Plain-language summary: APSG Nigeria uses member information to manage registration, verification, communication, mobilisation, support, and secure access to member records. This page is a public-facing policy template and should be reviewed by APSG leadership or legal counsel before final publication.

1. Overview

This Privacy Policy explains how APC Progressive Support Group (APSG Nigeria), referred to as “APSG”, “we”, “us”, or “our”, collects, uses, stores, protects, and manages information submitted through our website, registration forms, member portal, admin dashboard, contact channels, and related digital services.

By using the APSG website or submitting your details, you acknowledge that your information may be processed for official APSG membership, verification, coordination, communication, and administrative purposes.

2. Information We Collect

Depending on how you use the website, we may collect the following information:

  • Identity details: first name, last name, registration number, designation, and role level.
  • Contact details: phone number, WhatsApp number, email address, and related communication information.
  • Location details: state, LGA/LCDA, ward, and other mobilisation or verification location details.
  • Verification details: PVC number, APC card number, uploaded PVC/APC documents, profile photo, and verification status.
  • Account details: bank name and account number where voluntarily supplied or administratively required.
  • Technical details: browser type, access time, device information, and basic usage data used to improve security and performance.

3. How We Use Your Information

We may use your information to:

  • create, verify, and manage APSG membership records;
  • generate and recover APSG registration numbers or member IDs;
  • prevent duplicate registrations and protect record accuracy;
  • support coordinator review, member communication, and mobilisation activities;
  • process document uploads, account updates, and member profile changes;
  • maintain website security, audit trails, and administrative reporting;
  • respond to support requests, complaints, or official enquiries.

4. How Information May Be Shared

APSG does not sell member information. Information may be accessible to authorised APSG administrators, coordinators, technical service providers, or official representatives who need the information for membership, verification, mobilisation, communication, or system maintenance purposes.

We may also disclose information where required by lawful authority, security investigation, dispute resolution, or to protect the rights, safety, and integrity of APSG, members, administrators, or the public.

5. Data Security

We use reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect member information from unauthorised access, loss, misuse, alteration, or disclosure. These measures may include access-controlled dashboards, secure database services, storage controls, and limited admin access.

No online system can be guaranteed to be completely secure. Members should protect their APSG ID, phone number, and account access details and report suspicious activity immediately.

6. Data Retention

We retain membership information for as long as necessary to support APSG registration records, verification, coordination, legal obligations, dispute resolution, or organisational reporting. Where information is no longer required, we may archive, anonymise, or delete it in line with operational needs.

7. Your Choices and Rights

Subject to applicable policies and laws, members may request review, correction, or update of inaccurate personal information. You may also request clarification on how your information is being used. Some information may need to remain on record where required for verification, audit, legal, or organisational integrity purposes.

To request an update, members may use the member portal, contact an authorised coordinator, or reach APSG through the official contact channels listed on the website.

8. Cookies and Website Technologies

The APSG website may use local storage, session storage, cookies, or similar technologies to support login sessions, member portal access, theme preferences, form functionality, and general site performance. You may control cookie settings through your browser, but some features may not work properly if disabled.

9. Minors

The APSG membership portal is intended for eligible participants who can lawfully provide the required information. If information belonging to a minor is submitted in error, a parent, guardian, or authorised representative may contact APSG for review.

10. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our website, membership process, security practices, or legal requirements. The “Last updated” date on this page shows the latest revision date.
