​​Foreign Policy Talks values the trust of its readers, members, and partners. We are committed to protecting your privacy and safeguarding personal information in accordance with the laws of the Republic of Indonesia, including the Personal Data Protection Law No. 27 of 2022. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and protect your information when you visit our website, engage with our activities, or read content hosted on our platform. It also clarifies our practice of republishing articles originally published elsewhere, with full attribution to their authors and sources.

​

Information We Collect​

When you visit our website or interact with us, we may collect certain types of information. This may include personal details such as your name, email address, and other contact information if you choose to subscribe to newsletters, register for events, or reach out to us. We also collect technical information such as IP addresses, browser types, and device information, as well as data on how you use our website, including the pages you visit and the duration of your visits. Some of this information may be gathered automatically through cookies or similar technologies that help us understand user behavior and improve our services.

​

How We Use Your Information​

The information we collect is used to operate and improve our website and activities. We use personal details to communicate with you directly, whether by responding to inquiries, sending newsletters, or sharing invitations to events. Technical and usage data allow us to analyze trends, understand our readership, and enhance the overall user experience. In addition, we may use publicly available articles written by members of our discussion club, which we republish with full credit to the author and acknowledgment of the original source.

​​

Republishing of Articles​

Foreign Policy Talks occasionally republishes articles authored by our members that have been previously published in newspapers, journals, or other online platforms. When we republish such content, we clearly indicate the title of the article, the author’s name, and the fact that it was originally published elsewhere, with a link to the original source whenever possible. By doing so, we do not claim ownership of the republished work. All rights remain with the original author and publisher. Our role is to provide a wider platform for discussion and dialogue, while respecting intellectual property and ensuring that proper attribution is always given. If any author wishes to have their republished article removed from our website, we will honor such requests when contacted at our official email.

​

Sharing of Information​

We do not sell or rent personal information to third parties. However, we may share information with trusted service providers that support the operation of our website, such as hosting services, analytics providers, or email communication platforms. In certain cases, we may share information with partners or collaborators in order to organize events or projects, but such sharing will always be limited to what is necessary. We may also disclose information if required to do so by law, regulation, or government authority in Indonesia.

​

Cookies and Tracking​

Our website may use cookies or similar technologies to enhance functionality and improve user experience. Cookies help us remember your preferences, measure website traffic, and analyze how visitors engage with our content. You can choose to disable cookies in your browser settings, but this may affect the way our website functions and could limit access to certain features.

​

Data Retention

​Personal data collected by Foreign Policy Talks is retained only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this Privacy Policy, unless a longer retention period is required by law. Republishing records, such as article titles, author names, and source acknowledgments, may remain available on our website as part of our archive unless a removal request is received from the original author or publisher.

​​

Data Security​

We take reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect the personal information we hold from unauthorized access, misuse, or disclosure. While we strive to maintain a high level of security, no method of transmission or storage can be guaranteed to be completely secure. Users should be aware that information shared over the internet always carries some degree of risk.

​​

Your Rights​

In accordance with the Personal Data Protection Law of Indonesia, you have the right to access and obtain a copy of your personal data, to request corrections or updates to your data, and to request deletion of your personal data in certain circumstances. You also have the right to withdraw consent where consent has been given for processing. Any such requests can be directed to our official contact at foreignpolicytalks@gmail.com, and we will respond in line with applicable legal obligations.
