Privacy policy and guarantee from the Youth Express team.

Your privacy matters to us. We are committed to protecting the personal information of our users, partners, and businesses while delivering meaningful, inspiring content that supports youth empowerment and entrepreneurship.

This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and safeguard your information.

Information We Collect

In this privacy policy we have outlined how we may collect personal information when you:

  • Contact us through forms or email
  • Subscribe to newsletters or updates
  • Advertise or list a business on Youth Express
  • Engage with our content or campaigns

This may include your name, email address, business details, and other relevant contact information.

How We Use Your Information

Your information is used to:

  • Respond to enquiries and contact requests
  • Process advertising and business listings
  • Improve our content and platform experience
  • Share relevant updates aligned with our mission

Embedded content from other websites

Articles on this site may include embedded content (e.g. videos, images, articles, etc.). Embedded content from other websites behaves in the exact same way as if the visitor has visited the other website.

These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with that embedded content, including tracking your interaction with the embedded content if you have an account and are logged in to that website.

Who we share your data with

If you request a password reset, your IP address will be included in the reset email.

How long we retain your data

Our team revised our privacy policy to include every aspect of interaction with our audience. If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This is so we can recognize and approve any follow-up comments automatically instead of holding them in a moderation queue.

For users that register on our website (if any), we also store the personal information they provide in their user profile. All users can see, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (except they cannot change their username). Website administrators can also see and edit that information.

What rights you have over your data

If you have an account on this site, or have left comments, you can request to receive an exported file of the personal data we hold about you, including any data you have provided to us. You can also request that we erase any personal data we hold about you. This does not include any data we are obliged to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.

Our Commitment to Transparency

We do not sell or misuse your data. Any information shared with Youth Express is handled responsibly and securely.

We respect user trust and comply with applicable data protection laws. By using Youth Express, you agree to the terms outlined in this privacy policy.

If you have any questions about our privacy policy terms, data usage, or wish to update your information, please contact us directly.

If you edit or publish an article, an additional cookie will be saved in your browser. This cookie includes no personal data and simply indicates the post ID of the article you just edited. It expires after 1 day.
