Netralnews, an Indonesian news outlet, is prompting users to agree to updated Terms and Conditions and a Privacy Policy to continue accessing its full range of services. As of March 1, 2026, users are presented with a notice stating that continued use is contingent upon acceptance of these policies.
The notification informs users that declining to agree – by selecting “Nanti Saja” (Later) – will limit their access to reading and sharing news articles on the platform. Full interactive functionality, including commenting and other user engagement features, will remain unavailable until the terms are accepted. Netralnews states that accounts can be reactivated for full interaction once the updated policies are approved.
According to the Terms and Conditions, Netralnews strives to protect user privacy and copyright in accordance with applicable laws and regulations. The Privacy Policy details how the platform collects and manages personal information and data. The terms also stipulate that intellectual property rights for content remain with the creator, whether Netralnews itself, collaborating third parties, or users who publish their work on the platform.
Netralnews reserves the right to suspend or terminate services if users violate the terms of use or applicable laws. The platform also displays content from third-party collaborators, for which those parties are responsible. Netralnews commits to reviewing and potentially removing content that violates its policies or legal regulations.
The Privacy Policy references the importance of freedom of opinion, expression, and the press as fundamental human rights protected by Indonesian law and international declarations. It acknowledges the unique characteristics of cyber media and the need for professional guidelines aligned with Indonesian Press Law and journalistic ethics. The policy outlines verification and balance principles for news reporting, with exceptions made for urgent matters of public interest, provided sources are clearly identified, credible, and the subject of the report is unavailable for confirmation.
By agreeing to the Privacy Policy, Netralnews asserts its right to process user Data Pribadi (Personal Data) in accordance with the agreed-upon terms and applicable regulations. Selecting the “Setujui Semua” (Agree All) button signifies acceptance of both the Privacy Policy and the Terms of Use.
