Terms, privacy and cookies

By accessing and using berge.ng you accept and agree to be bound by these Terms and Conditions and our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, you must not use this website.

These terms apply to berge.ng only. Each subsidiary maintains its own terms:

Berge Limited is a technology holding company incorporated in Nigeria, operating through its subsidiaries: Berge Host Limited, Berge Tech Limited, and Berge Media Limited. The group is headquartered in Lagos, Federal Republic of Nigeria.

The berge.ng website serves as the corporate website of the group and does not directly provide hosting, technology, or messaging services — such services are provided by the respective subsidiaries.

The berge.ng website provides corporate information about Berge Limited and its subsidiaries, including information about the group's structure and mission, details about subsidiary companies, contact information, and corporate announcements.

This website does not accept payments, create accounts, or deliver digital services directly. All transactional services are handled by the relevant subsidiary websites.

You agree to use berge.ng only for lawful purposes. You must not:

• Use the site in any way that violates applicable local, national, or international law

Your use of this website is also governed by our Privacy Policy, incorporated into these Terms by reference. Please review it to understand how we handle your information.

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, Berge Limited shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages arising from your use of, or inability to use, this website.

While we endeavour to ensure the accuracy of information on this site, we make no warranties regarding the completeness, accuracy, or reliability of the information provided. Information about subsidiary services and pricing should be verified directly with the relevant subsidiary.

Nothing in these terms excludes or limits our liability for fraud, death, or personal injury caused by our negligence, or any other matter for which it would be illegal to exclude liability.

You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Berge Limited, its subsidiaries, directors, employees, and agents from and against any claims, damages, obligations, losses, liabilities, costs, or debt arising from your use of the website or violation of these Terms.

This website contains links to subsidiary and third-party websites provided for convenience only. We have no control over the contents of those sites and accept no responsibility for them or for any loss or damage arising from your use of them. You will be subject to that site's own terms and privacy policy when you visit.

This website also makes use of third-party services (such as analytics, advertising, embedded media, social media, AI assistants and content delivery networks) which collect data when you use the site. How that data is handled is explained in our Privacy Policy.

Berge Limited reserves the right to modify these Terms at any time. Changes will be effective immediately upon posting, with the "Last updated" date revised accordingly. Continued use of the website constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms.

Berge Limited ("Berge", "we", "us", "our") is committed to protecting the privacy of all visitors to berge.ng. This Privacy Policy describes how we collect, use, store, and protect personal information you provide or that we collect automatically when you use our website.

This policy applies only to berge.ng. Our subsidiary companies operate their own privacy policies:

• bergehost.com/privacy
• bergetech.com/privacy
• bulksms247.com/privacy

Berge Limited acts as the data controller for personal information collected through berge.ng. Contact: privacy@berge.ng · Lagos, Nigeria.

3.1 Information You Provide

When you contact us via email or any contact form, we may collect your name, email address, company name (optional), and the content of your message.

3.2 Information Collected Automatically

Some of this information is collected by third-party services we use to run the website (see Section 6).

We use information we collect to respond to enquiries, engage in business development conversations, improve the website through aggregated analytics, protect the website and systems from malicious activity, and comply with applicable laws. We do not use your information for automated decision-making or profiling.

We process your personal information based on legitimate interests (operating our website and responding to enquiries), consent (where you have explicitly provided it), and legal obligation (where required by law).

We do not sell, trade, or transfer your personal information to outside parties for commercial purposes. We may share your information only with subsidiary companies when your enquiry is directed to them, with service providers who assist in operating our website, and when required by law.

We make use of third-party services, such as website analytics, advertising, embedded media (including YouTube), social media (including the Facebook SDK), AI assistants, content delivery and security (including Cloudflare), hosting, and email delivery, which collect data when you visit or contact us. This can include your IP address, device and browser details, the pages you visit and the messages you send us. These services process the data on our behalf and only to provide their service to us.

We collect and keep the following data for a limited period:

• Email and contact messages
• Website analytics (anonymised, aggregated)
• Server logs, for security purposes

After the applicable retention period, personal data is securely deleted or anonymised.

You have the right to access a copy of your personal data; request correction of inaccurate information; request deletion of your data; restrict or object to processing; and receive your data in a portable format. To exercise these rights, contact privacy@berge.ng. We will respond within 30 days.

We implement HTTPS encryption for all data transmitted to and from this website, restrict access to personal data on a need-to-know basis, and conduct regular security reviews. However, no method of transmission over the internet is 100% secure.

Our website, and third-party services that form part of it (including analytics, advertising, embedded media, social media, AI assistants and content delivery networks), use cookies and similar technologies. We ask you to accept or decline them on your first visit. Our Cookie Policy explains each category and how to change your choice.

berge.ng is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe we have inadvertently collected such information, please contact privacy@berge.ng and we will promptly delete it.

When you navigate from berge.ng to a subsidiary website, you leave the scope of this Privacy Policy. Each subsidiary processes its own customer data under its own privacy policy. Please review these individually at the links above in Section 1.

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will revise the "Last updated" date at the top of this page. Continued use of the website following any changes constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.

When you visit berge.ng, cookies and similar technologies are placed on your device by us and by third-party services that form part of this website. This policy should be read together with our Privacy Policy, which explains how we handle personal information.

Cookies are small text files that a website stores on your device. Similar technologies include pixels, tags, scripts, local storage and software development kits (SDKs). They allow a website and the services built into it to recognise your device, remember information and collect data about how the website is used. In this policy, "cookies" covers all of these technologies.

The first time you visit, we ask for your consent before any non-required cookies are used. You have two options:

• Accept — you agree to the use of cookies and the third-party services described in this policy, and you can use the website.
• Decline — no cookies are placed except one that records your decision. Because the services described below are an integral part of how this website works, the website cannot be used if you decline. You may leave the site or change your decision at any time.

We do not offer partial consent for individual categories.

The table below describes the categories of cookies and the third-party services that may set them. Some services operate only on specific pages, and the list may change as we add or replace services.

Many of the cookies on this website are set by third parties, not by Berge Limited. These providers may collect data about your visit and, in some cases, combine it with data from other websites and services where they operate, under their own privacy policies. They may also transfer data outside Nigeria. We choose providers who protect personal data, but we do not control their cookies. You can learn more on each provider's own privacy and cookie pages.

Some cookies are deleted when you close your browser (session cookies). Others stay on your device until they expire or you delete them (persistent cookies). How long each cookie lasts is set by the service that places it.

You can change your decision at any time with "Cookie settings" at the bottom of every page. You can also delete or block cookies in your browser settings; if you block them, the website will not work as intended. Withdrawing consent does not affect data collected before you withdrew it.

We may update this Cookie Policy when we add or change services or when the law changes. We will revise the "Last updated" date at the top of this page and, where the change is significant, ask for your consent again.
