Would you be okay if someone shared your private details online? If not, donโt do it to others. Privacy is a right, not a privilege. Think before you share. #PersonalDataisPrivate #DataPrivacyUG

Thank you @MarkEjangu, You raise a valid concern regarding access to candidate results via the SMS platform. We will engage @UNEB_UG to discuss possible ways to ensure that results remain accessible to the right people while addressing any concerns about unauthorized access. Thank you for bringing this to our attention, we appreciate the feedback and will keep advocating for responsible data handing.

Did you knowโ Uganda's Data Protection and Privacy Act Cap 97, mandates every organization to ensure compliance with the principles of data protection. Failure to comply can lead to penalties, reputational damage, and loss of consumer trust. Compliance not only safeguards individuals' privacy but also strengthens business credibility and legal standing. #PersonalDataisPrivate #DataPrivacyUG
