This Privacy Policy explains how the official website of Everlyne Koiyan collects, uses, stores, and protects personal information provided by visitors and users of the website.
The website serves as a platform for sharing information about Everlyne Koiyan, her public activities, leadership vision, community engagement, and her campaign for the Governorship of Narok County in the 2027 General Election.
We are committed to respecting your privacy and handling personal information responsibly and in accordance with applicable Kenyan data protection laws, including the Data Protection Act, 2019 and applicable regulations.

- Fulfil other legitimate purposes that are communicated to you when your information is collected.
We will not use your personal information for purposes that are incompatible with the purpose for which it was collected without an appropriate lawful basis.
4. Political and Campaign-Related Information
Because this website supports a political campaign, some interactions may involve campaign participation, volunteering, event attendance, or expressions of political support.
We will handle such information in accordance with applicable data protection and electoral requirements. Where information constitutes sensitive personal data or political information requiring additional safeguards, appropriate legal requirements will be observed.
We will not require you to disclose political views or affiliations merely to browse the website.
5. Sharing of Personal Information
We do not sell your personal information.
Personal information may be shared with authorised service providers where reasonably necessary to operate the website or provide requested services. Such providers may include website hosting, email, communication, security, analytics, form-processing, or other technology providers.
Information may also be disclosed where required or permitted by law, court order, regulatory requirement, or lawful government request.
Where third-party service providers process personal information on our behalf, appropriate measures will be taken to protect that information.
6. Cookies and Website Analytics
The website may use cookies and similar technologies to provide essential functionality, remember preferences, understand website usage, improve performance, and maintain security.
Where non-essential cookies or analytics technologies require consent under applicable law, appropriate consent mechanisms will be provided.
You may also be able to control cookies through your browser settings. Disabling certain cookies may affect some website functionality.
7. Data Security
We take reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect personal information against unauthorised access, loss, misuse, alteration, disclosure, or destruction.
However, no internet-based system can be guaranteed to be completely secure. Visitors should therefore avoid submitting highly confidential information through ordinary website forms unless specifically requested and appropriate safeguards are provided.
8. Data Retention
We retain personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purpose for which it was collected, to provide requested services, to fulfil legal or regulatory obligations, resolve disputes, maintain records, or protect legitimate interests.
When personal information is no longer required, appropriate steps will be taken to delete, anonymise, or securely dispose of it, subject to applicable legal requirements.
9. Your Data Protection Rights
Subject to applicable law, you may have the right to:
- Be informed about how your personal information is being used.

- Request correction of inaccurate or misleading information.

- Object to certain forms of processing.

Where personal information is transferred outside Kenya, appropriate safeguards and applicable requirements under Kenyan data protection law will be considered and applied.
