Some providers may act as independent data controllers for particular activities, while others process information on our behalf.
Their handling of personal information may also be governed by their own privacy policies.
​
9. International Data Transfers
​
Because Henriz serves international customers and uses international technology, production and delivery partners, personal information may be transferred to or processed in countries outside Nigeria or your country of residence.
Where required by applicable law, we will use appropriate legal mechanisms and safeguards for international transfers, taking into account the destination, purpose of processing and protections available.

We do not sell customer contact lists to third parties for their independent marketing purposes.
​
12. Data Security
​
We take reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect personal information against unauthorised access, disclosure, alteration, loss or misuse.
These measures may include appropriate access controls, secure website connections, service-provider safeguards and restrictions on access to customer information.
Although we take data protection seriously, no internet-based system can be guaranteed to be completely secure.
Where a personal data breach occurs, we will investigate and make any notifications required by applicable law.
