PRIVACY POLICY

Effective Date: April 1, 2026

Last Updated: April 2026

Welcome to KOHMMUNITY (www.kohmmunity.ng). As a disciplined, citizen-led support group dedicated to the 2027 gubernatorial candidacy of Dr. Kadri Obafemi Hamzat, we are committed to building a better Lagos. We understand that trust is the foundation of our movement. This Privacy Policy outlines how we collect, use, protect, and manage your personal information when you interact with our website, our Digital Ward Room apps, and our campaign operations.

We value your privacy as much as we value your mandate. Please read this policy carefully to understand our practices regarding your data.

1. Information We Collect

To effectively coordinate our grassroots mobilisation and digital operations, we collect information that you voluntarily provide to us, as well as data automatically collected when you visit our platforms.

A. Personal Data (Information You Provide): When you register to join KOHMMUNITY, volunteer, or participate in programs like Project Vote Lagos, we may collect:

Identifiers: Full name, email address, phone number, and WhatsApp contact.
Geography: Your Local Government Area (LGA), Local Council Development Area (LCDA), Ward, and Polling Unit (PU).
Engagement Preferences: Your areas of interest for volunteering (e.g., Polling Unit Guardians, Campus Ambassadors, Creator Lab, or Field Operations).

B. Technical and Usage Data: When you navigate our website, we automatically collect:

IP addresses, browser types, and device identifiers.
Information about how you interact with our website (pages visited, time spent, links clicked) to help us optimise our Digital Command strategy.

2. How We Use Your Information

Every data point we collect is used to execute our strategic masterplan and drive our campaign forward. We use your information to:

Coordinate Ground Operations: Map supporters across all 57 LGAs and 376 Wards to effectively deploy our grassroots networks and Polling Unit Guardians.
Communicate Effectively: Send you critical campaign updates, invitations to Town Halls, Mega-Rallies, Market Storms, and targeted voter education materials via email, SMS, and WhatsApp.
Process Contributions: Facilitate and acknowledge your financial donations transparently.

Improve Our Platforms: Analyse website usage to refine our digital strategy and ensure our message reaches the right audience.

3. How We Share Your Information

KOHMMUNITY will never sell, rent, or trade your personal information to third parties for commercial purposes. We only share your data under the following circumstances:

Campaign Coordination: As a formal support group, aggregated and anonymised demographic data may be shared with the official APC campaign structure to align our Final Push and Election Day operations.
Legal Compliance: We may disclose your information if required to do so by law, court order, or INEC electoral regulations, or to protect the safety, rights, and property of KOHMMUNITY, our volunteers, or the public.

4. Data Security and Governance

We treat your data with the same operational discipline we apply to our campaign.

Access Control: Access to our central database and Digital Ward Rooms is strictly limited to appointed State Leadership, Directorate heads, and verified Ward Coordinators on a need-to-know basis.
Encryption: We use standard encryption protocols (SSL/TLS) to protect data transmitted via our website.
While no digital system is 100% secure, our Operations Command Centre actively monitors our infrastructure to prevent unauthorised access, alteration, or data breaches.

5. Cookies and Tracking Technologies

Our website uses cookies (small text files stored on your device) to enhance your browsing experience. Cookies help us remember your preferences, understand site traffic, and deliver geo-targeted campaign messaging.

You can choose to disable cookies through your browser settings, though this may limit your ability to use certain features of our website (such as the Volunteer Registration Portal).

6. Your Rights and Choices

You are in control of your engagement with KOHMMUNITY. You have the right to:

Update Your Information: Ensure your Ward or Polling Unit details are accurate by updating your profile via our portal or contacting your Ward Coordinator.
Opt-Out/Unsubscribe: You can opt out of our email newsletters, SMS, or WhatsApp broadcasts at any time by clicking the “unsubscribe” link at the bottom of our emails or following the opt-out instructions in our messages.
Request Deletion: You may request the deletion of your personal data from our active campaign registry by contacting our Compliance Desk.

7. Changes to This Privacy Policy

As our campaign transitions through its four strategic phases: from Foundation to the Final Push, we may update this Privacy Policy to reflect changes in our operations or legal obligations. We will notify you of significant changes by posting the updated policy on this page and revising the “Last Updated” date.
