Privacy Policy
Edwin Kiptoo Ngetich, its subsidiaries, and affiliates (collectively, "Build Your Wealth and Potential," the "Company," "We," or "Us") thank you for visiting the online and mobile resources we publish. We use the words "you" and "your" to mean you, the reader, and other visitors to our online and mobile resources who are, in all cases, over the age of 18. Our privacy policy ("this policy," "this privacy policy," and "our policy") informs you about the types of personal information we collect, how we use it, who we share it with and why, and what we do to try to protect it.
Online and mobile resources mean the websites and other internet features we own that allow you to interact with our websites, as well as apps we've created and distributed to let our customers and followers view our online and mobile resources or otherwise interact with the content we provide.
WHO WE COLLECT PERSONAL INFORMATION FROM
We may collect personal information from the following groups of data subjects: visitors to, and users of, our online and mobile resources; our customers; current members of our workforce and those who apply for posted jobs; and third-party vendors and business partners. Personal information generally means information that can be used to identify you or that can be easily linked to you (for example, your name, address, telephone number, email address, national identification number, and date of birth). The privacy laws in some jurisdictions include unique elements in what they consider to be the personal information of the consumers or data subjects they protect. If those laws apply to us, as in the case of the Kenya Data Protection Act, 2019 (No. 24 of 2019), our use of the phrase "personal information" includes the unique elements required by such laws.
The categories of information we collect from each of these groups, and the ways in which we use it, differs. As you may have noticed, it's possible that the same person could fall into more than one group. Most of this policy addresses our processing and sharing of personal information collected from visitors to and users of our online and mobile resources and our customers.
Nonetheless, we collect and retain the types of professional or employment-related personal information you would expect an employer to have about its existing and former workforce and new job applicants. We provide legally required notices of collection and describe our use and sharing of the personal information of our workforce and applicants in greater detail in confidential internal human resource manuals and documents accessible to members of our workforce, or by publication on the proprietary workforce/applicant portals and apps we operate. In some cases, such portals and apps may be operated by third parties who transfer the personal information to us. In those situations, the legal responsibility to provide notice usually rests with the third party, not us.
In addition, like all corporate enterprises, we buy goods and services, lease equipment and office space and attend industry events. In doing so, we interact with many existing and potential vendors and business partners from whom we necessarily collect certain personal information in connection with our contractual and business relationships. As with our customers, this information is typically limited to minimum business contact information. We use and share personal information collected from our vendors and business partners to manage, administer and perform under our contracts with them, or share information about our products. We describe our use of vendor and business partner personal information in greater detail in our confidential contracts with those parties or on the internal vendor management portals we operate.
REGISTRATION WITH THE OFFICE OF THE DATA PROTECTION COMMISSIONER (ODPC)
In compliance with the Kenya Data Protection Act, 2019, Build Your Wealth and Potential is registered as a Data Controller with the Office of the Data Protection Commissioner (ODPC) . All entities handling personal information of individuals residing in Kenya are required to register as Data Controllers or Processors. Our registration status reflects our commitment to protecting the privacy and security of your personal data in accordance with Kenyan law.
WHAT WE COLLECT
There are two types of information that we obtain from you online and then store and use: (i) non-personal information that's collected automatically from each visitor, such as your device operating system; and (ii) personal information that you voluntarily provide to us or that is collected automatically.
By using our online and mobile resources or purchasing our products or services, you are signifying to us that you agree with this section of our privacy policy and that we may use and disclose your information as described.
Voluntarily Submitted Information
If you participate in certain activities via our online and mobile resources, you may be asked to provide us with information about yourself. The types of personal information we collect in those situations includes **identifiers** (such as your name, email address, physical address, and phone number), **professional information** (such as the business you are in), and **financial account information** (such as your credit card information). We do not sell, rent, or trade voluntarily submitted personal information with third parties.
If you don't want us to collect this type of personal information, please don't provide it. This means you shouldn't participate in the activities on our online and mobile resources that request or require it and you may want to communicate with us by phone or regular mail instead. Participation is strictly your choice. Not participating may limit your ability to take full advantage of the online and mobile resources, but it will not affect your ability to access certain information available to the general public on the online and mobile resources.
Some of the ways you voluntarily give us your personal information and how we use it:
Emails and Online Forms – When you send us an email or fill out an online form, such as to contact us, your email address and any other personal information (e.g., home address or phone number) that may be in the content of your message or attached to it, are retained by us and used to respond back directly to you and to process your request. Depending on the personal information provided, communications from us may be in the form of emails, telephone calls, and/or text messages. We may also send you information about any of our products or services we think may be of interest to you.
Registering for an Account – When you register for an account, you submit personal information to us such as your name and email address which we then retain. We use that information to create and manage your account and, in some cases, establish a password and profile to communicate with you via email.
Registering for Events – When you register for services, webinars, events, conferences, or programs we ourselves may host (rather than outsource to a third-party event manager with its own privacy policies), you will be submitting the types of identifiers described above. If the event requires a fee, we may also ask you to submit credit card or other financial information. We use this information to register you for the event and send you communications regarding the event.
Becoming a Subscriber to Our Service – We use any information provided from our customers to perform our contractual obligations and provide the products and services purchased to them, to manage their accounts and communicate with them.
**Social Media and Community Features** – Some of our online and mobile resources may offer social media-like community features letting users post messages and comments, and/or upload an image or other files and materials. If you choose to make use of these features, the information you post, including your screen name and any other personal information, will be in the public domain and not covered/protected by this policy.
### Automatically Collected Information
When you visit our online and mobile resources, basic information is passively collected through your web browser via use of tracking technologies, such as a "cookie" which is a small text file that is downloaded onto your computer or mobile device when you access the online and mobile resources. It allows us to recognize your computer or mobile device and store some information about your preferences or past actions.
We allow third party vendors to use cookies or similar technologies to collect information about your browsing activities over time following your use of the site. For example, we use Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google, Inc. ("Google"). Google Analytics uses cookies to help us analyze how you use the online and mobile resources and enhance your experience when you visit the online and mobile resources. For more information on how Google uses this data, go to **www.google.com/policies/privacy/partners/**. You can learn more about how to opt out of Google Analytics by going to **https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout**.
The internet activity information collected through cookies and other similar means includes such things as: the domain name and IP address from which you accessed our online and mobile resources; the type of browser and operating system you use; the date and time and length of your visit; the specific page visited, graphics viewed and any documents downloaded; the specific links to other sites you accessed from our online and mobile resources; and the specific links from other sites you used to access our online and mobile resources. Additionally, if you access our online and mobile resources from a phone or other mobile device, the mobile services provider may transmit to us uniquely identifiable mobile device information which allows us to then collect mobile phone numbers and associate them with the mobile device identification information. Some mobile phone vendors also operate systems that pinpoint the physical location of devices and we may receive this information as well if location services are enabled on your device. If you do not want us to collect and use geolocation data, disable location services through your device settings.
Regardless, we use both automatically collected information and mobile device information to compile generic reports about popular pages on our online and mobile resources and to see how our customers and followers are accessing our online and mobile resources. We then use that data to administer the online and mobile resources and make them better, make your activities more convenient and efficient and to enhance the functionality of our online and mobile resources, such as by remembering certain of your information in order to save you time.
We use and retain your personal information in accordance with applicable law and as long as necessary to carry out the purposes described above in accordance with our internal data retention procedures.
LAWFUL BASIS FOR PROCESSING
Under the **Kenya Data Protection Act, 2019**, we process your personal data only where we have a lawful basis to do so. The lawful bases we rely on include:
1. **Consent**: Where you have given us clear consent to process your personal data for a specific purpose.
2. **Contract**: Where processing is necessary for the performance of a contract to which you are a party.
3. **Legal Obligation**: Where processing is necessary for compliance with a legal obligation to which we are subject.
4. **Legitimate Interests**: Where processing is necessary for the purposes of our legitimate interests, except where such interests are overridden by your interests or fundamental rights and freedoms.
We do not process your personal data for purposes incompatible with those for which it was collected without obtaining your fresh consent.
USER BEWARE: EXTERNAL SITES, APPS, LINKS AND SOCIAL MEDIA
We maintain a presence on one or more external social media platforms such as Twitter, Facebook, YouTube and LinkedIn. We may further allow features of our online and mobile resources to connect with, or be viewable from, that external social media presence. Similarly, our online and mobile resources may contain links to other websites or apps controlled by third parties.
We are not responsible for either the content on, or the privacy practices of, social media platforms, or any third-party sites or apps to which we link. Those apps, sites and platforms are not controlled by us and therefore have their own privacy policies and terms of use. If you have questions about how those apps, sites and platforms collect and use personal information, you should carefully read their privacy policies and contact them using the information they provide.
WHEN/WITH WHOM DO WE SHARE PERSONAL INFORMATION
We use non-personal information to administer our online and mobile resources, make them better, and to make business decisions about what programs our customers might like. We use voluntarily provided personal information to respond to your inquiries and provide you with the services you have requested, amongst other uses as further described below. We do not sell or rent your personal information to third party data vendors or marketing companies. As you might expect, we disclose your information when required by law.
Affiliates
Your information will not be shared with any third parties for marketing and promotional purposes without your explicit consent.
Legally Compelled Disclosures
We may disclose your information, including personal information, to government authorities, and to other third parties when compelled to do so by such government authorities, or at our discretion or otherwise as required or permitted by law, including but not limited to responding to court orders and subpoenas.
To Prevent Harm
We may disclose your information, including personal information, when we have reason to believe that someone is causing injury to or interference with our rights or property, other users of the online and mobile resources, or anyone else that could be harmed by such activities.
Business Transfer
If we or any of our affiliates, or substantially all of its or their assets, are acquired by one or more third parties as a result of an acquisition, merger, sale, reorganization, consolidation, or liquidation, personal information may be one of the transferred assets.
CROSS-BORDER DATA TRANSFERS
Under the **Kenya Data Protection Act, 2019**, personal data may only be transferred outside Kenya with appropriate safeguards in place. Where we transfer your personal data to a country outside Kenya, we ensure that:
1. The transfer is necessary and we have obtained your consent where required;
2. Appropriate safeguards are in place to protect your personal data; and
3. The recipient country provides an adequate level of data protection, or we have put in place binding corporate rules or other approved mechanisms.
If you have any questions about cross-border data transfers, please contact us using the details provided below.
YOUR RIGHTS AND OPTIONS

Under the **Kenya Data Protection Act, 2019**, you have the following rights with respect to your personal data:
1. Right to be Informed: You have the right to be informed of the use of your data, including what personal data is collected about you, why, who is collecting it, how long it will be kept, how you can file a complaint, and with whom it will be shared.

If you wish to exercise any of these rights, please contact us using the contact details below. We may ask you to verify your identity before responding to your request to ensure that your personal data is disclosed only to you.
If we are using personal information you provided to us in order to enable us to send you materials, such as newsletters or product alerts via text or email, and you decide you don't want to receive such materials, you may opt-out by following the opt-out instructions in the email or other communication (e.g., by responding to the text with "STOP"), or by contacting us using the contact information below. When we receive your request, we will take reasonable steps to remove your name from our distribution lists. You need to understand it may take a period to remove your name from our lists after your request and due to such latency, you may still receive materials for a period of time after you opt-out.
Some browsers have a "do not track" feature that lets you tell websites that you do not want to have your online activities tracked. At this time, we do not specifically respond to browser "do not track" signals.
CHILDREN'S PRIVACY
The **Kenya Data Protection Act, 2019** imposes special restrictions and obligations on entities that collect and use information from minors. We take those age-related requirements very seriously, and consistent with it, do not intend for our online and mobile resources to be used by children under the age of 18 without first obtaining the verifiable consent of such child's parent or legal guardian. Moreover, we do not knowingly collect personal information from minors under the age of 18. Only a parent or legal guardian may provide such information after adhering to our verification process for submitting such information via the online and mobile resources. If we become aware that anyone under the age of 18 has submitted personal information to our online and mobile resources, we will delete that information and will not use it for any purpose whatsoever. If you believe that someone under the age of 18 has submitted personal information to our online and mobile resources, please contact us at nekleverfinconsultant@buildyourwealthandpotential.com.
We encourage parents and legal guardians to talk with their children about the potential risks of providing personal information over the Internet.
HOW WE PROTECT COLLECTED PERSONAL INFORMATION
We will take all reasonable security precautions to protect your personal information provided to our online and mobile resources. We have adopted a security program that includes technical, organizational, administrative, and other security measures designed to protect, in a manner consistent with accepted industry standards and applicable law, against anticipated or actual threats to the security of personal information (the "Security Program"). We cannot, however, guarantee that your information, whether during transmission or while stored on our systems or otherwise in our care, will be free from unauthorized access or that loss, misuse, destruction, or alteration will not occur. Except for our duty to maintain the Security Program under applicable law, we disclaim any other liability for any such theft or loss of, unauthorized access or damage to, or interception of any data or communications including personal information. We have every reason to believe our Security Program is reasonable and appropriate for our business and the nature of foreseeable risks to the personal information we collect. We further periodically review and update our Security Program, including as required by applicable law.
Nonetheless, as part of our Security Program, we have specific incident response and management procedures that are activated whenever we become aware that your personal information was likely to have been compromised. We further require, as part of our vendor and business partner oversight procedures, that such parties notify us immediately if they have any reason to believe that an incident adversely affecting personal information we provided to them has occurred.
DATA RETENTION
We retain your personal data only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes for which it was collected, including for the purposes of satisfying any legal, accounting, or reporting requirements. When we no longer need your personal data, we securely delete or destroy it in accordance with our data retention procedures.
