Privacy Policy

FakeNewsPrank.com is operated by TechBizDevs LLC ("we," "us," or "our"). This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information when you use the FakeNewsPrank.com website and services.

1. Information We Collect

Account information. If you create an account, we collect account information such as email address, username (if provided), and hashed password or authentication-linked account data (e.g., via Firebase Authentication or similar).

Uploaded photos and content. When you use the service, you may upload photos and provide prompts, names, story choices, and other text inputs. This content is used to generate parody articles and may be stored to display and host your generated articles. You represent that you have the rights and permissions necessary to upload any content you submit, including photos of others where consent is required.

Generated content. We may store the parody articles and AI-generated images created through the service so that shareable links continue to work and for operational purposes.

Payment-related data. Purchases are processed by third-party payment processors such as Stripe. We do not store full payment card numbers. We may receive and store payment-related metadata (e.g., last four digits, billing email, payment status, transaction identifiers) for support, recordkeeping, and fraud prevention.

Usage, device, and log data. We collect information about how you use the site (e.g., pages visited, features used), along with device, browser, IP address, and log data for operation, security, analytics, and abuse prevention.

Cookies and similar technologies. We use cookies and similar technologies for session management, preferences, security, and analytics as described in this policy.

2. How We Use Your Information

We use the information we collect to provide, operate, maintain, and improve the service; generate parody articles and AI-generated images; process payments and manage accounts and credits; host and display generated articles on our content domains (including randomdailynews.com); respond to support, takedown, and abuse reports; detect and prevent fraud and abuse; send service-related communications; analyze usage; and comply with law and enforce our policies.

3. Infrastructure and Service Providers

The service is operated using infrastructure and services provided by Google Cloud and Firebase. This includes:

• Hosting. Firebase Hosting and/or Google Cloud hosting/infrastructure for the website and application.

• Storage. Cloud storage (e.g., Firebase or Google Cloud storage) for user uploads and generated assets.

Payment processing is handled by third-party processors such as Stripe. These providers process data in accordance with their own policies and our agreements. We do not store full payment card numbers.

4. AI-Generated Content and Disclosure

The service uses artificial intelligence to generate parody articles and images. AI-generated outputs may be fictional, inaccurate, exaggerated, misleading, unexpected, or offensive and are intended solely for entertainment and satire. We do not guarantee the accuracy, reliability, legality, or appropriateness of AI-generated content. Users are responsible for the prompts, images, and other content they submit.

5. Generated Content Hosting and Public Accessibility

Generated parody articles may be hosted or displayed on randomdailynews.com and may be accessible to anyone with the link. We may store generated articles so that shareable links continue to work. You represent that you have the rights and permissions necessary for any content you upload and for our use and hosting of generated content as described in this policy.

6. Sharing and Disclosure

We may share your information with service providers (including Firebase and Google Cloud as described above, and payment processors such as Stripe) who assist in operating the service; when generated content is made accessible via shareable links as described above; when required by law or to protect rights, users, or the public; and in connection with a merger, acquisition, or similar business transaction. We do not sell your personal information to third parties for their own direct marketing purposes.

7. Data Retention and Removal

We retain account, transaction, and usage data for as long as your account is active or as needed to provide the service. TechBizDevs LLC may store generated articles so that links continue to work, and may delete, restrict, or remove content in response to takedown requests, abuse concerns, legal requests, policy violations, or operational needs. We may retain certain data longer where required by law or for legitimate purposes such as fraud prevention, dispute resolution, and enforcement.
