Globally Inform | globallyinform.com | Last updated: June 4, 2026

Globally Inform is a content publishing website run by a small team of four named writers. We cover business, finance, technology, health, home improvement, lifestyle, fashion, law, real estate, education, travel, and gaming. We do not run an online store, we do not charge for access, and we do not require anyone to create an account to read our articles.

This page tells you straightforwardly what happens with your data when you visit our site — what we collect, why, who sees it, and what you can do about it. We have written it ourselves based on how our website actually works, not from a generic template.

Reading our site means you are comfortable with what is described here. If anything is unclear, email us at globallyinform@gmail.com.

1. What we collect and when

When you sign up for our newsletter

Your email address is the only thing we collect when you subscribe. That address goes into our mailing list and is used to send you updates when we publish new content. We do not pass it to advertisers, sell it, or use it for anything beyond that. You can leave the list at any time using the unsubscribe link in any email we send, or by writing to us directly.

When you write to us

When readers send us a correction, an editorial question, or general feedback, we receive whatever information is in that email — typically a name and email address. We keep that correspondence to handle your query and for our own records. We do not add you to any list or contact you for any other reason.

When you comment on an article

If comments are turned on for a particular article, submitting one stores your display name, email address, and comment text. Your email address is not shown to other readers. It is used only to manage comments and to notify you of replies if you opt in to that.

When you simply browse the site

Like every website, our server receives certain data automatically each time someone loads a page. This includes your IP address, the browser and device you are using, which page you visited, how long you stayed, and what site you came from. This information reaches us through our hosting provider and through Google Analytics, which we use to understand our readership. None of this is linked back to you as an individual.

2. Google Analytics

We use Google Analytics 4 (GA4) to measure how our content performs. It tells us things like which articles are read most, which countries our readers come from, and how people navigate between pages. It does this using anonymised data — it does not hand us a list of names or identify individual visitors.

How Google uses this data is governed by Google’s own privacy terms, not ours. If you would rather not be counted in our analytics at all, you can install Google’s opt-out browser extension at tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout — it works across all sites that use Google Analytics, not just ours.

We have also linked our GA4 account to Google Search Console. This means we can see which search terms bring readers to our site, which helps us understand what people are looking for when they find our content.

3. Cookies

Cookies our site sets directly

Our website sets a small number of cookies for basic functionality — for example, to remember that you have acknowledged our cookie notice, or to keep a comment session active. These are not tracking cookies and they do not follow you to other websites.

Cookies from Google Analytics

Google Analytics places its own cookies on your device to measure visits and user behaviour. These cookies do not collect personally identifiable information and are governed by Google’s privacy policy at policies.google.com/privacy.

Cookies from advertising

Our website displays third-party advertisements. Ad networks, which may include Google AdSense, set their own cookies to decide which ads to show you. These cookies are managed by the ad network, not by us. You can review and adjust your ad personalisation settings at adssettings.google.com.

Managing cookies yourself

Cookie management options are available in all major browsers, typically found within the Privacy or Security section of your browser’s settings. Blocking all cookies may affect how some parts of our site display, but the articles themselves will still be readable.

4. Advertising and editorial separation

Globally Inform displays advertising on some pages. It is worth being upfront about what that involves and what it does not. 

Advertising on our site is served by third-party ad networks. It is displayed separately from our editorial content and has no effect on what our writers choose to cover or how they cover it. Our four editors — Daniel Mercer, Priya Nair, Sofia Reyes, and James Calloway — write based on research and editorial judgement. No advertiser has ever paid for a placement in our articles, and we do not accept money to write about or promote any product or service.

This separation between advertising revenue and editorial content is something we take seriously. It is described more fully on our About Us page.

5. Health, legal, and financial articles

A significant portion of our content covers health, medicine, law, finance, and related areas where the stakes of bad information are high. Our writers in these areas — Priya Nair on health and wellness, Daniel Mercer on finance and law — have relevant academic and professional backgrounds, and they approach these subjects carefully.

That said, nothing on Globally Inform is professional advice tailored to your personal situation. Our articles are written to inform a general readership, not to replace a consultation with a doctor, solicitor, or financial adviser. Please treat them accordingly.

6. Who else sees your data

We do not sell reader data. The only situations in which information about you goes beyond our own team are these:

  • Our web hosting provider processes server data as part of running the site. They process it solely to keep the site running, not for any purpose of their own. 
  • Our newsletter platform stores subscriber email addresses in order to send emails. We only use platforms that are bound by appropriate data protection terms.
  • Google processes anonymised analytics data as described in Section 2.
  • Third-party ad networks receive data through cookies as described in Section 3.
  • If a court or government authority with valid legal standing requires us to disclose data, we would comply with that legal obligation.
  • If Globally Inform were ever sold or transferred to new ownership, reader data would be part of that transfer. We would announce any such change on the site before it happened.

7. How long we keep data

We do not hold onto data longer than we need to:

  • Newsletter email addresses — kept for as long as your subscription is active. Removed promptly when you unsubscribe.
  • Emails and correspondence — kept for up to one year, then deleted unless there is an active matter that requires the record.
  • Analytics data — Google Analytics holds data for 14 months by default, which is the setting we use.
  • Server logs — our hosting provider’s logs are typically retained for 30 days for technical and security purposes.

8. Your rights over your data

You have the right to ask us what data we hold about you, to have it corrected if it is wrong, or to have it deleted. If you subscribed to our newsletter and want to be removed, you do not need to explain why — just unsubscribe or email us and it is done.

Readers based in the European Economic Area have additional rights under GDPR, including the right to data portability and the right to object to certain types of processing. Readers in California have rights under CCPA. We apply these standards to all our readers regardless of where they are based, because we think it is the right approach.

To make any request about your data, email globallyinform@gmail.com with the subject line Privacy Request. We will respond within 30 days.

9. Children

Globally Inform is written for adult readers. We do not knowingly collect any information from children under 13. If you are a parent or guardian and think a child has submitted personal information through our site, contact us at globallyinform@gmail.com and we will remove it.

10. Security

Our site runs over HTTPS, which encrypts the connection between your browser and our server. We take reasonable precautions with any data we hold. Like any website, however, we cannot offer a guarantee of absolute security against every possible threat, and we would encourage you not to send highly sensitive personal information by email to any website.

11. Links to other websites

Our writers back their content with references to external sources — government sites, published research, news outlets, and other credible material. Following one of those links takes you away from our site and into territory we have no control over. We recommend checking the privacy policy of any external site before submitting personal information to it.

12. Updates to this policy

If we change how we handle data in any meaningful way, we will update this page and change the date at the top. For significant changes, we will also put a notice on our homepage. The current version of this policy is always the one at globallyinform.com/privacy-policy/.
