It is Strategic Outsourcing Limited's policy to respect your privacy regarding any information we may collect while you use our website and digital platforms. This Privacy Policy applies to www.solnigeria.com and all associated platforms operated by Strategic Outsourcing Limited (hereinafter "us", "we", or "SOL"). We are committed to protecting personally identifiable information you may provide us through our website and are fully compliant with the Nigeria Data Protection Act 2023 (NDPA 2023).

We have adopted this Privacy Policy to explain what information may be collected when you use our website, how we use that information, and under what circumstances we may disclose it to third parties. This Privacy Policy applies only to information we collect through our website and platforms and does not apply to information collected through other means. Depending on your activities when visiting our website, you may be required to agree to additional terms.

Certain visitors to SOL's website choose to interact with us in ways that require us to gather personally identifying information. The amount and type of information we gather depends on the nature of the interaction. For example, when you submit a job application through our careers portal, we collect information such as your name, contact details, CV, qualifications, and work history. When you use our contact form, we collect your name, email address, and phone number in order to respond to your enquiry.

We collect and process this information only for the specific, legitimate purpose for which it was provided and will not use it in a manner incompatible with that purpose. You have the right to refuse to supply personally identifying information, with the understanding that this may prevent you from accessing certain features of our website or services.

SOL processes your personal data only where a valid lawful basis exists under Section 25 of the NDPA 2023. Depending on the nature of your interaction with our website, we may rely on one or more of the following bases: your consent (for example, when you opt in to receive communications from us); the performance of a contract or pre-contractual steps (for example, when you submit a job application); a legal obligation to which SOL is subject; or our legitimate business interests, where these do not override your fundamental rights and freedoms.

The security of your personal information is important to us. SOL implements appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect your personal data from unauthorised access, loss, alteration, or disclosure, in compliance with Section 39 of the NDPA 2023. These measures include encryption of data in transit and at rest, access controls, and regular security assessments.

However, no method of transmission over the internet or method of electronic storage is 100% secure. While we strive to use commercially acceptable means to protect your personal information, we cannot guarantee its absolute security. In the event of a personal data breach that poses a risk to your rights, we will notify the Nigeria Data Protection Commission (NDPC) within 72 hours and communicate with you as required under the NDPA 2023.

Our website may contain links to external sites that are not operated by us, including our social media pages on LinkedIn, Twitter/X, Facebook, and Instagram, as well as third-party job portals and partner websites. If you click on a third-party link, you will be directed to that site. We strongly advise you to review the Privacy Policy and Terms of Service of every site you visit.

SOL has no control over, and assumes no responsibility for, the content, privacy policies, or practices of any third-party sites, products, or services.

SOL discloses personally identifying information only to those employees, contractors, and third-party service providers that need to know that information in order to process it on SOL's behalf or to provide services accessible through our website. All such parties are required to maintain the confidentiality of your information and are bound by appropriate data processing agreements in line with Section 29 of the NDPA 2023. SOL will not rent or sell your personal identity information to any third party.

Where your information is processed by a third-party service provider outside Nigeria, SOL ensures that appropriate safeguards are in place for such cross-border transfers in accordance with Part VIII of the NDPA 2023. Beyond the above, SOL may disclose personally identifying information only in response to a valid court order, subpoena, or other legal requirement, or where disclosure is reasonably necessary to protect the rights, property, or safety of SOL, its clients, or the public.

If you have supplied your email address through our website or job application portal, SOL may occasionally contact you to share relevant information such as job opportunities, company updates, or service announcements. You may opt out of such communications at any time by contacting us at ict@solnigeria.com.

SOL may collect and analyse statistical information about the behaviour of visitors to our website — such as pages visited, time spent on the site, and traffic sources — for the purpose of improving user experience and the quality of our services. Such statistics are aggregated and do not identify individual users. SOL does not disclose your personally identifying information as part of any statistical reporting.

Personal data submitted through our job application portal (www.solnigeria.com, mysol360.com/careers, or www.soleioms.com) is processed for the purpose of evaluating your suitability for employment or deployment opportunities at SOL or its client organisations. By applying, you consent to SOL collecting and using your personal data for recruitment and talent management purposes.

Unsuccessful applicant records are retained for 12 months from the date of the application decision and are thereafter securely deleted, unless you provide consent for longer retention to be considered for future opportunities. SOL is an equal opportunity employer and treats all applications fairly and in confidence.

In accordance with Part VI of the Nigeria Data Protection Act 2023, you have the following rights in relation to personal data we hold about you:

To exercise any of these rights, please contact us at ict@solnigeria.com. We will respond to your request without undue delay and in any event within 30 days.

If Strategic Outsourcing Limited, or substantially all of its assets, were acquired, or in the unlikely event that SOL goes out of business or enters insolvency proceedings, user information would be one of the assets transferred to or acquired by a successor entity. You acknowledge that such transfers may occur and that any acquirer of SOL may continue to use your personal information as set forth in this Privacy Policy, subject to applicable data protection law.
