Changes to the Privacy Notice and your duty to inform us of changes
We will continually assess our privacy and data protection practices to ensure that your privacy is guaranteed. To this end, we keep our Privacy Notice under regular review. In the event that changes are made, we will indicate at the top of this Privacy Notice when it was most recently updated or send you a notification that the Privacy Notice has been updated. Either way, your continued use of the website will signify that you agree to any such changes. Please be assured that we will not use any previously collected Personal Information, to the extent that it is not collected under the new Privacy Notice, in a manner materially different than represented at the time it was collected.
It is important that the Personal Information we hold about you is accurate and current. Please keep us informed if your Personal Information changes during your relationship with us.
Third-party links
The website may include links to third-party platforms, plug-ins, portals or applications. Clicking on those links or enabling those connections may allow third parties to collect or share data about you. We do not control these third-party websites and are not responsible for their privacy statements. When you leave any of the Sites, we encourage you to read the Privacy Notice of every platform you visit.
2. The data we collect about you
Personal Information means any information about an individual from which that person can be identified. It does not include data where the identity has been removed (anonymous data).
We may collect, use, store and transfer different kinds of Personal Information about you which we have grouped as follows:
We also collect, use and share Aggregated Data such as statistical or demographic data for any purpose. Aggregated Data could be derived from your Personal Information but is not considered Personal Information in law as this data will not directly or indirectly reveal your identity. For example, we may aggregate your Usage Data to calculate the percentage of users accessing a specific website feature. However, if we combine or connect Aggregated Data with your Personal Information so that it can directly or indirectly identify you, we treat the combined data as Personal Information which will be used in accordance with this Privacy Notice.
We do not collect any Special Categories of Personal Information about you—this includes details about your race or ethnicity, religious or philosophical beliefs, political opinions, trade union membership, information about your health, and genetic and biometric data. Nor do we collect any information about criminal convictions and offences.
If you fail to provide Personal Information
Where we need to collect Personal Information by law, or under the terms to provide a service or product to you, and you fail to provide that data when requested, we may not be able to provide the service or product we have or are trying to provide to you. In this case, we may have to cancel a service we are otherwise obliged to provide to you but may still notify you if this is the case at the time.
3. How is your Personal Information collected?
We use different methods to collect data from and about you including through:
4. How we use your Personal Information

5. Cookie and Other Tracking Technologies
A cookie is a small text file that includes a unique identifier that is sent by a web server to the browser on your computer, mobile phone or any other internet-enabled device when you visit an on-line site. Cookies and other tracking technologies are widely used to make websites work efficiently and to collect information about your online preferences. For simplicity, we refer to all these technologies as “cookies”.
We also use web beacons—electronic images (or single-pixel gifs) that we use to help deliver cookies on the website. We may also use web beacons in our emails. So when we send emails to you, we may track behaviour such as who opened the emails. This allows us to measure the performance of our emails.
i. Withdraw Your Cookies Consent at Any Time
By consenting to this Privacy Notice, you also consent to the use of cookies on your devices. If you do not wish to accept cookies in connection with your use of our website, you may delete and block or disable cookies via your browser settings; see below for more information on how to do this. Please note that disabling cookies—especially strictly necessary cookies—will likely affect the functionality of our website.
ii. How to Manage and Delete Your Cookies

Unless you have adjusted your browser settings to refuse cookies, our system will issue cookies when you direct your browser to our website. You can refuse to accept cookies by activating the appropriate setting on your browser. Depending on your browser, further information may be obtained via the following links:
The information provided throughout this Privacy Notice about cookies also applies to these other tracking technologies. Please refer to our Cookie Policy for more details regarding our use of Cookies and other tracking technologies.
Change of purpose
We will only use your Personal Information for the purposes for which we collected it, unless we reasonably consider that we need to use it for another reason and that reason is compatible with the original purpose. If you wish to get an explanation as to how the processing for the new purpose is compatible with the original purpose, please contact us.
If we need to use your Personal Information for an unrelated purpose, we will notify you and we will explain the legal basis which allows us to do so.
Please note that we may process your Personal Information without your knowledge or consent, in compliance with the above rules, where this is required or permitted by law.
6. Disclosures of your Personal Information
We may share your Personal Information with the parties set out below for the purposes set out in the table [Purposes for which we will use your Personal Information] above.
We require all third parties to respect the security of your Personal Information and to treat it in accordance with the law. We do not allow our third-party service providers to use your Personal Information for their own purposes and only permit them to process your Personal Information for specified purposes and in accordance with our instructions.
Bold Fusion is based in Nigeria and stores and processes your Personal Information on computers in Nigeria. However, please note that in order to provide a smooth and seamless digital service provision, we depend on hosting services and servers located outside Nigeria; thus, your interactions with our website may mean that your Personal Information will be stored, processed, and maintained in the ordinary course of business by our hosting providers. As a matter of course, we endeavour to ensure that foreign jurisdictions where your Personal Information is processed also have data protection legislation that is no less than the existing data protection regulations in force in Nigeria.
When you are accessing our website or services from outside Nigeria, please note that any information collected may be processed in accordance with Nigerian laws, which may be different from the laws applicable in your country of residence.
We are very particular about preserving your privacy and protecting your data at Bold Fusion. Therefore, to avoid the loss, theft, misuse and unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, and destruction of your information, we have put in place appropriate security measures to prevent your Personal Information from being accidentally lost, used or accessed in an unauthorised way, altered or disclosed. In addition, we limit access to your Personal Information to those employees, agents, contractors and other third parties who have a need to know. They will only process your Personal Information on our instructions and they are subject to a duty of confidentiality.
Despite this, we cannot completely guarantee the security of any information you transmit via the website, as the internet is not an entirely secure place. We have put in place procedures to deal with any suspected Personal Information breach and will notify you.
We will only retain your Personal Information for as long as reasonably necessary to fulfil the purposes we collected it for, including for the purposes of satisfying any legal or regulatory requirements. We may retain your Personal Information for a longer period in the event of a complaint or if we reasonably believe there is a prospect of litigation in respect to our relationship with you.
To determine the appropriate retention period for Personal Information, we consider the amount, nature and sensitivity of the Personal Information, the potential risk of harm from unauthorised use or disclosure of your Personal Information, the purposes for which we process your Personal Information and whether we can achieve those purposes through other means, and the applicable legal or regulatory.
10. Your legal right as a Data Subject
Because we determine the purposes for and the manner in which your Personal Information may be processed, we are regarded as a data controller. Likewise, because you can be identified directly or indirectly through certain categories of data that is specific to your identity, the law regards you as a data subject.
As a data subject, the law vests you with certain rights—they include the right to:
If you wish to exercise any of the rights set out above at any time, please send us an email at hello@boldfusion.space
No fee usually required
You will not have to pay a fee to access your Personal Information (or to exercise any of the other rights). However, we may charge a reasonable fee if your request is clearly unfounded, repetitive or excessive. Alternatively, we could refuse to comply with your request in these circumstances.
What we may need from you
We may need to request specific information from you to help us confirm your identity and ensure your right to access your Personal Information (or to exercise any of your other rights). This is a security measure to ensure that Personal Information is not disclosed to any person who has no right to receive it. We may also contact you to ask you for further information in relation to your request to speed up our response.
Time limit to respond
We try to respond to all legitimate requests within one month. Occasionally it could take us longer than a month if your request is particularly complex or you have made a number of requests. In this case, we may notify you and keep you updated.
11. Contact us
