Service Providers
We share data with trusted third-party services that help us operate REVIX. Each of these providers is contractually required to protect your data and use it only for the purposes we specify.

We may disclose your information if required by Nigerian law, a court order, or a legitimate legal process. We will notify you of any such request where legally permitted to do so.

If REVIX is acquired by or merged with another company your data may be transferred as part of that transaction. We will notify you before your information is transferred and becomes subject to a different privacy policy.
Data Storage and Security
Your data is stored with the following protections in place:
- Row-level security policies ensure your data is only accessible by your own account and cannot be accessed by other REVIX users
- All data is encrypted at rest and in transit using industry-standard encryption
- Authentication is handled securely with support for secure password hashing and OAuth tokens

Data Retention
We retain your data for as long as your account remains active. If you cancel your subscription your account data is retained for 90 days in case you decide to reactivate. After 90 days of inactivity following cancellation we delete your personal data from our active systems.
Some data may be retained in backup systems for up to 12 months before permanent deletion. Anonymised and aggregated usage statistics that cannot be linked back to you may be retained indefinitely for product improvement purposes.
No System Is Perfect
While we take every reasonable step to protect your data, no system is completely secure. If a data breach occurs that affects your personal information we will notify you within 72 hours of becoming aware of it and provide guidance on steps you can take to protect yourself.
Communications
REVIX sends several types of communications and you have control over most of them.
Transactional Messages
These are messages directly related to your use of the service. You cannot opt out of these while your account is active because they are essential to the service working correctly. They include account confirmation emails, password reset emails, subscription receipts, and security alerts.
Reminder Notifications
These are the task and invoice reminders that REVIX sends to help you stay on top of your business. You can enable or disable email reminders and WhatsApp reminders independently from your Settings page inside the REVIX app at any time.
Client Notifications
When you set up automatic payment reminders for your clients REVIX sends messages to your clients on your behalf. These messages come from REVIX but contain your business name. You control which clients receive these messages and can disable them at any time from the invoice settings.
Product Updates and Announcements
Occasionally we send emails about new REVIX features, events, or important updates. You can opt out of these at any time by toggling off Product Updates and Announcements in your Settings page or by clicking the unsubscribe link at the bottom of any email.
