Security Policy – DailyAxle

Last updated: October 5, 2025

At DailyAxle.com, the safety of our readers, contributors, and partners is a top priority.
We follow strict digital security practices to safeguard user data, prevent unauthorized access, and maintain the reliability of our automobile journalism platform.

1. Purpose of This Policy

This Security Policy outlines how we secure our website, servers, and data against misuse, cyber threats, or unauthorized access.
It covers our internal controls, monitoring procedures, and user responsibilities.

2. Website & Server Security

  • Our servers are hosted in secure data centers with restricted access.

  • All communication between users and our website is encrypted using HTTPS (SSL).

  • Regular firewall monitoring and malware scanning are performed.

  • We deploy daily backups to prevent data loss.

  • Only authorized personnel have administrative access to systems.

3. User Data Protection

  • Sensitive user data (emails, IPs, cookies) are stored securely and never shared with unauthorized entities.

  • Passwords (if any) are encrypted using industry-standard hashing algorithms.

  • We use security plugins and server-level rules to block brute-force attempts and spam bots.

4. Software & Platform Updates

We routinely update:

  • Website CMS (WordPress)

  • Themes and plugins

  • Security certificates

  • Server-side software (PHP, MySQL)

This ensures that vulnerabilities are patched and the system remains stable.

  • Security patches and backups are applied.

  • Logs are reviewed for forensic analysis.

We are committed to transparency and responsible handling of any such incident.

7. Third-Party Integrations

Some services (like analytics, advertising, or social embeds) are provided by third parties.
We vet all integrations for compliance with privacy and security standards, and we only work with reputable partners such as Google and Cloudflare.

8. Employee & Contributor Access

  • Editorial and admin accounts follow 2FA (two-factor authentication).

  • Access is granted based on specific roles and revoked when no longer needed.

  • Regular audits are conducted to review permissions.
