This Privacy Policy explains what information Impact Career Africa (impactcareerafrica.com) collects when you visit this website, how that information is used, and the choices you have. By using this website, you agree to the practices described on this page. We may update this policy from time to time, and the current version will always be published on this page.
Information We Collect
- Information you send us: if you contact us through the contact form, we receive your name, email address and the content of your message. We use it only to respond to you.
- Information collected automatically: like most websites, our servers and analytics tools automatically record basic technical information such as your IP address, browser type, device type, pages visited and the date and time of your visit. This information is used in aggregate form to understand how visitors use the website and to improve it.
- We do not ask visitors to create accounts, and we never ask for identity documents, CVs, banking details or passwords.
Cookies
This website uses cookies — small text files stored on your device — to remember preferences, understand traffic, keep the website secure, and (once advertising is enabled) to serve advertisements. You can disable cookies in your browser settings at any time; the website will continue to work, although some features may not function perfectly.
Google AdSense and Advertising Cookies
We use or plan to use Google AdSense to display advertisements on this website. Google and its partners use cookies (including the DoubleClick cookie) to serve ads based on your visits to this and other websites. You may opt out of personalised advertising by visiting Google’s Ads Settings page. Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on a user’s prior visits to this website or other websites. For more information about how Google uses data, please read Google’s own privacy documentation on its website.
Analytics
We may use privacy-respecting analytics services (such as Google Analytics) to count visits and understand which content is most useful. Analytics data is aggregated and does not identify individual visitors to us.
Embedded Content and External Links
Our articles link to official external websites (for example, company careers pages and government websites) and may include embedded content from other services. These external websites have their own privacy policies, and we are not responsible for their content or practices. We encourage you to read the privacy policy of any website you visit.

Sharing of Information
We do not sell, trade or rent your personal information to anyone. Information may be shared only with service providers who help us operate the website (such as hosting and analytics providers), and only to the extent needed for them to provide their service, or where we are required to do so by law.
Data Security and Retention
We take reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect information against loss, misuse and unauthorised access. Messages sent through the contact form are kept only for as long as needed to handle your enquiry.
Your Rights
Depending on the laws of your country (including South Africa’s Protection of Personal Information Act, POPIA), you may have the right to ask what personal information we hold about you, and to ask for it to be corrected or deleted. To make such a request, contact us through the Contact Us page.
