FAQ

Common questions

Does my business need to comply with the NDPA?
If you collect or process the personal data of people in Nigeria, you very likely have obligations under the Nigeria Data Protection Act. We assess your exposure and set you up to comply.
What is a data-processing agreement?
It is a contract governing how a service provider handles personal data on your behalf. It is often legally required and protects both parties — we draft and review them.
What should I do after a data breach?
Act quickly: contain the incident, assess what was affected and meet any notification obligations. We guide you through the correct response.
