At The Global Citizen, operated by TGC Network LLC, we are committed to protecting your privacy. This policy describes the personal information we collect, how we use it, and your rights. By using our website, you agree to this policy.
Information We Collect
We collect information you voluntarily provide, such as your name and email address when you subscribe to our newsletter or submit an inquiry through our contact form.
Newsletter (Moosend)
Our email newsletter is operated through Moosend (email marketing platform). When you sign up via the on-site form or popup, Moosend receives the details you submit (typically your email address and any name you provide) and stores them on Moosend’s systems to send messages on our behalf. Moosend may also set cookies or similar technologies when you interact with the sign-up experience or when you have accepted marketing cookies on this site. Moosend’s privacy practices are described at moosend.com/legal/privacy-policy. We do not sell your email address to third parties for their own marketing.
We also automatically collect non-personal or technical data including IP address, browser type, device information, and usage patterns through server logs and, where permitted, analytics or marketing tools.
How We Use Your Information
We use your data to deliver newsletters, respond to comments or questions, and improve site content and performance. Non-personal data helps us understand visitor behavior and tailor the experience. We never sell personal information to third parties.
Cookies and Tracking
We use cookies and similar technologies for essential site functions and, with your consent, for marketing and partner placements.
Essential cookies include WordPress session cookies (if you log in) and our consent cookie (gc_cookie_consent), which stores whether you accepted or rejected non-essential cookies.
Marketing cookies (opt-in only) are loaded only if you click Accept on our cookie notice. They may include Moosend (newsletter sign-up and related tracking from cdn.stat-track.com) and partner affiliate placements (such as BullionStar banners). If you click Reject, these scripts and third-party embeds remain blocked. You can withdraw consent by clearing cookies for this site in your browser and making a new choice on your next visit.
You can also control cookies through your browser settings. Blocking all cookies may affect site functionality.
Data Retention
We retain personal information only as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes described or as required by law. Newsletter subscribers stay on our list until they unsubscribe using the link in each email.
Data Sharing
We may share data with trusted service providers under confidentiality agreements, including:
- Hosting and infrastructure — to operate the website.
- Moosend — newsletter list management and email delivery (subscriber data you provide when you sign up).
- Analytics providers — if enabled in site administration, to understand traffic and performance.
We do not share personal data with these providers for their independent marketing purposes.
Your Rights
You may request access to, correction of, or deletion of your personal data at any time. Depending on your location, you may have additional rights under applicable privacy laws. Submit requests through our contact form.
For newsletter subscribers in the EEA, UK, or similar jurisdictions, our lawful basis for sending marketing email is your consent when you subscribe. You may withdraw consent at any time via the unsubscribe link in each email or by contacting us.
Security
We apply reasonable technical and organizational safeguards, including encryption during transmission and secure servers. No internet transmission is 100 percent secure, so we cannot guarantee complete protection.
Third-Party Links
Our site may contain links to external websites. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of those third parties and encourage you to review their policies.
Changes to This Policy
We may update this policy at any time. The new version will be posted on this page with an updated date. Your continued use after changes indicates acceptance.
Governing Law
This Privacy Policy is governed by the laws of the State of New Mexico, United States of America.
Affiliate links
Some pages and emails contain affiliate links to third-party products and services (including partner banners such as BullionStar). If you click these links and complete a purchase or sign-up, The Global Citizen (TGC Network LLC) may receive a commission at no additional cost to you. Affiliate relationships help fund our research and publishing; they do not determine our editorial conclusions. For the full policy, see our Affiliate Disclosure page.
