Cybervol Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy explains how Cybervol by Rotvol Solutions collects, uses, stores, secures, and discloses personal data in connection with our services and website, in line with the Nigeria Data Protection Act (NDPA) 2023 and other applicable regulations.

01 — Introduction

We provide a range of services including offensive security, governance, risk and compliance (GRC), managed cybersecurity services, awareness and training programmes, and digital security solutions to organizations and individuals.

In the course of delivering our services, operating our website, and engaging with clients, partners, and employees, Cybervol collects and processes personal data. We are fully committed to handling that data in a lawful, fair, transparent, and secure manner in accordance with the Nigeria Data Protection Act (NDPA) 2023 and other applicable data protection regulations.

This Privacy Policy describes how we collect, use, store, secure, and disclose personal data — and explains the rights available to you.

03 — Sharing of Personal Data

Cybervol shares personal data with third parties strictly on a need-to-know basis, and only for legitimate business, operational, contractual, or legal purposes. We contractually restrict third parties from using personal data for any purpose other than what it was shared for. We do not sell personal data to third parties.

Legal & Regulatory Disclosures

We may disclose personal data to authorities, regulators, or law enforcement where required to comply with applicable laws, respond to lawful requests, or protect the rights and safety of Cybervol, its clients, or the public.

Service Providers & Technology Partners

We work with trusted third-party providers to support our operations — including cloud hosting, CRM, cybersecurity platforms, and IT support. These providers process data solely on our behalf and are bound by confidentiality and data protection obligations.

Client Service Delivery

In delivering our services, we may share personal data with authorised client representatives in accordance with contractual agreements. Where Cybervol acts as a Data Processor, data is handled solely on the documented instructions of the client (the Data Controller).

Internal Access

Personal data may be accessed internally by Cybervol employees or contractors who require it to perform their duties. Access is role-limited and subject to confidentiality obligations.

04 — Lawful Basis for Processing

We only process personal data where at least one of the following lawful conditions applies under the NDPA 2023:

  • Consent — where you have provided freely given, specific, and informed consent — for example, when submitting a website enquiry, registering for training, or subscribing to communications. You may withdraw consent at any time without affecting the lawfulness of prior processing.
  • Contractual Necessity — where processing is necessary to perform a contract with you, or to take pre-contractual steps — such as client onboarding, service delivery, and operational communication.
  • Legal Obligation — where processing is required to comply with Nigerian law — including employment, tax, labour, and regulatory obligations.
  • Vital Interests — in limited circumstances, where processing is necessary to protect the vital interests of an individual in situations involving health, safety, or security emergencies.
  • Public Interest — where processing is necessary for tasks in the public interest, such as cooperation with authorities on cybersecurity incidents or regulatory obligations.
  • Legitimate Interests — where processing is necessary for our legitimate business interests — such as securing our systems, preventing fraud, improving our services, or managing business relationships — provided those interests are not overridden by your rights and freedoms.

Use of Subcontractors: Cybervol may engage subcontractors to support technical and operational functions. All subcontractors with access to personal data are subject to contractual data protection obligations and are restricted from processing personal data for any unauthorised purpose. Cybervol remains responsible for overseeing their compliance.

05 — Data Retention

We retain personal data only for as long as necessary to fulfil the purpose for which it was collected, and in line with applicable legal and contractual obligations. When data is no longer needed, we securely delete or anonymize it.

Cybervol does not intentionally deploy cookies or tracking technologies on its website. We do not use cookies for advertising, behavioural tracking, or analytics purposes. Basic technical data (such as IP addresses or server logs) may be automatically processed by our website hosting infrastructure for security, performance, and operational purposes. This information is not used to identify individuals or track browsing behaviour.

07 — Data Security

We implement appropriate technical and organizational measures to safeguard personal data against destruction, loss, alteration, unauthorized disclosure, or access — in accordance with the NDPA and industry best practices.

Technical Measures

  • Industry-standard encryption for data in transit and at rest.
  • Strict, role-based access controls and strong authentication.
  • Firewalls, endpoint security, intrusion detection, and continuous monitoring.
  • Vulnerability management, timely patching, and system hardening.

Organisational Measures

  • Documented information security policies governing the data lifecycle.
  • Role-appropriate data protection training for all personnel.
  • Incident management procedures aligned with NDPA requirements.
  • Due diligence and contractual controls for third-party service providers.

While no system can be guaranteed completely secure, Cybervol continually assesses risks and improves its security posture to protect personal data.

08 — Personal Data Breach Management

In the event of a personal data breach that is likely to result in a high risk to individuals' rights and freedoms, Cybervol will notify the relevant regulatory authority — and where required, affected data subjects — within 72 hours of becoming aware of the breach, as prescribed under the NDPA.

Upon becoming aware of a breach, Cybervol will investigate the incident, contain and mitigate its impact, recover affected data where possible, and review security controls to prevent recurrence. A personal data breach refers to any breach of security leading to the accidental or unlawful destruction, loss, alteration, unauthorized disclosure of, or access to, personal data.

09 — Your Rights

Subject to applicable legal and contractual limitations, you have the following rights under the NDPA:

  • Right of Access — request confirmation that we process your data and obtain a copy of it.
  • Right to Rectification — request correction of inaccurate or incomplete personal data.
  • Right to Erasure — request deletion of your data where there is no lawful basis for continued processing.
  • Right to Restriction — request limits on how we process your data in certain circumstances.
