Privacy Policy
This policy explains what information Aardvark.com collects when you visit the site, how it's used, and the choices available to you.
Information we collect
We collect information in two ways: information you give us directly, such as your name and email address when you use the contact form or subscribe to our newsletter, and information collected automatically through cookies and analytics tools, such as pages visited, time on site, browser type, and general location derived from IP address.
Cookies
Aardvark.com uses cookies to remember basic preferences and to support analytics and advertising. You can disable cookies through your browser settings, though some site features may not work as expected without them.
Google Analytics
We use Google Analytics 4 to understand how visitors use the site in aggregate. Google Analytics collects data such as pages viewed, session duration, and device type. This data is processed under Google's own privacy terms. You can opt out using the Google Analytics opt-out browser add-on.
Advertising: Revive Adserver
We serve display advertising through Revive Adserver. Ad zones on this site may set cookies to measure impressions and avoid showing the same ad repeatedly. We do not control third-party advertiser tracking beyond what Revive Adserver's own settings allow.
Newsletter
If you sign up for our newsletter, we collect your first name, last name, and email address through our form provider. We use this only to send the newsletter and related site updates. You can unsubscribe at any time using the link in every email.
Third-party links
Articles and our RSS source cards link to outside publications, including Porini, African Safaris, and Rhino Africa. We aren't responsible for the privacy practices of sites we link to, and we encourage you to review their policies separately.
Your rights
- You can request a copy of the personal data we hold about you.
- You can request correction or deletion of your personal data.
- You can opt out of marketing emails at any time.
- You can disable cookies through your browser at any time.
Children's privacy
Aardvark.com is intended for a general audience, including students and children researching with a parent or teacher. We do not knowingly collect personal information directly from children without appropriate consent.
