Privacy Policy

Information you provide. When you contact us (for example by email at admin@kagay-an.ph), subscribe to updates, submit a tip, or comment through linked social channels, we may receive your name, email address, phone number, and the content of your message.

Information collected automatically. When you browse our site, we and our service providers may collect technical data such as your IP address, browser type, device type, operating system, referring URLs, pages viewed, and approximate location derived from IP data. We use cookies and similar technologies as described below.

Content from third parties. Articles, images, and media on Kagay-an may be sourced from our editorial team, contributors, or syndicated partners. Third-party embeds (such as social media or video players) may collect data under their own policies.

We use collected information to:

• Publish, operate, and improve Kagay-an and our editorial services;
• Respond to inquiries, feedback, and press or advertising requests;
• Analyze traffic and usage to understand audience interests;
• Protect the security and integrity of our website;
• Comply with legal obligations and enforce our Terms of Service;
• Send newsletters or updates where you have opted in (you may unsubscribe at any time).

Where required, we rely on your consent, our legitimate interests in operating a news publication, performance of a contract, or compliance with law to process personal information. You may withdraw consent for optional processing (such as marketing emails) without affecting access to publicly available news content, subject to technical limitations.

We do not sell your personal information. We may share data with:

• Service providers (hosting, analytics, email, CDN) who process data on our behalf under confidentiality obligations;
• Advertising partners listed on our site (each operates under its own privacy policy when you leave kagay-an.ph);
• Authorities when required by law, court order, or to protect rights, safety, and security;
• Successors in connection with a merger, acquisition, or asset sale, with notice where practicable.

We use cookies and similar technologies to remember preferences, measure site performance, and support advertising. You can control cookies through your browser settings; disabling cookies may limit some features.

Third-party analytics or ad tools may set their own cookies when you interact with embedded content or partner links. We encourage you to review those providers' policies.

We retain personal information only as long as needed for the purposes described in this policy, unless a longer period is required by law. Server logs and analytics data are typically retained for a limited period and then aggregated or deleted.

We implement reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational safeguards to protect information. No method of transmission over the Internet is completely secure; we cannot guarantee absolute security.

Subject to applicable law, you may have the right to access, correct, erase, or restrict processing of your personal information, object to certain processing, receive a copy of data you provided, or lodge a complaint with the National Privacy Commission (NPC) in the Philippines.

To exercise these rights, contact us at admin@kagay-an.ph. We may need to verify your identity before responding.

Kagay-an is intended for a general audience and is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided us data, contact us and we will take appropriate steps to delete it.

Our servers and partners may be located in or outside the Philippines. By using the site, you understand that your information may be processed in jurisdictions that may have different data protection standards than your own.

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The "Last updated" date at the top will reflect revisions. Material changes may be announced on the website. Continued use after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
