The DigiMint Does Not Sell Your Personal Information
We do not sell, rent, trade, or otherwise transfer your personal data to third parties for their own marketing or commercial purposes — and we never will.
Our Commitment to You
At The DigiMint, your trust matters to us. We are a free, independent news and content platform covering Fashion, Health, Lifestyle, Sports, and Tech. We sustain our platform through advertising — not by monetising your personal data.
We confirm the following commitments to every reader and visitor of thedigimint.com:
What Does "Selling" Personal Information Mean?
Under laws like the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) and similar global frameworks, "selling" personal information is defined broadly. It includes disclosing, releasing, renting, transferring, or sharing personal data for monetary or other valuable consideration.
This means even sharing data with third parties in exchange for advertising revenue or services — not just a direct cash payment — can qualify as a "sale" under these laws.
Charging money for access to your personal data. We do not do this.
Trading your data for services or benefits. We do not do this.
Sharing data to build ad profiles. Limited — see Section 06.
Supplying data to aggregators. We do not do this.
Our Position: The DigiMint does not engage in the sale of personal information in any form. While third-party advertising tools (like Google AdSense) may collect limited data for contextual ads, we do not directly sell or trade your information and you can opt out of this at any time.
Personal Data We Collect & How We Use It
For full transparency, here is a breakdown of every category of personal data The DigiMint may collect, how it is used, and whether it is ever shared with third parties:
| Data Category | What We Collect | Why We Collect It | Sold? |
|---|---|---|---|
| Identity Data | Name, display name (if commenting) | Comment moderation, newsletter personalisation | Never |
| Contact Data | Email address (newsletter subscribers) | Sending newsletters and editorial updates | Never |
| Usage Data | Pages visited, time on site, clicks, referring URL | Analytics, improving content quality | Never |
| Technical Data | IP address, browser type, device, OS | Security, site performance, analytics | Never |
| Cookie / Tracking Data | Analytics cookies, advertising identifiers | Site analytics, contextual advertising (Google AdSense) | Limited — opt out below |
| Comment Content | Comments submitted on articles | Community engagement, moderation | Never |
The only category where limited third-party data sharing may occur is through advertising cookies (Google AdSense). This is standard practice for free ad-supported websites and does not involve us directly handing over your personally identifiable information.
