Information We Collect
Information you provide
We may receive information you choose to send us — for example, when you contact us on X, leave a comment on a post (if comments are enabled), or use a contact form. This may include your name, email address, social media handle, and the content of your message.
Information collected automatically
When you visit SPCXNews, certain information is collected automatically through standard web technologies, including:
- Browser type and version
- Device type and operating system
- Pages visited and time spent on the site
- Referring URL (the page that linked you here)
- Approximate location (country or region, derived from IP address)
- IP address
We do not intentionally collect sensitive personal data such as financial account numbers, government ID numbers, or precise geolocation.
How We Use Information
We use collected information to:
- Operate and improve the website
- Understand how readers use our content

Blogger & Google Services
SPCXNews is hosted on Google Blogger. Google processes certain data on our behalf as part of providing hosting, content delivery, and platform infrastructure. This may include server logs, cookies, and usage data associated with your visit.
We may use additional Google services, such as:
- Google Search Console — to monitor how our site appears in search results
- Google Analytics — if enabled, to measure site traffic and reader behavior
Google's handling of data is governed by Google's own privacy policies. You can review them at policies.google.com/privacy.
Cookies & Similar Technologies
Cookies are small text files stored on your device. SPCXNews and our service providers may use cookies and similar technologies to:
- Keep the site functioning properly
- Remember preferences
- Measure traffic and performance
- Understand how visitors navigate the site
You can control or delete cookies through your browser settings. Disabling cookies may affect some site features. To opt out of Google Analytics across websites, visit Google Analytics Opt-out.
Third-Party Services
Some features on SPCXNews rely on third-party services that may collect information independently:
- Stock ticker data — our live SPCX price display may fetch public market data through third-party APIs and proxies. Those services may log request metadata such as IP address.
- External links — we link to sites such as X (Twitter), Google Finance, and Nasdaq. When you click those links, you leave SPCXNews and are subject to the privacy policies of those sites.
- Embedded content — if we embed videos, charts, or social posts in the future, the provider may set its own cookies or collect usage data.
We do not control how third parties handle your data. We encourage you to read their privacy policies before interacting with their services.
Comments
If commenting is enabled on posts, comments you submit may be publicly visible along with the name and profile information you provide. Do not post private information in comment fields. Comment data may be stored and processed by Google/Blogger on our behalf.
Data Retention
We retain information only as long as needed for the purposes described in this policy — to operate the site, maintain records, resolve disputes, and meet legal requirements. Server logs and analytics data are typically retained for a limited period defined by our hosting and analytics providers.
Security
We take reasonable steps to protect information associated with SPCXNews. However, no website or internet transmission is completely secure. We cannot guarantee absolute security of data transmitted to or from our site.
Your Rights
Depending on where you live, you may have rights regarding your personal information, including the right to:
- Request access to data we hold about you
- Request correction of inaccurate data
- Request deletion of your data
- Object to or restrict certain processing
- Withdraw consent where processing is consent-based
European Economic Area (EEA) & UK: If GDPR applies to you, you may also lodge a complaint with your local data protection authority.
California (CCPA/CPRA): California residents may have additional rights, including the right to know what personal information is collected and the right to opt out of the sale of personal information. As stated above, we do not sell personal information.
To exercise any of these rights, contact us at @SPCXNews. We may need to verify your identity before responding.
Children's Privacy
SPCXNews is intended for a general audience and is not directed at children under 13 (or under 16 in certain jurisdictions). We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided us with personal data, please contact us and we will take steps to delete it.
