Who we are

African Business Circle (africanbusinesscircle.com) publishes The Friday Brief and The Monday Signal. Contact us about privacy at news@africanbusinesscircle.com.

What we collect and why

• Newsletter sign-up: your email address and, if you give it, your name, so we can send you the editions you asked for. We use double opt-in: you are only added once you confirm by email.
• Website analytics: if you accept analytics cookies, we collect anonymous information about pages visited so we can see what readers find useful.
• Emails you send us: we keep correspondence only as long as needed to deal with it.

Who processes your data

Our email list is held by Brevo (Sendinblue SAS, France), which sends our newsletters on our behalf. Analytics, where you consent, is provided by Google. We do not sell or rent your data to anyone.

Cookies

Essential cookies keep the site working. Analytics cookies are used only if you accept them in the cookie banner, and you can change your choice at any time from the cookie icon at the bottom of the page.

How long we keep it

We keep your email address until you unsubscribe. Every email has a one-click unsubscribe link.

Your rights

Under UK and EU data protection law you can ask to see, correct or delete the data we hold about you, or object to how we use it. Email news@africanbusinesscircle.com. If you are unhappy with our response, you can complain to the UK Information Commissioner’s Office (ico.org.uk) or your local data protection authority.
