NITDA PUBLISHES LIST OF COMPLIANT ORGANISATIONS
The National Information Technology Development Agency (NITDA) has recently released its 2021 List of Data Complaint Companies pursuant to the provisions of the Nigeria Data Protection Regulation (NDPR).
The list of compliant companies can be found here.
We are pleased to announce that ALL our clients who engaged us for the 2021 compliance assessment were published on the list.
Glad Tidings for Compliant Companies:
NITDA has developed a NITDA Certified Compliant Mark for the identified companies to place on their websites, media handles, et cetera. This mark of quality will project the companies’ compliance and boost the brand image of the company. It is highly probable that the public/investors may look out for this mark before dealing with an organisation.
2022 Next Steps:
The compliance assessment is an annual obligation, with a statutory deadline of March every year. Thus, organisations are now due for assessment and reporting on their data protection practices. It must be borne in mind that NITDA has mechanisms in place to police non-compliant companies and met out sanctions where necessary.
