Such information will be used for legitimate party administration, membership management, authorised communication and other lawful purposes.
NRM will not publish personal membership records or disclose sensitive information to unauthorised individuals.
5. Membership Registers and Authorised Access
The NRM Constitution provides for membership registration and the maintenance of registers across the party's organisational structure.
Accordingly, authorised officials at the polling unit, ward, LGA, state and national levels may require access to relevant membership information to perform their official responsibilities.
Access to digital records will be managed according to assigned roles and permissions. Members may access their own dashboards, while access to other members' records is restricted to authorised personnel.
Officials with access to personal information are expected to use it only for legitimate party purposes and protect its confidentiality.

NRM may use members' names, photographs, membership numbers and other approved information to produce membership cards.
The information displayed on membership cards will be determined by the party's approved requirements and governing procedures.
Members are responsible for providing accurate information and updating their profiles when necessary.
Membership cards must not be reproduced, altered or used fraudulently.
7. Payments and Donations
NRM may use authorised payment service providers to process membership fees, renewals and donations.
Payment providers may collect and process transaction information under their own privacy policies and security procedures.
NRM may retain payment references and transaction records for accounting, verification, reporting, auditing and lawful administrative purposes.

The website may use cookies and similar technologies to maintain login sessions, support website functionality, remember relevant preferences, improve security and understand website usage.

Members are responsible for protecting their login credentials and promptly reporting suspected unauthorised account access.
Although reasonable precautions are taken, no internet-based system can guarantee absolute security.

The NRM website may contain links to external websites, social media platforms, YouTube videos and payment services.
These third parties operate under their own privacy policies. NRM is not responsible for their independent privacy practices.
