Where personal information is transferred or made accessible outside Nigeria, we will take appropriate steps to ensure that the transfer and processing are conducted in accordance with applicable data-protection requirements.

Security measures may include access controls, authentication procedures, confidentiality obligations, system safeguards, and appropriate operational controls.

However, no website, electronic transmission, database, or storage system can be guaranteed to be completely secure. You should therefore exercise appropriate caution when transmitting information online.

We encourage you to review the privacy policies of any third-party websites you visit.

14. Children's Privacy

The nature and extent of such processing will depend on the specific service agreement, location, operational requirements, and applicable laws.

Where Overdrive Security processes personal information on behalf of a client as part of a security service, the relevant client may determine the purpose and means of certain processing activities. Additional contractual or privacy arrangements may therefore apply.

We take reasonable steps to protect such information against unauthorised access or disclosure.

We may disclose information where required or authorised by law, necessary to protect persons or property, necessary to provide contracted services, or otherwise permitted under an applicable agreement.

18. Data Breaches and Security Incidents

Where a personal-data breach occurs, we will assess and respond to the incident in accordance with applicable legal and regulatory requirements.

Where notification to affected individuals, regulators, clients, or other parties is required, we will take reasonable steps to make such notifications within the applicable timeframe.
