Privacy Policy

Last updated:

1) Scope

This Privacy Policy describes how Amistad Mexico (the “Company”, “we”, “us”) collects, uses, discloses, and safeguards personal data when you visit our website and use the booking features. Where we embed a third-party scheduling tool (e.g., Calendly), that provider may process your data as an independent or joint controller according to its own privacy policy.

2) Data We Collect

3) How We Use Data

We rely on one or more of the following legal bases: (a) performance of a contract (processing necessary to deliver booked meetings), (b) legitimate interests (e.g., securing and improving the Service), (c) consent (e.g., certain communications), and (d) compliance with legal obligations. Where Nigerian law applies (e.g., NDPR/Data Protection Act, 2023), we process data in accordance with principles of lawfulness, fairness, purpose limitation, data minimization, accuracy, storage limitation, integrity, and accountability.

5) Sharing & International Transfers

We may share personal data with service providers that help operate the Service (e.g., scheduling, email, hosting). These providers are bound by contractual obligations to protect data and use it only as instructed. If data is transferred internationally, we implement appropriate safeguards (such as contractual clauses or other applicable mechanisms) to protect your information.

6) Data Retention

We retain personal data only for as long as necessary to provide the Service and fulfill the purposes outlined here, unless a longer retention period is required or permitted by law. We periodically review the data we hold and either anonymize or securely delete it when it is no longer needed.

7) Security

We use administrative, technical, and organizational measures designed to protect personal data (e.g., least-privilege access, transport encryption on hosting infrastructure, and routine patching). No method of transmission or storage is 100% secure; we cannot guarantee absolute security.

8) Your Rights

Subject to applicable law, you may have rights to access, rectify, erase, restrict, object to processing, and request portability of your personal data, as well as to withdraw consent at any time (without affecting prior lawful processing). You may also have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority (e.g., Nigeria Data Protection Commission for NDPR/NDPA matters). To exercise rights, contact us using the details below.

9) Cookies & Similar Technologies

Our site uses only essential cookies by default (e.g., for the embedded scheduler). If we enable analytics or marketing cookies, we will update this Policy and/or display a consent banner as required. You can control cookies through your browser settings; disabling certain cookies may impact functionality.

10) Children’s Data

The Service is not directed to children under 13 (or the relevant minimum age in your jurisdiction). We do not knowingly collect personal data from children. If you believe a child has provided data to us, please contact us and we will take appropriate steps.

11) Changes to this Policy

We may update this Policy periodically. The updated date appears at the top of this page. If we make material changes, we may notify you via the website or email where feasible.
