We do not sell, rent, or share your personal data with third parties for marketing purposes. We do not use your data for automated profiling or decision-making.

3. Cookies and Analytics

Our website does not use tracking cookies or advertising pixels. We do not currently operate a web analytics platform (such as Google Analytics) on this site.

4. Third-Party Services

Our website embeds or links to the following third-party services. Each operates under its own privacy policy:

  • WhatsApp (Meta Platforms Inc.) — clicking our WhatsApp contact button opens the WhatsApp application. Any communication initiated through WhatsApp is subject to WhatsApp's Privacy Policy. WhatsApp may collect your phone number and message metadata.
  • YouTube (Google LLC) — our "Our Story" section embeds a YouTube video. When you play this video, YouTube may set cookies and collect viewing data in accordance with Google's Privacy Policy. The video is loaded on demand (only after you click play) to minimise data sharing on page load.

5. Data Storage and Security

We do not operate a database or server that stores personal data collected through this website. Contact information shared via WhatsApp or email is retained only within those respective communication platforms and in our internal correspondence.

We take reasonable precautions to ensure your data is handled securely; however, no method of transmission over the internet is 100% secure. We encourage you to exercise caution when sharing sensitive personal information online.

6. Your Rights Under the Kenya Data Protection Act 2019

If you are located in Kenya, you have rights under the Kenya Data Protection Act, 2019 (No. 24 of 2019), which gives you the right to:
