Cookie Policy
This section (“Cookie Policy”) applies to all information collected through the Site, including the technologies we and third parties with whom we partner, use for automatic data collection. We may use cookies and similar tracking technologies (like web beacons and pixels) to access or store Your Data. This Cookie Policy explains the different types of cookies used on the Site and how you can control them. We may change this Cookie Policy at any time.
A browser cookie is a small piece of data that is stored on your device to help websites and mobile apps remember things about you. Other technologies, including Web storage and identifiers associated with your device, may be used for similar purposes. We use cookies, including third-party cookies, for a number of reasons, like protecting your data and account, helping us see which features are most popular, counting visitors to a page, improving our users’ experience, keeping our Site and services secure, providing targeted advertising, and to provide you with a better experience.
The cookies we use generally fall into one of the following categories:
CATEGORIES OF COOKIES | CATEGORIES OF COOKIES |
---|---|
Necessary | To run the Site and to identify and prevent security risks. |
Preferences | To remember your settings and preferences, and to improve your experience on the Site. |
Performance | To collect information about how you use the Site, and monitor and improve the Site’s performance. |

HOW LONG DO WE KEEP YOUR INFORMATION?
In Short: We keep Your Data for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes outlined in this Privacy Policy unless otherwise required by law.
We will only keep Your Data for as long as it is necessary for the purposes set out in this Privacy Policy, unless a longer retention period is required or permitted by law (such as tax, accounting or other legal requirements). No purpose in this Privacy Policy will require us to keep Your Data for longer than the period of time in which users have an account with us.
When we have no ongoing legitimate business need to process Your Data, we will either delete or anonymise it, or, if this is not possible (for example, because your personal information has been stored in backup archives), then we will securely store Your Data and isolate it from any further processing until deletion is possible.
By submitting Your Data to us, or to a third-party via the Site or Services, you acknowledge that you will be voluntarily transferring Your Data to the The Nigerian Republic, a jurisdiction which may not provide the same privacy framework as other regions. We take steps to ensure that the data we collect under this Privacy Policy is stored and processed in accordance with this Privacy Policy regardless of where the data is located.
DO WE COLLECT INFORMATION FROM MINORS?
In Short: We do not knowingly collect data from or market to children under 18 years of age.
The Services are not intended for children under 13 years of age. We do not knowingly solicit data from or market to children under 18 years of age. If we learn that personal information from users less than 18 years of age has been collected, we will deactivate the account and take reasonable measures to promptly delete such data from our records. If you become aware of any data we have collected from children under age 18, please contact us at: info@clix-tech.com.

CONTROLS FOR DO-NOT-TRACK FEATURES
Most web browsers and some mobile operating systems and mobile applications include a Do-Not-Track (“DNT”) feature or setting you can activate to signal your privacy preference not to have data about your online browsing activities monitored and collected. No uniform technology standard for recognising and implementing DNT signals has been finalised. As such, we do not currently respond to DNT browser signals or any other mechanism that automatically communicates your choice not to be tracked online. If a standard for online tracking is adopted that we must follow in the future, we will inform you about that practice in a revised version of this Privacy Policy.
DO WE MAKE UPDATES TO THIS POLICY?
In Short: Yes, we will update this policy as necessary to stay compliant with relevant laws.
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. All changes are effective immediately when we post them and we will use reasonable efforts to alert you about any changes by updating the “Last updated” date of this Privacy Policy. It is your responsibility to review this Privacy Policy frequently to be informed of how we are protecting your information. You will be subject to, and will be deemed to have been made aware of and to have accepted, the changes in any revised Privacy Policy by your continued use of the Site after the date such revised Privacy Policy is posted.
