Privacy

Last updated 10 September 2026

This explains what Anty Virtual collects, why, how long we keep it, and how to have it removed. It is written to be read, not to be survived.

If you are verifying your identity

Riders and people in Business Development are asked for a National Identification Number and a photograph. This is because both represent us unsupervised and are paid money that is hard to recover, so we need to know who they are.

  • Your photo and ID go straight to Smile Identity, the licensed verification service that performs the check. They do not pass through Anty Virtual and we do not store them.
  • What we keep is the outcome: whether the number was verified, whether the photograph matched, a match score, and the reference number of the check. Not the images.
  • Your NIN is stored so a duplicate application can be spotted, and for as long as you work with us plus seven years, which is the period Nigerian tax and payment records must be kept.
  • You can refuse. If you would rather not be checked this way, tell us and a person will verify you another way. It is slower; it is not a dead end.

If you are a customer of a business that uses us

Your name, phone number and order or visit history belong to that business. We hold them on their behalf and do not sell them, rent them, or use them to market anything to you on our own account.

Review requests are sent to every customer on the same terms. We never withhold a review link based on what somebody is likely to say.

If you are a business using Anty Virtual

We hold what you give us to run the service: your business details, your menu and prices, your bank details for payouts, and the records of what was sold. Payments go to your own account through your own payment provider. Money never sits with us.

Who else sees any of it

Only the services needed to do the job: identity verification, payments, messaging, and hosting. Each sees the minimum for its part. None of them is given data to use for their own purposes.

Getting your data, or getting rid of it

Write to privacy@antyvirtual.com and we will send you what we hold about you, correct it, or delete it. We answer within 30 days. Where the law requires us to keep something — tax and payment records — we will say so and say for how long, rather than quietly keeping it.
