Links to Third-Party Websites

This Statement does not address, and we are not responsible for, the privacy, information, or other practices of any third parties, including any third party operating any website or service to which our Site links. The inclusion of a link on our Site does not imply endorsement of the linked site. We encourage you to review the privacy policies of any third-party websites you visit.

Jurisdiction and Cross-Border Transfers

Encyrex Limited is headquartered in Port Harcourt, Rivers State, Nigeria. Your personal data may be stored and processed in Nigeria or in any other country where we engage service providers (e.g., website hosting providers located outside Nigeria). By using our Services, you understand that your personal data may be transferred to countries outside of your country of residence, which may have data protection laws that differ from those of your country.

We will take appropriate measures to ensure that any such transfers comply with applicable data protection laws, including the Nigeria Data Protection Act 2023. In certain circumstances, courts, law enforcement agencies, or regulatory authorities in those other countries may be entitled to access your personal data.

Retention of Personal Data

We retain personal data for as long as needed or as otherwise consistent with the purposes for which it was collected. When determining the retention period, we consider the length of time we have an ongoing relationship with you, legitimate business purposes for which we collect and process personal data (including the defense and pursuit of legal claims), and legal obligations that require us to retain records (e.g., tax, accounting, or regulatory requirements).

When personal data is no longer needed, we will securely delete or anonymize it.

Security

We seek to use reasonable organizational, technical, and administrative measures designed to protect personal data within our organization. These measures include secure hosting and data storage practices, access controls limiting who can access personal data, and regular monitoring and updates to our security practices.

However, no data transmission or storage system can be guaranteed to be 100% secure. If you have reason to believe that your interaction with us is no longer secure, please immediately notify us using the contact details below.
