Privacy Policy

Last updated: 10 June 2026

This Privacy Policy explains how The Dispatch (“we”, “us”), operated by Desvelado, collects, uses, and protects your personal information. We aim to comply with the EU/UK General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA/CPRA), and India's Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023 (DPDP Act).

Information we collect

• Account data — name, email, and a hashed password when you register.
• Newsletter data — your email address and topic preferences if you subscribe.
• Usage data — saved articles, anonymous article-view counts, and optional feedback you submit.
• Essential cookies — a sign-in session cookie and your cookie-consent choice. Analytics cookies are only used with your consent.

How we use it

• To provide the service: authentication, saved articles, newsletters.
• To send emails you asked for (with one-click unsubscribe in every email).
• To understand aggregate usage and improve the product.

Legal bases (GDPR)

We process data on the bases of consent (newsletters, analytics), contract (providing your account), and legitimate interests (security, product improvement).

Your rights

Depending on your location you may have rights to access, correct, delete, port, or restrict your data, to withdraw consent, and (CCPA) to opt out of “sale/share” — we do not sell your personal information. To exercise any right, email compliance@desvelado.in.

Data retention & security

We keep data only as long as needed for the purposes above, store passwords hashed, and restrict access. No method of transmission is 100% secure, but we take reasonable safeguards.
