Data privacy myths continue to shape risky digital habits in Kenya.
Personal information can reveal far more than people realise, giving fraudsters material for phishing, identity theft and targeted manipulation. #DataPrivacyKE #DigitalSafety

Privacy policies matter only if they're understandable. Customers should know what data is collected, why it's needed, who can access it and how long it's kept. Transparency is part of security, not separate from it. #DataPrivacyKE #DigitalSafety
We unpack meaningful consent, transparency, governance under Kenya's Data Protection Act and why organisational accountability matters as much as technical controls.

Peter Ndegwa's point on shared responsibility reflects how digital trust works today.
