Privacy Policy

How we handle your information.

We are bookkeepers. Handling other people's confidential financial information carefully is the job — this page sets out exactly what we do with yours, in plain language.

Last updated: 2 August 2026 · Peacebrooks Integrated Solutions LTD

Who we are

Peacebrooks Integrated Solutions LTD provides bookkeeping, accounting, tax compliance and business registration services to businesses in Nigeria. Our registered address is 16 Iletura, Ilorin, Kwara State.

This policy is written under the Nigeria Data Protection Act 2023 (NDPA) and the NDPC's General Application and Implementation Directive (GAID) 2025, which took effect on 19 September 2025.

The short version. We collect only what we need to reply to you and do your books. We never sell your information. Client records are kept for six years because Nigerian tax and company law require it. You can ask at any time what we hold, and ask us to correct or delete it.

Our two roles

This distinction matters, because it determines who decides what happens to your data.

Whose dataOur roleWhat it means
Yours, as an enquirer or client — your name, contact details, and our correspondence with you Data controller We decide what is collected and why, and we are accountable for it
Your business's records, and your employees' payroll data Data processor We handle it on your instructions. You remain the controller of your own staff's data — we act on your behalf

Where we act as your processor, our engagement letter sets out what we may do with the data. We will not use your employees' information for anything beyond the work you have asked us to do.

What we collect

When you fill in our enquiry form

When you become a client

To do the work we handle your financial records — bank statements, invoices, receipts, payroll schedules, Tax Identification Numbers and similar. Where you employ staff, this includes their names, salaries, pension details and tax records.

All of it is confidential. As an ICAN member, our Managing Director is bound by a professional code of ethics on confidentiality that sits on top of everything in this policy.

Automatically, when you visit this page

We do not collect sensitive personal data — such as health, biometric, religious or political information — and you should not send it to us.

Why we use it, and our lawful basis

Section 25 of the NDPA requires a specific lawful basis for each use. Ours are:

What we doWhyLawful basis
Reply to your enquiryYou asked us toSteps before a contract
Provide bookkeeping and tax servicesTo do the work you engaged us forPerformance of a contract
File returns with the NRS, State IRS and pension bodiesRequired by law on your behalfLegal obligation
Keep records for six yearsCITA s.63 and CAMA s.864 require itLegal obligation
Measure which adverts bring enquiriesTo spend our marketing budget sensiblyLegitimate interest

Who else sees it

We do not sell your information, and we do not share it for anyone else's marketing. We share it only where we must:

Transfers outside Nigeria

Some of these providers store data on servers outside Nigeria. Under section 41 of the NDPA we may only do this where the destination offers adequate protection. We rely on providers whose contractual terms commit them to data protection standards equivalent to those required in Nigeria, and we keep a record of that basis.

Analytics and advertising

This page may use Google Analytics and the Meta (Facebook) advertising pixel. They tell us how many people visited, which sections they read, and whether an advert led to an enquiry. They do not tell us who you are by name.

You can opt out of Google Analytics with Google's browser add-on, and adjust Meta's ad settings inside your Facebook account. Most browsers can block these outright through their privacy settings.

How long we keep things

RecordKept forWhy
Enquiries that do not become clients24 monthsOur own follow-up, then deleted
Client accounting and tax records6 years after the relevant year of assessmentCITA s.63
Company records and financial statements6 yearsCAMA s.864
Employee and payroll records3 years after the period they relate to, or 6 years where they support a tax filingLabour Act s.75; CITA s.63

These periods are legal requirements, not preferences. They apply even if you ask us to delete your records sooner. Note also that where fraud, wilful default or negligence is alleged, the six-year limit does not apply and records may be requested at any time.

How we protect it

If something goes wrong

No system is perfect and we will not pretend otherwise. If a breach occurs that is likely to risk your rights, section 40 of the NDPA requires us to notify the Nigeria Data Protection Commission within 72 hours of becoming aware of it, and to tell you directly without undue delay where the risk to you is high. We will do both.

Your rights under the NDPA

Sections 34 to 37 of the NDPA give you the right to ask us to:

Email support@peacebrooks.com. We respond within 30 days, at no charge. If we need longer for a complex request we will tell you why.

Complaints

If you are unhappy with how we have handled a request, please tell us first — most things are quickest to fix directly. You also have the right to complain to the Nigeria Data Protection Commission at any time, through ndpc.gov.ng.

Cookies

This page sets no cookies of its own. Where analytics or advertising tools are active, they may set their own. You can block or delete cookies in your browser settings, and nothing on this page will stop working if you do.

Children

Our services are for businesses. We do not knowingly collect information from anyone under 18. If you believe a child has sent us information, contact us and we will delete it.

Changes to this policy

If we change how we handle your information we will update this page and the date at the top. Where a change materially affects existing clients we will tell you directly rather than expect you to notice.
