Data Collection Practices for Nigerian Traders

We gather essential data when Nigerian users register and trade on Lirunex. Personal details include full name, email, phone, address, and birthdate. Verification requires passports, national ID cards, or driver’s licenses plus recent utility bills for residence proof. Trading data covers account balances, transaction logs, open positions, and platform usage. We also collect login metadata like IP addresses, device IDs, and browser types to secure accounts.

  • Account registration details (name, email, phone, address)
  • Identity documents (passport, national ID, utility bills)
  • Financial info (bank details, deposits, withdrawals)
  • Technical data (IP, device, browser specifics)
  • Customer support communications (tickets, chats, emails)

All data is collected via encrypted channels during registration, trading, and support. Automated validation tools ensure data accuracy and completeness.

Data Processing and Usage Guidelines

Lirunex processes Nigerian user data for specific purposes defined in our privacy policy. Processing includes account verification, trade execution, regulatory compliance, and fraud detection. We use automated analysis to monitor trading behavior and identify anomalies.

Account Management Processing

We verify identities and addresses via Nigerian databases and global services. Suspicious or incomplete documentation triggers manual review. Trading accounts are managed with real-time balance updates, position tracking, and risk assessments. Usage analytics help enhance platform performance.

Regulatory Compliance Processing

We fulfill Nigerian CBN and SEC regulations by generating compliance reports and audit trails. Data supports tax reporting, suspicious activity monitoring, and customer due diligence. Automated alerts flag transactions exceeding regulatory limits.

Marketing and Communication Processing

Marketing data is processed only with explicit consent. We tailor educational content and trading offers based on account activity and preferences. Communication processing includes handling support requests and sending platform updates.

Processing Activity Legal Basis Data Types Retention Period
Account Verification Regulatory Compliance Identity, Address 7 years
Trading Services Contract Performance Financial, Trading 5 years
Customer Support Legitimate Interest Communication 2 years
Marketing User Consent Preferences, Activity Until withdrawal

Data Storage and Security Measures

We safeguard Nigerian users’ data with AES-256 encryption for storage and TLS 1.3 for transmission. Our servers comply with international standards and optimize access speed for Nigeria. Access controls include multi-factor authentication and role-based permissions. Continuous monitoring detects unauthorized attempts or vulnerabilities.

  • AES-256 encryption for data at rest
  • TLS 1.3 for secure data transfer
  • Multi-factor authentication for access
  • Regular penetration testing and audits
  • Geographically distributed backups

Data retention aligns with Nigerian law, automatically deleting expired records except those required for compliance.

User Rights and Data Control Options

Nigerian clients hold rights to access, correct, delete, or restrict their personal data. Our client portal offers tools to exercise these rights efficiently. We provide data copies in machine-readable formats within 30 days of verified requests. Users may also transfer data securely to other platforms.

Data Access and Portability Rights

Users request complete personal data through their dashboards. We comply by delivering data in standardized formats compatible with other trading services. Portability excludes proprietary platform data like custom algorithms.

Correction and Deletion Rights

Users update information via account settings or support contact. Verification ensures accuracy and prevents unauthorized changes. Deletion requests respect legal retention obligations; essential compliance data remains untouched.

Processing Restriction and Objection Rights

Users may limit data processing for marketing or analytics while maintaining active accounts. Objections to certain processing are evaluated against legal and service requirements. We respond to restriction requests promptly within five business days.

User Right Response Time Available Methods Documentation Required

  • Payment processors for transaction facilitation
  • Verification services for document authentication
  • Regulatory bodies for compliance reporting
  • Legal counsel for dispute resolution
  • Technical partners for platform maintenance

All third parties adhere to data protection clauses, purpose limitations, and deletion mandates. We regularly audit partners for compliance with Nigerian privacy standards.
