Your Data Protection Rights
Last updated 8 November 2026
Under the Kenya Data Protection Act, 2019 you have the right to:
- Be informed about how your data is used.
- Access the personal data we hold about you.
- Correct inaccurate or incomplete data.
- Delete data that is no longer needed or was unlawfully processed.
- Object to processing, and withdraw consent at any time.
- Data portability – receive your data in a machine-readable format.
How to exercise your rights
If you have an account, sign in and use Account → Privacy to download your data or delete your account instantly. Otherwise email info@mwelekeo.com with the subject "Data request". We respond within the time limits set by the Act.
Because poll responses from visitors without accounts are stored only with one-way hashes, we may be unable to link a specific anonymous response back to you – this is by design to protect your privacy.
Data breaches
If a breach is likely to result in a risk to your rights we will notify the Data Commissioner within 72 hours and inform affected individuals without undue delay.
