Privacy Policy
This policy explains how Blabs (“we”, “us”) handles your personal data when you use this website. We follow Kenya’s Data Protection Act, 2019.
Who we are
Data controller: Blabs, Kenya. Contact: hello@blabs.co.ke or WhatsApp +254 755 437 567.
What we collect
- Contact form: your name, email or phone number, and your message.
- WhatsApp or phone: if you message or call us, we see your number and what you send. WhatsApp is run by Meta and has its own policy.
- Technical data: our host (Netlify) automatically logs your IP address, browser, device and the pages requested, for security and reliability.
We do not set cookies, use advertising trackers or run analytics on this site. We do not collect sensitive personal data, and we do not need you to send any.
Why we use it
- To reply to your message and discuss your project (your consent, and steps you ask us to take).
- To keep the site secure and working (our legitimate interest).
- To meet legal obligations.
Who we share it with
We do not sell your data. It is processed by service providers that run the site: Netlify (hosting and form storage, United States), Google Fonts (loads the fonts, so Google receives your IP address), and cdnjs / Cloudflare (delivers the 3D graphics library). Some of these are outside Kenya; we only use providers with appropriate safeguards. We may disclose data if the law or a court requires it.
How long we keep it
Messages are kept only as long as needed to deal with your enquiry, then deleted within 12 months unless we are working together or the law requires longer. Server logs are kept by Netlify for a limited period.
Your rights
You can ask us to give you a copy of your data, correct it, delete it, stop using it, or withdraw your consent at any time, by contacting us above. We will respond within the time the law requires. You may also complain to Kenya’s Office of the Data Protection Commissioner at odpc.go.ke.
Security
The site is served over HTTPS with security headers, and we limit who can access messages. No system is perfectly secure, so please do not send passwords or financial details through the form.
Children
This site is not aimed at children under 18, and we do not knowingly collect their data.
Changes
We may update this policy and will change the date above when we do.
