Your privacy is a top priority at DIYLens. Whether we're building new features or improving the ones you use every day, we design them with your privacy in mind.
We work to keep strong protections in place and give you tools to control your information and who sees what you share. We handle personal data in line with the Nigeria Data Protection Act 2023. Please see our Privacy Policy for the full details.

Data controls ↗Your account details, the posts, DIYs, stories, comments and messages you create, the snaps and questions you send to DIYLens AI, and your listings and job posts.
How you use DIYLens (what you watch, like and search for), device and connection details, and your approximate location from your settings or IP address.
To run DIYLens and keep it safe, answer your questions, recommend posts and people, show relevant promoted posts and ads, and process payments to DIYLens.
Only service providers we need to run DIYLens — for payments, hosting, AI answers, notifications and analytics — and authorities when the law requires. We don't sell your personal data.
Sponsored cards are matched to the DIYLens module you're using — never to the photo you snapped, your exact location or sensitive personal data — and they never appear on Health, Money or Legal snaps.
Creators can promote their own posts. Promoted posts are labelled “Promoted” and shown to the audience the creator picks. Creators only see totals and percentage breakdowns — never who you are.
You can turn off ad personalization in Ad settings. Read the Advertising Policy.
