Privacy Policy

Last updated: September 4, 2026

1. Who we are

PineCast TV ("we", "us") operates this website. This policy explains what data we collect, why, and the choices you have.

2. Data we collect

• Usage data — pages viewed, approximate country, device and browser type, referrer and how long you engage with content. Our first-party analytics uses a random identifier stored in a cookie; we do not store your IP address as an identifier.
• Contact & comments — the name, email and message you submit voluntarily.
• Cookie preferences — your consent choices.

3. Google products we use

We use Google Analytics 4 to understand how the site is used, and Google AdSense to display advertising. Google and its partners use cookies and similar technologies to serve ads based on your visits to this and other websites, and to measure ad performance. You can opt out of personalised advertising at Google Ads Settings. See how Google uses information from sites that use its services: policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites. Third-party ad vendors may also use cookies as described in our Cookie Policy.

4. Consent

Where required by law (for example in the EEA, UK and Switzerland) we ask for your consent before setting analytics or advertising cookies, and we honour Google Consent Mode. You can change or withdraw consent at any time via the cookie preferences link in the footer.

5. Legal bases & retention

We process data on the basis of consent (analytics/advertising cookies), legitimate interest (security, fraud prevention, basic aggregate statistics) and contract (responding to your messages). Raw analytics data is deleted or anonymised according to our retention schedule; aggregated statistics contain no personal data.

6. Your rights

Depending on your location you may have the right to access, correct, delete or restrict processing of your data, and to object or withdraw consent. Contact us via the contact page to exercise these rights.

7. Security

We use encryption, access controls and logging to protect the site and your data.

8. Children

This site is not directed at children under 13 and we do not knowingly collect their data.

9. Changes

We may update this policy; the date above shows the latest revision.
