Like many websites, Afribeats.com also uses “cookie” technology to collect additional website usage data and to improve the Afribeats.com Website and the services offered via the Website.
A cookie is a small data file that Afribeats.com’s servers transfer to your computer’s hard disk. Afribeats.com may also use tracking pixels.
Tracking pixels are small graphic images, which are used in email messages to determine whether the messages were opened and the links were clicked, or are used on the Afribeats.com website to collect information about the browser and device viewing the Afribeats.com website. Afribeats.com does not use cookies or tracking pixels to collect personally identifiable information.
Afribeats.com mainly uses “session cookies,” which enable certain features of the Afribeats.com website and services offered via the Afribeats.com website to better understand how you interact with the Website and services we offer via the Afribeats.com website to monitor aggregate usage by our users and web traffic routing on the Afribeats.com website and to improve the Afribeats.com website and services offered via the Afribeats.com website. Session cookies should be deleted from your computer when you disconnect from or leave the Afribeats.com website.
Afribeats.com also uses a persistent cookie on some of the Afribeats.com website that stay on your computer for some time after you leave the Afribeats.com website, for the sole purpose of ensuring that, where rating, voting, or survey functions are available, you do not participate more than once.
Third-Party Advertisers
The Afribeats.com website includes advertising from third-party advertisers. Afribeats.com does not provide any personally identifiable information to these advertisers.
Third-party advertisers, or companies working on their behalf, may serve your browser the advertisements that appear on the Afribeats.com website, allowing them to receive Log Data (as defined above). They may also use cookies, JavaScript, tracking pixels, and other technologies to measure their ads’ effectiveness and personalize advertising content. Afribeats.com does not control any third-party advertiser tracking or measurement technologies, and this Privacy Policy does not cover the information practices of third-party advertisers. Please contact them directly for more information about their privacy practices.
Our advertising partners may include Facebook and Twitter. Facebook allows its users to control advertising on the Facebook platform. Instructions are here. Twitter allows its users to control advertising and cookie preferences on the Twitter service. Instructions are here. To learn more about interest-based advertising or to opt out of this type of advertising by those third parties that are members of self-regulatory programs such as the Network Advertising Initiative, please visit the NAI’s website, which will allow you to opt out of Interest-Based Advertising by one, or all, NAI members. Similarly, information regarding opting out of targeted advertising by Digital Advertising Alliance members can be found here.
