We collect only the information needed to respond to enquiries, operate accounts and orders, and improve this platform.
Orders and payment data
When commerce is enabled, the platform keeps an order record, product or course snapshot, payment status and provider reference so that access, support and reconciliation can work. Payment-card details are handled by the configured payment provider rather than stored as plain card data by this site.
Cookies and sessions
The application uses essential cookies and sessions for authentication, security, form protection and remembering the state of a request. If optional analytics or marketing tools are added later, this policy should be updated before they are used.
Newsletter subscriptions
If you subscribe to the Mwanafunzi Investor newsletter, we store your email address, subscription source and lifecycle timestamps so that we can send the requested updates and honour confirmations or unsubscribes. Double opt-in is enabled by default. Newsletter consent is separate from cookie consent, and accepting cookies never subscribes you to email updates.
You can unsubscribe at any time using the link in a newsletter message.
How information is used and shared
Information is used to provide the requested platform function, respond to support, process orders, protect the site and improve the clarity of the service. Access is limited to people or providers who need it for those purposes, including configured payment or email services. We do not sell contact information.
Retention and security
Records are kept for as long as they are needed for the purpose they were collected, account administration, support, financial reconciliation or a legitimate security need. The platform uses authentication, validation, access controls and private download routes, but no internet service can promise perfect security.
Your questions and requests
You can contact the desk to ask what information is associated with your account or submission, request a correction, or ask a question about how information is handled. We will review the request in the context of the service and applicable requirements.
Your privacy questions and rights
Depending on the applicable law and the context of a request, you may ask for access to, correction of or information about personal data associated with your account or submission, withdraw consent where processing relies on consent, or object to direct marketing. We may need to verify identity and assess the request against applicable retention or legal requirements. You can contact the Mwanafunzi Investor desk with a privacy request or complaint.
Retention by data category
Account and access records are retained while an account or entitlement is needed. Order, payment and receipt records may need to remain available for reconciliation, support and applicable accounting requirements. Newsletter records are retained while needed to honour subscription, confirmation and unsubscribe choices. Contact messages and comments are retained for support, moderation and security as needed. Exact retention periods are a business and legal decision and should be confirmed before production launch.
Service providers and international processing
Configured email, payment, hosting and abuse-prevention providers may process information outside the user's country. The provider inventory and deployment configuration must be reviewed whenever an integration changes. Cross-border transfer safeguards and any registration or notification requirements are subject to jurisdiction-specific legal review.
