16. Children’s Privacy
SwipeUp.in is intended for a general audience and is not directed specifically at children.
We do not knowingly request children to provide unnecessary personal information for access to ordinary editorial content.
Where applicable law requires specific protections for children’s personal data, SwipeUp will follow those requirements.
If you believe that personal information relating to a child has been provided to us in circumstances where it should not have been collected, please contact us.
17. International Processing
Although SwipeUp is operated from India, some third-party providers used for hosting, analytics, advertising, communication, security, or other technical services may process information in countries outside India.
Where this occurs, the information may be subject to the laws and privacy practices of the relevant service providers and jurisdictions.
SwipeUp will take reasonable steps consistent with applicable law and the nature of the services involved.
18. Publicly Available and Editorial Information
SwipeUp may report on information that is already lawfully available through public sources, including government announcements, public records, official statements, company announcements, court proceedings, research publications, and other publicly accessible sources.
The publication of information in an article does not necessarily mean that SwipeUp collected that information directly from the individual concerned.
Information received through journalistic, editorial, research, verification, interview, or reporting activities may be handled differently from information collected through ordinary website features, subject to applicable law.
