Privacy Policy

Last updated: 1 November 2026. This policy explains what personal information we collect, why, and your rights under the Kenya Data Protection Act, 2019.

Who is responsible for your data

Instanewsbuzz Chama Loans decides how your data is used. Email us at loan@instanewsbuzz.com about anything in this policy. We reply within 3 hours.

What we collect

We also use one small session cookie to keep the form secure. We do not use advertising cookies.

Why we collect it

Who we share it with

We do not sell your data. We only share it where needed to process payments (for example our payment provider or M-Pesa), or where the law or a court requires it.

How we protect it

Your details are kept on secured servers, stored outside the public part of our website, and only the people who run the chama loans can access them.

How long we keep it

While your loan is open, we keep your record so we can manage it and remind you about repayment. Once you have fully cleared your loan, we delete your record from our system. If you ask us to delete your data earlier, contact us and we will handle it as the law allows.

Your rights

You can ask us to show you the data we hold about you, correct it, or delete it where the law allows. You can also withdraw your consent or object to how we use it. Contact us using the details above. If you are not satisfied, you may complain to the Office of the Data Protection Commissioner (ODPC) in Kenya.

Changes

If we change this policy, the new version and its date will appear on this page.
