1. Who We Are

This Privacy Policy applies to Soojz.com and all related sites, including:

These sites are owned and operated by Soojz, an Australian-based educational and financial insights platform.
Our goal is to provide market analysis, educational resources, and insights into stocks, ETFs, and trading strategies.

Our website address is: https://today.soojz.com.


2. Comments

When visitors leave comments on any of our sites, we collect the data shown in the comments form, as well as the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to help detect spam and maintain security.

An anonymized string (hash) created from your email address may be provided to the Gravatar service to verify if you are using it. The Gravatar service privacy policy is available at: https://automattic.com/privacy/.
After approval of your comment, your profile picture becomes visible to the public in the context of your comment.


3. Media

If you upload images to the website, please avoid uploading images with embedded location data (EXIF GPS).
Visitors to the website can download and extract location data from images published on the site.
We are not responsible for any inadvertent sharing of such metadata.


4. Cookies

Cookies help us enhance user experience and remember preferences.
If you leave a comment on our site, you may choose to save your name, email address, and website in cookies.
These cookies are for convenience and last one year.

If you visit our login page, a temporary cookie is created to test whether your browser accepts cookies.
This cookie contains no personal data and is discarded once the browser is closed.

When you log in, several cookies are created to save your login information and screen display preferences:

  • Login cookies last for two days.
  • Screen options cookies last for one year.
  • Selecting “Remember Me” will keep your login active for two weeks.
  • Logging out removes all login cookies.

If you edit or publish an article, an additional cookie will be stored in your browser.
This cookie contains no personal data and simply records the post ID of the article you edited. It expires after one day.


5. Embedded Content from Other Websites

Articles on our sites may include embedded content (e.g., videos, images, articles, charts, etc.).
Embedded content behaves the same way as if the visitor had visited the external website directly.

These external sites may collect data about you, use cookies, track your interactions, and monitor your engagement with embedded media — especially if you are logged in to that external site.
We are not responsible for the data practices of third-party websites.


6. Who We Share Your Data With

We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal data.
However, certain services may require limited data sharing for operational or security purposes.

If you request a password reset, your IP address will be included in the reset email for security verification.
We may also share limited data with third-party spam detection services or analytics providers (e.g., Google Analytics) to improve website performance.


7. How Long We Retain Your Data

  • Comments: Retained indefinitely to recognize and approve follow-up comments automatically.
  • User Profiles: For registered users (if any), personal information provided in their profile is stored securely. Users can view, edit, or delete their personal data at any time (except username changes).
  • Website Administrators: Have the ability to view and edit registered user information for maintenance and compliance.

8. What Rights You Have Over Your Data

If you have an account or have left comments, you can request an exported file of the personal data we hold about you, including any data you’ve provided.
You may also request the erasure of any personal data we hold about you, except data required for administrative, legal, or security purposes.

To make a data request, please email us at soojzone@gmail.com.


9. Where Your Data Is Sent

Visitor comments and form submissions may be checked through an automated spam detection service.
We may also use third-party analytics tools to understand user engagement patterns — this data is anonymized whenever possible.


10. Data Protection and Security

We take the protection of your personal information seriously.
Reasonable technical, administrative, and physical safeguards are in place to prevent unauthorized access, misuse, or disclosure of your data.
However, no online platform can guarantee absolute security.


11. Analytics and Advertising

Our sites may use analytics services such as Google Analytics or similar tools to understand visitor behavior.
We may also use non-personalized advertising through platforms like Google AdSense or affiliate networks.
These tools may collect anonymous data such as browser type, operating system, and user interaction metrics.


12. Children’s Privacy

Our websites are not intended for children under the age of 13.
We do not knowingly collect or store personal data from children.
If you believe your child has provided us with personal data, please contact us immediately for deletion.


13. Links to External Websites

Our sites may contain links to external websites or third-party content.
We are not responsible for the privacy policies, content, or practices of these external sites.
Users are encouraged to review the privacy policies of any third-party websites they visit.


14. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy periodically to reflect operational, legal, or regulatory changes.
Updates will be posted on this page with a revised “Last Updated” date.
Continued use of our websites after any change constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
