Legal Information
Last updated: August 2026
This website is operated by Samuel Asingba. The words “we”, “us” and “our” refer to Samuel Asingba and Lagos SEO Expert.
1. Privacy Policy
1.1 Who controls your information
Samuel Asingba is responsible for personal information collected directly through this website and subsequent business communications.
1.2 Information you provide
We may receive information such as:
- Your name and email address.
- The message you enter in the contact form.
- Your WhatsApp number, profile name and message when you contact us through WhatsApp.
- Business, website and project information you provide during an enquiry.
- Billing and transaction records if you later become a client.
- Any other information you choose to send to us.
Do not send passwords, payment card details or highly sensitive information through the public contact form.
1.3 How the WhatsApp form works
The contact form does not save its contents in a database on this website. It formats the information you enter and opens a prepared message in WhatsApp.
Nothing is sent to us until you press the final send button inside WhatsApp. When you send the message, WhatsApp may process your phone number, profile information, message and technical information under its own privacy policy.
1.4 Why we use personal information
We may use information to:
- Respond to enquiries.
- Discuss SEO, GEO, consulting or related services.
- Prepare proposals and provide requested services.
- Manage client relationships and project communication.
- Maintain business, tax and transaction records.
- Protect the website and investigate misuse.
- Understand how visitors use the website.
- Meet legal or regulatory obligations.
We will not add you to an unrelated marketing list merely because you sent an enquiry.
1.5 Legal grounds for processing
Depending on the situation, we process information based on your consent, steps requested before entering a contract, performance of a contract, compliance with a legal obligation or a legitimate business interest that does not override your rights.
1.6 Sharing information
We do not sell or rent personal information. Information may be shared only when reasonably necessary with:
- Google, WhatsApp and other providers used to operate the website and communication channels.
- Contractors working on an authorised client project.
- Accountants, lawyers or other professional advisers.
- Government, regulatory or law-enforcement authorities where disclosure is legally required.
- A successor if the relevant business or service is reorganised, sold or transferred.
Service providers have their own terms and privacy practices. Their processing is outside our direct control.
1.7 International processing
Google, Meta, WhatsApp and other providers may process information outside Nigeria. Where we control an international transfer, we will use a lawful transfer basis and reasonable safeguards required by applicable data-protection law.
1.8 Retention
Enquiry and client information is retained only for as long as reasonably necessary to respond, provide services, maintain legitimate business records, resolve disputes or comply with the law.
Information that is no longer required may be deleted, anonymised or securely archived where continued retention is legally necessary.
1.9 Security
We use reasonable steps to protect information under our control. However, no website, email service or messaging platform can be guaranteed to be completely secure.
1.10 Your data rights
Subject to applicable law and any valid exemptions, you may ask us to:
- Explain whether we hold personal information about you.
- Provide access to your personal information.
- Correct inaccurate or incomplete information.
- Delete information that no longer has a lawful reason to be retained.
- Restrict or object to certain processing.
- Provide eligible information in a portable format.
- Withdraw consent where processing depends on consent.
We may request reasonable proof of identity before acting on a data request.
3. Terms of Use
3.1 Using this website
You may use this website for lawful personal and business purposes. You must not:
- Attempt to gain unauthorised access to the website or related systems.
- Introduce malware, harmful code or automated attacks.
- Scrape, copy or republish substantial website content without permission.
- Impersonate another person or provide knowingly false information.
- Use the website to violate another person’s rights or any applicable law.
- Interfere with the website’s operation or security.
Access may be restricted where there is suspected fraud, abuse, security risk or unlawful activity.
3.2 Enquiries do not create a client relationship
Sending a contact form, WhatsApp message or email does not automatically create a consultant-client relationship, partnership, agency relationship or duty to accept a project.
A paid engagement begins only when its scope, price and terms have been accepted through a proposal, contract, invoice or another clear written agreement.
3.3 Initial messages are not confidential
An initial enquiry does not create a non-disclosure agreement. Do not send trade secrets, passwords, private customer data or other confidential material until suitable arrangements have been agreed.
3.4 Accurate information and authority
You are responsible for providing accurate project information. If you provide website access, analytics data, content, trademarks or other materials, you confirm that you have authority to use and share them for the project.
4. SEO and Consulting Services
The exact scope, deliverables, timeline, fees and payment schedule for paid services will be stated in the relevant proposal, contract or invoice.
Where a separate written agreement conflicts with these general website terms, the separate agreement controls the paid engagement.
Cancellation and refund rights will be handled according to the written service agreement and applicable Nigerian consumer law. Nothing on this page removes a right that cannot legally be removed.
Client delays, missing access, late approvals, incomplete information or unpaid invoices may affect delivery dates and results.
5. Intellectual Property
Unless otherwise stated, the original text, graphics, branding, page designs, strategies, downloads and other materials published on this website belong to Samuel Asingba or are used with permission.
You may quote a short portion for commentary or reference when you provide clear credit and a link to the original page. You may not copy, reproduce, sell, repackage or publish substantial parts of the website without written permission.
Ownership and usage rights for paid client deliverables will be governed by the relevant service agreement. Third-party tools, trademarks and content remain the property of their respective owners.
6. SEO, GEO and Content Disclaimer
6.1 No guaranteed rankings
Search engines, AI platforms and social platforms are controlled by third parties. Their algorithms, policies, interfaces and results can change without notice.
We do not guarantee a particular ranking, traffic level, number of leads, revenue figure, AI citation or business outcome. Results depend on many factors, including competition, website history, implementation, budget, market demand and platform changes.
6.2 Case studies and past results
Rankings, traffic figures, lead numbers, testimonials and case studies describe specific past situations. They are not promises that every website or business will achieve the same result.
6.3 General information
Articles and other free website content are provided for general information. They are not legal, tax, financial or investment advice. You remain responsible for decisions made for your website or business.
6.4 Accuracy and updates
We try to publish useful and accurate information. SEO practices, software, prices, laws and platform rules change. Some content may become outdated, incomplete or unsuitable for a particular situation.
6.5 Third-party links
Links to external websites are provided for convenience or reference. We do not control their content, availability, security or privacy practices. A link does not automatically mean endorsement.
6.6 Platform affiliation
Unless clearly stated, Lagos SEO Expert is not affiliated with or endorsed by Google, Meta, WhatsApp, OpenAI or any other search, social or AI platform mentioned on this website.
7. Liability
To the extent permitted by law, we are not responsible for indirect or consequential losses arising solely from the use of free website content, temporary website unavailability, third-party links or changes made by search engines and other external platforms.
Nothing in these terms excludes, restricts or waives liability or consumer rights that cannot legally be excluded. This includes rights relating to fraud, negligence, misrepresentation, defective performance and other protections provided by applicable Nigerian law.
Liability relating to a paid project will also be governed by the relevant written service agreement and applicable law.
8. Governing Law and Disputes
These website terms are governed by the laws of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.
If a dispute arises, both sides should first attempt to resolve it through direct, good-faith communication. If it cannot be resolved, the matter may be taken before a court or other competent authority in Lagos State, subject to any mandatory consumer right or jurisdiction provided by law.
9. Changes to This Page
This page may be updated when the website, services, technology or legal requirements change. The latest version will be published here with a revised update date.
If one part of these terms is found to be unlawful or unenforceable, the remaining parts will continue to apply to the extent permitted by law.
