This Privacy Policy explains how 1105 Media Ltd ("we," "us," "our") collects, uses, and protects information when you visit Insight by CitiPlug (the "Site"). We aim to handle your data in line with the Nigeria Data Protection Act (NDPA) 2023 and generally accepted data protection principles.
1. Information We Collect

Information collected automatically: when you visit the Site, we (and our analytics and advertising partners) may automatically collect data such as your IP address, approximate location (city/country level), device and browser type, pages viewed, referring site, and time spent on the Site. This powers the analytics dashboard we use internally to understand readership — covering visits, page views, referrers, general location, and engagement with individual articles.
2. Cookies and Similar Technologies
The Site uses cookies and similar technologies for core functionality, analytics, and advertising. Our advertising partners, including Google AdSense, may use cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this and other websites. You can control cookies through your browser settings; note that disabling cookies may affect how parts of the Site function.

- To operate, maintain, and improve the Site and its content.
- To send newsletter updates to subscribers who have opted in.
- To measure readership and engagement across articles and sections.
- To serve relevant advertising, including through automated ad networks.
- To detect and prevent abuse, fraud, or security issues.
4. How We Share Information
We do not sell your personal information. We may share limited data with:
- Service providers who help us operate the Site (such as our hosting provider, Supabase for data storage, and our content management system).
- Advertising and analytics partners, who may set their own cookies subject to their respective privacy policies.
- Authorities, where required by Nigerian law or in response to a valid legal request.
