Effective / last updated: 3 September 2026

Operator

FirstPublisher is owned and operated by Newsic Network Private Limited. This policy explains how cookies and browser storage may be used when visiting public FirstPublisher pages or signing in to the platform.

Essential sessions

Authentication sessions keep authorised users signed in and protect account operations. Disabling essential cookies may prevent the application from working.

Security

Session identifiers, CSRF state and security controls may rely on browser storage or cookies.

Preference storage

User-interface preferences such as Guided Mode, dismissed notices or local convenience settings may be stored in the browser so the workspace behaves consistently for that user.

Demo and tour storage

The editable session demo may use browser storage or session state to remember whether the guided tour should start or whether a user has restarted it. Demo changes are isolated from live records and are cleared when the demo session ends.

Analytics

Public press release analytics are designed to use privacy-conscious identifiers where possible. If non-essential cookie-based analytics are introduced, the policy and consent controls should be updated before activation in jurisdictions requiring consent.

Third-party services

Payment, security, CAPTCHA, email, analytics or distribution providers may set their own cookies or browser storage where their tools are embedded or required. Their use is governed by their own policies as well as the configuration chosen by FirstPublisher.

Managing cookies

Most browsers allow users to delete or block cookies. Blocking essential cookies may prevent login, CSRF protection, billing actions, support tickets and other authenticated features from working correctly.
