This policy explains what data chikewa.com (“the site”, “we”, “us”) collects when you visit, and what you can do about it. This is a plain-English summary, not legal advice. If you are in the EU/EEA/UK, the UK GDPR and the ePrivacy Regulations apply to your data.
Data collected from any visitor
- Standard server logs: IP address, browser type, referring page, and pages visited. Retained briefly for security and performance monitoring.
- Cookies: functional cookies required for the site to work, and advertising/analytics cookies (see the Cookies Policy).
Third parties
- Advertising (Google AdSense and similar): when the site is monetised, ads are served by third parties that may set cookies to personalise advertising. You can opt out of personalised Google advertising at adssettings.google.com and of interest-based advertising by most vendors at aboutads.info.
- Analytics: if we use analytics, we will name the provider and how to opt out here.
- Affiliate links: some outbound links are affiliate links. If you click and buy, the merchant (not us) may process your data under its own policy.

If you email us from the contact page, we store your message and address to answer it. We do not sell, rent, or share your address with third parties. You can ask us to delete it at any time.
