further information please read our
Privacy Policy

1. Introduction

As part of our operations, Airtel Networks Limited (“Airtel”) collects and
processes certain types of information (including but not limited to NIN, name,
telephone numbers, address phone number, sex, photograph, ID card, fingerprint,
and signature etc. of individuals that makes them easily identifiable. These
individuals include current, past and prospective employees, merchants,
suppliers/vendors, customers or merchants and other individuals whom Airtel
communicates or deals with, jointly and/or severally (“Data Subjects”).

Maintaining the Data Subject’s trust and confidence requires that Data Subjects
do not suffer negative consequences/effects as a result of providing Airtel with
their Personal Data. To this end, Airtel is firmly committed to complying with
applicable data protection laws, regulations, rules and principles to ensure
security of Personal Data handled by the Company. This Data Privacy & Protection
Policy (“Policy”) describes the minimum standards that must be strictly adhered
to regarding the collection, use and disclosure of Personal Data and indicates
that Airtel is dedicated to processing the Personal Data it receives or
processes with absolute confidentiality and security. This Policy applies to all
forms of systems, operations and processes within the Airtel environment that
involve the collection, storage, use, transmission, and disposal of Personal
Data. Failure to comply with the data protection rules and guiding principles
set out in the Nigeria Data Protection Act, (NDPA) and the Nigerian Data
Protection Regulations 2019 (NDPR) as well as those set out in this Policy is a
material violation of Airtel’s policies and may result in disciplinary action as
required, including suspension or termination of employment or business
relationship. 2.0 SCOPE This Policy applies to all employees of Airtel, as well
as to any external business partners (such as merchants, suppliers, contractors,
vendors and other service providers) who receive, send, collect, access, or
process Personal Data in any way on behalf of Airtel, including processing
wholly or partly by automated means. This Policy also applies to third party
Data Processors who process Personal Data received from Airtel. 3.0 GENERAL
PRINCIPLES FOR PROCESSING OF PERSONAL DATA Airtel is committed to maintaining
the principles in the NDPA and NDPR regarding the processing of Personal Data.
To demonstrate this commitment as well as our aim of creating a positive privacy
culture within Airtel, we adhere to the following basic principles relating to
the processing of Personal Data: Lawfulness, Fairness and Transparency Personal
Data must be processed lawfully, fairly and in a transparent manner at all
times. This implies that Personal Data collected and processed by or on behalf
of Airtel must be in accordance with the specific, legitimate, and lawful
purpose consented to by the Data Subject, save where the processing is otherwise
allowed by law or within other legal grounds recognized in the NDPA and NDPR.
Data Accuracy Personal Data must be accurate and kept up-to-date. In this
regard, Airtel : a) shall ensure that any data it collects and/or processes is
accurate and not misleading in a way that could be harmful to the Data Subject;
b) make efforts to keep Personal Data updated where reasonable and applicable;
and c) make timely efforts to correct or erase Personal Data when inaccuracies
are discovered. Purpose Limitation Airtel collects Personal Data only for the
purposes identified in the Airtel Privacy Notice provided to the Data Subject
and for which consent has been obtained. Such Personal Data cannot be reused for
another purpose that is incompatible with the original purpose, except a new
Consent is obtained. The purposes for which Airtel will use your personal data
includes but not limited to the following: a) For the provision of services to
you. For example, when you purchase any of our products or services, we will use
your personal data to process your order. b) For customer care and billing. When
you use our products or services, we will use your personal information to bill
you and to respond to enquiries and concerns that you may have about our
products and services. c) Customer service messages. We will use your personal
data to keep you updated with the latest information or changes about our
products and services. d) For marketing purposes. To serve you better, will use
your personal data to market our products and services to you. e) Fraud
prevention and security. We will process your personal and traffic data to
protect you against and detect fraud, to protect and detect misuse or damage to
our networks. f) Managing our networks and understanding network usage. We do
this to manage the volume and quality of calls and to understand how you use our
networks, products, and services Data Minimization Airtel limits Personal Data
collection and usage to data that is relevant, adequate, and necessary for
carrying out the purpose for which the data is processed. Airtel will evaluate
whether and to what extent the processing of personal data is necessary and
where the purpose allows, anonymized data must be used. Integrity and
Confidentiality Airtel shall establish adequate controls in order to protect the
integrity and confidentiality of Personal Data, both in digital and physical
format and to prevent personal data from being accidentally or deliberately
compromised. Personal data of Data Subjects must be protected from unauthorized
viewing or access and from unauthorized changes to ensure that it is reliable
and correct. Any personal data processing undertaken by an employee who has not
been authorized to carry such out as part of their legitimate duties is
un-authorized. Employees may have access to Personal Data only as is appropriate
for the type and scope of the task in question and are forbidden to use Personal
Data for their own private or commercial purposes or to disclose them to
unauthorized persons, or to make them available in any other way. Human
Resources Department must inform employees at the start of the employment
relationship about the obligation to maintain personal data privacy. This
obligation shall remain in force even after employment has ended. Personal Data
Retention All personal information shall be retained, stored and destroyed by
Airtel in line with legislative and regulatory guidelines. For all Personal Data
and records obtained, used and stored within the Company, Airtel shall perform
periodical reviews of the data retained to confirm the accuracy, purpose,
validity and requirement to retain. To the extent permitted by applicable laws
and without prejudice to Airtel Document Retention Policy, the length of storage
of Personal Data shall, amongst other things, be determined by: (a) the contract
terms agreed between Airtel and the Data Subject or as long as it is needed for
the purpose for which it was obtained; or (b) whether the transaction or
relationship has statutory implication or a required retention period; or (c)
whether there is an express request for deletion of Personal Data by the Data
Subject, provided that such request will only be treated where the Data Subject
is not under any investigation which may require Airtel to retain such Personal
Data or there is no subsisting contractual arrangement with the Data Subject
that would require the processing of the Personal Data; or (d) whether Airtel
has another lawful basis for retaining that information beyond the period for
which it is necessary to serve the original purpose. Notwithstanding the
foregoing and pursuant to the NDPA and NDPR, Airtel shall be entitled to retain
and process Personal Data for archiving, scientific research, historical
research, or statistical purposes for public interest. Airtel would forthwith
delete Personal Data in Airtel’s possession where such Personal Data is no
longer required by Airtel. or in line with Airtel Retention Policy, provided no
law or regulation being in force requires Airtel to retain such Personal Data.
Accountability Airtel demonstrates accountability in line with the NDPA and NDPR
obligations by monitoring and continuously improving data privacy practices
within Airtel. Any individual or employee who breaches this Policy may be
subject to internal disciplinary action (up to and including termination of
their employment); and may also face civil or criminal liability if their action
violates the law. 4.0 DATA PRIVACY NOTICE Airtel considers Personal Data as
confidential and as such must be adequately protected from unauthorized use
and/or disclosure. Airtel will ensure that the Data Subjects are provided with
