Third-Party Data Sharing
Transparency regarding how Aevum News discloses information to external service providers, partners, and advertisers.
7.1 Overview & Principles
At Aevum News, we do not sell your personal data to data brokers or marketing firms. However, to provide our journalism services, deliver content, and measure engagement, we work with carefully vetted third-party service providers. We share data with these entities only to the extent necessary to perform their contracted services.
Data Minimization Commitment
We adhere to the principle of data minimization. We only share specific data points required for a third party's function, never your full data profile unless explicitly consented.
7.2 Categories of Recipients
We categorize third-party recipients based on their relationship to Aevum News and the purpose of data processing:
🛠️ Essential Service Providers
Infrastructure partners required to operate our platform, including cloud hosting, CDNs, email delivery services, and authentication providers. Data sharing is necessary for service performance.
📊 Analytics & Measurement
Tools that help us understand reader behavior, improve content quality, and debug technical issues. These partners may process anonymized or pseudonymized usage data.
📢 Advertising & Monetization
Ad networks and demand-side platforms that help fund our journalism. We share limited data for contextual advertising and, where consented, personalized ad delivery.

Aevum News operates globally. Some third-party providers may process data outside your country of residence, including in the United States, European Union, and other jurisdictions. When transfers occur to regions without adequacy decisions, we implement Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) and additional technical safeguards to ensure your data remains protected to the standards of this policy.
If you reside in the EEA, UK, or Switzerland, you have the right to object to such transfers based on specific grounds. Please contact our Data Protection Officer for more details.
7.6 Legal Disclosures
We may disclose your information to third parties if required by law, regulation, legal process, or governmental request. We endeavor to notify you of such requests unless prohibited by law or court order, and we push back against overbroad demands to protect journalistic sources and reader privacy.
