Data Protection

Last updated: August 12th 2025.

OpinionPadi ("we", "our", "us") is committed to protecting your personal information and complying with the Nigeria Data Protection Regulation (NDPR). This page explains the safeguards we use and the rights you have over your data.

1. Data Protection Principles

We process personal data lawfully, fairly and transparently. We collect only what is necessary for specified purposes, keep it accurate and up to date, and ensure it is stored securely.

2. How We Secure Your Data

  • Encryption for data in transit and at rest.
  • Role-based access controls and staff training.
  • Regular security reviews and vulnerability testing.
  • Hosting in secure, monitored data centres.

3. Data Retention & Deletion

We retain personal data only as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes for which it was collected, including for legal or reporting requirements. When data is no longer needed, it is deleted or anonymised.

4. Sharing & International Transfers

We do not sell your personal data. We may share limited information with service providers who support our operations—such as hosting, payments or analytics—under strict data protection agreements. Where data is transferred outside Nigeria, we ensure adequate safeguards are in place.

5. Your Rights

Under NDPR you have the right to:

  • Request access to the personal data we hold about you.
  • Request correction of inaccurate data or deletion of your data.
  • Withdraw consent or object to certain processing.
  • Request data portability.

To exercise these rights, contact us at [email protected].

6. Data Breach Procedure

In the unlikely event of a data breach, we will notify affected users and relevant authorities within 72 hours in line with NDPR requirements.

7. Updates to This Page

We may update this Data Protection statement from time to time. Significant changes will be posted here.

8. Contact & Complaints
