically.
We do not ask for, and do not knowingly collect, sensitive information such as payment details or government identification numbers. The Site has no user accounts for visitors.
2. Cookies and similar technologies
Cookies are small text files stored on your device. We and our partners use cookies, pixels, local storage and similar technologies to keep the Site working, remember your preferences, measure traffic, prevent fraud, and show and measure advertising.
You can block or delete cookies in your browser settings. If you do, some parts of the Site, including video players and advertising, may not work as intended.
3. Advertising
The Site is free because it is supported by advertising. We work with third-party advertising companies, including Google, to serve ads when you visit. These companies may use cookies and similar technologies to collect information about your visits to this and other websites in order to show ads that may interest you and to measure how ads perform.
- Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this Site and other websites.
- Google’s use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to you based on your visits to this Site and/or other sites on the Internet.
- You may opt out of personalised advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings. You can also opt out of many third-party vendors’ use of cookies for personalised advertising at aboutads.info or, in Europe, youronlinechoices.eu.
- To learn how Google uses information from sites that use its services, see How Google uses information from sites or apps that use our services.
Other advertising, video and content-recommendation partners may also place cookies on your device when you visit. Each partner handles information under its own privacy policy. Visitors in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom and Switzerland are shown a consent message, and personalised advertising is only used where you have agreed to it.
4. Analytics
We use analytics services, such as Google Analytics and Histats, to understand how visitors use the Site, for example which channels are most popular and which pages load slowly. These services receive information such as your IP address, device details and pages viewed, and report it to us in aggregated form.
5. How we use information
- To operate the Site and deliver live streams and pages to your device;
- To answer messages you send us;
- To understand usage and improve the Site;
- To show and measure advertising that funds the Site;
- To detect and prevent abuse, fraud and security incidents;
- To comply with legal obligations.
6. How information is shared
We do not sell your name, email address or contact details. Information is shared only with service providers that help us run the Site (hosting, streaming, analytics, security and advertising partners), when required by law or to protect our rights and the safety of others, or as part of a merger or sale of the Site. Some of these disclosures, such as allowing advertising partners to collect information through cookies, may be considered a “sale” or “sharing” of personal information under some US state laws.
7. Your rights
California and other US states. Depending on where you live, you may have the right to know what personal information is collected about you, to request access to or deletion of it, to correct it, and to opt out of the “sale” or “sharing” of personal information and of targeted advertising. You can opt out of personalised ads using the links in section 3, and you can use a Global Privacy Control signal in your browser. We will not discriminate against you for exercising these rights.
European Economic Area, United Kingdom and Switzerland. You have the right to access, correct, delete, restrict or object to the processing of your personal data, the right to data portability, and the right to withdraw consent at any time. Our legal bases for processing are your consent (for personalised advertising and non-essential cookies) and our legitimate interests in operating, securing and improving the Site. You also have the right to complain to your local data protection authority.
To make a request, contact us through our Contact page. Because we do not keep visitor accounts, we may hold little or no information that can be linked to you, and we may need to verify your request.
8. Data retention
Messages you send us are kept only as long as needed to deal with your enquiry. Server logs are kept for a limited period for security and troubleshooting and then deleted. Information collected by third-party partners is retained under their own policies.
9. Security
We use reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect information, including encrypted (HTTPS) connections. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security.
10. Children
The Site is a general-audience news directory and is not directed to children under 13 (or under 16 in the EEA and UK). We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has sent us personal information, contact us and we will delete it.
11. International visitors
Our servers and partners may be located outside your country, including in the United States. By using the Site you understand that your information may be processed in countries whose data protection laws differ from yours.
12. Third-party websites
The Site links to and embeds content from third-party websites and services. We are not responsible for their content or privacy practices. Please read their privacy policies.
13. Changes to this policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The “Last updated” date at the top shows when it was last changed. Continued use of the Site after a change means you accept the updated policy.
14. Contact us
