Privacy Policy.

How DNIL collects and handles personal data submitted through this website.

This policy is not complete.

The numbered sections are DNIL’s policy as supplied on 22 September 2026, written to the Nigeria Data Protection Act 2023. The unnumbered sections between them are factual and derived from this website’s own code, and state the field names, limits and destinations the policy does not. Anything still marked Needs input has deliberately been left empty rather than filled with plausible wording.

1. Introduction

Data Network Infrastructures Limited (“DNIL,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) respects your privacy and is committed to protecting the personal data of everyone who visits dnilsolutions.com (the “Website”), including prospective employees who apply for a role through our Careers page.

This Privacy Policy explains what personal data we collect, why we collect it, how we use and protect it, and the choices and rights available to you. It applies to every page of the Website, including Careers, Contact, and our general information and services pages.

This Policy is written to comply with the Nigeria Data Protection Act, 2023 (“NDPA”) and the regulations of the Nigeria Data Protection Commission (“NDPC”).

By using the Website or submitting information to us, for example through the contact form or a job application, you acknowledge that you have read and understood this Policy.

2. Who We Are

Data Network Infrastructures Limited is the data controller responsible for personal data collected through this Website.

  • Address: 15B Ogidi Crescent, off Christ Avenue, off Admiralty Way, Lekki Phase 1, Lagos, Nigeria
  • General enquiries: info@dnilsolutions.com
  • Careers enquiries: careers@dnilsolutions.com
  • Phone: +234 807 897 3645

3. Information We Collect

Information you give us directly:

  • Contact form (Contact page): name, email address, phone number, organisation (where provided), and the content of your message.
  • Job applications (Careers page): name, email address, phone number, CV or résumé, cover letter, work experience, education history, professional certifications (for example Cisco or other technical or professional credentials), portfolio or LinkedIn links, and anything else you choose to include in your application.
  • Any other information you send us directly by email to info@dnilsolutions.com or careers@dnilsolutions.com.
  • Collected automatically when you browse: IP address and approximate location, browser type, device type and operating system, pages visited and time spent on them, the site that referred you, and cookie identifiers and similar tracking data (see section 12).
  • We do not knowingly seek sensitive personal data, such as health information, religious belief, political opinion, or similar categories recognised under the NDPA, through this Website. Please do not include such details in the contact form or your job application unless it is directly relevant and requested, for example information needed to support a reasonable accommodation.

The contact form, field by field

This section states what the code does, in addition to what section 3 describes. The contact form on the contact page collects the fields below. First name, last name, email address and message are required; phone and company are optional. Each field is trimmed and truncated to the length shown before it is sent.

The form also includes a hidden field named “website” which is never shown to you and must stay empty. It exists to reject automated submissions. Submissions are rate limited to five per minute from one IP address.

First name
Required · up to 100 characters
Last name
Required · up to 100 characters
Email address
Required · up to 254 characters
Phone number
Optional · up to 40 characters
Company
Optional · up to 150 characters
Message
Required · up to 5,000 characters

Verifiable in: src/lib/contact/validate.ts, src/app/api/contact/route.ts

Where contact form data goes today

Your enquiry is validated and rate limited on this website, and it is not sent to any third party service. No email provider, customer relationship system or database receives it.

Delivery has not been configured yet, so the form shows its success state and sends nothing at all. This section is generated from the site's own configuration and will change automatically on the day delivery is switched on.

Verifiable in: src/components/sections/contact/ContactModal.tsx, src/app/api/contact/route.ts

The job application form, field by field

Applying for a role collects the fields below. All four text fields are required, and a CV file is required.

The CV must be a PDF, DOC or DOCX of no more than 5 MB. The file's contents are inspected, not just its name, so a file renamed to look like a PDF is rejected. As with the contact form there is a hidden anti-automation field and a per-IP rate limit.

Full name
Required · up to 100 characters
Email address
Required · up to 254 characters
Phone number
Required · up to 40 characters
LinkedIn profile
Required · up to 300 characters
CV file
Required · up to 5 MB · PDF, DOC or DOCX; contents verified

Verifiable in: src/lib/careers/applicationValidate.ts, src/app/api/apply/route.ts

4. How We Use Your Information

We use your personal data to:

  • Respond to enquiries submitted through the Contact page.
  • Review, assess, and process job applications, and manage recruitment communications.
  • Verify qualifications and, where an offer is made, carry out reference checks with your knowledge.
  • Keep applicant records on file for related future vacancies, where you have consented to this.
  • Operate, secure, and improve the Website.
  • Meet our legal, regulatory, and contractual obligations.
  • We do not use your personal data for automated decision-making that produces legal or similarly significant effects on you without human involvement.

5. Legal Basis for Processing

Under the NDPA, we rely on the following legal bases:

  • Consent, for example when you voluntarily submit a job application or contact form, or agree to be considered for future roles.
  • Performance of a contract, where processing is necessary to take steps you request before entering an employment contract.
  • Legitimate interest, for example to secure the Website and evaluate candidates fairly, provided this does not override your fundamental rights.
  • Legal obligation, where we must retain or disclose data to comply with Nigerian law or a lawful request from the NDPC or another authority.

6. Job Applications and Recruitment Data

Because the Careers page invites applications, we want to be specific about how that data is handled:

  • Applications and CVs are reviewed by DNIL's HR and recruitment team and the relevant hiring manager or managers for the role.
  • We use your application only to assess your suitability for the role or roles you apply for, and, if you consent, other current or future vacancies at DNIL.
  • If your application is unsuccessful, we keep your data for 12 months in case a suitable role comes up, after which it is deleted or anonymised, unless you ask us to remove it sooner.
  • If you are hired, information collected during recruitment becomes part of your employment record and is governed from that point by DNIL's internal HR policies rather than this Website Privacy Policy.
  • You may withdraw your application or ask us to delete your application data at any time by emailing careers@dnilsolutions.com.

Where job application data goes

A job application is written directly into Odoo, a third party recruitment and business system operated outside this website. Your name, email address, phone number and LinkedIn profile are stored there as an applicant record, linked to the role you applied for.

Your CV is uploaded to the same system as a file attached to that applicant record.

This transfer happens at the moment you submit the form. The website does not keep its own copy of your application, and does not store it in a database of its own.

Verifiable in: src/lib/odoo/applicant.ts, src/lib/careers/odooMapping.ts, src/lib/odoo/source.ts

7. How We Share Your Information

We do not sell your personal data. We may share it with:

  • Employees and hiring managers within DNIL who need it to respond to your enquiry or evaluate your application.
  • Service providers who support our operations, for example website hosting and infrastructure, email, and analytics providers, under obligations to protect your data and use it only as we instruct.
  • Professional advisers and regulators, where necessary for legal, audit, or compliance purposes.
  • A successor organisation, in the event of a merger, acquisition, or restructuring of DNIL, subject to the same protections described here.
  • Any other party, only with your explicit consent or where disclosure is required by law.

Third party processors in use today

Odoo is a third party processor of job application data. Application data, including your CV, is held in a DNIL-operated Odoo instance rather than on this website.

The contact form does not use Odoo. No other third party receives data from either form.

Verifiable in: src/lib/odoo/source.ts, docs/odoo.md

8. International Data Transfers

Some service providers we rely on, for example website hosting and infrastructure, may store or process data on servers located outside Nigeria. Where this happens, we take reasonable steps to ensure such providers offer a level of protection consistent with the NDPA's cross-border transfer requirements, including through contractual safeguards.

9. Data Retention

We keep personal data only as long as necessary for the purposes described in this Policy, taking into account:

  • The purpose for which it was collected, for example responding to an enquiry or evaluating an application.
  • Any legal, tax, or regulatory retention requirements.
  • Whether you have withdrawn consent or requested deletion.

10. Data Security

We apply reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards to protect your personal data against unauthorised access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction. No method of transmission over the internet or electronic storage is completely secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security.

11. Your Rights Under the NDPA

Subject to applicable law, you have the right to:

  • Be informed about how your personal data is collected and used, which is the purpose of this Policy.
  • Access the personal data we hold about you.
  • Correct inaccurate or incomplete data.
  • Request deletion of your data, where applicable.
  • Restrict or object to certain processing, including processing based on legitimate interest.
  • Withdraw consent at any time, without affecting the lawfulness of processing carried out before withdrawal.
  • Data portability, where technically feasible.
  • Lodge a complaint with the Nigeria Data Protection Commission if you believe your data has been mishandled, as set out in section 17.
  • To exercise any of these rights, contact us using the details in section 2 or section 16.

12. Cookies and Similar Technologies

The Website may use cookies and similar technologies to:

  • Keep the Website functioning correctly.
  • Understand how visitors use the Website (analytics).
  • Remember your preferences.
  • You can control or disable cookies through your browser settings. Some parts of the Website may not work properly if you disable them.

The specific cookies and analytics in use

Needs input · DNIL

Section 12 describes cookies in general but does not name them. The supplied policy asks for the specific cookies and analytics tools actually running on the live site, for example Vercel Analytics or Google Analytics, so the section names them precisely. This must be audited on the deployed site rather than asserted from the source: no analytics library is present in this repository, but that does not rule out platform-level analytics or a tag manager added at deploy time.

13. Children's Privacy

This Website is intended for a general business and professional audience, including adult job applicants, and the Careers page is intended for individuals who meet the legal working age in Nigeria. We do not knowingly collect personal data from children.

15. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices or in the law. The “Last updated” date at the top shows when it was last revised. Please check back periodically.
