[kictanet] IEBC 2017 REGISTER OF VOTERS - data protection/privacy law

[Walubengo J]

I have been reliably informed that Kenya actually has a law on data protection. The super-law, the Constitution of Kenya says in article 31 as follows:
>>>>> 

31. Every person has the right to privacy, which includes the right not to have—(a) their person, home or property searched;(b) their possessions seized;(c) information relating to their family or private affairs unnecessarily required or revealed; or(d) the privacy of their communications infringed.    

>>>
I therefore rephrase my earlier statement to claimed that we do not have a law, and say theat we do not have an "Act" on Data Protection/Privacy.
Maybe IEBC can use the provisions in article 31 in the meantime.
walu.

True that Tony.
But here is the news - Kenya has NO data protection law or policy.
So anything flows and goes.

On the other hand, I do not want **anyone** listing my name and ID
number for anyone to scrape and mis-use.

Revealing personal information is **not** 'transparency' - it's a
breach of data privacy!

Cheers,
Tony
