Privacy Policy

Last updated: 22 September 2026

1. About this Privacy Policy

KAZA Technologies respects your privacy and is committed to handling personal information responsibly. This Privacy Policy explains what information we may collect, why we use it, how we protect it, how long we may keep it, and the choices available to you.

This policy applies to information collected through kazatechnologies.org, including contact and comment features, and information voluntarily provided to KAZA through communication channels connected to our services.

2. Who we are

KAZA Technologies is a Uganda-based technology and creative services initiative providing digital solutions, web and technology services, creative work, and community-focused ICT activities.

For privacy-related questions or requests, contact us at kazatechnologies@gmail.com.

3. Information we may collect

Depending on how you use the website, we may receive information such as:

• Contact information: information voluntarily submitted through contact forms, such as your name, email address, subject and message.
• Comments: information provided when submitting a comment, including your name, email address and comment content.
• Communication information: information voluntarily provided when contacting KAZA through email, WhatsApp or social-media platforms.
• Technical and security information: limited technical information used to operate, secure, troubleshoot and protect the website, including a hashed IP value where the website uses such a value for spam or abuse prevention.

Please do not submit passwords, banking PINs, card PINs, authentication codes or other highly confidential credentials through public comments or ordinary contact messages.

4. How we use your information

We may use information you provide for purposes including:

• responding to enquiries and requests;
• providing or discussing requested KAZA services;
• publishing and moderating website comments;
• preventing spam, fraud, abuse and unauthorized activity;
• maintaining, securing and improving the website;
• communicating with you about an enquiry, service or request you initiated;
• maintaining appropriate business, technical and security records; and
• complying with applicable legal or regulatory obligations.

5. Comments and public content

Comments may be reviewed or moderated before or after publication. Information that you voluntarily place in a public comment may be visible to other website visitors.

Do not publish private contact details, passwords, financial information, identification documents or other confidential information in a public comment.

KAZA may remove or decline to publish comments that are unlawful, abusive, threatening, misleading, defamatory, discriminatory, excessively promotional, or otherwise inappropriate for the website.

6. Cookies, sessions and similar technologies

The website may use essential session technologies and similar mechanisms required for functions such as authentication, security, form handling and normal website operation.

KAZA does not intend to use non-essential tracking technologies merely to collect personal information without appropriate notice and, where required, consent.

If KAZA introduces analytics, advertising, personalization or other non-essential tracking technologies, this Privacy Policy and any applicable Cookie Policy will be updated and an appropriate consent mechanism will be considered where required.

7. WhatsApp, social media and other third-party services

KAZA may provide links or communication options involving third-party services such as WhatsApp, Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, X, TikTok, YouTube and other platforms.

When you choose to communicate with KAZA through one of those platforms, information may also be processed by the relevant third-party provider under its own privacy policy and terms. KAZA does not control how an independent third-party platform processes information within its own systems.

8. Sharing of personal information

KAZA does not sell your personal information as part of its ordinary website operations.

Information may be shared with service providers or other parties where reasonably necessary to operate the website, provide a requested service, process a transaction, maintain security, comply with a legal obligation, or protect KAZA and its users. Where third parties process information on KAZA's behalf, we aim to use appropriate safeguards and only disclose information reasonably necessary for the relevant purpose.

9. Hosting and processing outside Uganda

Website infrastructure, hosting, email, communications or other service providers may process or store information in locations outside Uganda.

Where personal information is processed or stored outside Uganda, KAZA will seek to use appropriate safeguards and comply with applicable Ugandan data-protection requirements.

10. Data security

KAZA takes reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect personal information against unauthorized access, loss, misuse, alteration or disclosure.

However, no website, internet transmission or electronic storage system can be guaranteed to be completely secure. You should avoid sending highly sensitive credentials through ordinary website forms, email or public comments.

11. Data retention

KAZA aims to keep personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purpose for which it was collected, for legitimate operational or security needs, for dispute resolution, or where retention is required by law.

When information is no longer reasonably required, KAZA may delete, anonymize or securely dispose of it, subject to applicable legal, technical and security requirements.

12. Your privacy rights and requests

Depending on the circumstances and applicable law, you may have rights relating to personal information held about you, including requesting information about how your data is handled and asking for correction or deletion where applicable.

To make a privacy request, contact kazatechnologies@gmail.com. Please provide enough information for us to understand and verify your request.

Some information may need to be retained where there is a legitimate operational, security or legal reason to do so.

13. Children and minors

KAZA's website is not intended to encourage children to submit unnecessary personal information. Where personal information relating to a child is collected in circumstances requiring parental or guardian involvement, KAZA will seek to handle that information in accordance with applicable law.

14. Links to other websites

Our website may contain links to websites or services operated by other organizations. KAZA is not responsible for the privacy practices, security or content of independent third-party websites. We encourage you to review their privacy policies before providing personal information.

15. Changes to this Privacy Policy

KAZA may update this Privacy Policy when the website, services, technology, legal requirements or data-handling practices change. The latest version will be published on this page with an updated “Last updated” date.
