Policy

AfroNews24.com is fully committed to respecting and protecting your privacy. We have structured our web site so that, in general, you can visit without identifying yourself or revealing any personal information.

Once you choose to provide us personally identifiable information (any information by which you can be identified), you can be assured that it will only be used to support your customer relationship with AfroNews24, or to provide you access to areas of the web site to which you wish to have access.

This statement regarding the privacy of the personally identifiable information you provide online covers the five foundation principles of fair information:

Information we might collect

On some pages of www.afronews24.com you can make requests, and register to receive materials, or become a member of Afronews24online community. The types of personal information collected at these pages are your name, surname, e-mail address and address details.

In order to tailor our subsequent communications to you and continuously improve our products and services (including registration), we may also ask you to provide us with information regarding your personal or professional interests, demographics, experience with our products, and more detailed contact preferences. Some electronic newsletters record anonymous data about articles you have expressed interest in.

How we use it

The AfroNews24 uses your information to better understand your needs and provide you with better service. Specifically, we use your information to help you complete a transaction, to communicate back to you, to update you on service and benefits, and to personalise our web sites for you.

From time to time, we may also use your information to contact you for market research or to provide you with marketing information we think would be of particular interest. At a minimum, we will always give you the opportunity to opt out of receiving such direct marketing or market research contact.

We will also follow any local requirements, such as allowing you to opt in before receiving unsolicited contact, where applicable.

The AfroNews24 will not use or share the personally identifiable information provided to us online in ways unrelated to the ones described above without first letting you know and offering you a choice.

As previously stated, we will also provide you the opportunity to let us know if you do not wish to receive unsolicited direct marketing materials from us and we will do everything we can to honour such requests.

We will provide you with access to your information, including making every effort to provide you with online access to your registration data so that you may view, update or correct your information at our site where it was submitted. To protect your privacy and security, we will also take reasonable steps to verify your identity before granting you access or enabling you to make corrections. To access your personally identifiable information, return to the web page where you originally entered it and follow the instructions on that web page. Certain areas of The AfroNews24′s web site may limit access to specific individuals through the use of passwords and through providing personally data.
