Your content
On our subscription page, you can easily subscribe to only the content that interests you. As there are many types of interests, there are also many possibilities on the subscription page. Here is a short guide on to how get what YOU want:

I want all the news from my country.
- Do like this: Pick your region/country/countries from the list. Ignore the topics. Proceed to media and choose "all media". Proceed.

I want all the news from my topic of interest.
- Do like this: Ignore the countries/regions list and go directly to the topics list. Choose your topics and proceed to media, choosing "all media". Proceed.

I want all the news from my country AND my topic of interest.
- Do like this: Pick your region/country/countries from the list. Proceed to topics and select. Now comes the "tricky part". Let's say you have chosen Algeria and Agriculture. If you want all articles on Algeria AND all articles on Agriculture, then choose an "Inclusive" subscription. If you only want articles that are about agriculture in Algeria, choose the "exclusive" subscription. Proceed.

I can't find my option / I don't understand the form.
- If your desired subscription is not to be found on the page, use the "Other" field of the form to explain your desires and we'll fix it manually. Please note that we can only handle subscription orders that have gone through the form. Go to "Other" to specify your desires and after that, be sure to fill in your personal information. We will look through your order once you have confirmed it through the e-mail you will receive.
You can use the "Other" field to order subscriptions that are somewhat complicated, subscriptions to subcategories or subscriptions to only high-priority items. You may also use it if you find the form too complicated.

*What is professional and non-professional use?

afrol News freely decides on what the company considers "professional use" of its content from case to case. In general, however, "non-professional use" is considered read-only use by non-media individuals and non-media institutions.

"Professional use" includes all forms of reproduction of entire articles, parts of articles and of their content. All use by any kind of media and their employees is considered "professional", including read-only use. Also NGOs, institutions and companies reproducing afrol News content in internal publications (including newsletters and newsgroups) are within our definition of "professional users". Finally, also so-called "fair use" reproductions have to be cleared with afrol News in advance.

Scientific publications and school works are however considered outside our "professional use" definition when reciting lesser parts of an afrol News item, using proper references.

"Professional users", including journalists, are requested to register properly with afrol News. We are regularly controlling whether content is received on false conditions.

There are special conditions for independent media operating in Africa, which may have rights to freely receive and reproduce materials from afrol News and cooperating media due to certain conditions. In this case, please contact afrol News editors.
