In Canada, we rely on your knowledge and consent, which may be express (for example, ticking a box to receive our newsletter) or implied (for example, sending us an enquiry and expecting a reply). We send commercial electronic messages to Canadian recipients only in line with Canada’s Anti-Spam Legislation (CASL), and every message includes an unsubscribe option.
4. Cookies
The Website uses cookies and similar technologies. Strictly necessary cookies keep the site working. Analytics cookies (such as [Google Analytics]) help us understand how the site is used and are set only with your consent through our cookie banner. You can change your choices at any time through the banner or your browser settings.
5. Who we share it with
We do not sell personal information. We share it only with:

- service providers who host, maintain or secure the Website, provide email, CRM or cloud storage, under contracts requiring confidentiality and security;
- professional advisers such as lawyers and accountants;
- authorities, where required by law or to protect our rights.
6. International transfers
Because we operate in Canada and Nigeria and use cloud providers, your information may be stored or accessed in Canada, Nigeria, the United Kingdom, the European Union or the United States. Where personal data leaves Nigeria, we transfer it only on a basis permitted by the NDPA, such as adequate protection in the destination country, appropriate safeguards in our contracts, or your consent. Information processed outside Canada may be subject to the laws of the country where it is held.
7. How long we keep it
- Enquiries that do not become projects: up to 2 years after last contact.
- Client and project records: for the length of the relationship plus up to 7 years, to meet tax and legal requirements.
- Unsuccessful job applications: up to 12 months, unless you agree to a longer period.
- Marketing data: until you unsubscribe or withdraw consent.
8. How we protect it
We use administrative, technical and physical safeguards appropriate to the sensitivity of the information, including encryption in transit (HTTPS), access controls, multi-factor authentication on business systems and staff confidentiality obligations. If a breach creates a real risk of significant harm (Canada) or is likely to result in a risk to your rights (Nigeria), we will notify you and the relevant regulator as the law requires, including notifying the Nigeria Data Protection Commission within 72 hours where applicable.
