Afrolongevity is governed by its executive board and guided by an independent advisory board.
This policy explains what personal information we collect, why we collect it, how we use and protect it, and the choices available to you.
We process personal data on the basis of your consent, our legitimate interest in operating our programs, and compliance with law. We do not sell your personal data.

We retain personal data only as long as necessary for the purposes described here or as required by law, and we apply reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect it against unauthorised access, loss or misuse.
Depending on your location, you may have rights under data-protection laws such as the Nigeria Data Protection Act, the South African Protection of Personal Information Act (POPIA) and the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). These may include the right to access, correct, delete or restrict processing of your data, to object to processing, to data portability, and to withdraw consent at any time. To exercise these rights, contact us using the details below. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with your local data-protection authority.
