How We Use Your Information

Specific operational, matching, and regulatory purposes for data processing.

Information collected from you is used strictly for legitimate commercial and operational purposes, including:

  • Providing Core Services: Generating your personalized BALL Score™, recommending tailored property matches, coordinating physical inspections, and administering milestone escrow accounts.
  • Customer Communication: Responding to your advisory briefs, sending confirmation updates, dispatching survey summaries, and relaying verified inspection reports.
  • Market Insights: Delivering property newsletters, neighborhood appreciation trends, and legal updates (you may unsubscribe from non-transactional marketing at any time).
  • Security & Fraud Prevention: Detecting fraudulent listings, defending platform infrastructure against cyber threats, verifying user identities, and ensuring milestone contract integrity.
  • Regulatory Compliance: Complying with statutory anti-money laundering (AML) protocols and legal reporting standards mandated under Nigerian real estate governance.
05

Information Sharing & Third-Party Disclosures

Strict boundaries on data access: we never sell your personal information.

Zero Data Sale Guarantee

BALL will never sell, lease, or monetize your personal information or contact details to third-party advertisers or telemarketers without your explicit consent.

We share personal information strictly within the following narrow circumstances:

  • Corporate Affiliates: With subsidiaries, joint venture entities, or parent companies under the Highrachy Group to maintain operational continuity and customer support.
  • Verified Transaction Partners: When you express intent to purchase or inspect a property, relevant contact details and pre-qualification summaries are shared with the verified developer, certified surveyor, or escrow partner to execute your transaction.
  • Legal Mandates & Law Enforcement: When required by court subpoena, statutory directive, or competent Nigerian judicial authorities to cooperate with law enforcement and prevent financial crimes.
06

Digital Signatures, Audits & Electronic Consent

Cryptographic security, audit logs, and electronic transaction consent.

When utilizing digital signature functionalities on the BALL platform to execute property reservations, allocation agreements, or milestone contracts:

  • You consent to conduct transactions electronically and acknowledge that digital signatures carry identical legal enforceability to physical signatures.
  • Our servers maintain timestamped cryptographic audit logs recording IP address, device fingerprints, and verified one-time passwords associated with each signature event.
  • These records are securely retained to provide tamper-proof evidentiary integrity for all contractual milestones.
07

Data Retention & Safeguards

Encryption, cloud security, and retention limits.

We retain your personal information only for as long as necessary to fulfill the services requested, satisfy statutory real estate transaction archiving periods under Nigerian law, or resolve commercial disputes.

All data is transmitted via industry-grade Transport Layer Security (TLS 1.3) encryption. Stored databases and property records are protected with multi-layered role-based access controls, firewalls, and periodic vulnerability audits to prevent unauthorized access or disclosure.

08

Under applicable Nigerian data protection guidelines, you are entitled to:

  • Access: Request a copy of the personal information BALL holds regarding your profile and transactions.
  • Correction: Request rectification of inaccurate, outdated, or incomplete personal details.
  • Deletion: Request erasure of your personal data where retention is no longer required by statutory real estate compliance or active contractual obligations.
