For NDPA 2023 and GAID 2025

NDPA compliance, held as one live record.

Estreat keeps your processing records, impact assessments, rights requests, breach response and evidence together, and prepares your annual Compliance Audit Return from them.

Estreat overview for a demonstration company: 14 of 14 register topics have related records, 17 of 40 Schedule 2 questions are answered, and a work queue lists the next required records.

The record

What you hold, why, and who it goes to.

The clock

Requests and breaches, tracked to their deadlines.

The return

Your annual audit return, prepared from the record.

The annual audit return should not be a project. Keep the record all year and the return comes out of it.

What it does

Three duties. One record.

Processing records · Impact assessments · Vendors

What do you hold, and on what basis?

Each activity carries its purpose, lawful basis, retention and safeguards. High-risk ones are flagged for an impact assessment as you save them.

Processing records

The clock

Rights requests · Breach response

Can you answer a request, or a breach, in time?

Every request shows the days left. Every breach starts its 72-hour clock, with the duties to assess listed beside it.

Will the annual return be ready before March?

The clock, as your team sees it.

Each request shows its due date and the days left. A breach starts its 72-hour clock when you record awareness.

Rights and breach response
Rights and Breach Center in Estreat: six data subject requests with type, date received, due date, time left, identity check and status, and a second tab for the breach log and its 72-hour clock.

Built in Lagos, for Nigerian law.

The Nigeria Data Protection Act 2023 and GAID 2025 are the baseline, not an add-on.

Questions

Who is Estreat for?

Nigerian organisations managing data protection obligations, the DPOs responsible for their programmes, and licensed DPCOs supporting audit preparation.

Can we start if we do not know our NDPC designation?

Yes. Choose “Not yet determined” in your enquiry. You can start with the readiness check and discuss the records you have. Confirm your designation and specific obligations with the Commission or a qualified adviser.

Does Estreat audit or file our return?

No. Estreat is software. The usual CAR filing route is through a licensed DPCO, except as otherwise approved by the Commission under GAID article 10(14). Estreat organises the records and evidence for that review.

What happens in the first conversation?

We look at one business process and the records you keep today, show the matching workflow, and discuss fit and pricing.
