Privacy Policy
Last updated: [November 2025]
This page sets out what personal information BNB Price Prediction collects when you visit bnbpriceprediction.com (the site), what we do with that information once we have it, who else might see it, and what you can do about it. We’ve done our best to write it in everyday language rather than the kind of dense legal prose people usually skim past. If anything is unclear, drop us a line at [mail@bnbpriceprediction.com] and we’ll happily explain.
By using the site you’re confirming that you’ve read this policy and you’re comfortable with how we handle data. If you’re not comfortable with it, the cleanest move is to stop using the site.
1. Who we are and who’s responsible for your data
BNB Price Prediction is an independent online publication covering BNB and the BNB Chain ecosystem, along with the wider cryptocurrency market. The company behind the site is based in the United Arab Emirates.
For the purposes of the UAE’s Federal Decree-Law No. 45 of 2021 on the Protection of Personal Data (the “UAE PDPL”) — and, where it applies to you as a visitor from those regions, the UK and EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) — we act as the “data controller” for the personal information described in this policy. That just means we’re the ones who decide what gets collected and what it gets used for.
You can reach us at [mail@bnbpriceprediction.com] for anything related to your privacy or the data we hold about you.
2. The short version
If you don’t have time for the full document, here’s the gist:
- We don’t sell your personal data. Full stop.
- We collect the minimum we need to run the site, send our newsletter (if you’ve signed up for it), and understand which articles are actually getting read.
- Cookies and similar tracking technologies are used for analytics and advertising. You can decline non-essential ones and the site still works perfectly well.
- Some data passes through third-party services we rely on — hosting, analytics, email, ad networks — each with its own privacy practices.
- You have rights under UAE law (and, if you’re in the UK or EU, under GDPR) to access, correct, and delete data we hold about you.
The rest of this document is the detail behind that summary.
3. What information we collect
The data we collect falls into three broad groups.
Information you give us directly
This is the data you actively choose to share with us. For example:
- Newsletter signups: your email address, optionally your first name, when you subscribe to our newsletter or any email list we run.
- Comments: if commenting is enabled, the name, email address, and any other details you fill into the comment form.
- Contact emails: your name, email address, and the contents of any message you send us.
- Tips, pitches, or guest posts: any contact details and content you send if you’re submitting a story, guest article, or feedback.
Information we collect automatically
This is the standard background data that gets gathered just because you’ve visited a website:
- IP address (often partially masked or anonymised by our analytics setup)
- Approximate location derived from your IP — usually country or city level, not precise
- Browser type and version
- Operating system and device type
- Pages you visited, time spent on each, scroll depth, where you came from (the referrer)
- Timestamps of your activity on the site
- Interactions with the site — clicks on internal links, outbound links, affiliate buttons, and so on
Information from third parties
Occasionally we may receive information about you from a third party — a social network if you share our content, or an advertising partner serving you ads through our network. We only use that data if we have a lawful basis to.
4. Why we use your data, and the legal basis for using it
Under the UAE PDPL (and GDPR, where it applies to you), we need a “lawful basis” for every kind of processing we do. Here’s how the main activities break down.
| What we do | Why | Lawful basis |
|---|---|---|
| Send the newsletter | To deliver the emails you signed up for | Consent |
| Reply to your emails | To respond to your enquiry or request | Consent / legitimate interest |
| Site analytics | To understand which articles work, fix problems, and improve the site | Consent (where required) / legitimate interest |
| Serve ads and measure them | To fund the site through advertising | Consent |
| Display and moderate comments | To run discussion under articles | Consent / legitimate interest |
| Security, server logs, abuse prevention | To keep the site safe from attacks, scraping, and spam | Legitimate interest |
| Meet legal obligations | For tax, accounting, regulatory record-keeping, or lawful requests from UAE or other authorities | Legal obligation |
If we ever want to use your data for something materially different from what’s above, we’ll let you know first and, where required, ask you to consent.
5. Cookies and similar technologies
Like most websites, we use cookies — small text files saved by your browser — along with similar technologies like pixels, local storage, and tags. They split into roughly four groups:
- Strictly necessary cookies: the ones the site can’t run without (for example, remembering your cookie preferences). These don’t require consent because they’re essential to the basic service.
- Analytics cookies: these tell us how visitors actually use the site. Usually Google Analytics or a similar tool.
- Advertising cookies: if we run ads, our ad partners may use cookies to choose what ads you see, cap how often you see them, and measure their performance.
- Functional cookies: for remembering small preferences like language, dark mode, or whether you’ve dismissed a banner.
The first time you visit you’ll see a cookie banner asking what you’re happy with. You can change your mind any time using the cookie settings link in our footer, or by clearing cookies in your browser. Declining non-essential cookies won’t break the site — you’ll just see less relevant ads and we’ll have less data on what to improve.
For the detailed cookie-by-cookie list, see Cookie Policy or check the cookie consent banner itself.
6. Third-party services we use
We don’t build everything in-house. Running the site relies on a number of outside tools, and some of them process your data on our behalf. The main ones tend to be:
- Hosting: our web host stores the site’s files and keeps standard server logs, which include IP addresses.
- Analytics: a web analytics tool (typically Google Analytics, or a privacy-focused alternative like Plausible or Fathom) to understand site usage at an aggregate level.
- Newsletter platform: a service like Mailchimp, ConvertKit, MailerLite, or similar to manage subscriber lists and send out emails.
- Advertising network: if we run programmatic ads, networks like Google AdSense, Ezoic, or Mediavine serve them and may use cookies as described above.
- Comment system: WordPress’s native comments, or a third-party tool like Disqus, may handle the data attached to comments.
- Embedded content: when we embed a tweet, YouTube video, TradingView chart, or similar, those platforms may set their own cookies and collect data on visitors who interact with the embed.
- Affiliate tracking: when you click an affiliate link, the destination service typically sets cookies so we get credited for the referral.
Each of these has its own privacy policy and handles data according to its own rules. We choose providers we consider reputable, but what they do with data once they have it is largely their territory, not ours.
If you’d like the current list of specific services in use, drop us an email and we’ll give you the up-to-date picture.
7. International data transfers
Most of the third parties we rely on — particularly analytics, email, and ad providers — are based outside the UAE, typically in the United States or the European Union. That means your personal data may be transferred to and processed in those countries.
Under the UAE PDPL, personal data can be transferred outside the UAE either to countries with an adequate level of protection (as determined by the UAE Data Office), or under appropriate safeguards such as contractual commitments and binding corporate rules. Where the destination doesn’t have a formal adequacy decision, we rely on standard contractual safeguards offered by the provider, on the visitor’s explicit consent, or on other lawful grounds available under UAE law.
For data covered by UK or EU GDPR, we rely on legally recognised transfer mechanisms — typically the EU Standard Contractual Clauses, the UK International Data Transfer Agreement or Addendum, or equivalent safeguards offered by the destination provider.
8. How long we keep your data
We don’t keep data forever. Rough guide:
- Newsletter subscribers: until you unsubscribe, or until we close the list down. Long-inactive subscribers may be cleaned out periodically.
- Comments: for as long as the article they’re attached to stays published, unless you ask us to remove yours.
- Contact emails: for as long as we reasonably need to handle your message, plus a short buffer in case it comes back up.
- Analytics data: typically retained for 14 months or less in the analytics tool itself. Aggregated, non-identifying data may be kept indefinitely.
- Server logs: usually a few weeks, longer if needed for security or troubleshooting.
Where UAE law (for example, tax, accounting, or commercial records requirements) makes us keep certain records for longer, we’ll do that. Once data is no longer needed, we delete or anonymise it.
9. Your rights
You have a set of rights over the personal data we hold about you. Under the UAE PDPL — and, where it applies to you, UK or EU GDPR — you can:
- Access your personal data and ask for a copy of it.
- Correct data that’s wrong, out of date, or incomplete.
- Delete your data, within what the law allows (some things may have to be kept for legal or accounting reasons).
- Restrict or object to certain types of processing, particularly direct marketing or processing based on legitimate interest.
- Data portability — receive your data in a structured, commonly used format so you can move it elsewhere.
- Withdraw consent at any time where we’re relying on consent (the simplest example is unsubscribing from the newsletter).
- Complain to a data protection authority. In the UAE, that’s the UAE Data Office. If you’re based in the DIFC or ADGM free zones, separate regimes apply (the DIFC Commissioner of Data Protection or the ADGM Office of Data Protection respectively). If you’re in the UK or the EU, you can complain to the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO) or your local supervisory authority.
To exercise any of these rights, email us at [mail@bnbpriceprediction.com]. We’ll respond within the timeframes set by whichever law applies to you (generally within 30 days). We may need to verify your identity first so we don’t hand your data to the wrong person.
10. Children
The site isn’t aimed at children, and we don’t knowingly collect data from anyone under 18 (or under 16 if you’re visiting from a jurisdiction with a lower threshold for children’s data, such as parts of the EU). If you’re a parent or guardian and you think your child has shared personal data with us, get in touch and we’ll delete it.
11. Security
We take reasonable technical and organisational steps to protect your data — secure hosting, HTTPS encryption, restricted admin access, regular software updates, and the rest. That said, no website is 100% secure, and we can’t guarantee that data transmitted over the internet will never be intercepted. You share information with us at your own risk, with the comfort that we’re putting in the work on our end.
If we ever experience a personal data breach that’s likely to put your rights and interests at risk, we’ll notify the UAE Data Office (or other competent authority, depending on where you’re located) and you, where required, within the timeframes set by law.
12. Marketing and unsubscribing
If you’ve signed up for our newsletter, we’ll send you the content you signed up for — typically a mix of new articles, market updates, and the occasional clearly-labelled sponsored mention. We don’t sell your email address, and we don’t pass it to third parties for them to market to you.
Every email we send has an unsubscribe link in the footer. One click and you’re done — no retention emails, no “are you sure?” loops. You can also email us if you’d rather we removed you manually.
13. Do Not Track and global privacy signals
Some browsers send a “Do Not Track” signal or a Global Privacy Control signal. The legal status of these signals isn’t fully settled internationally, but where our cookie consent platform supports them, we’ll honour them as a request to limit non-essential cookies. The most reliable control is still the cookie banner and the cookie settings link in our footer.
14. Linked websites
Our articles regularly link out to other websites — projects, exchanges, data providers, news sites, social media. This privacy policy covers bnbpriceprediction.com only. Once you click through to another site, you’re in their territory, with their privacy rules. We’d encourage you to read the privacy policy of any third-party site before handing over personal information there.
15. Governing law
This privacy policy is governed by the laws of the United Arab Emirates, including the UAE PDPL and its implementing regulations. Where you’re based in another jurisdiction with mandatory data protection rights — like the UK or the EU — nothing in this policy is intended to take those rights away.
16. Changes to this policy
We may update this policy from time to time — to reflect changes in the law, new tools we start using, or just to make something clearer. When we do, we’ll update the “Last updated” date at the top. If a change is significant, we’ll try to flag it more visibly, for example with a homepage notice or a mention in the newsletter.
If you keep using the site after a change is posted, that means you accept the new version.
17. Contact
Any questions about this policy, requests to exercise your rights, or anything else privacy-related — email us at [mail@bnbpriceprediction.com] and we’ll get back to you as soon as we reasonably can.
Thanks for reading, and thanks for caring enough to check.
