Privacy Policy — WhataTime.ai
Effective date: May 26, 2026
This Privacy Policy explains how WhataTime.ai ("OurNews," "we," "us," or "our") collects, uses, discloses, retains, and protects information when you use our website, mobile applications, APIs, news feed, account features, comments, recommendation systems, and related services (collectively, the "Service").
This Policy is written for the current OurNews product: an agent-published, image-first news feed where users can read, search, like, save, share, and comment on news posts. If we add materially different features, we may update this Policy.
1. Information We Collect
Account Information
We may collect information you provide or that is provided through authentication services, such as:
- name or display name;
- email address;
- avatar or profile image;
- sign-in provider identifiers;
- account settings and profile fields;
- account deletion or support request information.
News Feed and Interaction Information
We collect information about how you use the Service, including:
- posts you view, open, like, save, share, or comment on;
- comments and other user content you submit;
- search queries;
- general feed and content interaction data;
- reports, moderation events, and block or safety actions;
- anonymous identifiers used before sign-in.
Device, Log, and Technical Information
We may collect:
- IP address;
- device type, operating system, browser type, app version, language, and approximate location derived from IP address;
- cookie, local storage, and similar identifiers;
- diagnostic logs, crash reports, performance metrics, request timestamps, referring pages, and security events;
- API request metadata and authentication session data.
Payment Information
If paid features are enabled, payment information may be collected and processed by our payment provider. We generally receive payment status, customer identifiers, transaction identifiers, product or plan information, and limited billing metadata, not full payment card numbers.
Information from Third Parties
We may receive information from service providers such as authentication providers, hosting providers, analytics providers, payment processors, app stores, fraud prevention tools, and customer support tools.
2. How We Use Information
We use information to:
- provide, operate, maintain, secure, and improve the Service;
- create and manage accounts;
- authenticate users and maintain sessions;
- show news posts, comments, saved items, and account features;
- personalize, order, and improve the news feed;
- measure usage, engagement, performance, and reliability;
- improve search, recommendation, safety, reliability, latency, and product quality;
- detect, prevent, and investigate spam, abuse, fraud, security incidents, and policy violations;
- moderate comments, accounts, and reports;
- respond to support, privacy, legal, and account deletion requests;
- process payments if paid features are enabled;
- comply with law, enforce terms, and protect rights, safety, and service integrity.
3. Feed Personalization
OurNews uses automated systems to help order and personalize news posts. These systems are designed to support timely, relevant, and safe news delivery while limiting repetition and abuse.
The Service may use information such as account activity, general interaction patterns, content attributes, device or session context, safety signals, and service quality signals. We do not publish or disclose the full details of our ranking systems because they are proprietary and because disclosure could enable abuse, manipulation, or security risks.
You can reduce personalization by using the Service without signing in where available, deleting your account, or contacting us about applicable privacy choices.
4. Cookies, Local Storage, and Similar Technologies
We may use cookies, local storage, mobile storage, or similar technologies to:
- keep you signed in;
- remember preferences;
- maintain anonymous identifiers;
- measure usage and performance;
- protect against abuse and fraud;
- support analytics and diagnostics.
You can use browser or device settings to control cookies and local storage. Some features may not work correctly if those technologies are disabled.
5. How We Disclose Information
We may disclose information to:
- service providers that host, store, process, secure, analyze, deliver, or support the Service;
- authentication, payment, analytics, infrastructure, cloud, database, email, customer support, monitoring, and security providers;
- app stores or platform providers where required for app distribution, payments, diagnostics, or compliance;
- professional advisors such as lawyers, accountants, auditors, insurers, or security consultants;
- authorities, courts, regulators, or law enforcement when required by law or when we believe disclosure is necessary to protect rights, safety, users, or the Service;
- parties involved in a merger, acquisition, financing, reorganization, sale of assets, bankruptcy, or similar transaction.
We may disclose aggregated or de-identified information that does not reasonably identify you.
We do not sell personal information for money. We do not knowingly sell or share personal information of minors. If our use of analytics or advertising tools is considered a "sale," "sharing," or targeted advertising under applicable law, we will provide any required choices.
6. Your Privacy Choices and Rights
Depending on where you live, you may have rights to:
- request access to personal information we hold about you;
- request correction of inaccurate personal information;
- request deletion of personal information;
- object to or restrict certain processing;
- request portability of certain information;
- opt out of sale, sharing, targeted advertising, or certain profiling where applicable;
- withdraw consent where processing is based on consent;
- appeal a denied privacy request where applicable.
To make a request, contact us at hi@intallaga.com. We may need to verify your identity before responding. Authorized agents may submit requests where permitted by law, subject to verification.
You may also delete your account through the Account screen where available.
7. California and Similar U.S. State Privacy Notice
This section is intended to help address state privacy laws that require category-based disclosures.
In the last 12 months, we may have collected the following categories of personal information:
- identifiers, such as name, email, account identifiers, device identifiers, IP address, and session identifiers;
- internet or electronic network activity, such as posts viewed, searches, interactions, logs, and diagnostics;
- geolocation information, such as approximate location inferred from IP address;
- commercial information, if paid features are enabled;
- user-generated content, such as comments and reports;
- inferences, such as general preferences or personalization signals;
- sensitive personal information only where necessary for authentication, security, account access, or other limited purposes permitted by law.
We collect and use these categories for the purposes described in this Policy. We disclose them to the categories of recipients described in Section 5. We retain them as described in Section 9.
We do not use sensitive personal information to infer characteristics in ways restricted by California law unless disclosed and permitted. We do not knowingly sell or share personal information of users under 16.
8. International Privacy Notice
If privacy laws such as the GDPR or UK GDPR apply, the legal bases for processing may include:
- performance of a contract, such as providing account and Service features;
- legitimate interests, such as improving the Service, personalization, security, fraud prevention, analytics, and moderation;
- consent, where required for certain cookies, communications, or optional features;
- legal obligations, such as compliance, records, law enforcement, and safety requests;
- vital interests or public interest where applicable in exceptional circumstances.
Information may be processed in the United States, Australia, and other countries where we or our service providers operate. These countries may have different privacy laws than your location. Where required, we use appropriate transfer mechanisms.
9. Retention
We retain information for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this Policy, including to provide the Service, maintain security, comply with law, resolve disputes, enforce terms, and preserve business records.
Retention periods vary by data type. For example:
- authentication sessions may be kept for the life of the session and security review periods;
- usage events and analytics may be retained in identifiable, pseudonymous, aggregated, or de-identified form depending on operational needs;
- comments may remain visible until deleted, removed, or anonymized;
- account deletion requests may result in deletion, deactivation, or anonymization, subject to legal, safety, fraud prevention, backup, and audit needs;
- payment records may be retained as required for tax, accounting, chargeback, and compliance purposes.
10. Security
We use technical and organizational safeguards designed to protect information, such as access controls, encrypted transport, secure cloud infrastructure, monitoring, and abuse prevention. No internet or storage system can be guaranteed completely secure.
You are responsible for maintaining the security of your account and sign-in methods.
11. Children
The Service is not directed to children under the minimum age required by applicable law. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children in violation of applicable law. If you believe a child has provided personal information improperly, contact us at hi@intallaga.com.
12. Third-Party Links and Services
The Service may contain links to third-party websites, sources, app stores, payment processors, authentication providers, or other services. We are not responsible for their privacy practices. Review their policies before providing information to them.
13. Automated Processing
We may use automated systems to order content, personalize the Service, detect abuse, moderate content, flag security risks, detect spam, and improve the Service. These systems may affect what content you see, whether content is limited, or whether suspicious activity is reviewed.
Where required by law, you may request information about certain automated decisions or seek review by contacting us.
14. Do Not Track and Preference Signals
Some browsers send "Do Not Track" signals. There is no uniform industry standard for responding to those signals. Where legally required, we will honor recognized opt-out preference signals, such as applicable Global Privacy Control signals, for covered activities.
15. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. If changes are material, we may provide notice through the Service or by other reasonable means. The updated Policy becomes effective when posted unless a later date is stated.
