Published by Digital Adaption, registered in England. This policy explains what information is collected when you use The Baht and how to contact us about it.
Newsletter signups
If you subscribe to The Baht Brief, we store your email address on our server so we can send the newsletter. We do not sell newsletter addresses or share them for unrelated marketing.
Contact emails
If you email editorial, advertising, or technical support, we keep the message for as long as needed to answer the enquiry, handle corrections, manage a commercial conversation, or resolve a site issue.
Analytics
The site uses analytics to understand page visits, useful guides, newsletter signups, outbound provider clicks, converter navigation, and basic site performance. Plausible is used for privacy-friendly aggregate reporting. Google Analytics 4 may also be used where configured, so we can connect search traffic to reader actions. We do not run behavioural advertising by default. Technical logs may record IP address, browser, requested URL, and time for security and reliability.
Your choices
You can ask for deletion of newsletter or contact data by emailing editorial@thebaht.com. Some records may be retained where needed for security, legal, accounting, or dispute-handling reasons.
What we do not collect by default
The Baht is designed as a public editorial site, not as a logged-in product. We do not ask readers to create accounts to use exchange-rate pages, provider comparisons, travel-money guides, or article archives. We do not sell reader profiles, do not run behavioural advertising by default, and do not need sensitive personal information to show the site.
If you choose to email us, the information you include is up to you. Avoid sending passport numbers, bank account numbers, full payment references, immigration documents, medical documents, or tax records unless we have specifically asked for a redacted example to investigate a factual issue. For correction evidence, a screenshot with personal information removed is usually enough.
Form processors and email providers
Newsletter signups are handled by a first-party form on thebaht.com. Contact workflows may involve the email provider that receives the message. We keep the amount collected small: usually an email address, message text, timestamp, and any information you voluntarily include.
If the newsletter later moves to a dedicated email platform, the privacy policy should be updated to name that platform and explain unsubscribe handling. The same principle applies to any future reader account, paid product, or comment feature: new collection should be documented before it becomes part of normal site use.
Analytics and logs
Analytics help us understand which guides are useful, which pages are broken, and where readers need clearer explanations. Event tracking may record aggregate actions such as newsletter form submissions, clicks to money-transfer providers, clicks to external sources, article navigation, and converter-page navigation. Server logs may still record technical information such as IP address, requested URL, user agent, time, and response code because that is how web servers are operated and secured.
Technical logs are used for reliability, abuse prevention, debugging, and security review. They are not used to build personal finance profiles or decide what exchange-rate guidance you see. If a bot overloads the site or a security event occurs, logs may be reviewed to protect the service.
Affiliate and outbound links
Some links go to providers such as money-transfer companies, travel services, insurers, or other third parties. Once you leave The Baht, the destination site's privacy policy applies. Affiliate links may include tracking parameters so a provider can attribute a referral, but The Baht does not control how that provider handles information after you click.
Retention
Newsletter data is kept until you unsubscribe or ask for deletion. Contact emails are kept only as long as useful for the enquiry, correction, commercial conversation, or operational record. Some records may need to be retained for legal, tax, accounting, abuse-prevention, or dispute-resolution reasons.
Contact about privacy
For privacy questions or deletion requests, email editorial@thebaht.com with enough information to identify the relevant record. If you used a different email address to subscribe or contact us, include that address in the request.
