  • Nature of the information
  • Purpose of processing

13. Withdrawal of Consent

Where GNM processes personal data on the basis of consent, you may withdraw that consent through the applicable mechanism.

Withdrawal will not affect processing that was lawfully carried out before withdrawal.

Some information may continue to be processed where required or permitted by law.

14. Children’s Privacy

GNM will apply the requirements applicable to children’s personal data under Indian law.

We do not intentionally seek unnecessary personal information from children.

Where applicable law requires additional safeguards or parental/guardian consent, GNM will implement the applicable requirements.

15. External Links

GNM may contain links to third-party websites, applications, social-media platforms or other services.

Those services are governed by their own terms and privacy policies.

GNM is not responsible for the privacy practices of third-party services that it does not control.

Where personal data is transferred, stored or processed outside India, GNM will comply with applicable Indian legal requirements relating to such processing.

18. Data Security Incidents

If GNM becomes aware of a personal-data breach, we will take appropriate steps required under applicable law, including applicable notification, mitigation and remedial measures.

The DPDP Rules, 2025 contain prescribed security and personal-data breach requirements, subject to their applicable commencement provisions.

19. Journalism and Editorial Content

GNM is a digital publisher of news and current-affairs content.

GNM’s editorial operations are subject to the applicable legal and regulatory framework governing digital news publishers, including the applicable Code of Ethics and grievance-redressal framework under Part III of the IT Rules, 2021. MIB identifies a three-tier mechanism consisting of publisher-level self-regulation, a Level-II self-regulating body and the Central Government oversight mechanism.

This Privacy Policy should therefore be read together with GNM’s:
