In humanitarian settings a data breach can put people at physical risk, not only financial risk. We help programme, M&E and protection teams collect only what they need, share it safely with partners and close projects without leaving data behind.

What you hold

  • Beneficiary names, locations, photographs and identity numbers
  • Health, protection and case management records
  • Survey and monitoring and evaluation data collected on mobile devices
  • Staff, volunteer and partner records

Rules that apply

  • The Nigeria Data Protection Act 2023 and GAID 2025
  • Donor and UN agency data protection and safeguarding requirements
  • Sector guidance such as the ICRC Handbook on Data Protection in Humanitarian Action

Common gaps we find

  • Consent forms that beneficiaries cannot read or do not understand
  • Field data synced to personal phones and shared through messaging apps
  • Data shared with partners without written agreements
  • No retention rule once a project closes
