The information involved depends on the services you choose:

• Newsletter subscriptions: the email address and subscription details you submit.
• Accounts: sign-up details, profile information and information used to verify access.
• Journalist applications: biography, location, CV, portrait and portfolio links.
• Client services: plan selections, requests and marketplace messages.
• Donations: your selected amount and information entered during payment.

Avoid including sensitive personal information in public biographies or portfolio links.

These services use submitted information to process subscriptions, manage account access, review applications, display approved journalist profiles, connect clients with journalists and support payments.

Messages contain the details you choose to share with the other participant. Approved journalist profiles are public; consider this when preparing an application.

Cookies and browser-local storage support sign-in, security, your cookie choice and preferences such as saved articles. Essential storage remains available regardless of your optional measurement choice.

Optional audience and advertising measurement records article reads and ad impressions or clicks. It is off until you accept it. Accept all enables it; Reject all leaves it off. Ads may still appear when measurement is off.

Change your choice below or through “Cookie preferences” in the footer. Rejecting measurement also removes this site’s readership identifier from your browser.

Donations and paid plans use Stripe Checkout. Information entered on Stripe’s payment page is handled under Stripe’s privacy policy.

Articles may link to other sites or embed videos from external platforms. Following links or loading external content can involve their own storage and privacy practices. Our cookie choices control this site’s audience and ad measurement, not another provider’s policies.

Use available account and subscription controls to update your details. For access, correction, deletion or another privacy concern, contact Somalia Review and identify the service involved. Never send passwords or verification codes.

The owner must confirm retention periods, service-provider disclosures and privacy-request procedures before adopting this draft as a final policy.
