Privacy Policy

Last updated: 28 September 2026

Identity and Role of the Data Controller

dailybriefry acts as the data controller for the personal data processed through this website. We are responsible for determining the purposes and means of processing your personal data in connection with our daily news briefing resource services, which include newsroom planning tools, short-form reports, studio updates, camera coordination features, and media delivery workflows. Our registered address is 1 London Bridge Street, London, SE1 9GF, United Kingdom. For any data protection queries, please contact us at [email protected].

Scope of This Notice

This privacy notice applies to all visitors and users of the dailybriefry website who interact with our commercial services. It covers individuals located in the United Kingdom who access our platform for professional media-related activities. The notice explains how we handle personal data collected directly from you or through your use of the site, including any information submitted via the contact form on our Contacts page.

Categories of Personal Data and Sources

We collect personal data such as your name, email address, professional role, organisation details, and usage information generated when you interact with features like workflow planning or report delivery. Data is obtained directly from you when you complete forms or register for services. Additional information may come from automated logs of your interactions with our tools for studio updates and camera coordination.

Purposes of Processing and Legal Bases

We process your data to deliver the daily news briefing resource, manage your account for media delivery workflows, respond to enquiries via the contact form, and improve service functionality. Legal bases include performance of a contract when you subscribe to our services, legitimate interests in operating and enhancing our platform, and compliance with legal obligations under UK data protection laws. Each purpose is matched to the minimal data necessary for that activity.

Requirement to Provide Data

Providing certain personal data is necessary to access core features such as short-form reports and regular media delivery. If you choose not to supply required information, we may be unable to provide full access to the platform or respond to your requests. Optional data fields allow you to customise your experience without affecting basic functionality.

Cookies and Similar Technologies

We use cookies and similar technologies to support essential site operations, analyse usage patterns for newsroom planning tools, and remember your preferences. Details of these technologies, including how to manage them, are set out in our separate Cookie Policy, which is accessible via the site-wide cookie banner.

Processors, Recipients and Disclosures

We engage service providers such as hosting providers, analytics platforms, and workflow management tools to support our operations. These processors act under our instructions and are bound by appropriate contracts. We may disclose data where required by law, for example in response to valid legal requests from UK authorities, or to protect our rights and those of our users.

International Transfers

Some of our service providers may be located outside the United Kingdom. Where personal data is transferred internationally, we ensure appropriate safeguards are in place, such as standard contractual clauses approved under UK GDPR, to protect your information to an equivalent standard.

Retention Periods

We retain personal data only for as long as necessary for the purposes outlined. Account-related data is kept for the duration of your subscription plus a reasonable period thereafter to handle any queries. Usage logs for features like camera coordination are retained for up to 24 months to support service improvements, after which they are securely deleted or anonymised.

Security and Data Minimisation

We implement appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect personal data against unauthorised access or loss. Data minimisation principles are applied so that only the information needed for each purpose is collected and processed. While we take these steps seriously, no system can guarantee absolute security.

Your Data Subject Rights

Under UK GDPR and the Data Protection Act 2018, you have rights including access to your data, rectification of inaccuracies, erasure in certain circumstances, restriction of processing, data portability, and objection to processing based on legitimate interests. To exercise these rights, please submit a request via the contact form on our Contacts page or email [email protected] with sufficient detail to identify your records.

Withdrawing Consent and Objecting to Marketing

Where processing relies on consent, you may withdraw it at any time by contacting us at [email protected]. You also have the right to object to direct marketing communications and any profiling activities associated with them. Unsubscribing options are provided in any marketing emails we send.

Right to Complain

If you are dissatisfied with how we handle your personal data, you have the right to lodge a complaint with the Information Commissioner's Office, the UK supervisory authority. Contact details for the ICO are available on their official website.

Children and Age Restrictions

Our services are intended for professional users and are not directed at children under the age of 18. We do not knowingly collect personal data from minors. If we become aware that data has been collected from a child without appropriate consent, we will take steps to delete it promptly.

Automated Decision-Making and Profiling

We do not engage in automated decision-making that produces legal or significant effects on individuals. Limited profiling may occur to tailor content recommendations within the news briefing resource, but this is based on your explicit interactions and can be adjusted through your account settings.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this privacy policy to reflect changes in our practices or legal requirements. The effective date of the current version is shown at the top of the page. Continued use of the site after updates constitutes acceptance of the revised terms.
