Oakwood Ventures Limited (RC 9812745), 329 Ambeez Plaza, Wuse Zone 5, Abuja, Nigeria, is the controller of personal data collected through this website. Contact us about privacy at info@oakwoodventures.net.

- Buyer requests: contact name, role, company, business email, phone, website, destination, commodity, quantity, specifications and commercial preferences.

Why we use it
To respond to your enquiry, assess suppliers and sourcing requests, manage follow-up and, with your agreement, introduce buyers and suppliers to each other. We rely on your consent (given when you tick the box on our forms) and on our legitimate interest in running our business. We do not sell personal data.
Who can see it
Authorised Oakwood staff only. We share contact details with a prospective buyer or supplier only when needed to progress an introduction you have asked for. Our service providers act on our instructions: our database and form storage provider (Supabase) and our website hosting and network provider (Cloudflare). Where they process data outside Nigeria, we rely on appropriate safeguards required by applicable data-protection law.
How long we keep it
We keep enquiry information for as long as needed to deal with your request and any resulting business relationship, and normally no longer than 24 months after our last contact unless the law requires us to keep it longer.
Your rights
Under the Nigeria Data Protection Act 2023, and the GDPR where it applies to you, you may ask to access, correct or delete your data, object to or restrict its use, withdraw consent at any time, or request a copy of your data. Email info@oakwoodventures.net and we will respond within a reasonable time. You may also complain to the Nigeria Data Protection Commission.
