  2. Cookies are small text files. They are commonly downloaded to your computer or mobile device by websites that you visit.

  1. How We Secure Your Information
  1. We store and process your personal information on our computers in Nigeria. Where we need to transfer your data to another country, such a country must have an adequate data protection law. We will seek your consent when we need to send your data to a country without an adequate data protection law.
  2. We protect your information using physical, technical, and administrative security measures to reduce the risks of loss, misuse, unauthorised access, disclosure and alteration. Some of the safeguards we use are firewalls and data encryption, physical access controls to our data centres, and information access authorisation controls.
  3. We will always hold your information securely. To prevent unauthorised access to your information, we have implemented strong controls and security safeguards at the technical and operational levels. Our website uses Secure Sockets Layer/Transport Layer Security (SSL/TLS) to ensure secure transmission of your Personal Data. You should see the padlock symbol in your URL address bar once you are successfully logged into the platform. The URL address will also start with https:// depicting a secure webpage. SSL applies encryption between two points such as your PC and the connecting server. Any data transmitted during the session will be encrypted before transmission and decrypted at the receiving end. This is to ensure that data cannot be read during transmission.
  4. STC has also taken measures to comply with global Information Security Management Systems. We, have, therefore, put in place digital and physical security measures to limit or eliminate possibilities of data privacy breach incidents.
  5. All data breaches will be dealt with in line with STC’s Breach Policy and reported to the relevant regulators and government authorities within 72 hours of the occurrence of such breaches.
