Privacy Policy

Who We Are

This policy explains how GBNT, the US-based publisher of Global Business News Today ("we", "us"), handles personal information when you visit globalbusinessnewstoday.com or contact us. Questions about this policy can be sent to info@globalbusinessnewstoday.com.

Information You Give Us

• Contact forms: your name, email address and message.
• Newsletter sign-up: your email address.
• Press release submissions: company name, media contact email, the release text and any links you include.

When you submit a form, we also record the page you sent it from, the time and your IP address. We use these to reply to you, to prevent spam and abuse (for example, by limiting repeated submissions), and to keep a private backup copy of submissions on our hosting server.

How We Use Your Information

• To reply to messages, tips and correction requests.
• To send the newsletter you signed up for. You can unsubscribe at any time by emailing us.
• To review press releases for publication.
• To protect the site against spam and misuse.

We do not sell your personal information.

Analytics and Cookies

We use Google Analytics to understand how many people visit the site and which pages they read. Google Analytics uses cookies and collects information such as your device, browser, approximate location and the pages you view. Google explains how it uses this data at How Google uses information from sites that use its services. You can opt out with the Google Analytics opt-out browser add-on or by blocking cookies in your browser.

We also save your light or dark theme choice in your browser's local storage. It stays on your device and is not sent to us.

Third-Party Services

• Hosting and email: the site and its form mailer run on our web hosting provider's servers, and form submissions are delivered to our email inbox.
• Images: many article images are loaded from Unsplash, which receives your IP address when your browser loads an image.
• External links: we link to other websites. Their privacy practices are their own.

How Long We Keep Information

We keep form submissions only as long as we need them to respond, review a submission or protect the site, and we delete them on request.

Your Choices and Rights

You can ask us to tell you what information we hold about you, correct it or delete it by emailing info@globalbusinessnewstoday.com. Depending on where you live, you may have further rights under local data protection law, including the right to complain to your data protection authority.

Children

This site is intended for adults and is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect information from children.
