Privacy Policy

This policy explains how Globe Report handles personal information when you visit our website, create an account, subscribe to updates, or use our services.

Effective date: 14 October 2026

1. Who we are

Globe Report provides global news aggregation, reporting tools, and related digital services. For the personal information described in this policy, Globe Report is the data controller. Questions about this policy or our use of your information can be sent to contact@globe.report.

2. Information we collect

The information we collect depends on how you use Globe Report:

  • Account information: details you provide when registering or managing an account, such as your email address and name.
  • Newsletter information: the email address you submit when requesting news or service updates.
  • Communications: messages and supporting information you send when contacting us.
  • Technical information: information normally sent by your browser or device, such as IP address, browser type, device type, requested pages, timestamps, and diagnostic logs.
  • Service activity: actions needed to operate and secure your account, sessions, and use of site features or public interfaces.

Please do not send sensitive personal information unless it is necessary for us to address your request.

3. How we use information

We use personal information to:

  • provide, maintain, and improve Globe Report;
  • create and administer accounts and authenticate users;
  • deliver requested newsletters or service communications;
  • respond to enquiries, support requests, and feedback;
  • protect the service, our users, and the public from misuse, fraud, and security threats;
  • diagnose faults, understand service performance, and meet legal obligations.

4. Our lawful bases

Where UK data protection law applies, we rely on one or more lawful bases: performing a contract with you, pursuing legitimate interests in operating and securing the service, complying with legal obligations, and your consent where we ask for it. You may withdraw consent at any time, although this does not affect processing that already occurred lawfully.

5. Cookies and similar technologies

Globe Report may use cookies or comparable browser storage where necessary to maintain sessions, remember settings, protect forms, and keep accounts secure. You can control cookies through your browser, but blocking essential cookies may prevent account or security features from working correctly.

6. When information is shared

We do not sell your personal information. We may share it with service providers that help us host, secure, communicate, or operate Globe Report, subject to appropriate instructions and safeguards. We may also disclose information when required by law, to protect legal rights or safety, in connection with a business reorganisation, or when you direct or clearly authorise us to do so.

7. International transfers

Our service providers or technical infrastructure may process information outside the United Kingdom. Where required, we use recognised safeguards intended to protect personal information during international transfers.

8. Retention

We retain personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described above, including providing the service, resolving disputes, maintaining security records, and meeting legal or accounting requirements. Retention periods vary according to the type of information and why it is held.

9. Security

We use reasonable technical and organisational measures intended to protect personal information. No internet service is completely secure, so we cannot guarantee that information will never be accessed, altered, or lost without authorisation.

10. Your rights and choices

Depending on your location and the circumstances, you may have rights to access, correct, erase, restrict, or object to our use of your personal information, and to receive certain information in a portable form. You can also unsubscribe from marketing emails using the instructions in those messages.

To make a request, email contact@globe.report. We may need to verify your identity. If UK data protection law applies, you may also complain to the Information Commissioner’s Office, although we encourage you to contact us first so we can try to resolve the issue.

11. Children

Globe Report is a general-audience service and is not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided such information, please contact us so we can investigate and take appropriate action.

12. External services and links

Globe Report links to news publishers, app stores, social platforms, and other external services. Their privacy practices are controlled by their own policies, not this one. Review those policies before providing personal information to an external service.

13. Changes to this policy

We may update this policy as the service or legal requirements change. We will publish the revised version here and change the effective date. Where appropriate, we may also provide a more prominent notice.
