Privacy Policy

Last updated: March 12, 2026

Overview

Next Disruption (nextdisruption.in) respects your privacy. This policy explains what data we collect, why, and how we handle it.

What Data We Collect

Analytics Data

We use standard analytics tools (such as Jetpack Stats and/or Google Analytics) to understand how visitors use the site. This may include:

  • Pages visited and time spent
  • Referring websites
  • Browser type and device information
  • Approximate geographic location (country/city level)

This data is collected in aggregate and does not personally identify you.

Cookies

This site uses cookies — small text files stored on your device — to improve your browsing experience and enable analytics. Most browsers allow you to control cookies through their settings. Disabling cookies may affect site functionality.

Comments

If you leave a comment on the blog, we collect the data shown in the comment form (name, email, website) along with your IP address and browser user agent string to help detect spam.

Email / Newsletter

If we offer an email subscription in the future, your email address will only be used to send you blog updates. You can unsubscribe at any time. We will never sell or share your email with third parties.

How We Use Your Data

  • To understand what content resonates with readers
  • To improve the website experience
  • To detect and prevent spam
  • To respond to comments or enquiries

Third-Party Services

This site is hosted on WordPress.com, which has its own privacy policy. We may also use services like Jetpack, Google Analytics, or social sharing plugins, each governed by their own privacy policies.

Data Retention

Analytics data is retained as long as the analytics service stores it (typically 26 months for Google Analytics). Comment data is retained indefinitely unless you request deletion.

Your Rights

You have the right to:

  • Request access to personal data we hold about you
  • Request deletion of your data (e.g., comments)
  • Opt out of analytics tracking by using browser-level tools or extensions
