Privacy Policy
How WorldTravelBrief and Asia Press Centre Pte. Ltd. collect, use and protect your data.
Who we are
WorldTravelBrief is published by Asia Press Centre Pte. Ltd. (470 North Bridge Road, #05-12, Bugis Cube, Singapore 188735). This policy explains what personal data we collect when you use worldtravelbrief.com and how we handle it.
Information we collect
When you create a reader account we store your name and email address. If you subscribe to newsletters we record your subscription preferences. We collect basic usage data (pages viewed, approximate region) to operate and improve the site. We do not sell your personal data.
How we use your data
We use your data to provide your account, send the newsletters you asked for, respond to enquiries, secure the service and understand which stories readers find useful. We only process data where we have a lawful basis to do so.
Sign in with Google
If you choose to sign in with Google, Google shares your name, email address and profile basics with us so we can create or access your account. We only accept a Google account whose email address is verified. We do not receive your Google password. Your use of Google sign-in is also governed by Google's own privacy policy.
Cookies and analytics
We use cookies that are necessary to keep you signed in and to remember basic preferences. Any analytics we use are aggregated and used to measure readership, not to build advertising profiles.
Third parties
We rely on a small number of processors to run the service — for example a hosting provider, our content platform, and an email provider that delivers account and newsletter emails. These providers process data on our behalf under contract and are not permitted to use it for their own purposes.
Data retention
We keep account data for as long as your account is active. You can delete your account at any time from your account settings, which removes your profile and sign-in data. We may retain limited records where the law requires it.
Your rights
You can access or update your profile, change your email, manage newsletter preferences and delete your account from the account page. To make any other request about your personal data, contact us at the address below.
Contact
Questions about this policy or your data can be sent to info@worldtravelbrief.com. We will respond within a reasonable time.
Changes to this policy
We may update this policy as the service evolves. Material changes will be reflected on this page.
