WHAT ARE THE DIFFERENT STAGES YOUR DATA MAY GO THROUGH?

When you are approached by someone who wants any personal information about you, your Data privacy and protection journey begins; First you are entitled to choose whether to share or keep your personal data. After giving this permission to someone, you are at the first stage of your journey.

A. COLLECTION.

This happens when someone asks and receives personal information about you. For example, if a person who is collecting information about salaries of people in your village comes to you and ask for where you work and how much you earn, then you give this information out, then that person will have collected your personal data. This is the first stage, and this person is called a Data collector.

Storage (who keeps this - controller)

B. DATA CONTROLLER

Once you have given your data to someone, that person decides what, and how to handle and deal with your data. This includes decisions such as how long to keep it, what to do with it, and how to handle it for the purpose they gave you. This person who does this is called a Data Controller. For example, when a doctor asks for blood samples and information about your family health history, it is because they have a purpose in mind. The doctor then decides how they want to use this information and your samples to get to that result. This makes the doctor a data controller. Once you’ve given your data to an organization or individual, they decide how to handle and deal with your data.

C. PROCESSING

Sometimes the person who collects your personal data is not the same person who analyses it or organizes it. For example, if a company may send interns to collect personal information about people so that it can start selling in that area. When it gets this information, it gives it to another company to put it together and keep it for them. This process is what we call processing. This company or person receives that information for one of the reasons we have talked about and is called a Data Processor.

UGANDA ELECTORAL COMMISSION TO ELIMINATE NATIONAL IDENTIFICATION CARDS (IDs) FOR 2021 GENERAL ELECTIONS.

The elimination of using National IDs (Ndagamuntu) for the 2021 elections should not have come as a surprise. One would be very NAIVE to think that Bobi Wine has not prepared for this in his Business Plan under the RISK section. It is public knowledge that our EC is not independent. It is also public knowledge that Military Dictator Yoweri Museveni will never lose an election. What stunned us this morning is when we noticed that on social media, people were mocking Bobi with his "get your Ndagamuntu". We are on record for saying to all Our readers that the National ID is like Apartheid in South Africa. Students of History would know how those IDs were being used to arrest people, deny them jobs, deny them basic services. Consequently, Bobi was not wrong and will never be wrong on the Ndagamuntu. Except the ones attacking him and mocking him forget that in Uganda, now, no National ID (Ndagamuntu), no service. If you have not been denied registering your child i...

Here is Why Our Utterances For Praying Jesus And God To Come Liberate Ugandans, May Be Misplaced. This Phrase is like inform of a Letter To Some Categorized Section Of Ugandans.

https://m.facebook.com/yusufosuta/photos/a.1896701010557789/2070383359856219/?type=3 OPEN LETTER TO NRM SUPPORTERS - NATIONAL ROBBERS MOVEMENT. .................................................................................. Last week of March, a friend told me to pray for Uganda. I told him that he was an Idiot and we have prayed for too long and we are still hungry and sick and Jesus is not coming soon to liberate us. He then ignored the STUPID and sent me a picture we all now know. It got me totally messed up. This guy was telling me to pray then sends a picture of men bowing down in blood. He might have meant guns but I blocked him because his utterances of praying for Uganda were misplaced. I unblocked him 3 weeks later and asked him about praying and assassinations. His reply "eithrr prayers or guns or both". I hate violence with a passion. So he is now blocked in like FOREVER. Do you feel safe? Do not feel safe. Uganda regim...

Parliament Urges Government to Provide Shs 4 Billion to Media Houses to Run Awareness Campaign on Tourism in Uganda.

Parliament also urged Gov’t to provide additional Shs4Bn to UTB to engage international and national media houses in production of positive media stories for improved destination image, following reports of drop in number of tourists from US, Europe and China visiting Uganda. "The National Development Plan targeted to cumulatively attract 281,760 International Tourist arrivals from US, Europe & China but only 67,252 arrivals were registered by the end of the first half of FY 2023/24. The U.S, Europe & China were key target source for leisure tourist who stay longer than business tourists. However, statistics show that international arrivals from the aforementioned areas have continue to drop. The UTB requires Shs4Bn to engage international & national media houses in production of positive tourism stories to improve destination perception in light of recent controversies that shade the destination in a bad light. However, this has remained unfunded,” said La...
