Privacy Notice
How Think Tank Circle uses information submitted through this website.
Information we collect
When you submit an enquiry, register your interest, apply for a programme or partnership, or subscribe to updates, you may provide your name, email address, organisation, role, location, interests, message and other information relevant to your request. Institutional applicants may provide a PDF or DOCX organisation profile. Our server also uses limited technical information to protect forms against abuse.
How information is used
We use submitted information to respond to requests, evaluate applications, administer community subscriptions, manage programme and event interest, and maintain necessary organisational records. Communications about new content and opportunities are intended only for people who have opted in. We do not sell submitted contact information to advertisers.
Where information is stored
This website is hosted through Vercel and stores submitted records in a private Neon PostgreSQL database. Limited service providers may process data on our behalf for hosting, storage or transactional communication where configured. Access to submitted records is restricted to administrators.
External fonts and photographs used on the public website may also load from third-party services, subject to those services’ own policies.
Retention and your choices
Enquiry and registration information is retained for the purpose for which it was collected and is reviewed for deletion when it is no longer needed, subject to applicable record-keeping requirements. A fixed retention schedule should be formally approved before public launch. You can ask to access, correct or delete information you have submitted, or withdraw consent for optional communications, using the contact form. We will review and respond to the request.
Security and changes
The website applies access controls to the submission dashboard and processes forms over HTTPS. No internet service can guarantee absolute security. This notice may be updated as the institution confirms communication providers, retention rules and operating procedures.
