Privacy & Data Policy
How Kawai handles personal data.
This Privacy & Data Policy explains how Kawai Technologies Limited collects, uses, stores,
shares, and protects personal data through its website, communications, and business operations.
It is designed to reflect the principles of the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR),
Nigeria's Data Protection Act 2023, and the Nigeria Data Protection Regulation (NDPR).
1. Scope
This policy applies to personal data collected through this website, enquiries, project
discussions, procurement interactions, supplier engagement, client onboarding, recruitment
processes, and other business communications handled by Kawai Technologies Limited.
2. Personal Data We May Collect
- Identity data such as your name, company name, and job title.
- Contact data such as email address, telephone number, and physical address.
- Project and commercial data you submit through forms, email, WhatsApp, or meetings.
- Technical data such as browser type, device information, IP address, and usage data.
- Supplier, contractor, or partner data needed to assess and manage commercial relationships.
3. How We Use Personal Data
- To respond to enquiries and project briefs.
- To evaluate supplier, procurement, logistics, and service-delivery requirements.
- To manage contracts, quotations, invoicing, and client or vendor relationships.
- To operate, secure, and improve this website and related communications.
- To comply with legal, regulatory, audit, and record-keeping obligations.
4. Legal Bases for Processing
Where GDPR applies, Kawai relies on one or more of the following legal bases:
- Consent, where you choose to submit information or opt into communications.
- Performance of a contract or steps taken at your request before entering a contract.
- Legitimate interests, including business development, service delivery, and website security.
- Compliance with legal or regulatory obligations.
Under Nigerian data protection requirements, Kawai processes personal data lawfully, fairly,
transparently, for specific and legitimate purposes, and only to the extent reasonably necessary.
5. Data Sharing
Kawai may share personal data only where reasonably necessary with service providers, logistics
partners, professional advisers, technology vendors, regulators, or other parties involved in
delivering a project or complying with legal obligations. We do not sell personal data.
6. International Transfers
Because Kawai works with international suppliers, manufacturers, and logistics routes, personal
data may be accessed or processed outside Nigeria or outside the country in which you are based.
Where that happens, Kawai will take reasonable steps to ensure an adequate level of protection,
including contractual controls and vendor due diligence where appropriate.
7. Data Retention
Kawai retains personal data only for as long as necessary to fulfil the purpose for which it
was collected, manage commercial relationships, meet legal and accounting obligations, resolve
disputes, and enforce agreements. Retention periods may vary depending on the nature of the data
and the project or regulatory context.
8. Security
Kawai uses reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect personal data against
accidental loss, unauthorised access, misuse, alteration, or disclosure. No online system can
guarantee absolute security, but we take data protection seriously and review our controls
regularly.
9. Cookies and Analytics
This website may use essential hosting, performance, and analytics tools to understand traffic,
maintain security, and improve user experience. If additional non-essential cookies or tracking
tools are introduced later, Kawai should implement an appropriate consent mechanism before they
are activated where required by law.
10. Your Rights
Depending on the law that applies to your data, you may have the right to:
- Request access to your personal data.
- Request correction of inaccurate or incomplete data.
- Request deletion where retention is no longer necessary or lawful.
- Object to or restrict certain processing.
- Request data portability where applicable.
- Withdraw consent where processing is based on consent.
- Lodge a complaint with a competent supervisory authority.
11. Contact and Complaints
To exercise a privacy right or raise a concern, contact Kawai Technologies Limited at

the right to complain to the Nigeria Data Protection Commission or, where relevant, an EU data
protection supervisory authority in your jurisdiction.
12. Policy Updates
Kawai may update this policy from time to time to reflect operational, legal, or regulatory
changes. The latest version published on this website will apply from its stated effective date.
