Effective Date: 16 Sep 2025
This policy explains how OCE News uses advertising, including Google-provided ads and partner ads, and how your data may be used to provide a personalised ad experience. By using our site, you agree to this policy.
1. Types of Ads
- Google Ads: Ads served through Google AdSense and other Google advertising tools that may use cookies and tracking technologies.
- Partner Ads: Ads from sponsors, affiliates, or direct partnerships arranged by OCE News.
2. How We Use Data
Ads on our site may be personalised based on your activity. This can include:
- Cookies and device identifiers that track visits and interactions with our site.
- General demographic information (such as location, age group, or interests inferred by browsing behaviour).
- Preferences you’ve shown by interacting with ads or content.
This data helps us and our partners show you ads that are more relevant and useful to you.
3. Your Rights & Choices
You have the right to control how ads are personalised. You can manage or disable ad identifiers directly in your browser or device settings. This includes:
- Blocking or clearing cookies in your browser.
- Disabling tracking or personalised advertising options in your device’s privacy settings.
- Adjusting browser settings to prevent third-party cookies or tracking scripts.
If you choose to disable ad identifiers, ads will still appear but they may be less relevant to your interests.
4. Data Sharing
We do not sell your personal information. However, we may share limited information with advertising partners (such as Google) to serve personalised ads. All third-party partners are required to comply with relevant privacy and data protection laws.
5. Non-Personalised Ads
If you disable ad identifiers or opt out of tracking, you will still see ads on OCE News, but they will be based on general factors such as the content of the page you are viewing, rather than your browsing behaviour.
6. Updates to Policy
We may update this Advertising & Data Policy from time to time. Continued use of our site means you agree to the updated terms. Please review this policy regularly for changes.
