Privacy policy
How Hikri Companion collects, uses and protects your personal information, under the Kenya Data Protection Act, 2019.
Who we are
Hikri Companion is a welfare-based organisation based at Ethan House, Kariobangi, Nairobi, Kenya. You can reach us on 0739 130 026 or info@hikricompanion.com.
We handle personal information in line with the Kenya Data Protection Act, 2019.
What we collect
- Your name, phone number and, if you give it, your email and county — when you register or contact us.
- Your national ID number, when you provide it for membership registration.
- Details of family members you want to cover.
- For the pupils plan, a child's details — provided only by a parent or legal guardian with consent.
- M-Pesa confirmation codes you send us, to match your payments.
Why we collect it
- To register you as a member and give you a membership number.
- To contact you about your plan, contributions and claims.
- To administer the benefits in your plan.
- To send occasional updates if you subscribe — you can stop these any time.
Children's data
We collect children's details only for enrolment in the pupils plan, only from a parent or legal guardian, and only the details needed to provide cover.
Who we share it with
We share your details only where needed to provide your cover — for example with the administrator or underwriter of your plan — or where the law requires it. We do not sell your information.
How we protect it
- Access to member records is limited to staff who need it.
- ID numbers and health-related details are kept out of email bodies and public folders.
- We keep your data only as long as needed for your membership and the law.
Your rights
Under the Data Protection Act you may ask to see the data we hold about you, ask us to correct or delete it, or object to how we use it. Contact us on the details above and we will respond.
Payments safety
We never ask you to send money to a personal phone number. Pay only through our official till after speaking to our office.
