This page explains what happens to your information when you read Wildlife Kenya. We keep this simple because most visitors just want to browse stories about Kenya travel and wildlife without wondering where their data ends up.
What We Collect
When you visit wildlife-kenya.org, some technical information is gathered automatically. This includes things like your browser type, the pages you view, how long you stay, and the site that referred you here. This comes from standard analytics tools, not from anything you type in.
We also use cookies. Some are needed for the site to function properly, such as remembering a display preference. Others help us understand which articles about Kenya’s parks, reserves, and travel routes get read the most.
If you leave a comment, fill out a contact form, or subscribe to any update we may offer, we collect whatever you submit — typically a name and an email address, along with the message itself.
Why We Collect It
Analytics data helps us see which safari guides, park write-ups, or travel tips are actually useful to readers, so we can write more of what people want and less of what nobody reads. Cookies keep basic site functions working. Anything submitted directly, like a comment or a question, is used only to respond to you or to publish the comment if that’s what it was meant for.
How Long We Keep It
Analytics records are generally retained for a limited period before being aggregated or discarded, depending on the tool provider’s own settings. Comments and messages are kept as long as they remain relevant to the site — a published comment stays with its article, while a private message is kept only as long as needed to deal with it.
Third Parties Involved
We rely on external analytics and hosting services to run this site. These providers process technical data such as IP addresses and browser information on our behalf, under their own privacy terms. We do not sell reader information to advertisers or data brokers, and we do not share comment or message content with anyone outside of what’s needed to keep the site running.
Your Rights
You can generally ask to see what personal information we hold about you, ask us to correct it if it’s wrong, or ask us to delete it. You can also object to certain kinds of processing, such as being tracked by non-essential cookies, and most browsers let you block or clear cookies directly through their settings.
These rights apply within the limits of what a small, independent site like this one can practically do — we don’t operate large-scale data systems, so most requests can be handled directly and fairly quickly.
How to Make a Request
If you want to ask about your data, request a correction, or have something removed, use the contact channel listed elsewhere on this site. Describe what you’re asking for and, if it relates to a comment or submission, include enough detail — such as the article or approximate date — so we can find it.
Changes to This Policy
If how we handle data changes, this page will be updated to reflect that. Checking back occasionally is the simplest way to stay informed.
