Information we collect

Tech Edition may collect personal information when users choose to interact with the site. This can include names, email addresses, and other contact details provided when subscribing to newsletters, submitting enquiries, registering for events, or participating in surveys or promotions.

Non-personal information may also be collected automatically. This includes browser type, device information, IP address, pages visited, and referral sources, which help Tech Edition understand how the site is used and improve overall performance.

How information is used

Personal information is collected and used only for clear and legitimate purposes. These include delivering requested content or services, responding to enquiries, sending newsletters or updates, managing event registrations, and improving editorial and commercial offerings.

Tech Edition does not use personal data for purposes unrelated to its media and publishing activities without consent, unless required to do so by law.

Cookies and analytics

Tech Edition uses cookies and similar technologies to enhance user experience, analyse site traffic, and understand content performance. Cookies may be used for analytics, advertising, and functionality purposes.

Users can choose to disable cookies through their browser settings. However, some parts of the site may not function properly as a result.

Data sharing and disclosure

Tech Edition does not sell or rent personal information to third parties. Information may be shared only when necessary to operate the website or deliver services, such as with analytics providers, email distribution platforms, or advertising partners, and only to the extent required.

Personal information may also be disclosed if required by law or in response to valid legal processes.

Data retention

Personal information is retained only for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes for which it was collected, or to meet legal, regulatory, or operational requirements.

When information is no longer required, it is securely deleted or anonymised.

Data protection and security

Tech Edition takes reasonable and appropriate measures to protect personal information against loss, misuse, unauthorised access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction. While no online system can be guaranteed to be completely secure, safeguards are regularly reviewed and updated where necessary.
