Privacy Policy & Data Protection

1. Introduction & Data Controller

inCrease Energy & Mining Company (“inCrease”, “we”, “us”, or “our”) respects the privacy of institutional partners, prospective off-takers, regulators, and website visitors. This policy sets out how we collect, use, and protect personal information across increaseenergyandmining.com and our Abuja corporate correspondence channels.

2. Information We Collect

We collect only information you voluntarily provide or standard technical telemetry generated during normal web delivery:

• Corporate Inquiry Details: Full name, organization or institution name, business email address, optional telephone number, selected inquiry focus, and message content prepared through our contact desk form.
• Technical & Server Logs: Transient connection metadata such as IP address, browser user agent, referrer path, and security headers processed by our hosting infrastructure to safeguard platform availability.
• Preference Storage: Essential browser storage used only if you accept storage preferences so the consent notice stays dismissed across visits; declining stores nothing in browser storage and keeps the dismissal in page memory only.

3. Purpose & Lawful Basis for Processing

We process corporate contact records strictly for legitimate business and statutory purposes, including:

• Reviewing and responding to strategic partnership, project development, engineering, or joint-venture inquiries.
• Conducting Know-Your-Counterparty (KYC), chain-of-custody due diligence, and regulatory reporting where required under Nigerian law.
• Protecting the integrity, security, and availability of our digital infrastructure.

4. Sharing & International Transfers

inCrease does not sell, rent, or trade stakeholder contact information to third parties. Submitted inquiry records may be routed internally to authorized directors, project advisors, and legal counsel, or disclosed to competent regulatory authorities when mandated by law.

5. Data Security & Retention

We maintain technical and organizational safeguards proportionate to institutional energy and mining governance, including encrypted HTTPS transport, strict content-framing headers, and access-controlled executive correspondence channels. Inquiry records are retained only as long as reasonably required to address correspondence or satisfy statutory retention rules.

6. Your Rights Under the Nigeria Data Protection Act (NDPA)

Under Part VI of the Nigeria Data Protection Act 2023, regulated by the Nigeria Data Protection Commission (NDPC), data subjects hold enforceable statutory rights regarding their personal information:

• Right of Access: Request confirmation of whether we process your personal data and obtain a copy of that record.
• Right to Rectification: Request prompt correction of inaccurate, incomplete, or outdated corporate contact details.
• Right to Erasure: Request deletion of personal data where it is no longer necessary for its collected purpose or where consent is withdrawn, subject to legal retention duties.
• Right to Restrict or Object: Request limits on processing or object where processing relies on legitimate corporate interests.
• Right to Portability & Withdraw Consent: Request a structured copy of data you supplied and withdraw previously granted consent at any time with equal ease.

To exercise any NDPA right, please contact our Corporate Governance & Privacy Desk at contact@increaseenergyandmining.com.

7. Cookies & Browser Preferences

This static corporate portal does not deploy intrusive advertising trackers. Essential browser storage is written only if you choose to accept so the consent notice does not reappear unnecessarily across visits; declining clears any stored consent key and keeps the dismissal in memory for the current view only. You can clear site storage or disable cookies at any time through your browser settings.
