What data we process
- Account & sign-in data: on registration we process your email address and sign-in data via our authentication provider Clerk.
- Payment data: subscriptions and payments are handled via Stripe. Card details are processed solely by Stripe; we never receive full card data.
- Server logs: on access, technically necessary data (IP address, timestamp, page requested) is processed by our hosting provider Vercel.
Purpose and legal basis
We process data to provide the Service, to perform the contract (subscription) and to ensure security and operation. The legal basis is performance of the contract and our legitimate interest in secure operation.
Processors / third parties
- Clerk (authentication)
- Stripe (payments)
- Vercel (hosting & operation)
These providers may process data outside Switzerland/the EU; appropriate contractual and protective mechanisms are in place.
News content
The headlines shown come from third-party sources and generally contain no personal data about you. When you click an item you are taken to the original source, whose privacy terms then apply.
Cookies
We only use cookies that are strictly necessary to operate the Service and keep you signed in (set by Clerk). We do not use advertising or tracking cookies, so no cookie banner is required.
Your rights
You have the right to access, rectify, erase and restrict the processing of your data. To exercise them, contact info@tickwire.news.
Retention
Account data is stored for as long as your account exists. After deletion of the account, data is removed unless statutory retention obligations apply.
