Structured in full alignment with GDPR, CCPA, and international standards.
1. Information we collect
We collect information necessary to deliver research publications, verify executive readership, and improve editorial depth.
When you access MinfoMedia reports, whitepapers, or newsletters, we record: (a) contact information you provide willingly, including name, corporate email address, job title, and organization; (b) reader activity metrics such as document downloads, session durations, and article bookmarks; and (c) technical access logs containing IP addresses, browser specifications, and referring domains.
2. Lawful basis for processing
Every processing action operates under clear legal grounds under global privacy frameworks including GDPR and CCPA.
We process your data under three distinct lawful bases: (1) Legitimate interest in distributing business analysis, maintaining publication integrity, and preventing unauthorized scraping; (2) Contractual necessity when fulfilling subscription agreements or report deliveries; and (3) Explicit consent for specialized editorial briefings and event invitations.
3. Operational use cases
Your data is used strictly for editorial delivery, access verification, and publication quality enhancement.
We do not sell, rent, or trade reader personal information to third-party advertisers or data brokers. Collected information is deployed solely to: generate personalized research digests, verify qualification for gated industry benchmarks, authenticate subscriber access tiers, and aggregate anonymized readership statistics for editorial planning.
4. Data retention and storage
Reader records are retained only as long as necessary for active subscriptions and regulatory compliance.
Subscriber profiles remain active throughout your subscription lifecycle and are archived after 24 months of total inactivity. Server access logs and telemetry data are permanently purged after 90 days. Encrypted backups follow strict rotating deletion schedules compliant with SOC 2 requirements.
5. Your data subject rights
You hold full statutory control over your personal records at all times.
Regardless of geographic location, MinfoMedia affords all readers the right to: request a complete export of stored personal data, correct inaccurate professional details, object to specific processing streams, or request total account erasure. Requests are acknowledged within 48 business hours.
6. Security architecture
Enterprise-grade technical safeguards secure our research repository and subscriber database.
All web traffic, report downloads, and administrative sessions are enforced via TLS 1.3 encryption. At-rest databases employ AES-256 encryption with automated vulnerability scanning, restricted role-based employee access, and routine independent security audits.
If you have questions concerning our processing methods, wish to exercise your data subject rights, or require an export of your subscriber history, reach our privacy governance team directly.
