3) How We Use Cookies

Some cookies and related technologies we use—such as analytics tools, affiliate tracking, and embedded content—may be classified as tracking technologies under applicable data protection laws. Where required, we will inform you and request your consent before activating non-essential cookies.

We use the following categories:

  • Essential and security cookies: Necessary to operate the Site, enable core features, and protect against misuse or attacks.
  • Analytics cookies: Used to understand aggregated user behavior and improve content (e.g., Google Analytics 4).
  • Affiliate tracking technologies: Help attribute commissions when users click outbound links and complete qualifying actions.
  • Social media integrations: Embedded content from platforms such as X (Twitter), Facebook, or Instagram may set cookies when loaded or interacted with.

We do not rely on heavy programmatic advertising systems such as Google AdSense at this time.

4) Consent and Cookie Banner

Where required, a cookie notice will be presented to users. Your preferences may be stored for up to 12 months unless you clear your browser cookies earlier.

  • You can manage non-essential cookies at any time via browser settings or available controls.
  • Where local regulations require prior consent, non-essential cookies will not be set until consent is given.

  • Cookie settings: Adjust your preferences at any time through available controls on the Site.
  • Browser controls: Most browsers allow you to block or delete cookies. Note that this may affect functionality.
  • Global Privacy Control (GPC): Where detected, we treat this as a request to limit non-essential tracking as required.
  • Do Not Track (DNT): While not standardized, we aim to respect applicable privacy signals where feasible.
  • Third-party controls: You can manage preferences directly with platforms such as Google, Facebook, and X.

8) International Data Transfers

Some service providers (e.g., analytics, CDN services, social platforms) may process data outside Nigeria. We apply appropriate safeguards to protect your information.
