Terms of Use
Conditions for reading, using and sharing African Ranked editorial material and reporting corrections.
About African Ranked
African Ranked publishes articles, rankings and practical guides at https://africanranked.com. The operator's official contact is info@africanranked.com. These conditions describe ordinary use of the website and its editorial material.
General information and changing facts
The website provides general editorial information. Travel conditions, entry requirements, prices, regulations, services and other time-sensitive facts can change after an article is published. Check authoritative, current sources before making a consequential decision. Editorial material is not a substitute for advice appropriate to your own circumstances from a qualified professional.
We aim to provide useful, sourced information. Publication does not guarantee that an article is complete, continuously updated or suitable for every reader's situation. Links and verification dates help explain the evidence used at the time of reporting.
Rankings and editorial judgments
Rankings can combine defined criteria, published datasets and editorial judgments. Read the methodology and limitations provided in the individual article. A ranking is not a permanent assessment, a certification, an investment recommendation or a promise about a destination, organisation or service.
A change of dataset, observation year or method may change the order. Readers should compare the measures and sources rather than assume that lists using different methods answer the same question.
Corrections and feedback
Send factual corrections or concerns to info@africanranked.com. Identify the article URL, the statement concerned and supporting information where available. Reports can be assessed against the evidence; submitting a request does not guarantee a particular editorial outcome or an immediate response.
Content and intellectual property
Text, photographs, illustrations, design elements, software and marks are subject to the rights of their respective holders. Some material is licensed from third parties. A publication credit is not a transfer of copyright or a grant of unrestricted reuse.
Use content only as permitted by applicable law, an applicable licence or permission from the relevant rights holder. Ordinary linking and sharing tools can be used without presenting yourself as the publisher or implying an endorsement. Substantial republication requires an appropriate legal basis or permission.
External resources and commercial relationships
External links provide additional context or access to another service. Their content, availability and terms can change independently of African Ranked. A link does not itself guarantee the accuracy, safety or suitability of an outside resource.
Advertising, sponsorships or affiliate relationships may be used as the publication develops. Any material relationship is to be identified in the relevant article or placement. Review the disclosure associated with a placement before acting on it.
Acceptable use
Do not disrupt the website, attempt unauthorised access to staff services, impersonate another person, submit harmful material or bypass security controls. Automated access must not interfere with normal readers or service operation. Published content remains available subject to the site's ordinary access and technical safeguards.
Privacy and communications
The Privacy Policy explains information processing, optional analytics and newsletter consent. Cookies & Analytics explains the analytics choice and how to change it. Newsletter registration, when available, requires consent and email confirmation. No purchase or subscription is required to decline optional analytics.
Changes and applicable rights
Website features and these conditions may be updated as the publication develops. Nothing in these conditions is intended to remove rights or obligations that cannot lawfully be excluded. Questions about use of the website can be sent to info@africanranked.com.
