We use cookies to help our site work securely and smoothly. Some cookies are strictly necessary for essential functions, such as keeping your account safe or remembering your settings. With your consent, we also use cookies to understand how our site is used, to improve performance, and to personalise content and ads. You can change your preferences at any time.
This Cookie Policy forms part of our Privacy Policy which can be viewed here
What are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files stored on your device (computer, tablet, phone) when you visit a website. They help the site to work properly, remember your preferences and provide information to improve your browsing experience.
MTN use cookies and other similar technologies which also store or provide access to information stored in your devices including clear gifs (also called Web Beacons and Web Bugs), APIs and Plug Ins which permit the identification and tracking of a device. Additionally, we may use IP address information to count and track aggregate visits to the website, to help diagnose problems with our server, and to administer the website. We do not link IP addresses to anything personally identifiable, so while a particular user’s session can be tracked, the user remains completely anonymous.
For the purposes of this policy, the term “cookies” refers to all technologies that store or access information on a user’s device, all of which are subject to the same legal requirements.
Consent for Use of Cookies
In most cases, cookies cannot be made active without consent. When you first visit our website, you will see a cookie banner displayed at the bottom of the page. This banner gives you the option to accept all cookies, reject all cookies (except for 'strictly necessary' ones) or to select only certain types (manage preferences).
When you set your cookie preferences on our site, your choice is saved anonymously through our consent management tool. This record helps us remember your settings so you don’t need to update them every time you visit. We never link this record to your name or contact details.
Detailed explanations for each cookie category and what information they collect are listed below.
Rejection of Non-Essential Cookies
You may choose to reject non-essential cookies at any time. This means only cookies that are strictly necessary for the operation of our website will remain active. It is important to note, however, that by rejecting certain cookies you may be unable to fully access the offerings on this website.
Note: if you have previously consented to cookies on our site, you may update your preferences at any time by using the "Manage Cookies" tab located at the bottom of each page. You may also clear cookies in your browser settings and revisit the site; this will trigger the cookie banner to reappear, allowing you to continue browsing without providing consent.
