NXBits Payments News is a public payment-industry news and analysis site. The site is powered by DigiFinware and is intended to publish operator-focused coverage of payment rails, regulation, fraud controls, merchant acquiring, stablecoins, B2B payments and settlement infrastructure.
This Privacy Policy explains what information may be processed when you visit the site, read articles, follow source links, contact us, or interact with publication features that may be enabled from time to time. We aim to collect only the information needed to operate, secure and improve the publication.
Who to contact
For all privacy questions, publication inquiries, corrections, source material, legal notices, data requests or other correspondence, email info@nxbits.com.
Information we may process
Technical and server information. When you visit the site, basic technical records may be created by the web server, Apache reverse proxy, Ghost CMS, security tools, hosting provider or related infrastructure. These records may include IP address, browser and device information, requested URL, referring URL, timestamps, response codes and diagnostic information.
Correspondence information. If you email us, submit source material, request a correction, ask a question or otherwise contact the publication, we may process the email address, name, organisation, message content, attachments and any other information you choose to provide.
Subscription or membership information. If newsletter, membership, comment, account or subscription features are enabled in the future, we may process information needed to provide those features, such as email address, sign-up time, delivery status, preferences and unsubscribe status.
Editorial source information. If you send us story tips, interview notes, market observations or source material, we may retain enough information to assess credibility, verify facts, follow up, maintain an editorial record and handle corrections. Please do not send confidential, regulated, personal, insider or restricted information unless you are authorised to share it.
Payment information. NXBits Payments News is a payment-industry publication, not a payment gateway or financial service. We do not intentionally collect payment card data or process payments through this news site.
How we use information
We may use information to operate and secure the website, diagnose errors, prevent misuse, respond to emails, review corrections, evaluate story tips, publish and maintain editorial content, measure aggregate site performance, manage compliance obligations, preserve records and protect the rights, safety and integrity of the publication.
Where privacy laws require a legal basis, the basis may include consent, legitimate interests in operating and securing the publication, responding to your request, compliance with legal obligations, or another lawful basis available under applicable law.
Cookies and similar technologies
The site may use cookies or similar technologies that are necessary for Ghost CMS, security, session management, administrative access, preferences or basic site operation. If analytics or measurement tools are used, they should be configured to support aggregate site understanding rather than invasive profiling.
You can control cookies through your browser settings. Blocking some cookies may affect site features, especially if membership, comments, subscriptions or account-based functionality is later enabled.
Analytics and advertising
At present, this site is operated as a publication and does not sell personal information. If advertising, sponsorship measurement, newsletter analytics or third-party analytics are introduced, this policy should be updated to describe those tools and any choices available to readers.
When information may be shared
We may share information with service providers that help operate the website, hosting, security, backups, email, CMS functionality, analytics, professional advice or legal compliance. We may also disclose information if required by law, court order, regulator request, security investigation or to protect the publication, readers, sources or other parties.
We do not sell reader personal information. We also do not ask readers to provide unnecessary sensitive personal information through the public site.
External links and embedded sources
Articles often link to companies, regulators, press releases, news sources, product pages and other third-party websites. Those websites are controlled by their own operators and are governed by their own privacy policies, cookie practices and terms. We are not responsible for external sites once you leave NXBits Payments News.
Retention
Server logs and diagnostic records are retained for as long as reasonably needed for security, reliability, troubleshooting and operational records. Correspondence, corrections and editorial source material may be retained as long as needed to respond, verify facts, maintain publication records, resolve disputes, comply with law or protect legitimate editorial interests.
If you ask us to delete information, we will review the request and respond where required by applicable law. Some records may need to be retained for security, legal, archival, audit or editorial accountability reasons.
Security
We use reasonable administrative, technical and operational safeguards appropriate for a public publication site, including HTTPS, server access controls, backups and restricted administrative access. No website or transmission method is completely secure, so please avoid sending highly sensitive information through ordinary email.
Your choices and rights
Depending on where you live, you may have rights to request access, correction, deletion, restriction, portability, objection, withdrawal of consent or information about how your personal data is processed. Some rights are subject to legal limits and exceptions.
To make a request, email info@nxbits.com and include enough detail for us to identify the relevant record or interaction. We may need to verify your request before acting on it.
Children
The site is intended for payment-industry professionals, operators, founders, analysts and adult readers. It is not directed to children, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children through this publication.
International access
The site may be accessed from multiple countries, and technical processing may occur through hosting, security, email or operational service providers. By using the site or contacting us, you understand that information may be processed in locations where the publication or its service providers operate.
Changes to this policy
We may update this Privacy Policy when the publication, technology, analytics, subscriptions, legal requirements or operational practices change. The effective date above indicates the latest published version.
