The Operational Challenge

The Problem We Solve

The Nigeria Data Protection Act (NDPA) 2023 requires organizations processing personal data to maintain strict data protection standards, document technical safeguards, and file annual statutory compliance audit returns. Non-compliance exposes leadership to regulatory scrutiny, enforcement orders, public notices, and customer trust loss. Many organizations lack a structured data inventory, documented incident response procedures, or dedicated privacy expertise to navigate regulatory expectations.

Statutory Transparency Notice: Statutory Notice: Under the Nigeria Data Protection Act 2023, annual Compliance Audit Returns (CAR) must be filed with the Nigeria Data Protection Commission (NDPC) through a licensed Data Protection Compliance Organisation (DPCO). ADX Group provides technical audit, data mapping, and readiness engineering, and works in direct collaboration with our licensed DPCO partner, [PLACEHOLDER: partner DPCO name], for formal statutory filing. ADX Group is an engineering consultancy and does not independently issue statutory audit certificates.
