Privacy Policy

MyLink (https://mylink.ng) is owned and operated by Helpblogger Digital ("we", "us", "our").

This policy explains what personal information we collect, how we use it, and your choices. We aim to follow the Nigeria Data Protection Act 2023 (NDPA) and other applicable laws.

By using MyLink, you agree to this policy.

1. Information we collect

Information you give us

  • Account details: username, email address, and password. We store passwords in a protected (hashed) form, never as plain text.
  • Sign in with Google: if you choose this option, we receive your name, email address, profile picture, and Google account ID.
  • Your content: posts, descriptions, images, links, forms and design settings that you create.
  • Messages to us: anything you send when you contact support.

Information collected automatically

  • Usage data: page views, button clicks and likes on posts.
  • Technical data: IP address, browser and device type, and the time of each visit.
  • Security data: sign-in activity and security events, including IP address and browser details.

Payment information

Payments are processed by Paystack. We do not see or store your card number or bank login details.

We keep a record of each payment: the reference, amount, currency, plan, status and date.


Responses collected through forms

If you answer a questionnaire or form created by another MyLink user, your answers are collected for that user. See section 6 for details.

2. How we use your information

We use your information to:


  • Create and manage your account.
  • Host and display your posts and forms
  • Show creators their analytics, such as views, clicks and devices.
  • Process payments and activate your plan
  • Send important emails, such as verification, password reset, and account notices.
  • Protect MyLink from spam, fraud and abuse.
  • Fix problems and improve the service.
  • Meet our legal obligations.

Our legal bases include performing our contract with you, our legitimate interests in running a safe service, your consent where required, and compliance with the law.

3. Cookies and similar technologies

We use a small number of cookies:


  • Essential cookies: keep you signed in and protect forms from misuse. MyLink cannot work properly without them.
  • Analytics and advertising cookies: if we enable services such as Google Analytics or advertising partners, they may set their own cookies. These providers have their own privacy policies.

You can control cookies in your browser settings. Blocking essential cookies may stop you from signing in.

4. Who we share information with

We do not sell your personal information.

We share it only when needed, with:


  • Paystack, to process payments
  • Google, if you use Sign in with Google or if analytics is enabled
  • Email and hosting providers, who help us deliver and run the service
  • Advertising partners, if ads are shown on the site
  • Authorities, where the law requires it or to protect rights and safety

These providers may only use your information to provide their services to us.

5. International transfers

Some of our service providers may process data outside Nigeria. Where this happens, we take reasonable steps to make sure your information stays protected.

6. Information collected through forms

MyLink lets users create questionnaires and forms.


  • The creator of a form decides what questions to ask and is responsible for how they use the answers.
  • Helpblogger Digital provides the tools and stores the responses on the creator's behalf.
  • If you have a question about your answers, please contact the creator of the form first.

Creators must not use MyLink to collect passwords, card numbers, or other sensitive information. See our Terms of Service.

7. How long we keep information

We keep your information for as long as your account is active, or as long as needed to provide the service.

We may keep some records for longer where the law requires it, for example, payment records, or where needed to resolve disputes and prevent abuse.

When you delete your account, we remove or anonymize your personal information unless we are required to keep it.

8. Security

We protect your information with measures that include:


  • Hashed passwords
  • Encrypted storage of sensitive settings
  • Access controls and security monitoring

No online service is completely secure. Please use a strong, unique password and keep it private.

9. Your rights

Under the NDPA, you have the right to:


  • Ask for a copy of your personal information.
  • Ask us to correct information that is wrong.
  • Ask us to delete your information.
  • Object to or restrict certain uses of your information
  • Withdraw your consent at any time, where we rely on consent.
