Children’s and Minors’ Privacy
Some training or empowerment programmes may be open to applicants below the age of 18. In such cases, we may require the consent or involvement of a parent, guardian, school, sponsor or other legally authorized representative.
Information concerning a minor will be limited to what is reasonably necessary for registration, eligibility, safety, participation, communication, safeguarding and programme administration.
Parents or guardians who believe a minor has submitted personal information without appropriate authorization should contact us promptly.
Photography, Video and Testimonials
Photographs and videos may be taken during academy activities, events, workshops, exhibitions or empowerment programmes for documentation, reporting, publicity and educational purposes.
Where appropriate, we will provide notice or seek permission before using an identifiable person’s image or testimonial for promotional purposes.
Crowd or general event images may be treated differently from focused portraits. Where you have a reasonable concern about a published image, contact us with sufficient information to identify the material.
Marketing and Promotional Messages
We may send information about products, academy admissions, events, collections, offers and programmes where:
- You expressly requested or consented to such communication.
- You are an existing customer and the communication is lawfully related to similar services.
- Another lawful basis permits the communication.
You can opt out through an unsubscribe mechanism where provided or by contacting us. Operational messages concerning an active order, application, class, event or programme may continue even after promotional communication is declined.
International Data Transfers
Some service providers may store or process information outside Nigeria. This may occur through website hosting, cloud services, email delivery, communications, payment services or analytics platforms.
Where personal information is transferred internationally, we will seek to use an appropriate legal mechanism and reasonable safeguards, having regard to the nature of the information and the destination.
Third-Party Websites and Platforms
Our website may contain links to payment providers, social networks, mapping services, video platforms, event tools or partner websites.
These third parties operate under their own privacy policies and terms. We are not responsible for their independent processing practices. You should review the relevant notice before supplying information to an external service.
Changes to this Privacy Policy
We may update this policy to reflect changes in our services, systems, legal requirements or data-handling practices.
The revised policy will be published on this page with an updated effective date. Where a change is material, we may provide additional notice through the website, email, programme communication or another appropriate channel.
Continued use of our services does not replace consent where fresh consent is legally required.
Complaints and Regulatory Contact
We encourage you to contact us first so that we can review and respond to any privacy concern.
You may also have the right to submit a complaint to the Nigeria Data Protection Commission or another competent supervisory authority.
Nigeria Data Protection Commission information and complaint channels are available through the Commission’s official website.
