Privacy Policy

FACTFUN.CO is an informational website featuring fun facts, science, nature, space, history, and unexplained topics. We aim to collect only information that is reasonably necessary to operate, secure, improve, and support the Website.

1. Scope of this policy

This policy applies to information collected through the Website and related communications. It does not apply to third-party websites, services, advertisements, or content that may be linked from the Website. Those parties maintain their own privacy policies, and we encourage you to review them.

2. Information we may collect

We do not require visitors to create an account to read the Website. Please do not send sensitive personal information through ordinary email or contact forms.

3. How we use information

Depending on the information and the context in which it is collected, we may use it to:

• operate, maintain, personalise, and improve the Website and its content;
• respond to enquiries, requests, or feedback;
• understand aggregate audience trends and diagnose technical issues;
• protect the Website, our visitors, and our systems against spam, fraud, security incidents, or misuse;
• comply with legal obligations and enforce our rights; and
• display and measure advertising, including advertisements served through Google AdSense, subject to applicable consent requirements.

4. Cookies, analytics, and advertising

We and our service providers may use cookies, pixels, local storage, tags, and similar technologies. These help us remember choices, measure Website traffic, understand performance, keep the Website secure, and support advertising. For details and controls, visit our Cookie Policy.

FACTFUN.CO may use Google AdSense. Google and its partners may collect or receive information from your browser or device to deliver and measure ads, prevent invalid traffic, manage ad frequency, and—where you have given the required permission—personalise advertising. Google’s practices are described in its Advertising Technologies Policy and Partner Sites Policy.

Visitors can manage Google ad personalisation through Google My Ad Center. Where required by law, we request consent before setting non-essential cookies or using personal data for personalised advertising. Visitors in the EEA, UK, and Switzerland are presented with the relevant consent choices through our consent-management platform.

5. Legal bases for processing

Where data-protection law requires a legal basis, we process personal information because it is necessary to operate and secure the Website; to respond to you or take steps at your request; with your consent; to pursue legitimate interests such as improving and protecting the Website; or to comply with legal obligations. You may withdraw consent at any time through our cookie settings or by contacting us. Withdrawal does not affect processing already carried out before withdrawal.

6. How information may be shared

We do not sell personal information for money. We may share limited information with trusted recipients where necessary for the purposes described in this policy:

Some privacy laws define “sharing” broadly. The use of third-party advertising technologies may be treated as sharing for cross-context behavioural advertising in certain jurisdictions. Where applicable, you can exercise available opt-out choices through our cookie settings or a recognised browser-based opt-out signal.

7. Data retention and security

We keep personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this policy, including to meet legal, accounting, security, or reporting requirements. The precise retention period depends on the type of information, why it was collected, and our legal obligations.

We use reasonable administrative, technical, and organisational safeguards designed to protect information from unauthorised access, loss, misuse, alteration, or disclosure. No online system is completely secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security.

8. International data transfers

The Website and its providers may process information in countries other than the country where you live. Those countries may have different data-protection laws. When required, we take appropriate steps intended to provide a lawful level of protection for international transfers.

9. Your privacy choices and rights

Depending on where you live and subject to applicable law, you may have the right to request access to, correction of, deletion of, restriction of, or portability of your personal information; object to certain processing; withdraw consent; or lodge a complaint with your local data-protection authority.

10. Children’s privacy

FACTFUN.CO is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided personal information to us, please contact us promptly at fa********@***il.com. We will take appropriate steps to delete it where required.

11. Third-party links and embedded content

The Website may contain links to third-party websites or embedded content. When you interact with those services, they may collect information under their own policies. We are not responsible for the privacy practices, content, or security of third-party services.

12. Changes to this policy

We may update this Privacy Policy to reflect changes to the Website, our practices, technologies, legal requirements, or other operational reasons. We will post the revised version on this page and update the “Last updated” date. Please review this page periodically.
