Privacy Policy

1. Who we are

7Fleet Properties is a luxury residential estate agency based in Abuja, Nigeria, and is the data controller responsible for the personal information processed through this website and in the course of our advisory services. You can reach us at 4 Gana Street, Maitama, Abuja, FCT, Nigeria, by telephone on +234 803 255 7847, or by email at [email protected].

This policy explains what information we collect, why we collect it, who we share it with, and the rights you have under the Nigeria Data Protection Act 2023 (NDPA) and other applicable data-protection laws.

2. Information we collect

We collect personal information in the following ways:

• Information you give us — when you complete our enquiry or contact form, request a viewing or a confidential valuation, or otherwise correspond with us. This typically includes your name, email address, telephone number, the nature of your interest (for example buying, renting, selling or letting), and any details you choose to include in your message.
• Property preferences — homes you save or shortlist using the “saved residences” feature. These are stored locally in your browser on your own device and are not transmitted to our servers unless you contact us about them.
• Information collected automatically — basic technical and usage data such as your device type, browser, approximate location and the pages you view. Some of this is collected through cookies and similar technologies (see our Cookie Policy).

3. How we use your information

• To respond to your enquiries and arrange property viewings, valuations and meetings with our advisors.
• To provide our estate-agency and advisory services to you.
• To send you property updates, market insights or invitations where you have asked us to or otherwise consented.
• To operate, maintain, secure and improve our website.
• To meet our legal, regulatory and professional obligations, including anti-money-laundering (AML) and identity-verification checks where a transaction proceeds.

4. Our legal bases for processing

Under the NDPA, we rely on one or more of the following lawful bases:

• Your consent — for example, when you opt in to receive marketing updates.
• Performance of a contract — or steps taken at your request before entering into one.
• Our legitimate interests — in operating and promoting our business, provided these do not override your rights.
• Compliance with a legal obligation — such as record-keeping and AML requirements.

5. Sharing your information

We do not sell your personal information. We may share it with:

• Our advisors and staff who need it to handle your enquiry.
• Professional partners involved in a transaction at your request — for example solicitors, surveyors, valuers or mortgage advisers.
• Trusted service providers who help us run the website and our business, such as our hosting provider (Vercel) and font and infrastructure providers (including Google Fonts).
• Courts, regulators or law-enforcement authorities where we are required to do so by law.

6. International transfers

Some of our service providers process data on servers located outside Nigeria. Where personal information is transferred internationally, we take reasonable steps to ensure it remains protected to a standard consistent with the NDPA, including through appropriate contractual safeguards.

7. How long we keep your information

We keep personal information only for as long as is necessary for the purposes set out above, including to meet legal, accounting or reporting requirements. Enquiry records are generally retained for the duration of our discussions and for a reasonable period afterwards; transaction and compliance records are kept for the periods required by law.

8. How we protect your information

We apply appropriate technical and organisational measures to guard against unauthorised access, alteration, disclosure or loss of personal information. No method of transmission over the internet is completely secure, but we work to protect your data and to maintain the security of our systems.

9. Your rights

Subject to applicable law, you have the right to:

• Access the personal information we hold about you.
• Ask us to correct information that is inaccurate or incomplete.
• Ask us to delete your information in certain circumstances.
• Object to, or ask us to restrict, certain processing.
• Request the portability of information you have provided to us.
• Withdraw any consent you have given, at any time.
• Lodge a complaint with the Nigeria Data Protection Commission (NDPC).

To exercise any of these rights, contact us at [email protected].

10. Children

Our website and services are intended for adults and are not directed at children under 18. We do not knowingly collect personal information from minors.

11. Third-party links

Our website may contain links to third-party sites or services. This policy does not apply to those sites, and we are not responsible for their content or privacy practices. We encourage you to review their policies.

12. Changes to this policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will revise the “last updated” date above. Significant changes will be brought to your attention where appropriate.
