At Onyx (“we,” “our,” “us”), your privacy is important to us. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and protect your personal information when you visit or interact with our website (the “Website”). By using our Website, you agree to the practices described in this policy.
1. Information We Collect
We may collect the following types of information:
1.1 Personal Information
- Name
- Email address
- Any information you voluntarily provide when subscribing to newsletters, submitting comments, or contacting us
1.2 Non-Personal Information
- IP address
- Browser type and version
- Device type and operating system
- Pages visited and duration of visits
- Referring website or search engine
This information is collected automatically through cookies, web analytics tools, or server logs.
When you create an account, we store your username, display name, email address, password hash and email-verification status. We also store the articles you save, the topics and startup listings you follow, and your newsletter language, frequency, scope and subscription choice. These preferences are associated with your account in WordPress; they are not public lists. We use them to operate your account and the features you choose. Verification, password-reset and essential account messages are separate from optional newsletters.
We store the comments and listing suggestions you submit, their association with your account, review status and editorial feedback. Approved comments or listings, including the public display name shown with them, can be read by other visitors. Pending and draft listing submissions are available to their contributor and authorised editors. WordPress records technical information with comments, including IP address and browser information, for moderation and security. Do not include private information in content intended for publication.
2. How We Use Your Information
We use the information we collect to:
- Provide, operate, and maintain the Website
- Respond to your inquiries or requests
- Send newsletters or promotional content if you have opted in
- Improve the Website, content, and user experience
- Analyze trends and traffic to understand how the Website is used
- Detect, prevent, and address technical issues or security threats
3. Cookies and Tracking Technologies
We use cookies and similar technologies to enhance your experience on our Website. Cookies are small files stored on your device that help us:
- Remember your preferences
- Analyze usage patterns
- Serve relevant content and ads
You can manage or disable cookies in your browser settings, but this may affect some Website features.
Google Analytics measures visits only after you allow analytics. You can withdraw permission using “Cookie preferences” in the footer. Declining analytics does not affect your Onyx account or access to articles. See our Cookie Policy for how your choice is remembered.
4. Sharing Your Information
We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information to third parties. We may share your information in the following circumstances:
- With service providers who help us operate the Website (e.g., hosting, email services)
- When required by law or legal process
- To protect our rights, safety, or property, or that of our users
Newsletter subscription is optional and requires a separate choice in your account. We record that choice and its consent time. When newsletter delivery is activated, opted-in, verified subscriber details and audience preferences are sent to Sender to manage subscription groups and deliver the selected digest. You can change your preferences in your account or use the unsubscribe link in an email. Unsubscribing does not delete your Onyx account. Our hosting provider Nindohost supports website storage and account-email delivery. Security and spam-protection services may process technical request or comment data to protect the site. Google Analytics is used to measure website visits. These providers process data according to their own service arrangements and privacy notices.
5. Third-Party Links
The Website may contain links to third-party websites. We are not responsible for the privacy practices or content of these external sites. We encourage you to review the privacy policies of any third-party websites you visit.
6. Data Security
We implement reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect your personal information. However, no method of transmission over the Internet or electronic storage is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
7. Your Rights
You can update your display name and email address, remove saved articles or follows, and change newsletter preferences from your account. Contact support@onyx.ma to request access to, correction of, or deletion of account information, or to discuss a published contribution. Account information and preferences remain stored while the account exists. Published contributions may need separate review when an account is removed. We may retain limited records where needed for security, dispute handling or applicable obligations.
8. Children’s Privacy
The Website is not intended for children under 13 years old. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If we become aware that we have collected information from a child under 13, we will take steps to delete it.
9. Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The “Last Updated” date will be revised accordingly. Continued use of the Website constitutes acceptance of any changes.
