Policies & Copyright

Privacy Policy

SIMBA MEDIA respects reader privacy. This page describes, in general terms, information that may be handled when you use this website or contact our newsroom.

Information you send us

If you use our contact form, we receive the name, email address, subject and message that you submit. We use that information to review and respond to your enquiry and to operate the contact service. Please do not include sensitive personal information unless it is necessary for your request.

Technical information

For audience totals, the site uses a random first-party cookie that expires after 24 hours. A date-specific hash of that random value is used to estimate daily unique visitors and count page views. When a local GeoIP database is configured, the server briefly checks the connection IP address to infer a country, then stores only the two-letter country code with the daily visitor count. IP addresses, names, and browser details are not stored by this analytics feature or sent to a third-party geolocation service. Country estimates may be inaccurate, for example when a visitor uses a VPN or proxy. Automated visitors are excluded when their user-agent identifies them as bots. Daily analytics records are deleted after 90 days.

Our hosting provider may separately process standard technical request data to deliver and protect the website; its handling and retention depend on the hosting configuration.

Sharing and retention

Messages may be handled by the email and hosting providers used to operate the site. Information is retained only as needed for the purpose it was submitted, operational requirements and applicable obligations. Contact the newsroom if you have a privacy question or request.

Terms & Conditions

By accessing this website, you agree to use it lawfully and in a way that does not disrupt the site or interfere with other readers. You may read and share links to our public articles for personal, non-commercial use.

Unless otherwise stated, content on this website is protected by copyright. Republishing, adapting or commercially using content requires permission from the relevant rights holder. Nothing in these terms limits rights that cannot be excluded under applicable law.

Disclaimer

SIMBA MEDIA publishes news and information for general informational purposes. We work to ensure material is accurate at the time of publication, but developing events and new information can lead to updates or corrections.

Website content is not professional, legal, financial or medical advice. Readers should independently verify information and seek qualified advice where appropriate. To the extent permitted by law, SIMBA MEDIA is not responsible for decisions made solely on the basis of general website content.

Cookie Policy

This website uses a random first-party cookie that expires after 24 hours to estimate daily unique visitors and count page views. If configured, country-level location is inferred locally from the connection IP address; only the country code is retained, and no third-party geolocation lookup is used. The analytics report does not store IP addresses or browser details. Daily analytics records are retained for 90 days. The contact form may also rely on session functionality for its security controls.

You can manage or block cookies through your browser settings. If the analytics cookie is blocked, daily visitor totals may be incomplete. Disabling session cookies may also affect features that depend on a session.

Unless a page or item credits another rights holder, original SIMBA MEDIA articles, text, graphics and other materials are protected by applicable copyright laws. All rights are reserved.

You may link to our public pages. For permission to reproduce or republish content, contact the newsroom and identify the material and intended use. Third-party materials remain the property of their respective owners.
