Privacy Policy
This site collects very little. Here is exactly what, why, who else is involved, and what you can ask us to do about it.
Who is responsible
This website, greatmantakit.com, is operated by , who is the data controller for any personal information collected through it. Postal address: . For anything in this policy, email .
What we collect, and why
Mailing list. If you join the mailing list, we collect your email address, the date and time you gave consent, and the wording you agreed to. We use it to send you updates from Greatman Takit about new music, shows and news. The legal basis is your consent, which you give by ticking the box on the form — it is never pre-ticked — and can withdraw at any time using the unsubscribe link in any email, or by contacting us.
The mailing list is not yet connected to an email service. Until it is, the form on this site does not send your address anywhere and no addresses are stored. This policy will be updated with the provider’s name before the list goes live.
Technical data. Like every website, this one is served by a hosting provider — Netlify, Inc. (United States) — whose servers automatically log the IP address, browser type, pages requested and time of each request. We use this to run and secure the site. The legal basis is our legitimate interest in keeping the site available and safe. These logs are held by the hosting provider under its own retention schedule.
Analytics. This site does not currently run any analytics or tracking, and sets no cookies for that purpose. If analytics is introduced it will only run with your consent, and this policy will be updated first.
Nothing else. There are no accounts, no payments, no forms other than the mailing list, and no advertising or social-media tracking pixels on this site.
Cookies and local storage
This site does not set cookies of its own. It stores two small preferences in your browser’s local storage, which never leave your device: your analytics choice (only if analytics is enabled) and your motion preference. Full detail is in the Cookie Policy.
Third-party services
YouTube. Videos are embedded through YouTube’s privacy-enhanced domain (youtube-nocookie.com). No request is made to Google until you press play. Once you do, YouTube (Google LLC) receives your IP address and may set its own cookies, under Google’s privacy policy. The video poster frames are served from this site, not from YouTube.
Links to other services. This site links out to Spotify, Apple Music, Audiomack, YouTube and YouTube Music, Instagram, X/Twitter, TikTok, Facebook, Threads, Deezer, Amazon Music, orcd.co (the smart link for the current album). Following a link takes you to that service, whose own privacy policy applies. This site sends them nothing until you click.
Fonts. The typefaces are served from this site’s own domain. No request is made to Google Fonts or any other font service.
Where your data goes
Our hosting provider is based in the United States, so technical data is processed outside Nigeria. Where personal data leaves Nigeria we rely on the safeguards required under the Nigeria Data Protection Act 2023 — .
How long we keep it
- Mailing-list data: .
- Hosting logs: held by Netlify, Inc. (United States) under its own retention schedule; we do not keep separate copies.
Your rights
Under the Nigeria Data Protection Act 2023 you have the right to ask us for access to the personal data we hold about you, to have it corrected or deleted, to restrict or object to how it is used, to receive a copy in a portable form, and to withdraw consent at any time without affecting what was done before you withdrew it. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with the Nigeria Data Protection Commission (NDPC).
If you are in the European Economic Area or the United Kingdom, you have equivalent rights under the GDPR and UK GDPR, including the right to complain to your local supervisory authority.
To exercise any of these, email . We may ask you to confirm your identity before acting on a request.
Children
This site is not directed at children and we do not knowingly collect personal data from anyone under 18. If you believe a child has joined the mailing list, contact us and we will remove the address.
Changes to this policy
If what the site does changes, this policy will change with it, and the effective date above will be updated. Material changes affecting mailing-list subscribers will be announced by email.
