Privacy Policy

Your trust is the foundation of OnBuy. This policy explains what we collect, why we collect it, and the choices you have.

Last updated: April 2026

1. Information We Collect

We collect information you provide directly — such as your name, phone number, BVN, government-issued ID, employment details, and home address — when you create an account, complete KYC, or apply for a payment plan.

We also collect device information (model, IMEI, OS version), location data (when permitted), and usage data about how you interact with the OnBuy app and website.

2. How We Use Your Information

  • To verify your identity and assess eligibility for installment plans.
  • To process repayments, deliver devices, and provide customer support.
  • To enable device-locking on financed phones in case of payment default.
  • To detect fraud, comply with regulations, and improve our services.
  • To send important account, payment, and service notifications.

3. How We Share Information

We share data with credit bureaus, KYC providers, payment processors (such as Flutterwave), logistics partners, and regulators where legally required. We never sell your personal data to advertisers.

4. Data Security

All data is encrypted in transit and at rest using industry-standard encryption. Access to customer data inside OnBuy is restricted on a need-to-know basis and every action is logged for audit.

5. Your Rights

You may request access, correction, or deletion of your personal data at any time by contacting privacy@onbuy.ng. Note that we may retain certain records as required by Nigerian financial regulations.

6. Cookies

We use cookies and similar technologies to keep you signed in, remember preferences, and measure how our site performs. You can disable cookies in your browser, but some features may stop working.
