As a public authority, the County Government of Busia (CGB) has an obligation to protect its information assets and, in particular, the information relating to its staff, stakeholders and other individuals in whatever form that information is held. The CGB is careful to ensure that personal information is properly safeguarded. The CGB and all those who process or have access to personal information must comply with the Data Protection Principles laid out at all times. Unauthorised disclosure may be a disciplinary matter and in some cases may be considered as gross misconduct.
The CGB functions require us to obtain, process and manage certain information about individuals/organisations to enable us to provide a high level of service being requested by citizens, employees and stakeholders.
All data, whether held electronically or manually, will be kept securely and not disclosed
unlawfully. The CGB respects and will accommodate the right of individuals to access, check and
improve the accuracy of any personal data that is being kept about them, either on computer or in a
relevant filing system, as defined in legislation.
