Privacy Policy

Last updated: July 23, 2026

Global Securities News (“GSN,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) is published by GSN Media Ltd. This Privacy Policy explains what personal data we collect from visitors to globalsecuritiesnews.com, how we use it, who we share it with, and the choices and rights available to you. GSN is read by audiences in many countries, and this policy is written to align with the general spirit of the EU/UK General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), the California Consumer Privacy Act as amended by the CPRA, and FTC guidance on advertising disclosures, without claiming certification under any specific law or jurisdiction.

Information We Collect

We collect the following categories of personal data:

• Usage and analytics data — pages viewed, articles read, time on site, referring pages, device and browser type, and general interaction data, collected automatically through analytics tools.
• Cookies and similar technologies — small files stored on your device to remember preferences, measure traffic, and support advertising. See our Cookie Policy for the full list of cookies we use and how to manage them.
• Approximate location — we may infer your general country or region from your IP address. We use this solely to suggest a display language or default regional edition of the site; we do not use it to build detailed location profiles.
• Information you submit directly — if you contact us, sign up for a newsletter, or otherwise submit a form, we collect the information you provide, such as your name, email address, and the content of your message.
• Email correspondence — if you email us, we retain that correspondence and your email address to respond to you and maintain a record of the exchange.

We do not knowingly collect financial account numbers, government identification numbers, or other sensitive personal data through our site, and we ask that you not include such information in any message you send us.

How We Use Your Information

We use personal data to:

1. Operate, maintain, and improve the site and its content;
2. Understand aggregate readership trends across the regions and countries we cover;
3. Suggest an appropriate display language or regional edition;
4. Respond to inquiries submitted through our Contact page or by email;
5. Send newsletters or editorial updates to subscribers who have signed up, and allow them to unsubscribe at any time;
6. Deliver, measure, and limit the frequency of advertising, including sponsored content and native recommendation widgets; and
7. Detect, prevent, and address technical issues, fraud, or abuse.

GSN provides news and information only. Nothing on this site, and no data we collect, is used to provide personalized investment, legal, or tax advice.

How We Share Information

We do not sell personal data for money. We share limited data with the following categories of third parties to operate the site and serve advertising:

• Google Ad Manager — used to serve leaderboard, sidebar, and in-article display advertising. Google and its advertising partners may use cookies and device identifiers to serve relevant ads.
• Native content-recommendation networks — Outbrain/Taboola-style widgets shown at the end of articles, which may use cookies to recommend content and third-party offers.
• Analytics providers — aggregate traffic-measurement tools that help us understand how the site is used.
• Service providers — vendors who host our infrastructure, send newsletters, or otherwise support site operations on our behalf, under confidentiality obligations.
• Legal and safety purposes — where required to comply with law, enforce our Terms & Conditions, or protect the rights, property, or safety of GSN, our readers, or others.

Because these third parties may process data outside your own country, some sharing described above may itself constitute an international transfer as described below. For more on advertising and sponsored content, see our Advertising Disclosure, Affiliate Disclosure, and Paid Promotions Policy.

International Data Transfers

GSN is a global publication, and our service providers operate data centers in multiple countries. As a result, personal data we collect may be transferred to, stored in, and processed in countries other than your own, including countries that may have different data protection laws than where you live. Where required, we rely on appropriate safeguards — such as standard contractual clauses or equivalent mechanisms — when our service providers transfer personal data internationally.

Data Retention

We retain personal data only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this policy: typically, the duration of an active newsletter subscription plus a reasonable period thereafter, the period needed to resolve a contact inquiry and maintain a reasonable correspondence record, or the retention period set by our analytics and advertising partners for aggregate or cookie-based data. When personal data is no longer needed, we delete it or render it anonymous.

Your Privacy Rights

Depending on where you live, you may have some or all of the following rights regarding your personal data:

• Access — request a copy of the personal data we hold about you.
• Correction — request that we correct inaccurate or incomplete data.
• Deletion — request that we delete personal data we hold about you, subject to legal exceptions.
• Opt-out of “sale” or “sharing” — under the CCPA/CPRA, California residents may direct us not to “sell” or “share” personal data for cross-context behavioral advertising. GSN does not sell personal data for money; where advertising cookies constitute “sharing” under California law, you can opt out through our cookie banner or the choices described in our Cookie Policy.
• GDPR-style rights — readers in the EU, UK, and EEA may additionally have rights to restrict or object to processing, request data portability, and withdraw consent at any time where processing is based on consent, without affecting the lawfulness of processing before withdrawal.
• Non-discrimination — we will not discriminate against you for exercising any privacy right.

To exercise any of these rights, contact us at editors@globalsecuritiesnews.com. We may need to verify your request before acting on it, and we will respond within the timeframe required by applicable law. You may also manage advertising and analytics cookies at any time through the cookie settings described in our Cookie Policy, and you may generally opt out of interest-based advertising through the tools your browser or device provides.

Children’s Privacy

Global Securities News is a securities and markets news publication directed at a general adult and professional audience. It is not directed at children under 13 (or under 16 in jurisdictions that set that threshold), and we do not knowingly collect personal data from children. If you believe a child has provided us with personal data, please contact us at editors@globalsecuritiesnews.com so we can delete it.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices, our use of third-party services, or applicable law. The “Updated” date at the top of this page reflects the date of the most recent revision. Where changes are material, we will provide reasonably prominent notice on the site, such as a banner or notice on this page, in advance of the change taking effect.
