How we look after your information.
Last updated: November 2026
This notice explains how the African Film Futures Summit ("AFFS", "we"), an event brought to you by The Pinnacles🎖, collects and uses personal information through affs.globalpinnacles.com. We handle personal data in line with the Nigeria Data Protection Act 2023.
What we collect
- Details you give us in our forms: name, email, phone or WhatsApp number, country and city, organisation, role, website or social link, and the information you write in your application or message.
- Your preferences, such as whether you want to receive updates.
- Limited technical data used to protect our forms from abuse, such as a scrambled (hashed) version of your IP address and your browser type.
Why we use it
- To process your registration, application or enquiry and contact you about it.
- To plan and run the summit, including curating attendance and selecting volunteers, exhibitors, speakers and partners.
- To send AFFS news and updates, only if you choose to receive them.
- To understand interest in the summit in aggregate, for example how many people registered in each category.
We rely on your consent, which you give when you submit a form, and on what is necessary to respond to your request.
Who we share it with
We do not sell your personal data. We share it only with people who need it to deliver the summit (our organising team, and service providers such as our web host and email provider) under appropriate confidentiality. We will ask before sharing your details with any partner.
How long we keep it
We keep registration and application data for up to 24 months after the summit to plan future editions, unless you ask us to delete it sooner. Newsletter subscriptions are kept until you unsubscribe.
Your rights
You can ask to see, correct or delete your information, withdraw your consent, or unsubscribe from updates at any time. Email affs@globalpinnacles.com. You also have the right to complain to the Nigeria Data Protection Commission.
Security
Your information is stored on secured servers and is accessible only to authorised members of the organising team.
