Slow News Co. Privacy Policy

Effective 2026-08-15

This privacy policy applies to the Slow News Co. app (hereby referred to as “Application”) for mobile devices, and to the slownews.co website, both created by Majestical Roof LLC (hereby referred to as “Service Provider”) as a Commercial service. This service is intended for use “AS IS”.

Information Collection and Use

The Application collects information when you download and use it. This information may include information such as

The Application does not gather precise information about the location of your mobile device.

The Application may collect your device’s location or may derive your location from your device’s Internet Protocol address (e.g. IP address), which helps the Service Provider determine your approximate geographical location and make use of in below ways:

The Service Provider may use the information you provided to contact you from time to time to provide you with important information, required notices and marketing promotions.

For a better experience, while using the Application, the Service Provider may require you to provide us with certain personally identifiable information, including but not limited to email, location. The information that the Service Provider request will be retained by them and used as described in this privacy policy.

If you sign up for the Slow News Co. email newsletter on our website, we collect your email address for the sole purpose of sending you that newsletter. You may unsubscribe at any time using the link included in every email.

Analytics and Attribution Consent

Where required by law (including for users in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, and Switzerland), the Application will ask for your consent before enabling analytics (Mixpanel) or cross-app attribution (AppsFlyer) tracking. You can grant or withdraw this consent at any time from the Application’s Settings screen. Declining or withdrawing consent does not affect your ability to use the Application’s core features. Apple’s App Tracking Transparency prompt, where shown, governs AppsFlyer specifically and is separate from this in-app consent choice.

Our website (slownews.co) uses Umami, a cookie-free analytics service, to understand aggregate visitor traffic. Umami does not use cookies and does not collect personally identifiable information, so no separate consent is required for it. The website also loads a Google Ads tag for conversion measurement; by default, no advertising or analytics cookies are set by this tag and no data is used for ad personalization, unless and until we introduce an opt-in consent mechanism for it.

Interactions with Third Party Sites

Some web content displayed in this app is provided by third parties. These third party sites may use cookies or tracking technologies acoording to their own policies.

Third Party Access

Only aggregated, anonymized data is periodically transmitted to external services to aid the Service Provider in improving the Application and their service. The Service Provider may share your information with third parties in the ways that are described in this privacy statement.

Please note that the Application and website utilize third-party services that have their own Privacy Policy about handling data. Below are the links to the Privacy Policy of the third-party service providers used by the Application and website:
