Last updated: 4 November 2026
This Privacy Policy explains how Damtop Studio collects, uses and protects personal data when you visit damtopstudio.com or contact us.
Damtop Studio is the video editing, video production and motion graphics business of Damilola Araromi, based in Ibadan, Nigeria. For this website, Damtop Studio is the data controller: we decide why and how your personal data is processed.
We handle personal data in line with the Nigeria Data Protection Act 2023 (NDPA) and the regulations and guidance of the Nigeria Data Protection Commission (NDPC). Where we work with clients or visitors in other countries, we also aim to respect the privacy laws that apply to them, such as the EU and UK General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).
Questions about this policy or your data can be sent to hello@damtopstudio.com.
We collect only the information needed to answer you and deliver our services.
Information you give us
Information collected automatically
Our website does not use analytics or advertising trackers, and we do not knowingly collect sensitive personal data. Please do not send us sensitive information, such as health or financial details, through the form or by email.
We use personal data only for the purposes below, each with a lawful basis under section 25 of the NDPA (and the equivalent GDPR basis where it applies).
| Purpose | Data used | Lawful basis |
|---|---|---|
| Replying to enquiries and preparing quotes | Contact form submissions, emails and platform messages | Steps you ask for before a contract; legitimate interests |
| Delivering a video project you commission | Project contacts, briefs and assets | Performance of a contract |
| Recruitment conversations with employers | Contact details and messages | Legitimate interests in responding to hiring enquiries |
| Keeping the website secure and working | Server logs, IP address | Legitimate interests |
| Invoices, tax and legal records | Client and payment details | Legal obligation |
We do not sell your personal data, use it for automated decision-making, or send you marketing emails without your consent.
We do not use analytics, advertising or social-media tracking cookies on this website.
You can block or delete cookies in your browser settings. If we add analytics or other cookies in future, we will update this policy first and ask for your consent where required.
We share personal data only with providers that help us run the website and our business, and only as much as they need.
Some of these providers store or process personal data outside Nigeria. Our website, its database and stored contact form submissions are hosted on Hostinger servers located in Brazil, and Hostinger stores website backups in the United States, so information you submit through our website is transferred to and stored in those countries. Hostinger Email, Google, Fiverr and LinkedIn may also process data in other countries under their own privacy policies. Where personal data is transferred outside Nigeria, we aim to use providers that commit to protecting it and to handle these transfers in line with the NDPA. If you would like more information about these transfers, please contact us.
Our website links to our profiles on Fiverr and LinkedIn. When you follow these links or hire us through Fiverr, your data is handled by those platforms under their own privacy policies, which we do not control. Please read the Fiverr Privacy Policy and LinkedIn Privacy Policy before sharing information there.
We keep personal data only as long as needed for the purpose it was collected.
| Data | How long we keep it |
|---|---|
| Contact form submissions and enquiries that do not lead to a project (deleted from the website database and our inbox) | 12 months after our last contact |
| Client project files and communications | 3 years after the project ends, unless you ask us to delete them sooner |
| Invoices and tax records | 6 years |
| Server logs | For the period set by our hosting provider, Hostinger |
We use reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect personal data, including HTTPS encryption on our website, a secure hosting provider, strong passwords and limited access to stored enquiries and project files. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security. If a breach is likely to put your rights at risk, we will notify the NDPC within 72 hours and inform you where required.
Under the NDPA (and the GDPR, where it applies to you), you have the right to:
To use any of these rights, email hello@damtopstudio.com. We may ask you to confirm your identity and will respond within 30 days.
If you are unhappy with how we handle your data, please contact us first. You also have the right to complain to the Nigeria Data Protection Commission, or to the data-protection authority in your own country.
Our website and services are intended for businesses and adults. We do not knowingly collect personal data from anyone under 18.
We may update this policy when our website or services change. The “Last updated” date at the top shows the latest version.
