Persetujuan dan hukum privasi di Kenya

Kenya's Data Protection Act of 2019 is closely modelled on the GDPR and enforced by the Office of the Data Protection Commissioner, an active regulator in the region. A distinctive feature is a mandatory registration regime under which many data controllers and processors must register with the ODPC, with thresholds set by regulation. The ODPC has issued enforcement decisions and fines, including in the digital lending sector over misuse of contacts and consent. Consent must be express, informed, and freely given, and the Act provides GDPR-style rights and breach notification. Notices in English are common. Cookies that identify users are personal data under the Act.
