Afrofiliate creates two persistent cookies when a consumer clicks on an advert which is sourced via Afrofiliate. These cookies exist to enable reporting of the usage of the advert redirects.
- visitorId_{PID} – this cookie records the usage by the consumer of a specific advert, within a specific advertising programme (PID).
- tag – this cookie records all the programmes for which an advert has been clicked.
These cookies could be deleted by the customer, using the techniques referenced above. However, by deleting these cookies, the consumer may not be able to benefit from rewards or discounts for purchases based on the source of the advert.

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time in order to reflect, for example, changes to the cookies we use or for other operational, legal or regulatory reasons. Please therefore re-visit this Cookie Policy regularly to stay informed about our use of cookies and related technologies.
