Privacy Policy
We are a news website, not a data company. We collect as little about you as we can, and this page explains, in plain words, what we collect, why, and what you can do about it.
Last updated: 11 October 2026
1. Who we are
The Peak Content (thepeakcontent.in) is an independent digital news platform run from Bhopal, Madhya Pradesh, India. When this policy says "we", "us" or "our", it means The Peak Content.
2. What information we collect
You can read every article on this website without creating an account or telling us who you are. The information we do get falls into three groups:
- Information you send us: if you use our contact form or email us, the form opens your own email app. We only receive what you choose to send, usually your name, email address and message. The form itself does not save anything on our servers.
- Usage information: like most websites, we use analytics tools to see which pages are read, roughly where visitors come from (city or country), what kind of device and browser they use, and which website sent them to us. This is counted in bulk; we do not use it to identify you personally.
- Small settings saved in your browser: we remember your language choice (English or Hindi) and whether you have already voted in a poll, so you are not asked again. These stay on your device and are not sent to us.
3. Polls
Poll votes are anonymous. We only store the total number of votes for each option. We do not record your name, email or account with your vote.
5. How we use your information
We do not sell your personal information to anyone.
- To reply to your messages, news tips and correction requests.
- To understand which stories are read so we can improve our coverage.
- To keep the website fast, secure and working properly.
- To show advertising that pays for our journalism.
- To follow the law when we are legally required to.
7. Controlling ads and analytics
You can block or delete cookies in your browser settings at any time. The site will still work, although your language choice may reset. You can also use these official tools:
8. How long we keep information
We keep emails only for as long as we need them to reply, follow up on a story or keep a record of corrections. Analytics data is kept by the analytics providers for the period set in their tools, after which it is deleted or made anonymous.
9. Your rights
Under India's Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023, and similar laws in other countries, you can ask us to:
- tell you what personal information we hold about you;
- correct information that is wrong or incomplete;
- delete your information, unless we have to keep it by law;
- withdraw any consent you gave us earlier.
10. Children's privacy
Our website is meant for a general adult audience. We do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 18. If you believe a child has sent us personal information, please contact us and we will delete it.
11. Keeping information safe
The website runs over a secure HTTPS connection, and access to our admin area is limited to our editorial team. No website can promise complete security, but we take reasonable steps to protect what we hold.
12. Links to other websites
Our articles sometimes link to other websites and sources. We are not responsible for how those websites handle your information, so please read their privacy policies too.
13. Changes to this policy
If we change how we handle information, we will update this page and the date at the top. For important changes we will also add a notice on the website.
14. Contact and grievances
For any privacy question, request or complaint, email us at thepeakcontent5@gmail.com with the subject "Privacy". We read every message and aim to reply within 7 working days.
