Privacy Policy
Last updated: June 30, 2026
Overview
yai.news is an editorial reading site that curates public technology, startup, AI, and frontier-research content from original publishers. This policy explains what information may be processed when you visit the site, how that information is used, and the choices available to readers.
Information We May Collect
We may process limited technical and usage information, including pages viewed, approximate timestamps, referral sources, browser type, device type, language preference, general region inferred from network information, and basic request metadata needed to serve the page. We also store aggregate page-view counts for stories so that the site can rank and understand public reader interest.
yai.news does not require readers to create an account, submit a profile, or provide a real name to read public pages.
How We Use Information
We use information to operate and secure the site, remember interface preferences such as language or theme, measure aggregate usage, debug errors, improve curation and ranking, and support advertising or sponsorship placements. We do not sell reader profiles.
Advertising And Cookies
yai.news may show advertising, including ads served by third-party providers such as Google AdSense. These providers may use cookies or similar technologies to deliver, measure, and improve ads. Readers can manage advertising preferences through their browser settings and applicable third-party privacy controls.
The site may also use first-party cookies or local storage for reader preferences, such as language selection and theme mode. These preferences are intended to improve the reading experience and are not required to access public content.
Third-Party Content
Stories may link to or embed third-party sources, including video, essays, and original publisher pages. Visiting those services is governed by their own privacy policies.
AI-Assisted Processing
yai.news may use automated or AI-assisted systems to summarize, translate, classify, rank, or format public-source material. These systems are used to produce editorial metadata and reading aids, not to make decisions about individual readers.
Data Retention
We keep operational logs, cache entries, analytics records, and story metadata for as long as reasonably useful to run, secure, debug, and improve the service, unless a shorter period is required by law or platform policy.
Security
We use reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect the service. No internet service can be guaranteed to be completely secure, and readers should avoid sending sensitive personal information through links or third-party pages unless they trust the destination.
Children
yai.news is intended for a general technology-reading audience and is not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13.
Changes To This Policy
We may update this policy as the site, vendors, or applicable requirements change. The updated date above reflects the latest version.
