Privacy — your news, your choice

Help us understand which features readers enjoy, only if you are comfortable with it. Saying No does not block news, Search, Filters, or Analyze.

Statistics are off until you give permission.

Only with your permission

Feature statistics: selected news categories, news regions, and sources. Design and style preferences are not collected. We count setting selections, not individual readers.
Approximate location: when a local location database is configured, your IP address is used briefly on our server to estimate country, state/province and approximate city. The statistics database does not store your IP address. No outside IP-lookup service is contacted.
Optional visitor region: after choosing No, you may separately select your region from a dropdown and click Share my region, or Skip. No typing, city lookup, IP lookup or GPS is used for this answer. Sharing a region does not enable feature statistics.

Location availability: Automatic country/state lookup is not configured. Automatic location is recorded as unknown; visitors who choose No may still separately share their region.

Basic page count without identifiers

The server increments an aggregate counter when it serves the public news page, even if you choose No. It does not use cookies, IP addresses, location or visitor identifiers for this counter. Reloads, pagination and bots can count; these are page requests, not unique visitors.

What is not sent to our statistics database

Your search words, tag text, saved-filter names, selected articles, article-reading history, AI prompts, name, email, precise coordinates, and persistent visitor identifiers. News-region filters represent your interests, not where you live.

How we use and keep the counts

We use daily totals to understand popular features and broad geographic patterns. Preferences are counted separately, not stored as a personal profile or a complete filter combination. Approximate location counts are separate from preference counters and reflect consenting page requests, not unique people. A voluntarily shared visitor region is counted separately from news-filter regions and automatic location estimates. We never combine these into a single visitor-location total.

New counts are combined into weekly reports retained for the latest 52 completed weeks, plus current-week daily counters. The weekly job deletes daily counters only after archiving them successfully. If the job fails, pending counters remain until it is repaired. Legacy statistics collected under the previous notice retain their original 90-day limit and are not moved to year-long reports. Reports are private to Admin and include small totals; these do not establish unique readership.

Your choice and your device

We remember Yes or No, the time of your choice, and this notice version in a first-party cookie for 180 days. A short-lived technical session protects requests and limits repeated counts. You can turn statistics off here at any time; already-combined totals cannot be separated to remove one person's contribution.

Your saved filters, theme, and other requested settings remain in your browser so those features work. Analyze uses temporary tab storage. A separate region-choice cookie remembers Share or Skip for 180 days without storing the selected region in the cookie. Saying No stops feature and automatic-location statistics; it does not erase your saved settings. Clearing site data removes saved settings and the remembered privacy choice.

Other requests and services

Your hosting connection necessarily exposes an IP address to the server. Hosting/security logs and any hosting backups are separate from this statistics feature. Search terms are sent to the server to find news, but are not included in our statistics payload.

Google Translate and websites you open through article or AI links operate under their own privacy policies. This statistics choice does not authorize those providers to track you.

Device-language detection happens in your browser and is not added to WNA statistics. Automatic translation uses Google Translate, so your browser connects to Google when translation runs. You can select English to read the original page.

10. How are WNA’s nine regions grouped?

These are WNA’s custom news groupings, not the official UN classification. Each listed country belongs to one group.

Northern America
Latin America
Europe
Middle East
Central Asia
South Asia
Far East
Africa
Oceania

News regions filter where an article’s event happens. An optional visitor region tells us where a reader is. One is never used to guess the other.

The country dropdown in Search shows which countries and territories belong to each group. Cyprus is in Europe in this app.

10.1. Middle East — which countries are included?

This group includes Türkiye and Egypt, together with Bahrain, Iran, Iraq, Israel, Jordan, Kuwait, Lebanon, Oman, Palestine, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Syria, the United Arab Emirates and Yemen.

Egypt is not repeated under Africa; Türkiye is not repeated under Europe.

10.2. Central Asia — why does it include Russia?

For easier news browsing, WNA uses a broader Central Asia group:

Central Asia: Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan and Uzbekistan.
South Caucasus: Armenia, Azerbaijan and Georgia.
Russia: the whole country, without splitting it between Europe and Asia.

This is an app grouping, not a claim that Russia or the South Caucasus are geographically Central Asia.

10.3. South Asia — which countries are included?

Afghanistan, Bangladesh, Bhutan, India, Maldives, Nepal, Pakistan and Sri Lanka.

10.4. Far East — what does it cover?

East Asia: China, Hong Kong, Macao, Taiwan, Japan, Mongolia, North Korea and South Korea.
Southeast Asia: Brunei, Cambodia, Indonesia, Laos, Malaysia, Myanmar, the Philippines, Singapore, Thailand, Timor-Leste and Vietnam.

Russia is under Central Asia, not Far East.

10.5. Latin America — where does Mexico belong?

Mexico belongs to Latin America in this app.
The group also covers Central America, South America and the Caribbean, including their listed territories.
Northern America contains Canada, the United States, Greenland, Bermuda, and Saint Pierre and Miquelon.

In WNA, “Latin America” is a broad regional label that includes the Caribbean, Belize, Guyana and Suriname, even though the term can have a narrower cultural meaning.

10.6. Why are some articles missing from a region filter?

Regions use the event country assigned to an article during AI processing, not the publisher’s country. An article without an assigned country may not match your selected region.

10.7. What happens to my older saved region filters?

Your saved filter names and other choices stay intact. Older broad region selections are adapted:

Asia becomes Central Asia, South Asia and Far East.
South America becomes Latin America.
The former North America group becomes Northern America plus Latin America.

Some adapted filters cover more countries than before. Review the Regions checkboxes and save a new filter if you want a narrower selection. Historical statistics are not redistributed into the new groups.

11. Where are my saved settings stored?

Named filters, default choices, and appearance settings are saved in the browser or app you are using. They may differ on another device.

Clearing website data removes these preferences.

Analyze These selections are kept for the current browser-tab session.

Optional statistics are separate. Open Privacy in the menu to see what is collected only with permission, or to turn statistics off.

12. When does new news arrive?

The app checks for new news feeds 4 times per hour, at :03, :18, :33, :48 UTC, then enriches unprocessed articles with AI. The administrator controls this shared schedule; actual start times depend on the server scheduler.

AI processing or provider limits can delay categories and locations.

13. App updates

Automatic checks: The app checks when it opens or resumes, and once a minute while visible.

Installing an update: The page reloads automatically when no unfinished form or dialog is in use.

An internet connection is required. Update checks cannot run while the app is closed or suspended.

Perdão de dívidas e novo teto do MEI: entenda o que muda

Sancionada nesta quarta-feira (21) pelo presidente Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva, a Lei Complementar 238/2026, que estabelece novas regras para os microempreendedores individuais (MEI), estabelece o perdão de dívidas tributárias com a União. A legislação também aumenta gradualmente o limite de faturamento anual e amplia a possibilidade de contratação de funcionários. Batizado de Prospera MEI, o pacote inclui ainda medidas para facilitar a participação de pequenos negócios em compras públicas. Parte das mudanças, porém, só começa a valer em 2027. Notícias relacionadas:Sancionada lei que perdoa dívida e aumenta limite de MEI.Importações para pesquisa pública terão imunidade tributária.Governo destina R$ 6,49 bilhões a setor de exportação.Além da lei, Lula assinou o decreto que dispensa os MEI da obrigatoriedade de emitir nota fiscal nas vendas de produtos e na prestação de serviços a pessoas físicas. A norma também prevê a dispensa para os chamados nanoempreendedores, conforme as condições estabelecidas na regulamentação. O que muda? Entre as principais medidas estão: Perdão de dívidas: remissão de débitos tributários federais abrangidos pela lei, incluindo contribuições previdenciárias, multas e juros. Novo teto de faturamento: limite anual de R$ 110 mil em 2027 e de R$ 140 mil em 2028. Contratação de funcionários: possibilidade de contratar até dois empregados nas atividades contempladas pela nova regra. Nota fiscal: dispensa de emissão nas operações com pessoas físicas, conforme o decreto assinado pelo presidente. Dívidas bancárias: previsão de renegociação com descontos por meio de leilões com instituições financeiras. Compras públicas: ampliação das oportunidades de participação em contratações governamentais. Como funciona o perdão? A lei prevê a remissão de débitos tributários federais abrangidos pela medida, constituídos até 13 de outubro de 2026. O benefício inclui o valor das contribuições previdenciárias em atraso, além de multas, juros e encargos relacionados. A estimativa divulgada pelo governo é de que cerca de 3,6 milhões de microempreendedores sejam beneficiados. Para manter o benefício, o MEI deverá: Manter em dia o pagamento das guias mensais do Documento de Arrecadação do Simples Nacional (DAS) durante os seis primeiros meses de vigência da medida. Cumprir as demais condições previstas na legislação para a remissão dos débitos. Observar as exigências aplicáveis caso existam ações judiciais relacionadas às dívidas. A medida está prevista para entrar em vigor em 1º de janeiro de 2027. O perdão não significa devolução de valores que já tenham sido pagos. Como fica o faturamento? O limite anual do MEI, atualmente em R$ 81 mil, será ampliado em duas etapas. A mudança busca permitir que os empreendedores aumentem suas receitas sem precisar deixar imediatamente o regime simplificado por ultrapassar o teto atual. Até 2026: teto de R$ 81 mil; A partir de 2027: R$ 110 mil; A partir de 2028: R$ 140 mil Os novos limites passam a valer nas datas previstas pela lei. O enquadramento continuará condicionado ao cumprimento dos demais requisitos exigidos para ser MEI. Quantos funcionários? A legislação amplia para até dois empregados o limite de contratação nas atividades abrangidas pela nova regra. Os trabalhadores deverão receber, no mínimo, um salário mínimo ou o piso salarial da categoria profissional. A ampliação não deve ser interpretada como uma autorização irrestrita para todos os MEI: é necessário observar quais atividades estão contempladas e as condições específicas previstas na legislação. O que muda na nota fiscal? O presidente Lula também assinou nesta quarta-feira o decreto que dispensa o MEI da emissão de nota fiscal nas vendas de produtos e na prestação de serviços destinados a pessoas físicas, conforme as condições da norma. A medida também contempla os nanoempreendedores, categoria prevista no contexto da reforma tributária, que poderá reunir pessoas com faturamento anual de até R$ 40,5 mil. Para esse público, a regulamentação prevê dispensa de abertura de Cadastro Nacional de Pessoa Jurídica (CNPJ) e de emissão de nota fiscal nas vendas a pessoas físicas, respeitados os requisitos aplicáveis. A dispensa não deve ser confundida com uma autorização geral para deixar de emitir documentos fiscais em qualquer operação. As exigências para transações com empresas e órgãos públicos devem ser observadas conforme as regras aplicáveis. Como serão as dívidas bancárias? O pacote também prevê uma frente de renegociação de débitos com instituições financeiras, em iniciativa associada ao Desenrola 3.0. A proposta é realizar leilões a partir de novembro, com participação de bancos privados. As instituições deverão oferecer descontos mínimos de 90% sobre os saldos devedores para participar da operação, conforme as condições anunciadas pelo governo. A expectativa oficial é alcançar cerca de 1,6 milhão de MEI inadimplentes. A compra ou renegociação das dívidas bancárias é uma medida diferente do perdão de débitos tributários com a União e depende das regras específicas da operação. E o Pix de R$ 5 mil? O pacote anunciado inclui a previsão de um auxílio de até R$ 5 mil para investimento na estruturação de pequenos negócios, chamado de Pix MEI. A proposta prevê recursos entre 2027 e 2030, com prioridade para mulheres empreendedoras e MEI com faturamento anual de até R$ 40,5 mil. O dinheiro deverá ser aplicado na aquisição de bens que contribuam para o desenvolvimento produtivo da atividade. A iniciativa também prevê orientação e assistência aos beneficiários, com apoio de parceiros como o Sebrae. A previsão de recursos, no entanto, não significa que o dinheiro esteja disponível para saque imediato. O acesso dependerá da implementação do programa e das regras operacionais a serem estabelecidas. Como acessar compras públicas? A lei também amplia as possibilidades de participação dos MEI em contratações governamentais e prevê mecanismos para facilitar o acesso às compras públicas. A iniciativa busca aproximar pequenos empreendedores dos órgãos públicos compradores, inclusive por meio de plataformas como o Contrata+Brasil. Os limites financeiros e os procedimentos aplicáveis variam conforme a modalidade de contratação. Por isso, o empreendedor deverá consultar os editais e as regras vigentes antes de apresentar uma proposta. Quando as medidas valem? 21 de outubro de 2026: sanção da lei e assinatura do decreto presidencial. 1º de janeiro de 2027: previsão de início do perdão de dívidas e entrada em vigor de medidas como o novo teto de R$ 110 mil. A partir de novembro: previsão de início dos leilões para renegociação de dívidas bancárias. 1º de janeiro de 2028: novo aumento do limite anual de faturamento, para R$ 140 mil. De 2027 a 2030: período previsto para a concessão dos recursos do Pix MEI, conforme a implementação do programa. A aplicação de cada benefício depende das condições previstas na lei, no decreto e nas regulamentações específicas. O empreendedor deve acompanhar os canais oficiais do governo, como o Serviço de Apoio às Micro e Pequenas Empresas (Sebrae), para verificar os procedimentos de acesso e a data efetiva de cada medida.

This app remembers your settings on your device. May we also count your category, region, and news-source selections to improve World News?

With Yes, we may also estimate your country/state/city on our server when a local location database is available. No GPS location, search text, or saved-filter names go into these statistics. Your answer is remembered for 180 days. New totals are archived weekly for up to 52 completed weeks. Basic page-request counts use no visitor identifiers regardless of your choice. After No, sharing just your visitor region is separately optional.

No is absolutely fine. You can still use the website.

Would you share just your region?

Statistics are off. If you wish, tell us which part of the world you are in. This is your location, not the news regions you follow.
