Privacy Policy
Last updated: June 3, 2026
The Pakistan Ledger is committed to protecting your privacy. This policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and your rights as a reader.
1. What Data We Collect
We collect two types of data:
- Email addresses — if you sign up for The Pakistan Ledger Brief newsletter, we collect your email address.
- Anonymous analytics data — we use Google Analytics (or an equivalent service) to collect anonymous information about how readers use our site, including page views, time on page, and traffic sources (for example, whether you arrived via a search engine or a social media link). This data does not identify you personally.
2. How We Use Your Data
We use the data we collect for the following purposes only:
- Email addresses are used solely to send you The Pakistan Ledger Brief newsletter. We will never use your email address to contact you for any other purpose without your explicit consent.
- Analytics data is used to understand how readers engage with our content — which topics are most read, where our audience comes from, and how we can improve the site. This helps us produce better journalism.
We do not sell, rent, or share your personal data with third parties for any commercial purpose. Your information stays with The Pakistan Ledger.
3. Newsletter Unsubscribe
You can unsubscribe from The Pakistan Ledger Brief at any time. Every newsletter email we send includes an unsubscribe link at the bottom. Click it and you will be removed from our mailing list immediately. You can also contact us at editor@pakistanledger.org to request removal.
4. Cookies
Our site uses standard analytics cookies. These are small text files placed on your device that help us understand how readers navigate the site. The cookies we use do not collect personally identifiable information.
You can disable cookies at any time through your browser settings. Most browsers allow you to block or delete cookies via their privacy or security settings. Please note that disabling cookies may affect the functionality of some websites you visit.
5. Contact
If you have any questions about this privacy policy or how your data is handled, please contact our editor at editor@pakistanledger.org. We will respond to all privacy-related enquiries within five business days.
6. Changes to This Policy
We may update this privacy policy from time to time. Any changes will be published on this page with an updated date at the top. We encourage you to review this page periodically.
