Introduction
Transparency about who owns, operates and funds a digital platform helps customers, readers, partners and other stakeholders understand who stands behind the services they use.
This page explains the ownership and operating structure of Sizzle Social.
Who Owns Sizzle Social?
Owned and Operated by Sizzle Digital Technologies
Sizzle Social is owned and operated under Sizzle Digital Technologies, a registered Nigerian digital technology business.
Sizzle Digital Technologies develops and operates digital products, platforms and technology-driven services serving individuals, creators, businesses, agencies and other online users.
Sizzle Social operates as one of the digital platforms within this wider technology ecosystem.
Our Business Structure
Nigerian-Owned and Independently Operated
Sizzle Social is a privately owned Nigerian business platform.
The operating business, Sizzle Digital Technologies, is registered in Nigeria with the Corporate Affairs Commission (“CAC”) as a Business Name.
Sizzle Social is not operated by:
Meta;
Instagram;
Facebook;
TikTok;
YouTube;
Google;
X;
LinkedIn;
Telegram; or
any other social media platform referenced within our Services.
References to third-party platforms are used to describe the platforms to which particular Services relate and do not indicate ownership, sponsorship or endorsement.
The Sizzle Ecosystem
Part of a Wider Digital Technology Operation
Sizzle Social operates alongside other digital products and services developed under the wider Sizzle ecosystem.
Sizzle Digital Technologies may operate or develop businesses, platforms and services relating to areas such as:
software;
digital platforms;
web and mobile technology;
digital marketing;
online media;
payment technology;
SaaS products;
business tools; and
other technology-driven services.
Each product or brand may have its own purpose, website, Services and legal policies while operating within the broader business structure.
How Sizzle Social Is Funded
Operating Revenue
Sizzle Social is principally funded through revenue generated from its own business activities.
Revenue may arise from areas including:
social media growth Services;
Digital Accounts and Digital Products;
reseller Services;
API usage;
platform-related Services; and
other products or features offered through Sizzle Social.
Revenue generated through the business may be reinvested into:
technology infrastructure;
Platform development;
customer support;
security;
payment systems;
product development;
marketing;
content;
operational improvements; and
business growth.
Commercial Independence
Sizzle Social’s editorial, product and operational decisions are made within its own business structure.
Where Sizzle Social works with:
Payment Providers;
hosting companies;
technology vendors;
service suppliers;
contractors;
marketing platforms; or
other commercial partners,
those relationships do not, by themselves, give the provider ownership or control of Sizzle Social.
Service Suppliers and Partners
Third-Party Services Do Not Equal Ownership
Like many technology platforms, Sizzle Social may depend on external providers for parts of its operations.
These may include providers of:
payment processing;
cloud infrastructure;
email delivery;
analytics;
communications;
cybersecurity;
social media Services;
software; or
other technology.
A commercial or technical relationship with an external provider does not mean that the provider owns Sizzle Social.
Likewise, the use of a company’s technology, API or infrastructure does not necessarily indicate a partnership, endorsement or corporate affiliation.
Editorial Ownership
Sizzle Social Content
Editorial content published directly under the Sizzle Social name is managed by Sizzle Social as part of its wider content and educational activities.
Our editorial processes are explained in the Sizzle Social Publishing Principles.
Commercial ownership does not remove our obligation to distinguish factual information from promotional claims and to maintain appropriate publishing standards.
Intellectual Property
Brand and Platform Rights
Rights relating to Sizzle Social branding, original website content, software, documentation and other proprietary materials are governed by applicable intellectual-property law and the Intellectual Property & Copyright Policy.
The fact that third-party social media names or trademarks appear on Sizzle Social does not mean those rights belong to Sizzle Social.
Independence of Recommendations
Commercial Interests and Transparency
Sizzle Social is a commercial business and may publish content relating to products or Services that it provides.
Where recommendations concern Sizzle Social’s own Services, readers should understand that Sizzle Social has a commercial interest in those Services.
This does not change our commitment to:
accurate factual claims;
responsible product descriptions;
disclosure where appropriate;
avoiding unsupported guarantees; and
correcting material errors.
Our wider editorial standards are set out in the Publishing Principles.
No Political Ownership or Editorial Control
Operational Independence
Sizzle Social does not operate as a political party, political campaign organisation or government agency.
Our business and editorial activities are managed independently as part of Sizzle Digital Technologies.
Commercial content, educational articles and Platform operations are determined according to Sizzle Social’s business objectives, editorial standards, User needs and applicable law.
Why Ownership Transparency Matters
Clear ownership information helps users understand:
who operates the Platform;
who is responsible for Sizzle Social Services;
the business behind published content;
how the Platform is commercially sustained;
the distinction between Sizzle Social and independent social media companies; and
where accountability for Sizzle Social operations ultimately sits.
Publishing this information is part of our wider commitment to transparency across our Platform and editorial operations.

Our Commitment to Transparency
Sizzle Social is built and operated as an independent Nigerian digital platform under Sizzle Digital Technologies.
We believe users should be able to identify the business responsible for the Platform they use, understand the commercial interests behind the content they read and distinguish Sizzle Social from the independent technology and social media companies whose platforms may be referenced throughout our Services.
We will continue to update this page where a material change to Sizzle Social’s ownership or operating structure makes an update necessary.
