Vibes Uncut Media (“we”, “us”, “our”) operates the website vibesuncutmedia.com and publishes original news, analysis, and video content across social platforms. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect when you visit our website or interact with our content, how we use it, and the rights you have over that information.

1. Who We Are

Vibes Uncut Media is an independent African news and analysis brand based in Accra, Ghana. We are the data controller for any personal information we process through this website. You can reach us at hello@vibesuncutmedia.com for any privacy-related questions or requests.

2. Information We Collect

We collect the minimum amount of information necessary to operate the site and understand our audience:

  • Technical data: Your IP address, browser type, device type, operating system, referring URL, pages visited, and time spent on the site. This is collected automatically through standard server logs and analytics tools.
  • Comments and contact data: If you leave a comment or send us a message, we collect the name, email address, and any content you voluntarily submit.
  • Cookies: We use cookies and similar technologies to keep the site functioning, remember preferences, and measure traffic. You can disable cookies in your browser at any time.

We do not ask for, and do not knowingly collect, sensitive personal data such as government identification numbers, financial account details, or health information.

3. How We Use Information

We use the information we collect to:

  • Operate, secure, and improve the website and our editorial output
  • Understand which stories resonate with our audience and in which regions
  • Respond to comments, messages, and reader enquiries
  • Comply with legal obligations under Ghana’s Data Protection Act, 2012 (Act 843), and applicable international frameworks

4. Third-Party Services

We do not sell your personal information. We may share limited, non-identifying data with the following categories of service providers strictly to operate the site:

  • Hosting and content delivery: Our site is hosted on standard web infrastructure and delivered via Amazon CloudFront.
  • Analytics: We use standard web analytics to understand aggregate traffic patterns. Analytics providers may set their own cookies governed by their own privacy policies.
  • Social platforms: When you click through to our YouTube, Facebook, Instagram, X, or TikTok accounts, those platforms’ privacy policies apply to your activity on their services. We do not receive your personal data from those platforms beyond aggregated audience statistics.

5. How Long We Keep Data

Server logs are retained for up to 90 days. Comments and contact messages are retained for as long as the associated content remains published, or until you ask us to delete them. Aggregated analytics data may be retained indefinitely in anonymised form.

6. Your Rights

Under Ghana’s Data Protection Act, 2012 (Act 843), and — where applicable — the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and the UK GDPR, you have the right to:

  • Request a copy of the personal data we hold about you
  • Request that we correct inaccurate or incomplete data
  • Request that we delete your personal data, subject to legal retention obligations
  • Object to, or restrict, our processing of your personal data
  • Withdraw consent at any time, where we rely on consent to process your data
  • Lodge a complaint with Ghana’s Data Protection Commission or your local supervisory authority

To exercise any of these rights, email hello@vibesuncutmedia.com. We will respond within 30 days.

7. Children

Our content is intended for a general adult audience. We do not knowingly collect personal data from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided us with personal data, please contact us and we will delete it.

8. Security

We use standard industry safeguards — HTTPS encryption, access controls, and strong authentication — to protect information processed through this site. No online service can be perfectly secure, however, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

9. International Transfers

Our hosting and content delivery infrastructure may process data outside Ghana, including in the United States and the European Union. Where your data is transferred internationally, we rely on standard contractual clauses and the safeguards provided by our infrastructure partners.

10. Changes To This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will revise the “Last updated” date at the top of this page. Material changes will be highlighted on the homepage for at least 14 days.
