Log Files
The US News follows a standard procedure of using log files. These files log visitors when they visit websites. All hosting companies do this and are a part of hosting services’ analytics. The information collected by log files includes internet protocol (IP) addresses, browser type, Internet Service Provider (ISP), date and time stamp, referring/exit pages, and possibly the number of clicks. These are not linked to any information that is personally identifiable. The purpose of the information is to analyse trends, administering the site, tracking users’ movement on the website, and gathering demographic information.
Media
You should avoid posting photographs to the website that have embedded location data (also known as EXIF GPS) if you plan on uploading images to the website. Downloading and extracting any location data from the photographs hosted on the website is an option for visitors to the website.
Embedded content from other websites
There may be embedded material in some of the articles found on this website (e.g. videos, images, articles, etc.). When a visitor views material that has been embedded from another website, the experience is exactly the same as if they had visited the original website themselves.
These websites may gather data about you, utilise cookies, embed extra third-party tracking, and monitor your engagement with that embedded material. If you have an account and are signed in to that website, they may also track your activity with the embedded content.
How long we retain your data
If you post a remark, both the comment and the information associated with it will be stored permanently. This is done so that any follow-up comments may be recognised and approved automatically, rather than having to wait in a moderation queue for them to be reviewed.
Assuming a user chooses to register on The US News website (if there are any users who want to register), we will additionally keep any personally identifying information that they supply in their user profile. Every user has the ability to see, make changes to, or remove their own personal information at any time (except they cannot change their username). Administrators of the website are able to see and change such information as well.
What rights you have over your data
You have the ability to request to acquire an exported file of the personal data we possess on you, which includes any data you have submitted to us, if you have an account on our website or have made comments on articles that we have posted. You also have the option to request that we delete any personal information that we have stored about you. This does not include any data that we are required to store for administrative, legal, or security concerns. Those are the only types of data that are not included.
