Privacy Policy and other legal issues

Internet user privacy and confidentiality is of the utmost importance to The African Hunting Magazine, our web publisher members, and our advertiser clients. Our reputation and integrity is directly related to how we serve our clients and customers. Please find below a description of how we strive to protect the privacy of Internet users, and maintain the Internet as a highly credible medium.

User Information

All users who receive an advertisement served by The African Hunting Magazine retain complete anonymity where The African Hunting Magazine is concerned. As ads are delivered, The African Hunting Magazine does not acquire or collect any personal information about you. Your name, address, phone number, and email address all remain your private properties. The African Hunting Magazine does, however, collect information which is specific to how you use the Internet. The African Hunting Magazine servers note non-personally identifying details such as, but not limited to, the server you are logged onto, the geographic location of the ISP you use, the type of browser you use, and your IP address. This information is obtained solely for the purpose of targeting ads and measuring a given ad's effectiveness on behalf of The African Hunting Magazine clients and customers.

There are instances where a user may provide specific personal information in response to an ad containing a survey, purchase agreement, or registration questionnaire. For such programs, The African Hunting Magazine (or a third party working in conjunction with The African Hunting Magazine and the advertiser) acquires this information on behalf of the advertiser client. This information is used by the client so the user can receive the goods or services requested. When requested, The African Hunting Magazine may employ this information in a compiled format without identifying users specifically to provide to the advertiser client precise profiles of the types of individuals responding to the ads.

The Cookie Principle

The African Hunting Magazine may use cookies to improve your web browsing experience. When you are first served a The African Hunting Magazine ad, The African Hunting Magazine may assign a unique random number to your computer browser - commonly known as a "cookie." We do this to understand the way a user responds to the ads we deliver. For example, this number lets us keep track of how many times you view an ad we distribute. Likewise, the cookie can help make sure you do not see the same ad over and over - thus enhancing your online web viewing experience. Most web browsers automatically accept cookies, but you can usually change your browser to prevent that use if you desire.

Third-Party Measurement Services

Often, advertisers will employ a third-party service provider other than The African Hunting Magazine for serving the advertisements and for tracking the performance of an ad program. These companies may employ cookie and 1x1 pixel technology to measure and improve the effectiveness of ads for their client. These companies may collect and use anonymous information about your visits to our member websites and other websites. The information collected can include the date/time of your visit, the banner ad that was shown, their cookie, your IP address, the URLs of sites you visit This information can also be used for online preference marketing profiling purposes.

In these instances, The African Hunting Magazine has no control over the information collected by the third-party, and may not be held responsible for the actions of the third-party measurement service where collected information is concerned. If you have questions regarding different third-party measurement services and their respective methods of information collection, please contact us.
