Privacy Policy
Last updated: 2025-12-29
Newswire is built to help you read and manage news with as little data collection as possible. You remain in control of what you share, and the connector only collects data when you explicitly connect it.
Information We Collect
We collect only the data needed to operate Newswire and the optional connector features.
- Connector data (optional): If you click "Connect to Newswire," the connector uploads a Playwright storage state (NYT cookies and NYT localStorage) and a SingleFile HTML snapshot for the article you choose to capture.
- Snapshots and metadata: We store the HTML snapshot and any optional metadata (such as title or author) provided by the connector to render the article in Newswire.
- Basic request data: Our servers receive standard request data (such as IP address, timestamps, and user agent) for security, debugging, and abuse prevention.
How We Use Information
- Provide the snapshot capture and rendering workflow.
- Keep your session connected to Newswire when you request captures.
- Maintain service reliability, security, and performance.
Sharing
We do not sell your personal information. We only share data with service providers necessary to run Newswire (for example, hosting and storage) or if required by law.
Security
Data is transmitted over HTTPS. We limit access to stored snapshots and session data to the minimum required for operating the service.
Your Choices
- You can use Newswire without connecting the connector; snapshots will not be captured until you opt in.
- You can revoke connector access at any time by disabling the extension or clearing its stored token.
- You may request deletion of stored snapshots or connector data by contacting us.
Changes
If we make material changes to this policy, we will update this page and adjust the "Last updated" date above.
