Privacy Policy

1. Who we are

Bel Holdings Limited is a Nigerian holding company. We coordinate group strategy, governance, and stakeholder communications for businesses across technology, education, energy, and strategic investments.

2. Data we collect

We collect information you provide and limited technical data needed to run a secure corporate website:

• Contact details from enquiry forms (name, email, phone, organisation, message).
• Investor, partnership, or media communications you send to our corporate addresses.
• Technical data: IP address, browser, device type, pages viewed, and referral source.
• Cookies or similar technologies for essential site operation and analytics where enabled.

• We do not sell personal data.
• We do not collect payment-card data on belholdings.org (payments happen on operating-company products).
• We do not buy mailing lists for unsolicited marketing.

3. Why we use it

We process personal data to respond to enquiries, manage group communications, improve belholdings.org, maintain security, and meet legal obligations. Lawful bases include legitimate interests (operating a corporate website), consent where you opt in, steps at your request before a contract, and legal obligation.

4. Sharing & processors

• Hosting, email, analytics, and form providers under confidentiality terms.
• Professional advisers where required (legal, audit, compliance).
• Authorities when required by law or to protect rights and safety.

We do not permit processors to use your data for their own marketing. International transfers, if any, use appropriate safeguards required under Nigerian law.

5. Retention & security

We keep personal data only as long as needed for the purposes above, including reasonable archive periods for correspondence and compliance. We apply administrative, technical, and organisational measures designed to protect data against unauthorised access, loss, or misuse.

6. Your rights (NDPA)

Subject to applicable law, you may request access, correction, deletion, restriction, or objection to processing, and withdraw consent where processing is consent-based. You may also lodge a complaint with the Nigeria Data Protection Commission.

7. Third-party sites

Our site links to operating companies and external platforms (LinkedIn, portfolio companies, etc.). Their privacy practices are governed by their own policies — review them before submitting data on those sites.

8. Changes

We may update this policy from time to time. The “Last updated” date shows the current version. Material changes may be highlighted on the website where appropriate.
