For individual website and app users, this Privacy Policy explains how iBlogNigeria may collect, use, and disclose information when you visit our website or when you use any website or app that uses iBlogNigeria Services.

Publishers and Merchants and other clients may also have their own policies that govern how they collect, use, and share data. These policies may differ from iBlogNigeria‘s policies described in this Privacy Policy. Please consult the privacy policies of the websites you visit and apps you use to become familiar with their privacy practices and to learn about any choices that these companies may offer with respect to their information practices. In addition, any website containing our Services may contain links to websites or content operated and maintained by third parties, over which we have no control. We encourage you to review the privacy policy of a third-party website before disclosing any information to the website.

1. Information Collection and Use

iBlogNigeria collects data in a variety of ways – including through the use of log files, pixel tags, cookies, and/or similar technologies. Examples of the types of data that we collect are:

• Browser information (e.g. URL, browser type, ‘click through’ data);
• Ad reporting or delivery data (e.g. size/type of ad, ad impressions, location/format of ad, data about interactions with the ad);
• Device-type information (e.g. screen dimensions, device brand and model);
• Information about your activities on our website and Services.

We may combine information that does not directly identify an individual with data collected from other sources and disclose the combined information to participating publishers, advertisers and ad networks so that they can determine whether to bid on ad inventory and in order to improve the relevance of the advertising presented to users. We also use the information we collect to host, operate, maintain, secure, and further develop and improve our Services, such as to keep track of advertising delivery and to measure the effectiveness of advertising delivered through our Services, and investigate compliance with iBlogNigeria‘s policies and terms and conditions.

iBlogNigeria does not engage in activities that require parental notice or consent under the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA).
