About the site
E-Gambia is an independent information portal about The Gambia. It is not a government website and is not affiliated with the Government of The Gambia, GIEPA, the Gambia Tourism Board, or any other ministry, agency, or political body. Pages on the site are general orientations; they do not constitute professional advice. See the disclaimer for more.

Intellectual property
The text, structure, design, code, and visual identity of E-Gambia are protected by copyright and other applicable laws and are owned by the operator of the site or used under licence. Brand names of third parties referenced on the site (for example GIEPA, Banjul International Airport, OpenStreetMap, Google) belong to their respective owners.
You may quote short passages with attribution and a link back to the source page. For longer reuse, syndication, or commercial use, please write to contact@egambia.com.
External links
The site links to external websites for context — for example, ministries, embassies, and reference pages from third parties. We do not control the content of those sites and are not responsible for it. Following an external link is at your own discretion.
No professional advice
Pages on E-Gambia are written for general orientation. They are not legal, tax, financial, medical, immigration, or investment advice. If you need advice that fits your situation, consult a qualified professional with current knowledge of the relevant law and circumstances.
Accuracy and availability
We try to keep pages accurate and up to date, and each substantive page carries a "last reviewed" date. However, the country, its institutions, and conditions on the ground change. We do not warrant that any page is correct, complete, or current at the moment you read it. Visa rules, fees, opening hours, and similar facts should always be confirmed with the relevant institution.
The site is provided on an "as is" and "as available" basis. We may update, add, remove, or rearrange pages at any time without notice.
Limitation of liability
To the fullest extent permitted by law, the operators of E-Gambia, our contributors, and our service providers are not liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages arising from your use of, or inability to use, the site or any pages linked from it. This includes — without limitation — losses arising from travel decisions, business decisions, missed appointments, or any reliance on information found on the site.
Nothing in these terms excludes liability that cannot be excluded under applicable law, including liability for fraud or for death or personal injury caused by negligence.
Privacy and cookies
Your use of the site is also governed by our privacy policy and cookies notice, which describe what data is collected and how it is used.
Advertising
The site is supported by display advertising, including ads served through Google AdSense. Inclusion of an advertisement does not constitute an endorsement. You should evaluate any product or service on its own merits before acting on an ad.
Governing law
These terms are governed by the laws of [Jurisdiction]. Disputes arising in connection with the site or these terms will be resolved in the courts of [Jurisdiction], unless mandatory consumer-protection laws in your country of residence give you a different right.
Changes to these terms
We may update these terms from time to time. The "last reviewed" date at the top of this page reflects the most recent revision. Continued use of the site after a revision means you accept the updated terms. Material changes are noted on the site updates page.
