5. How Contact Form Submissions Are Processed
When you submit a contact form on our website, the following process occurs:
- Your form data (name, email address, phone number, and message) is transmitted securely via HTTPS encryption to our web server hosted in connection with tomorrowlthailand.today.
- The data is delivered to our team via an internal notification system or email to our designated inbox.
- Your inquiry is reviewed by a member of our team, who will prepare and send you a response.
- Your submission is stored in our records for the retention period described in Section 9 of this Policy.
- Your data is not automatically shared with any external party solely as a result of a form submission, except where a third-party email service provider is used to transmit the notification to our team.
We take reasonable technical and organisational measures to secure form submissions against unauthorised access, loss, or disclosure.
6. Cookies and Tracking Technologies
Our website uses cookies — small text files placed on your device — to ensure the website functions correctly and to help us understand how visitors use our site. In accordance with the PDPA and applicable Thai regulatory guidance, we seek your consent before placing any non-essential cookies.
6.1 Types of Cookies We Use
- Strictly Necessary / Functional Cookies: These cookies are essential for the website to operate properly. They enable core features such as page navigation, form functionality, and security. These cookies do not require your consent as they are technically necessary for service delivery.
- Analytics Cookies (Optional): With your consent, we may use analytics tools (such as Google Analytics) to collect anonymised statistical data about how visitors interact with our website, including which pages are most visited, the average time spent on the site, and the geographic distribution of visitors. This data helps us improve our content and user experience. You may opt out of analytics cookies at any time through our cookie consent banner or by adjusting your browser settings.
6.2 Managing Your Cookie Preferences
You can control and manage cookies in the following ways:
- Cookie Consent Banner: When you first visit our website, you will be presented with a cookie consent notice where you can choose to accept or decline optional analytics cookies.
- Browser Settings: Most web browsers allow you to manage cookies through their settings menus. You can typically choose to block or delete cookies. Please note that blocking essential cookies may impair the functionality of our website.
- Opt-Out Tools: For Google Analytics specifically, you may use the Google Analytics Opt-Out Browser Add-on.
6.3 Cookie Retention
Functional session cookies are typically deleted when you close your browser. Persistent cookies may remain on your device for a period ranging from 30 days to 24 months depending on their purpose. You can delete cookies at any time through your browser settings.
7. Third-Party Services and Technologies
Our website utilises certain third-party services and content delivery networks as part of its technical infrastructure. These services may process limited technical data about your device or browser as part of their operation. We have assessed these third parties and use them based on legitimate interests in delivering a functional and well-designed website.
7.1 Google Fonts
Our website may load typefaces from Google Fonts, a service provided by Google LLC. When your browser requests a font file, your IP address and browser information may be transmitted to Google's servers, which may be located outside Thailand. Google's use of this data is governed by Google's Privacy Policy. To minimise data transfers, we endeavour to self-host font files wherever practicable.
7.2 Tailwind CSS CDN
Our website may use the Tailwind CSS content delivery network (CDN) to load stylesheet files. When your browser fetches these resources, your IP address and technical device information may be transmitted to the CDN provider's servers. This processing is technically necessary to render the website's visual design correctly.
7.3 Web Hosting Provider
Our website is hosted on a third-party hosting platform. Our hosting provider may process server log data including IP addresses and access timestamps as part of standard server operations. Our hosting provider acts as a Data Processor under the PDPA and is contractually required to handle your data in accordance with applicable law.
7.4 Email Service Providers
Contact form submissions may be routed through an email service provider in order to deliver notification emails to our team. Such providers act as Data Processors and are bound by appropriate data processing agreements.
We do not permit third-party service providers to use your personal data for their own marketing or commercial purposes.
8. International Data Transfers
Some of the third-party services we use (such as Google Fonts or CDN providers) may involve the transfer of data to countries outside the Kingdom of Thailand. Under the PDPA (Section 28), transfers of personal data to foreign countries are permissible where:
- The destination country has been determined by the Personal Data Protection Committee to have adequate data protection standards;
- Appropriate safeguards are in place, such as standard contractual clauses or binding corporate rules; or
- The transfer is necessary for the performance of a contract, the protection of vital interests, or other recognised legal grounds.
Where we transfer your data internationally, we take reasonable steps to ensure that your personal data receives an adequate level of protection consistent with the PDPA. The data transferred is generally limited to technical identifiers (such as IP addresses) arising from standard web browser requests and does not typically include the personal data you submit through our contact form.
If you would like more information about the safeguards we have in place for international data transfers, please contact us at [email protected].
9. Data Retention
We retain your personal data only for as long as is necessary to fulfil the purposes for which it was collected, or as required by Thai law. Our specific retention periods are as follows:
- Contact Form Submissions: We retain the content of contact form submissions (including name, email, phone number, and message) for a period of three (3) years from the date of submission. This period reflects our need to maintain records of communications for business and potential legal purposes.
- Server and Access Logs: Technical log data, including IP addresses and access timestamps, is retained for a maximum of ninety (90) days, after which it is automatically deleted or anonymised.
- Analytics Data: Aggregated, anonymised analytics data may be retained for up to twenty-six (26) months in accordance with standard analytics platform configurations.
- Cookie Data: Session cookies are deleted when you close your browser. Persistent cookies expire according to the periods described in Section 6.3.
When personal data is no longer required, we will securely delete or anonymise it. Where anonymisation is not possible, we will securely restrict the data from further processing until deletion is possible.
10. Your Rights Under the Thailand PDPA
As a Data Subject under the Personal Data Protection Act B.E. 2562 (2019), you have the following rights with respect to your personal data. We are committed to honouring these rights in accordance with the timeframes and conditions prescribed by the PDPA:
- Right to be Informed (Section 23): You have the right to be informed about the collection and use of your personal data. This Privacy Policy serves as our primary means of fulfilling this obligation.
- Right of Access (Section 30): You have the right to request a copy of the personal data we hold about you and to receive information about how it is processed.
- Right to Rectification (Section 35): You have the right to request that inaccurate or incomplete personal data about you be corrected or updated.
- Right to Erasure / Right to be Forgotten (Section 33): You have the right to request the deletion or destruction of your personal data where it is no longer necessary for the purposes for which it was collected, where you withdraw your consent (and there is no other lawful basis for processing), or where the data has been unlawfully processed.
- Right to Restriction of Processing (Section 34): You have the right to request that we suspend the processing of your personal data in certain circumstances, for example while the accuracy of the data is being verified.
- Right to Data Portability (Section 31): Where processing is based on your consent or on a contract, and is carried out by automated means, you have the right to receive your personal data in a structured, commonly used, and machine-readable format, and to request that we transmit it directly to another Data Controller where technically feasible.
- Right to Object (Section 32): You have the right to object to processing based on legitimate interests, including profiling, where you have grounds relating to your particular situation. You also have the right to object to processing for direct marketing purposes at any time.
- Right to Withdraw Consent (Section 19): Where processing is based on your consent, you have the right to withdraw that consent at any time. Withdrawal does not affect the lawfulness of processing carried out before withdrawal.
- Right to Lodge a Complaint: You have the right to lodge a complaint with the Personal Data Protection Committee (PDPC) or another competent supervisory authority in Thailand if you believe your personal data has been processed in violation of the PDPA.

We may need to verify your identity before processing your request in order to protect the security of your personal data.
We will not charge a fee for handling your rights request unless the request is manifestly unfounded, repetitive, or excessive, in which case we reserve the right to charge a reasonable administrative fee or refuse the request, with written explanation.
11. Data Security Measures
We take the security of your personal data seriously. We implement a range of appropriate technical and organisational measures designed to protect your personal data against accidental or unlawful destruction, loss, alteration, unauthorised disclosure, or access. These measures include:
- HTTPS Encryption: All data transmitted between your browser and our website is encrypted using industry-standard Transport Layer Security (TLS/SSL) protocols.
- Access Controls: Access to personal data is restricted to authorised personnel who require it to perform their job functions. We enforce role-based access controls and require strong authentication credentials.
- Data Minimisation: We collect only the personal data that is strictly necessary for the identified purposes, in accordance with the PDPA's data minimisation principle.
- Secure Storage: Personal data stored on our systems is held in password-protected and, where appropriate, encrypted environments.
- Regular Security Reviews: We periodically review our security practices and update them as necessary to address evolving threats.
- Staff Awareness: Personnel with access to personal data are instructed on their obligations under the PDPA and our internal data protection policies.
In the event of a personal data breach that is likely to affect your rights and freedoms, we will notify the Personal Data Protection Committee without undue delay and, where required by law, notify affected individuals as required by the PDPA.
While we strive to protect your personal data, no method of transmission over the internet or method of electronic storage is completely secure. We cannot guarantee absolute security, and we encourage you to take precautions when sharing personal information online.
12. Children's Privacy
Our website and services are not directed at children under the age of 20 years (the age of majority in Thailand for the purpose of providing legal consent under civil and commercial law). We do not knowingly collect personal data from minors under the age of 20 without the verifiable consent of a parent or legal guardian.
Under the PDPA (Section 20), if the Data Subject is a minor (under 20 years of age and not emancipated), consent must be obtained from the holder of parental responsibility.
If you are a parent or guardian and you believe your child has provided us with personal data without your consent, please contact us immediately at [email protected]. If we become aware that we have inadvertently collected personal data from a child without appropriate consent, we will take prompt steps to delete that data from our records.
13. Links to Third-Party Websites
Our website may contain links to third-party websites, resources, or services that are not operated by us. This Privacy Policy applies solely to our website at tomorrowlthailand.today. We have no control over and accept no responsibility for the privacy practices or content of any third-party websites.
We encourage you to review the privacy policies of any third-party websites you visit before submitting personal data to them.

- Update the "Last Updated" date at the top of this page;
