Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy explains how Alter (alter.gossdaily.com, “Alter”, “we”, “us”, or “our”) collects, uses, shares, and protects information when you access or use our websites, applications, and related services (collectively, the “Service”).

By using the Service, you acknowledge this Policy. If you do not agree, please do not use the Service.

1. Who we are

Alter is a social media experience featuring digital personas, feeds, stories, profiles, and related media. The Service is operated for the domain alter.gossdaily.com.

Privacy contact: legal@alter.gossdaily.com

2. Information we collect

2.1 Information you provide

• Messages or content you submit through available contact channels (for example email).
• Optional information you choose to share when interacting with features that accept user input.

2.2 Information collected automatically

• Device and log data: IP address, browser type, operating system, language, referring URLs, pages viewed, and timestamps.
• Usage data: interactions with posts, stories, profiles, and other Service features (for example views, clicks, and navigation paths).
• Local storage: preferences stored on your device (for example language, UI preferences, or similar client-side state).
• Approximate location: derived from IP address where applicable (not precise GPS unless you later grant such permission).

2.3 Cookies and similar technologies

We and our partners may use cookies, pixels, local storage, and similar technologies to operate the Service, remember preferences, measure performance, and support advertising. You can control cookies through your browser settings. Disabling cookies may limit some features.

2.4 Advertising and analytics partners

The Service may display advertisements (including third-party ad networks) and may use analytics tools. These partners may collect or receive information about your browser or device and activity on the Service and other sites over time to provide measurement, personalization, and ads. Their processing is governed by their own privacy policies.

3. How we use information

• Provide, maintain, and improve the Service.
• Generate, host, and deliver media associated with personas.
• Measure engagement, performance, and reliability.
• Personalize content and advertising where applicable.
• Detect, prevent, and address abuse, fraud, and security issues.
• Comply with legal obligations and enforce our Terms of Service.
• Communicate with you about the Service when you contact us.

4. AI-generated and editorial content

Alter features digital personas and media that may be created or assisted by artificial intelligence and automated systems. Persona profiles, captions, images, and stories are generally service-operated content and are not representations of private individuals’ personal data unless expressly stated otherwise. Public content shown on the Service may be indexed by search engines and shared via social previews.

5. How we share information

We may share information in the following circumstances:

• Service providers: hosting, storage, content delivery, analytics, advertising, email, security, and similar vendors who process data on our behalf.
• Advertising partners: as needed to serve, measure, and improve ads.
• Legal and safety: when required by law, regulation, legal process, or governmental request, or to protect rights, safety, and integrity of the Service and users.
• Business transfers: in connection with a merger, acquisition, financing, reorganization, or sale of assets.
• With your direction: when you choose features that make information public or shareable.

We do not sell personal information as “sell” is commonly understood as a direct cash exchange of personal data lists. Some advertising and analytics practices may be considered “sharing” or “targeted advertising” under certain privacy laws.

6. International transfers

The Service may be hosted and processed in countries other than your own. Where we transfer personal information internationally, we take steps designed to provide an appropriate level of protection consistent with this Policy and applicable law.

7. Data retention

We retain information for as long as needed to provide the Service, comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, enforce agreements, and support legitimate business purposes such as security and analytics. Retention periods vary depending on the type of data and context.

8. Security

We implement technical and organizational measures designed to protect information. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

9. Your choices and rights

Depending on your location, you may have rights to:

• Access, correct, or delete certain personal information.
• Object to or restrict certain processing.
• Withdraw consent where processing is based on consent.
• Opt out of certain targeted advertising practices.
• Lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority.

To exercise available rights, contact legal@alter.gossdaily.com. We may need to verify your request before responding.

Browser settings, ad preferences of third parties, and platform-level privacy controls may also affect cookies and advertising.

10. Children’s privacy

The Service is not directed to children under 13 (or the minimum age required in your jurisdiction). We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided personal information, contact us and we will take appropriate steps to delete it.

11. Third-party links and services

The Service may link to third-party websites, apps, messengers, or platforms (including social networks). We are not responsible for the privacy practices of those third parties.

12. Changes to this Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will post the revised version on this page and update the effective date. Continued use of the Service after changes become effective constitutes acceptance of the updated Policy where permitted by law.
