Privacy Policy

1. Introduction

Welcome to AfricanBettingGuides (referenced herein as "ABG", "we", "us", or "our"). We operate as an independent iGaming compliance auditor and data aggregator under the corporate entity AfricanBettingGuides Media LLC, registered in USA.

This Privacy Policy outlines how we collect, use, and protect your personal information when you visit our website. As an informational platform, we do not process financial transactions, accept wagers, or manage sportsbook accounts.

2. Information We Collect

Because ABG is an informational portal, we collect minimal personal data. The data we do gather is categorized as follows:

• Log & Device Data: We automatically record your IP address, browser type, operating system, and the dates/times of your visits. This helps us optimize our Data-Free routing infrastructure for African mobile networks.
• Geo-Location Data: To display mathematically accurate bookmaker overrounds and locally licensed operators (e.g., BCLB in Kenya, NLRC in Nigeria), we utilize IP-based geo-location.
• Communication Data: If you contact us via email or our support channels, we retain the contents of your message and your contact details to facilitate a response.

3. Cookies and Tracking Technologies

We use cookies and similar tracking algorithms to enhance your user experience. These include:

• Essential Cookies: Required for the basic functionality of the site, such as maintaining your session state.
• Analytical Cookies: Used to aggregate anonymous traffic data to understand which sportsbook reviews are most helpful to our users.

You can instruct your browser to refuse all cookies or to indicate when a cookie is being sent. However, if you do not accept cookies, some portions of our site may not function properly.

4. Affiliate Tracking and Third-Party Links

Our website contains affiliate links to verified sportsbooks. If you click on a bookmaker link (e.g., 1xBet, Betway), a tracking cookie is placed on your device. This cookie informs the operator that you were referred by ABG, allowing us to earn a commission at no extra cost to you.

Please note that once you leave our site to visit a sportsbook, you are subject to their specific Privacy Policies and terms. We strongly advise you to review the privacy protocols of any third-party operator.

5. Data Security Protocols

The security of your data is critical to our "Zero Error" architecture. We implement commercially acceptable cryptographic protocols (SSL/TLS encryption) to secure our HTTP traffic. However, remember that no method of transmission over the internet is 100% secure.

6. Your Data Protection Rights

Depending on your jurisdiction (including the GDPR and localized data acts across Africa), you hold the following rights regarding your data:

• The right to access, update, or delete the information we have on you.
• The right of rectification if your information is inaccurate.
• The right to object to our processing of your personal data.
• The right to withdraw consent at any time.
