Privacy Policy

This policy explains what personal information Slas Technologies collects through slastech.com and its subdomains, how we use and protect it, who we share it with, and the rights you have. Slas operates through two companies: Slas Technologies Inc. in Canada and Slas Technologies Limited in Nigeria.

Last updated October 6, 2026

Who is responsible for your information

Slas Technologies Inc. is a federal corporation (corporation number 17464258) with its registered office in Barrie, Ontario, Canada. Slas Technologies Limited is a company registered in Nigeria (RC 849817) with its registered office in Lagos, Nigeria, and is registered with the Nigeria Data Protection Commission.

Which company is responsible depends on where you are and who you deal with. If you are in Nigeria, or you contact us about an engagement with a Nigerian organisation, Slas Technologies Limited is responsible for your information. In every other case, Slas Technologies Inc. is responsible for it. Where we enter into an order form, proposal or other agreement with you, it names the Slas company you are dealing with.

The two companies use the same website and the same systems to handle enquiries, so each may access information the other is responsible for, but only to deal with your request. Each company is responsible for the processing it controls and for the processing the law otherwise makes it responsible for. In this policy, “Slas”, “we” and “us” mean the company responsible for your information.

What this policy covers

This policy covers slastech.com and its industry subdomains, such as stos.slastech.com, seos.slastech.com and nboms.slastech.com, the enquiries you send us through them or by email, and our newsletter.

It does not cover the Slas product applications (for example SlasProp and SlasPay) or the Slas data room. Information you provide there is handled under the terms and privacy notices of that service.

Information we collect

Information you give us. When you request a demo, a pilot or a proposal, or contact us, we collect what you enter in the form: your name and work email address and, if you choose to give them, your company or institution, role, country, sector, organisation type, the products you are interested in, your use case, needs, timeline, budget range and procurement stage, and your message. If you email us, we collect your email and what you send.

Newsletter. If you subscribe to our newsletter, we collect your email address, the date and time you subscribed and confirmed your subscription, the page you subscribed from, and the version of the subscription wording you agreed to.

Information about how you reached us. With a form submission we record the site or subdomain you used and any campaign tags in the link you followed (utm_source, utm_medium and utm_campaign).

Technical information. Our servers receive your IP address and basic request details (such as browser type and the page requested) with every request. We use them to deliver the site, keep it secure and limit abusive traffic.

Analytics, only with your consent. If you accept analytics, we record how you use the site, such as the pages you view and the links and buttons you click. If you decline, or make no choice, no analytics are collected.

We do not ask for, and ask you not to send us, sensitive personal information, such as health information or identity documents, through our forms.

How we use your information, and our legal bases

  • To respond to your enquiry, and to scope and propose a pilot, licence or service you ask about: this is a step you ask us to take before entering into a contract, and our legitimate interest in answering enquiries about our business.
  • To send you a confirmation of your request and to follow it up: the same bases.
  • To prioritise enquiries. We apply fixed rules to the details you give us (for example sector, timeline and type of request) to decide the order in which we respond. This only affects how quickly we reply; it does not produce any legal or similarly significant effect on you, and a person reviews every enquiry.
  • To send you our newsletter, only after you have subscribed and confirmed your subscription: your consent, which you can withdraw at any time with the unsubscribe link in every newsletter or by emailing privacy@slastech.com.
  • To keep the site and our systems secure, to prevent spam and abuse, and to limit repeated submissions: our legitimate interest in protecting our services.
  • To understand how the site is used and improve it, through analytics: your consent, which you can withdraw at any time.
  • To comply with the law, respond to lawful requests from authorities, and establish or defend legal claims: our legal obligations and our legitimate interests.

The laws that apply

For information that Slas Technologies Limited is responsible for, we comply with the Nigeria Data Protection Act 2023 and the rules made under it. The legal bases described above are those the Act recognises: consent, steps taken at your request before a contract, compliance with a legal obligation, and legitimate interests.

For information that Slas Technologies Inc. is responsible for, we comply with Canada's Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA) and any provincial privacy law that applies. Our newsletter also complies with Canada's Anti-Spam Legislation (CASL).

Where the EU or UK General Data Protection Regulation applies to our handling of your information, we rely on the legal bases described above and you have the rights that regulation gives you.

Who we share it with

Slas Technologies Inc. and Slas Technologies Limited share enquiry information with each other where needed to respond to you or to deliver what you ask for.

We also use service providers that process information on our behalf, under contracts that allow them to use it only to provide their service to us and require them to protect it:

  • Vercel: hosts and delivers the website.
  • Google Cloud: runs the service that receives form submissions, and stores enquiries and newsletter subscriptions in a database in Belgium.
  • Twilio SendGrid: sends confirmation and internal notification emails about your enquiry and our newsletter.
  • Microsoft: hosts our email, including the notification emails we receive about enquiries.
  • HubSpot: our customer-relationship-management system, where we keep track of enquiries and conversations, when it is in use.
  • PostHog: website analytics, only if you accept analytics.

Disclosure and sale

We may disclose information where the law requires it, to respond to a lawful request from a public authority, to protect the rights, property or safety of Slas, our users or others, or as part of a merger, acquisition or sale of assets, in which case the recipient must protect it as this policy describes.

We do not sell your personal information, and we do not share it with third parties for their own marketing.

International transfers

Our service providers process information in several countries. Enquiries and newsletter subscriptions are stored in Belgium; email, website delivery, customer-relationship management and analytics may involve processing in the United States, Canada, the European Union and other countries where those providers operate.

When Slas Technologies Limited transfers personal information out of Nigeria, it does so only on a basis the Nigeria Data Protection Act 2023 permits, such as appropriate safeguards in our contracts with service providers, or where the transfer is needed to respond to your request. When Slas Technologies Inc. transfers information outside Canada, it remains accountable for it and uses contracts to require a comparable level of protection. Information held in another country may be accessible to that country's courts and authorities under its laws.

How long we keep it

  • Enquiries that do not lead to a customer relationship: up to 24 months after our last contact with you, then deleted.
  • Enquiries that lead to a proposal or contract: for as long as the relationship lasts, and afterwards for as long as the law requires us to keep business and tax records.
  • Email copies of enquiries: the notification email we receive when you submit a form is deleted one year after we receive it. Emails you send us directly are kept and deleted on the same basis as the enquiries above.
  • Newsletter: while you are subscribed. If you do not confirm a sign-up, we delete it after 30 days. When you unsubscribe, we delete your email address and keep only a one-way coded version of it, so that we do not email you again.
  • Short-lived security records used to stop repeated or abusive submissions: from a few minutes up to 24 hours.
  • Server and security logs: for a limited period, and only as long as needed to keep our services secure and to investigate incidents.
  • Analytics data: for as long as our analytics provider keeps it under our account settings, after which it is deleted.
  • Backups. Our database is backed up automatically so that we can recover from a failure. When we delete your information, it can remain in those encrypted backups for up to 8 days, until the backups expire. We do not restore deleted information from backups except to recover from an incident, and if we ever do, we delete it again.

Cookies and analytics

The website itself works without cookies. The first time you visit, we ask whether you accept analytics. Your choice is stored for six months in a cookie called slas_analytics_consent, so that we do not ask again on every visit.

If you accept, PostHog sets its own cookie and browser storage to recognise your visits, and records your use of the site. If you decline or ignore the question, PostHog collects nothing.

To change your choice, clear the cookies for slastech.com in your browser; we will ask you again on your next visit. You can also block cookies in your browser settings.

How we protect it

Information is encrypted in transit between your browser and our services, and between our services. Access to enquiry data is limited to the people who need it to respond, and our systems use access controls, secret management and monitoring. See our Security page for more. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

If a breach of security affects your personal information, we will notify you and the relevant regulator where the law requires it.

Your rights

Depending on the law that applies, you may have the right to be told whether we hold information about you and to get a copy of it; to have it corrected or completed; to have it deleted; to restrict or object to how we use it; to receive information you gave us in a portable form; to withdraw consent you have given, without affecting what we did before; and not to be subject to a decision based solely on automated processing that has legal or similarly significant effects on you.

To exercise any of these rights, email privacy@slastech.com. We may need to confirm your identity before we act. We respond within the time the applicable law sets, and in any case within 30 days.

To stop receiving our newsletter, use the unsubscribe link in any newsletter, which takes effect immediately, or email privacy@slastech.com, and we will act on it within two business days.

You also have the right to complain to a privacy regulator: in Nigeria, the Nigeria Data Protection Commission; in Canada, the Office of the Privacy Commissioner of Canada; in the European Union or United Kingdom, your local data-protection authority. We would welcome the chance to address your concern first.

Children's privacy

The website is for businesses and institutions and is not directed to children. We do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 18. If you believe a child has sent us information, contact us and we will delete it.

Changes to this policy

We may update this policy as our services or the law change. The “last updated” date above shows the current version. If we make a material change, we will say so on the website before it takes effect.
