How AfriTravels collects, uses, shares and protects your personal information. Last updated 10 November 2026.

Who we are

AfriTravels is an international mobility and relocation advisory firm operating from Nigeria and Ghana. We decide how the personal information described here is used. Our office is in Elekahia, Port Harcourt, Nigeria.

What we collect

  • Details you give us on our forms: your name, WhatsApp number, email, country or location, highest qualification, the route and intake you are interested in, and anything you add in your message.
  • Case documents, if you become a client: for example your passport, certificates, transcripts, CV, proof of funds and medical or police certificates that your route requires.
  • Route Partner details: your name, contact details, location, occupation and answers on your application or onboarding quiz.
  • Referrals: if a Route Partner refers you, they give us your name, WhatsApp number, route of interest and, if available, your email. Partners must confirm you have agreed to be contacted.
  • Reviews: your name, review and rating, if you choose to send one. We only publish a review if you give permission.

Why we use it

  • To reply to your enquiry and book your assessment or consultation.
  • To assess your profile and recommend suitable routes.
  • To carry out the services in your signed agreement, including admission and visa applications.
  • To run the Route Partners Program, including crediting referrals and making partner payments.
  • To send you updates you have asked for, such as new resources or the Global Jobs waitlist. You can ask us to stop at any time.
  • To keep the records we need for legal, tax and accounting reasons.

We use your information because you have consented, because we need it to provide a service you have asked for, because the law requires it, or because we have a legitimate business need that does not override your rights.

Who we share it with

We do not sell your personal information. We share it only where needed, with:

  • Schools, universities and admission networks you are applying to.
  • Embassies, visa centres and government bodies handling your application.
  • Partner agencies, translators, notaries and other service providers working on your case.
  • Technology providers that help us run our services, including our website form provider, email and WhatsApp.
  • The Route Partner who referred you, limited to what is needed to confirm your referral and pay them.
  • Authorities, where the law requires it.

Sending information abroad

Studying or relocating abroad means your information has to be sent to schools, embassies and service providers in other countries. Some of our technology providers also store information outside Nigeria. We only send what is needed for the purpose you came to us for.

How long we keep it

We keep your information for as long as we need it to deal with your enquiry or case, and afterwards only for as long as legal, tax or accounting rules require. We then delete it or make it anonymous.

Keeping it safe

We limit access to people who need your information for their work and take reasonable steps to protect it. No online system is completely secure, so please only send documents through the channels your Case Manager gives you.

Your rights

Under the Nigeria Data Protection Act 2023 and other data protection laws that apply to you, you can ask to:

  • See the personal information we hold about you.
  • Correct information that is wrong or incomplete.
  • Delete your information, where we are not required to keep it.
  • Object to or restrict how we use it.
  • Receive a copy of it in a usable format.
  • Withdraw your consent at any time. This does not affect anything we did before you withdrew it.

To use any of these rights, contact us using the details below. If you are not satisfied with our response, you can complain to the Nigeria Data Protection Commission or the data protection authority in your country.

Applicants under 18

If you are under 18, a parent or guardian must be involved in your enquiry and must agree to any service before it begins.

Cookies and this website

We do not use advertising or analytics cookies on this website. Our pages load fonts from Google, and our forms are processed by a third-party form provider, so those services receive basic technical information such as your IP address.

Changes to this policy

We may update this policy from time to time. The latest version will always be on this page, with the date it was last updated.
