This Privacy Policy explains how Tomorrow’s Affairs Global LTD collects, uses, and protects personal data in connection with the Tomorrow’s Affairs website at tomorrowsaffairs.com and any associated applications or digital platforms (collectively, “the Platform”). We are committed to handling personal data responsibly and transparently, in accordance with the UK General Data Protection Regulation (“UK GDPR”), the Data Protection Act 2018 and the Data (Use and Access) Act 2025.
1. Who We Are
The data controller for personal data processed in connection with the Platform is Tomorrow’s Affairs Global LTD, a company incorporated in England and Wales, with its registered office at 44 Broadway, London E15 1XH. Tomorrow’s Affairs Global LTD is registered with the Information Commissioner’s Office as a data controller under registration reference ZB806086.
If you have any questions about this policy or wish to exercise your data protection rights, please contact us at [email protected].
2. Personal Data We Collect
Tomorrow’s Affairs does not operate a user registration system and does not store personal data on its own servers. The personal data we process arises from only three sources:
Newsletter subscriptions. If you subscribe to our newsletter, your email address is collected and held by our third-party email service provider on our behalf. We do not store this data on Tomorrow’s Affairs servers.
Contact enquiries. If you contact us through our contact form or by email, we receive your name, email address and the content of your message. This correspondence is handled through our editorial email and is not stored in a separate database.
Analytics data. We use Google Analytics to understand how visitors use the Platform. Google Analytics automatically collects certain technical and usage data, including your IP address (which Google anonymises by default), browser type, device type, the pages you visit and how you navigate through the Platform. This data is processed and stored by Google, not by Tomorrow’s Affairs. Further details are provided in Section 4.
We do not collect special category data – such as health information, racial or ethnic origin, political opinions, or religious beliefs – through the Platform.
3. Newsletter Subscriptions
We send our newsletter only to individuals who have specifically subscribed to receive it. The lawful basis for this processing is your consent (Article 6(1)(a) UK GDPR).
You may withdraw your consent and unsubscribe at any time by clicking the unsubscribe link included in every newsletter, or by contacting us directly at [email protected]. Withdrawal of consent does not affect the lawfulness of any processing carried out before withdrawal.
We do not share your email address with third parties for their own marketing purposes.
Your email address is held by our email service provider, which processes it on our behalf under appropriate data processing terms. It is not stored on Tomorrow’s Affairs servers.
4. Google Analytics and Cookies
We use Google Analytics to collect information about how visitors use the Platform. Google Analytics uses cookies – small data files stored on your device – to collect standard internet log information and usage data in an anonymous form. This includes data about the pages you visit, how long you spend on each page, and how you arrived at the Platform.
The information generated by these cookies about your use of the Platform is transmitted to and stored by Google on servers that may be located outside the United Kingdom. Google uses this information to compile reports on Platform activity and to provide other services related to internet usage. Google may also transfer this information to third parties where required by law, or where such third parties process the information on Google’s behalf.
IP addresses collected by Google Analytics are anonymised before storage. We do not associate analytics data with any personally identifiable information.
The lawful basis for our use of Google Analytics is our legitimate interests (Article 6(1)(f) UK GDPR) in understanding and improving how the Platform is used. The placement of analytics cookies on your device is subject to your consent under the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations.
You may opt out of Google Analytics tracking at any time by installing the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on, available at tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout. You may also manage your cookie preferences via the cookie settings on the Platform or through your browser settings.
For further information about how Google processes data collected through Google Analytics, please refer to Google’s Privacy Policy at policies.google.com/privacy.
We use the following categories of cookies on the Platform:
Strictly necessary cookies: Required for the Platform to function, including page navigation and basic security features. These do not require your consent.
Analytics cookies: Used by Google Analytics to understand how visitors use the Platform. These require your consent under PECR.
Functional cookies: Used to remember your preferences and settings. We rely on your consent where required.
You can manage or withdraw your cookie consent at any time through the cookie settings available on the Platform or through your browser settings. Disabling certain cookies may affect the functionality of the Platform.
5. Contact Enquiries
When you contact us by email or through our contact form, we use your name, email address, and message to respond to your enquiry. The lawful basis for this processing is our legitimate interests (Article 6(1)(f) UK GDPR) in handling communications addressed to us.
We retain correspondence for up to three years from our last communication, unless a longer retention period is required for legal reasons.
6. Sharing Your Data
We do not sell your personal data to third parties.
We share personal data only in the following limited circumstances:
Email service provider: Your newsletter subscription email address is held by our email service provider, which processes it on our behalf under appropriate contractual terms and solely on our instructions.
Google Analytics: Usage and technical data are processed by Google in connection with the Google Analytics service, as described in Section 4.
Legal and regulatory authorities: We may disclose personal data to competent authorities where required by law, court order or other legal process, or where we reasonably believe disclosure is necessary to protect rights or prevent harm.
Professional advisers: We may share information with legal or financial advisers where necessary in connection with our operations or the resolution of any dispute.
7. International Transfers
Google Analytics transfers data to Google’s servers, which may be located in the United States or other countries outside the United Kingdom. Google relies on Standard Contractual Clauses and other approved transfer mechanisms to ensure these transfers meet the requirements of UK GDPR. For further information, please refer to Google’s Privacy Policy at policies.google.com/privacy.
Our email service provider may also process data outside the United Kingdom. Where this is the case, appropriate safeguards are in place in accordance with UK GDPR.
For further information about the international transfer safeguards we use, please contact us at [email protected].
8. How Long We Keep Your Data
Newsletter email addresses are retained for as long as your subscription is active. When you unsubscribe, your email address is removed from our mailing list within a reasonable period by our email service provider.
Contact and correspondence data are retained for up to three years from our last communication, unless a longer period is required.
Analytics data collected by Google Analytics is retained in accordance with Google’s standard data retention settings, as configured in our Google Analytics account.
9. Security
We take reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect the personal data we process against unauthorised access, loss or disclosure. As Tomorrow’s Affairs does not store personal data on its own servers, the security of newsletter and analytics data is primarily governed by the contractual and security commitments of our service providers, including Google and our email service provider.
No method of transmission over the internet is entirely secure. In the event of a personal data breach likely to result in a risk to your rights and freedoms, we will notify you and the Information Commissioner’s Office as required under UK GDPR.
10. Your Rights
Under UK GDPR, you have the following rights regarding the personal data we hold about you:
The right of access: you may request a copy of the personal data we hold about you (commonly known as a Subject Access Request).
The right to rectification: you may ask us to correct any inaccurate or incomplete personal data.
The right to erasure: you may ask us to delete your personal data where we no longer have a lawful basis for holding it.
The right to restriction: you may ask us to restrict our processing of your personal data in certain circumstances.
The right to data portability: where processing is based on your consent or the performance of a contract and is carried out by automated means, you may ask us to provide your data in a structured, commonly used, and machine-readable format.
The right to object: you may object at any time to processing based on our legitimate interests. We will cease processing unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds that override your rights and interests.
The right to withdraw consent: where we rely on your consent, you may withdraw it at any time. Withdrawal does not affect the lawfulness of any processing carried out before the withdrawal.
To exercise any of these rights, please contact us at [email protected]. We will respond within one month. In complex cases, we may extend this period by a further two months and will notify you accordingly.
Please note that where personal data is held by a third-party service provider on our behalf, such as our email service provider or Google, we may need to direct your request to that provider or assist you in contacting them directly.
11. Children’s Privacy
The Platform is intended for a general adult audience. We do not knowingly collect personal data from children under 13. If you believe a child under 13 has submitted personal data through the Platform without appropriate parental consent, please contact us and we will take steps to address this promptly.
12. Third-Party Websites
The Platform contains links to third-party websites. This Privacy Policy applies only to the Platform. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of any linked sites and encourage you to read their privacy policies before providing any personal data.
