Section 3

Virtual Economy & Entertainment Disclaimer

This section is important. Please read it carefully to understand the nature of the Sportfolio platform and how it relates to your personal data.

NOT a Gambling Platform

Sportfolio does not operate real-money gambling services or betting.

NOT a Crypto Exchange

SPF tokens and virtual assets are not cryptocurrencies or blockchain assets.

NOT a Financial Investment

Sportfolio does not provide investment advice or regulated financial services.

Sportfolio is a fantasy sports and virtual trading platform for entertainment purposes only. All player and club shares are virtual assets whose values are influenced by real-life football match performance, in-game market mechanics, and user activity — not by real financial markets.

While users may fund a virtual wallet and request withdrawals of available balances, these transactions relate to the game's virtual economy and are managed through our payment processing partnerships. Profits from the game are not guaranteed, and past performance of virtual assets does not indicate future results.

The data we collect in connection with your virtual trading activity (portfolio holdings, prediction records, wallet transactions) is used solely to operate the game and maintain accurate records of your in-platform activity. It does not constitute financial data regulated under investment law.

Section 4

KYC & Identity Verification

To protect users and maintain platform integrity, Sportfolio may require identity verification (Know Your Customer / KYC) before approving certain account actions, including processing withdrawal requests.

What KYC Data We Collect

  • A clear image of a valid government-issued ID (National ID / NIN slip, Voter's Card, or Driver's License)
  • A recent selfie or portrait photograph for identity matching purposes
  • Your National Identification Number (NIN) or Bank Verification Number (BVN) where required

How KYC Data Is Used & Protected

  • KYC data is used exclusively for identity verification, fraud prevention, and regulatory compliance — never for marketing or profiling.
  • ID images and selfies are stored in encrypted, access-restricted cloud storage. Only authorised Sportfolio staff members involved in the verification review process may access them.
  • KYC data is never shared with third parties except as required by Nigerian law enforcement or regulatory authority requests.
  • You will be notified within the platform when KYC is required and for what purpose.

KYC verification is voluntary in most cases but may be required to process withdrawals or access higher platform limits. Choosing not to complete KYC will not affect your ability to use core platform features, only certain financial transactions.

Section 5

Data Security

We implement robust technical and organisational security measures to protect your personal information against unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction.

  • Encryption in transit: All data between your browser/app and our servers is transmitted over HTTPS with TLS encryption, protecting it from interception.
  • Password hashing: User passwords are never stored in plain text. We use industry-standard cryptographic hashing algorithms to store credentials securely.
  • Access controls: Internal access to user data is restricted to authorised personnel on a need-to-know basis, with internal access logs maintained.
  • Secure payment processing: We use regulated third-party payment processors (e.g., Korapay/Paystack). We do not store full card numbers, PINs, or CVVs on our servers.
  • Secure KYC storage: Uploaded ID images and selfies are stored in encrypted, access-restricted cloud storage separate from our general database.
  • Regular security reviews: We periodically review our infrastructure, API security, and codebase to identify and remediate vulnerabilities.

No system is 100% impenetrable. While we take all reasonable measures, we cannot guarantee absolute security. If you suspect unauthorized access to your account, contact us immediately at info@sportfolio.ng.

Section 6

Data Sharing & Third Parties

We do not sell your personal information. We share data only in the following limited and necessary circumstances:

Recipient Purpose Data Shared

Cloud Hosting Providers Secure server infrastructure Encrypted database and file storage
Email / SMS Providers Delivering transactional notifications Email address, phone number, notification content
Nigerian Authorities Legal compliance, fraud investigations Data requested under lawful order only

All third-party service providers are contractually bound to protect your data and may only use it to provide their services to Sportfolio Technologies. We do not integrate with advertising networks, data brokers, or social tracking platforms.

Business Transfers

In the event of a merger, acquisition, or sale of Sportfolio Technologies, user data may be transferred to the successor entity. We will provide notice via email or in-app notification before your data becomes subject to a materially different privacy policy.

Section 7

We retain your personal information only as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes described in this policy or to comply with applicable law.

You have meaningful control over your personal data. The following rights are available to all Sportfolio users:

To exercise any of the above rights, contact us at info@sportfolio.ng. We will respond within 30 days. We may require identity verification before processing certain requests.

Account deletion requests will result in the removal of your active profile from our systems within 90 days. Some information (e.g., financial transaction records) may be retained as required by Nigerian law even after account closure.

Section 9

Children's Privacy

The Sportfolio platform is intended for users who are 13 years of age or older. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under the age of 13.

If you are a parent or guardian and believe that your child under 13 has created an account or submitted personal data on our platform without your consent, please contact us immediately at info@sportfolio.ng. We will promptly investigate and delete any such information.

Additionally, because the Platform involves funded wallet activities and financial transactions, we strongly recommend that users be at least 18 years of age to engage in deposit and withdrawal features. KYC verification requirements serve as a practical enforcement mechanism for this.

If we discover that we have inadvertently collected data from a child under 13, we will delete that account and all associated data without delay. We encourage parents to actively monitor their children's use of online platforms.

Section 10

Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our services, technology, or legal obligations. When changes are made, we will:

  • Update the Effective Date at the top of this page
  • Notify registered users via email or in-app notification for material changes
  • Provide at least 14 days' notice before changes that materially affect your rights take effect

Your continued use of the Sportfolio Platform after changes become effective constitutes your acceptance of the revised Privacy Policy. The most current version will always be accessible at sportfolio.ng/privacy_policy.php.
