Bangladesh enacted its first comprehensive data-protection law this year — the Personal Data Protection Act, 2026, which was originally issued as an ordinance in late 2025 before Parliament finalized it as permanent legislation in April 2026, with a body called the National Data Management Authority as regulator. I’ve grounded this policy in that framework (rather than a generic Western template) so it actually reflects your legal context — see the note at the end, though, since this is still a new and evolving area of law.

This Privacy Policy explains how Bogra Express (“we,” “us,” “our”), a news platform published by Megabyte Media and based in Bogura, Bangladesh, collects, uses, and protects information when you visit https://bograexpress.com/ (the “Site”).

2. How We Use Your Information
We use collected information to operate and improve the Site, respond to inquiries and news tips, send newsletters (only to subscribers), analyze readership trends, maintain security, and meet legal obligations. We process personal data only where we have a lawful basis to do so — your consent, a legitimate operating purpose, or a legal requirement.
3. Cookies and Tracking Technologies
We use cookies to remember preferences, measure traffic, and support analytics and advertising. You can manage or disable cookies in your browser settings, though some site features may not work properly without them. Where required by law, we will seek your consent before setting non-essential cookies.

5. Data Retention
We keep personal data only as long as necessary for the purposes described here, or as required by Bangladeshi law, and dispose of it securely afterward.
6. Data Security
We use reasonable technical and organizational safeguards to protect your data against unauthorized access, loss, or misuse. No online system is 100% secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute protection.
7. Your Rights Under Bangladesh’s Data Protection Law
Under the Personal Data Protection Act, 2026, you have the right to:
- Access the personal data we hold about you
- Correct inaccurate or incomplete data
- Withdraw consent to processing at any time

To exercise these rights, contact us using the details in Section 11. We will respond within the timeframe required by law.
8. Children’s Privacy
Our Site is not directed at children under 18, and we do not knowingly collect their personal data without appropriate parental or guardian consent. Consistent with Bangladeshi law, we do not use children’s data for profiling or targeted advertising. If you believe a child has shared personal data with us improperly, contact us so we can remove it.
9. Cross-Border Data Transfers
Where data is processed or stored outside Bangladesh (e.g., via cloud hosting or analytics tools), we take reasonable steps to keep it protected in line with this Policy and applicable law.
10. Third-Party Links
Our Site may link to external websites. We aren’t responsible for their content or privacy practices, and encourage you to review their policies separately.
