Privacy Policy

• Account (optional). If you sign up, your email address and display name, or your Google account's email and name if you sign in with Google. Passwords are handled by our authentication provider and never stored in readable form.
• What you save. Saved stories and analyses, topic choices, settings, and usage counts for features with daily limits.
• Daily Brief email (optional). Your email address, the topics you pick, and whether you confirmed the subscription.
• Messages you send us. The name, email and message you enter in the contact form.
• Text you analyze. If you use Analyze, the link or text you submit, so it can be compared with other coverage.
• Usage analytics. Pages viewed, the referring site, and device and browser type, under a random ID that is not linked to your name or email. We use this to see which pages are useful and to fix problems.
• Notifications (optional). If you allow notifications in the iPhone app or your browser, a push token for that device and its time zone, so headline alerts arrive at the right local time. The token isn't linked to your account.
• Server logs. Our hosting provider briefly processes IP addresses and request details to deliver pages and block abuse.

To run CadNews: show your saved items and settings, send the emails and alerts you asked for, answer your messages, keep the service secure, limit abuse, and improve the site. We don't use your information for advertising and we don't sell or rent it.

These companies process data on our behalf, only to provide their service to CadNews:

• Cloudflare — hosting and content delivery
• Supabase — database and sign-in
• Google — Google sign-in (if you choose it) and the Gemini AI model that compares news coverage and analyzes text you submit
• Resend — sending account, contact and Daily Brief emails
• PostHog — usage analytics
• Apple — delivering iPhone notifications

Account data is kept until you delete your account. Daily Brief subscriptions are kept until you unsubscribe. Contact messages are kept as long as needed to answer them. Analytics and server logs are kept in aggregate or for a limited period. Notification tokens are removed when the device stops accepting them or you turn notifications off.

• Delete your account at any time in Settings → Delete account, on the website or in the iPhone app. This permanently removes your account and everything saved to it.
• Unsubscribe from the Daily Brief with the link in any email.
• Turn notifications off in your iPhone's Settings or your browser.
• Ask for a copy of your data, a correction, or deletion by emailing contact@cadency.tech.

CadNews is not directed to children under 13, and we don't knowingly collect their personal information.

CadNews is served over HTTPS, and saved data is restricted to your signed-in account by database access rules. See Trust & Security for details.

If we change this policy, we'll update the date above. Questions: contact@cadency.tech or the contact form. Cadency LLC, Summerville, South Carolina, USA.
