Social Media Privacy Policy

African Insight encourages your comments on our social media posts and we hope you will join the discussions; however, we may not be able to respond to every comment and we don’t review comments before they’re posted. We also expect a high level of civility; mutual respect is a must.  The use of profanity or abusive language will not be allowed. Comments that are deemed inappropriate will be deleted.

Here is our complete policy in legal language:
