We think carefully about our use of personal data, and below you can find the details of what we do to protect your privacy. This policy covers, among other topics:
– Information about your rights and our obligations

What Personal Data We Collect And How We Use It
Personal data is any information about you by which you can be identified. This can include information such as your name, date of birth, email address, postal address, phone number, mobile number; debit card details; information about your device (such as the IP address, which is a numerical code to identify your device that can provide information about the country, region or city where you are based); and information relating to your personal circumstances and how you use our websites, apps, social media platforms and services.
Depending on the particular service that you want to access on our Platform, some of these personal data may or may not be required. For instance, When you register for Does2Leak Online Account we request for your name; your email address; some limited data from your social media profile if you have signed in to your Does2Leak Online Account using your social media details; and your photograph, if you add one to your profile page. You can choose to add a username to your profile page and you can use this when posting content or comments on our websites. We may assign you a unique ID number that we use to recognise you when you are signed in to our services.
When you use our websites or apps we may also use cookies or similar technology to collect extra data, including your IP address and which can provide information about the country, region or city where you are based; your browsing history of the content you have visited on our websites, apps and social media platforms, including information on how you were referred to our websites, apps and social media platforms via another website; and details of your devices, for example, the unique device ID, unique advertising ID and browsers used to access our content.
Some of our services may give you the option of providing more information about your preferences, so that we can tailor your experience. Signing up for membership or a subscription may also mean you need to provide other details such as your address details.
We will not collect special categories of data – such as information about your race, political opinions, religion, health or sexual orientation – unless you have chosen to provide that information to us.
We collect personal data when you sign up for our services and when you browse our websites, apps and social media platforms. This information is used to provide our journalism and other services, display advertising and analyse how visitors use our websites, apps and social media platforms.
When you sign in to our websites, apps and social media platforms using your Facebook login details, you give permission to Facebook to share with us your email address and certain aspects of your Facebook profile if you have made these public on your Facebook profile. This only includes your first and last name, age range, link to your Facebook profile and profile picture. We do not have access to updates on your Facebook profile.

This only includes your first and last name, your email address and whether your email address has been validated, your age range, a link to your Google profile and, if you have one, your profile picture.
We will then use this information to form a profile for your Does2Leak Online Account. If you remove our app from your Facebook settings, or if you remove the Does2Leak Online Newspaper App from your Google settings, we will no longer have access to this data. However, we will still have the information that we received when you first set up your Does2Leak Online account using your Facebook or Google login.

Where it is necessary for us to understand our readers, promote our services and operate our websites, apps and social media platforms efficiently for the creation, publication and distribution of news, media and related journalistic content both online and in print form, globally.
Performance of a contract with you (or in order to take steps prior to entering into a contract with you): For example, where you have purchased a subscription from us and we need to use your contact details and payment information in order to process your order and deliver your subscription.
Compliance With Law:
This Privacy Policy is made pursuant to the Nigeria Data Protection Regulation (2019) and other relevant Nigerian laws, regulations or international conventions applicable to Nigeria.

We may have a legal obligation to use or keep your personal information.
Personal Data That We Receive About You From Other Organisations
When you sign up to any of our services we may add to the personal data you give us by combining it with information shared with us by other trusted organisations. This includes, for example, information about your location. We may also add information to improve the accuracy of your delivery address when we send out mail. We may also obtain information from partners whose offers we include in some of our marketing communications and we use this information to ensure that we do not send you irrelevant marketing.
We also use information on the content you have viewed on our websites, apps and social media platforms as well as your interaction with the content to add you to groups with similar interests and preferences, so that we can make our online advertising more relevant. Sometimes we use data about your interests or demographics that third parties have collected from you online to add to these groups.

Security Of Your Personal Data
We have implemented appropriate technical and organisational controls to protect your personal data against unauthorised processing and against accidental loss, damage or destruction. You are responsible for choosing a secure password when we ask you to set up a password to access parts of our websites, apps and social media platforms. You should keep this password confidential and you should choose a password that you do not use on any other site. You should not share your password with anyone else, including anyone who works for us. Unfortunately, sending information via the internet is not completely secure. Although we will do our best to protect your personal data once with us, we cannot guarantee the security of any personal data sent to our websites, apps and social media platforms while still in transit and so you provide it at your own risk.
To prevent unauthorized access to your information, we have implemented strong controls and security safeguards at the technical and operational levels. These websites use Secure Sockets Layer/Transport Layer Security (SSL/TLS) to ensure secure transmission of your personal data. You should see the padlock symbol in your URL address bar once you are successfully logged into the platform. The URL address will also start with https:// depicting a secure webpage. SSL applies encryption between two points such as your PC and the connecting server. Any data transmitted during the session will be encrypted before transmission and decrypted at the receiving end. This is to ensure that data cannot be read during transmission. Measures have also been taken to comply with global Information Security Management Systems (ISMS) we therefore have put in place digital and physical security measures to limit or eliminate possibilities of data privacy breach incidents.
We do not share your personal data with other people or organisations that are not directly linked to us except under the following circumstances:
We may share your data with other organisations that provide services on our behalf such as dealing with online payments and other forms of payment processing, i.e credit or debit card transactions and preventing fraud.
We may also share your data with our advertising partners.
We may reveal your personal data to any law enforcement agency, court, regulator, government authority or other organisation if we are required to do so to meet a legal or regulatory obligation, or otherwise to protect our rights or the rights of anyone else.
We may reveal your personal data to any other organisation that buys, or to which we transfer all, or substantially all, of our assets and business. If this sale or transfer takes place, we will use reasonable efforts to try to make sure that the organisation we transfer your personal data to uses it in line with our privacy policy.
Any organisations which access your data in the course of providing services on our behalf will be governed by strict contractual restrictions to make sure that they protect your data and keep to all data privacy laws that apply. We may also independently audit these service providers to make sure that they meet our standards.
We will not share your personal data with anyone else for their own marketing purposes unless we have your permission to do so.
International Data Transfers
Data we collect may be transferred to, stored and processed in any country or territory where one or more of our companies or service providers are based or have facilities. While other countries or territories may not have the same standards of data protection as those in Nigeria, we will continue to protect personal data that we transfer in line with this privacy policy.
We will only transfer your personal data to countries that have been found to provide an adequate level of protection for personal data as are available in Nigeria.
How Long We Keep Your Personal Data
We keep your personal data for only as long as we need to. How long we need your personal data depends on what we are using it for, as set out in this privacy policy. We may also need to keep your personal data for accounting purposes, for example, where you have bought a subscription. If we no longer need your data, we will delete it or make it anonymous by removing all details that identify you. If we have asked for your permission to process your personal data and we have no other lawful grounds to continue with that processing, and you withdraw your permission, we will delete your personal data. However, when you unsubscribe from marketing communications, we will keep your email address to ensure that we do not send you any marketing in future.
How We May Contact You
Service Communications
From time to time we may send you service emails, Marketing communications and editorial newsletters. If we have your permission, we may send you materials we think may interest you, such as new offers and updates. Depending on your marketing preferences, this may be by email, phone, SMS or post.
We offer a range of editorial newsletters. You can manage your subscription to these emails through your profile page when you are signed in to your account. You can decide not to receive these emails at any time and will be able to “unsubscribe” directly by clicking a link in the email or through your email preferences in the tab “Emails and marketing” when you are signed in to your account.

Responding To Your Queries Or Complaints
If you have raised a query or a complaint with us, we may contact you to answer your query or to resolve your complaint.
Cookies And Similar Technology
Cookies are small files placed on your computer’s hard drive that enables the website to identify your computer as you view different pages. Cookies allow websites and applications to store your preferences in order to present contents, options or functions that are specific to you. Like most interactive websites, our websites use cookies to enable the tracking of your activity for the duration of a session. Our websites use only encrypted session cookies which are erased either after a predefined timeout period or once the user logs out of the platform and closes the browser. Session cookies do not collect information from the user’s computer. They will typically store information in the form of a session identification that does not personally identify the user. When you visit our websites or when you use our apps, we may collect personal data from you automatically using cookies or similar technology.
Online Advertising
Advertisement on our websites, apps and social media platforms that is based on cookies and similar technology
We use personalised online advertising on our websites, apps and social media platforms. This allows us to deliver more relevant advertisement to people who visit our websites, apps and social media platforms. It works by showing you adverts that are based on your browsing patterns and the way you have interacted with our websites, apps and social media platforms. It then shows you adverts which we believe may interest you.
When you browse our websites, apps and social media platforms or use our apps, some of the cookies and similar technology we place on your device are advertising cookies, so we can understand what sort of pages you are interested in. We can then display advertising on your browser based on these interests. For instance if you have been reading a lot of food and drink articles, we may show you more advertisements for food and drink.
We do not collect or use information such as your name, email address, postal address or phone number for personalised online advertising.
We may also share online data collected through cookies and similar technology with our advertising partners. This means that when you are on another website, you may be shown advertising based on your browsing patterns on our websites, apps and social media platform. We may also show you advertising on our websites, apps and social media platforms based on your browsing patterns on other sites that we have obtained from our advertising partners.
Online retargeting is another form of online advertising that allows us and some of our advertising partners to show you advertising based on your browsing patterns and interactions with a site away from our websites. For example, if you have visited the website of an online clothes shop, you may start seeing adverts from that same shopping site displaying special offers or showing you the products you were browsing. This allows companies to advertise to you if you leave their website without making a purchase.
Advertising That We Place On Our Websites, Apps And Social Media Platforms Or On Other Sites
We also use personalised online advertising to promote our own products and services. This means that you may see advertising for our products and services on our websites, apps and social media platforms and when you are on other third party websites, including social media platforms.
