Deep Tube | News (“we,” “our,” or “us”) operates https://deep.tube (the “Site”). This Privacy Policy explains, in a clear and straightforward way, what information we collect, how we use it, and the choices you have when you use the Site.

This policy applies to information collected through the Site and related services we operate (collectively, the “Service”). It does not apply to third-party websites, apps, or services that may be linked from the Site or embedded within it.

By using the Service, you also agree to our Terms of Use. For rules on acceptable use, prohibited content, and moderation standards, please review the Terms of Use.

1) Information We Collect

A. Information you provide to us

Depending on how you use the Service, we may collect:

  • Account information (if available), such as email address, username/display name, and password (passwords are stored in a protected form and are not displayed publicly)
  • Profile information you choose to add (for example, bio, avatar, or other optional details)
  • Messages you send to us (for example, support requests, tips, feedback, or inquiries)
  • Rights/removal requests (for example, DMCA notices or content removal requests), including your contact information and any information you include in the request

B. Content you submit or publish (User Submissions)

If community features are enabled, we may process content you provide, such as:

  • User-submitted posts or drafts (where enabled)
  • Video uploads or other media uploads (where enabled)
  • Comments and other community interactions (where enabled)
  • Reports, flags, or complaints submitted through the Service

Important: Any information or content you choose to publish or submit for publication may become public. Please do not submit personal, private, or sensitive information you do not want to share publicly.

C. Information collected automatically

When you visit the Site, we (and vendors that help us operate the Site) may collect technical data such as:

  • IP address and approximate location (for example, country/region)
  • Device and browser type, operating system, and language settings
  • Pages viewed, timestamps, referring/exit pages, and interaction data
  • Security-related logs (for example, login attempts and signals used to prevent abuse, spam, or misuse)

2) How We Use Information

We use information to:

  • Provide, operate, and maintain the Service (including user accounts and core site functions)
  • Publish and display content you request, including editorial content and approved community content (where applicable)
  • Moderate User Submissions and enforce our Terms of Use and policies
  • Respond to messages, support requests, and rights/removal requests
  • Improve performance, features, and user experience (including analytics and troubleshooting)
  • Detect, prevent, and address spam, fraud, security incidents, and misuse
  • Comply with applicable legal obligations and respond to lawful requests

3) Moderation, Safety, and Prohibited Content

Deep Tube | News is intended for a general audience, and User Submissions (if available) are moderated and not published automatically.

To keep the Service clean and appropriate for broad readership, we may review and use information (including submitted content, metadata, account details, and security logs) to enforce our policies. This includes taking action on content that violates our Terms of Use.

Examples of content that is strictly prohibited in User Submissions include:

  • Real-life graphic violence, gore, or shocking content
  • Animal cruelty or abuse
  • Any sexual content involving minors (including CSAM), or content that exploits or endangers minors
  • Hate, harassment, threats, incitement, or doxxing/privacy violations
  • Malware, harmful code, spam, scams, or deceptive links
  • User Submissions that promote or advertise alcohol, tobacco, nicotine/vapes, or similar products

We may decline, remove, restrict, or edit submissions for clarity/formatting and policy compliance, and we may enforce restrictions up to account suspension or termination, consistent with our Terms of Use.

Where required by law or when necessary for safety, we may preserve and share relevant information with authorities or appropriate parties.

4) Cookies and Similar Technologies

We use cookies and similar technologies for:

  • Essential functions (login/session, security, and preferences)
  • Site measurement and performance (analytics)
  • Advertising and content delivery (where applicable)

You can manage cookies through your browser settings (including blocking or deleting cookies). If you disable certain cookies, parts of the Service—such as login and account features—may not work properly.

5) Third-Party Services, Embeds, and Advertising

A. Comments and community tools

Some commenting or community features may be provided by third parties. If you use a third-party system, that provider may collect information directly from you under its own privacy policy. Your use of that system is governed by the provider’s terms and privacy practices.

B. Embedded content

Articles may include embedded content (for example, videos, images, or posts from other websites). Embedded content behaves much like visiting the third-party site directly. Those third parties may collect data about you, use cookies, and track interactions according to their own policies.

C. Advertising partners

We may display ads. Advertising providers may use cookies or similar technologies to measure ad performance and show relevant ads. We do not control how third parties collect or use data through their advertising tools. Where applicable, you may be able to manage ad personalization through your device settings, browser controls, or opt-out tools provided by ad industry programs.

6) How We Share Information

We may share information in the following circumstances:

  • Service providers: with vendors that help run the Service (hosting, security, analytics, email delivery, and similar functions), under contractual obligations appropriate to their role
  • Legal and safety: when required by law, court order, or valid legal process; or when we believe disclosure is necessary to protect the rights, safety, and security of the Service, our users, or the public
  • Business changes: if we undergo a reorganization, merger, acquisition, or sale of assets, information may be transferred as part of that transaction
  • With your direction: when you request or consent to sharing

7) Data Retention

We retain personal data only as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this policy, including operating the Service, maintaining security, enforcing policies, complying with legal obligations, and resolving disputes.

  • Account data is typically retained while your account remains active and for a reasonable period thereafter as needed for security, compliance, and operational purposes.
  • Public content you publish (such as posts or comments) may remain visible even if you later change account settings, unless it is removed or de-identified consistent with our policies and applicable law.
  • Security logs are retained for a limited period appropriate for protecting the Service and investigating abuse.

8) Data Security

We take reasonable technical and organizational measures intended to protect information. However, no online service can guarantee absolute security. You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your login credentials and for using a strong, unique password.

9) Your Choices and Rights

Account and profile controls

If you have an account, you may be able to review and update certain profile information through your account settings.
