Your privacy matters.

1. Who We Are

Oluboba is a personal publication and digital platform operated by Oluboba Ayodeji (“Oluboba”, “we”, “us” or “our”).

This Privacy Policy applies to information collected through oluboba.com and other Oluboba services, features, pages, forms, accounts and digital experiences that link to this Policy.

For purposes of applicable data protection law, Oluboba may act as a data controller or otherwise determine the purposes and means of processing personal data in connection with the services we provide.

2. Information We Collect

The information we collect depends on how you interact with Oluboba. We aim to collect only information reasonably necessary for the relevant purpose.

Information you provide directly

• Name and contact information.
• Email address and telephone number.
• Account login and profile information.
• Information submitted through contact, registration, application or other forms.
• Information you provide when subscribing to the Letter from Oluboba.
• Information you voluntarily provide when participating in communities, discussions, comments, opportunities or other features.
• Any other information you choose to submit to us.

Information collected automatically

When you visit the website, certain technical information may be collected automatically, including information such as IP address, browser type, device type, operating system, pages visited, referring pages, approximate location derived from technical information, dates and times of visits, and information about how you interact with the website.

Some of this information may be collected through cookies, pixels, analytics tools, server logs or similar technologies.

3. Information Collected Through Accounts

If Oluboba offers user accounts, registration or member features, we may collect information necessary to create and maintain your account.

This may include your name, email address, username, profile information, authentication information, preferences, account activity and other information you voluntarily provide.

We may use this information to authenticate users, provide account functionality, maintain security, communicate with users, personalise relevant features and provide services requested by the user.

Passwords, where used, should be stored using appropriate security mechanisms. We do not intentionally collect or store passwords in plain text.

4. How We Use Personal Information

Depending on the nature of your interaction with Oluboba, personal information may be used to:

• Provide, operate and maintain the website and its features.
• Create and manage user accounts.
• Deliver newsletters, subscriptions and communications you request.
• Respond to enquiries and provide support.
• Process applications, submissions or participation in relevant programmes.
• Provide community or member services.
• Improve website performance, usability, content and services.
• Understand how visitors use the website.
• Detect, prevent and investigate fraud, abuse, security incidents and unauthorised activity.
• Comply with applicable laws, regulations, lawful requests and legal obligations.
• Establish, exercise or defend legal claims where necessary.

5. Lawful Basis for Processing

Where applicable, we process personal data on a lawful basis recognised under applicable data protection law.

Depending on the circumstances, this may include your consent, performance of a contract or steps taken at your request before entering into a contract, compliance with a legal obligation, protection of vital interests, performance of a task carried out in the public interest where applicable, or another lawful basis recognised by law.

Where processing is based on consent, you may withdraw that consent subject to applicable legal limitations. Withdrawal of consent does not affect the lawfulness of processing carried out before withdrawal.

6. Newsletter and Communications

If you subscribe to the Letter from Oluboba or another communication, we may process your email address and related subscription information in order to deliver the communication and manage your subscription.

Newsletter services may be provided through third-party platforms. Those providers may process information according to their own privacy policies and contractual arrangements.

You can unsubscribe from promotional or newsletter communications using the unsubscribe mechanism provided in the relevant communication or by contacting us.

7. Cookies and Similar Technologies

Oluboba may use cookies and similar technologies to operate essential website functions, remember preferences, understand website usage, maintain security and improve our services.

Some cookies may be placed by third-party services integrated into the website, such as analytics, embedded content, security, communications or other service providers.

Where required by applicable law, we will provide appropriate information and choices regarding non-essential cookies and similar technologies.

8. Analytics and Website Performance

We may use analytics and performance tools to understand website traffic, identify technical problems, measure engagement and improve the experience provided to visitors.

Analytics information may include technical identifiers, device information, pages visited, referral information and interaction data.

9. User Content and Public Information

Some Oluboba features may allow users to submit comments, profiles, applications, discussions, articles, images, listings or other content.

Information that you deliberately publish in a public area of the website may be visible to other users or members of the public. You should therefore avoid publishing personal information that you do not want to make public.

Where a feature allows you to control whether information is public or private, we will explain those choices as part of the relevant service.

10. Sharing Personal Information

We do not sell your personal information as a commercial product.

We may share personal information where reasonably necessary to operate Oluboba, provide requested services, comply with law or protect our users and the platform.

This may include sharing information with:

• Technology, hosting and infrastructure providers.
• Email and newsletter service providers.
• Analytics and performance providers.
• Security, fraud prevention and technical service providers.
• Professional advisers and service providers where reasonably necessary.
• Government authorities, regulators, courts or law enforcement where legally required or permitted.
• Other parties where you have requested or authorised the disclosure.

11. Third-Party Services and Links

Oluboba may use third-party services and may link to websites, platforms, applications or resources operated by other organisations.

Those third parties may collect and process information independently under their own privacy policies. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of third-party websites that we do not control.

We encourage you to review the privacy policies of third-party services before providing them with personal information.

12. International Data Transfers

Some service providers we use may process or store information outside Nigeria.

Where personal information is transferred across borders, we will take reasonable steps to ensure that the transfer and subsequent processing are carried out in accordance with applicable data protection requirements.

13. Data Security

We take reasonable technical and organisational measures designed to protect personal information against unauthorised access, alteration, disclosure, loss, destruction or other unlawful processing.

However, no internet transmission, website, server or electronic storage system can be guaranteed to be completely secure.

If we become aware of a personal data breach requiring notification under applicable law, we will take the steps required by law and applicable regulatory guidance.

14. Data Retention

We retain personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes for which it was collected, to provide requested services, maintain legitimate business records, resolve disputes, enforce agreements, maintain security or comply with legal and regulatory obligations.

Different categories of information may therefore be retained for different periods.

15. Your Privacy Rights

Subject to applicable law and relevant limitations, you may have rights in relation to your personal data, including:

These rights are not absolute and may be subject to lawful exceptions or limitations.

16. How to Make a Privacy Request

You may contact us if you want to exercise a privacy right, ask a question about how your information is processed, request correction or deletion, withdraw consent, or raise a privacy concern.

To protect your information, we may need to verify your identity before completing certain requests.

We will handle valid requests within the period required by applicable law and may contact you if additional information is reasonably required to process your request.

17. Children’s Privacy

Oluboba is not intended to knowingly collect personal information from children in circumstances where applicable law requires parental or guardian consent.

Where a service is directed at or made available to younger users, we will apply the additional safeguards required by applicable law.

18. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our services, technology, legal requirements or data processing practices.

When we make material changes, we may provide additional notice where appropriate.

The latest version of this Privacy Policy will always be published on this page with its effective date.
