This Privacy Policy explains how Solar System handles personal information connected with its website, project enquiries, Academy applications and student portal.
1. Who to contact
Solar System is responsible for the information collected through this website. For privacy questions or requests, email admin@techgig.com.ng. Office contact address: Address demo, 23 demo.
2. Information we collect
- Project enquiries: your name, email address, phone number, service interest and information you provide about your property or power needs.
- Academy applications: applicant details, selected programme and cohort, and supporting information submitted with an application.
- Student accounts: account details, enrolment, attendance, assignments, assessments, results, payments and issued certificate records.
- Payment records: transaction references, amounts, status and reconciliation information. When an online payment provider is used, payment details are handled through that provider.
- Technical information: login and security records, IP addresses and information required to operate and protect the website.
Please provide only information needed for your request. Do not include passwords, full payment-card details or unrelated sensitive information in enquiry forms.
3. Why we use information
We use information to answer enquiries, prepare assessments and quotations, process applications, administer training and student access, record payments, issue and verify certificates, provide support and protect the website against misuse.
Depending on the activity, processing may be necessary to respond to steps you request before a contract, deliver an agreed service, meet a legal obligation, pursue a legitimate operational or security interest, or act on your consent. Where consent is the basis, you may withdraw it without affecting earlier lawful processing.
4. Cookies and external services
Essential cookies support login sessions and account security. Blocking these cookies may prevent student or administrator access. External payment pages, linked services and embedded content may apply their own privacy and cookie policies. Review those policies when using those services.
5. Sharing and certificate verification
Information may be accessed by authorised staff and service providers needed for hosting, email delivery, payment processing or technical support, or disclosed where required by law. Only information needed for the relevant purpose should be shared.
A person with an issued certificate number may use the verification service to see the associated student name, programme, level, issue date and certificate status. Contact the Academy if a verification record is incorrect or raises a privacy concern.
6. Storage, retention and security
Records are retained for as long as needed for the purpose for which they were collected, applicable recordkeeping obligations and the resolution of disputes. Different retention needs apply to enquiries, student records, financial records and credentials. Contact us to ask about a particular record.
Access controls and account authentication help protect information. No website or transmission method can provide an absolute security guarantee. Protect your login details and report suspected unauthorised access promptly.
Hosting or service providers may process information outside Nigeria. Where a transfer is involved, applicable requirements and appropriate safeguards must be addressed.
7. Your rights and choices
Subject to applicable law and relevant exceptions, you may request access to your information, correction, erasure, restriction, portability or objection to processing. You may also withdraw consent where processing relies on consent. We may need to verify your identity before handling a request.
Email admin@techgig.com.ng with enough information to identify the record concerned. You may also raise a complaint with the Nigeria Data Protection Commission.
8. Young applicants
If an application concerns a person below the applicable age for independent consent or contracting, contact the Academy to arrange the appropriate parent or guardian involvement before submitting personal information.
