1. Overview & Scope

Event Ushers Platform Ltd ("Event Ushers", "we", "us", or "our") operates the website and mobile crew management platform. This Privacy Policy outlines our procedures regarding the collection, storage, processing, disclosure, and protection of personal data under the Kenya Data Protection Act (2019) and international hospitality compliance benchmarks.

This policy applies to all users accessing our services, including event organizers booking staffing, event hostesses, protocol officers, security crew members, and website visitors.

2. Information We Collect

We collect information to deliver seamless matching, verified shift check-ins, automated digital payouts, and high-security venue management.

For Event Organizers

  • • Business & Contact Person Name
  • • Corporate Email & Phone Number
  • • Venue Location & Event Schedules

For Crew Members & Hostesses

3. How We Use Your Personal Data

We process personal information strictly for legitimate operational purposes:

  • Crew Allocation & Matching: Matching event venue requirements with qualified, verified crew roster members.
  • Punctuality & Safety Verification: Geo-fenced mobile check-ins 60 minutes prior to doors opening to guarantee attendance.
  • Digital Payroll Disbursements: Processing immediate after-event payouts via M-Pesa or direct bank APIs.

4. Location Data & Geo-Fencing Transparency

To eliminate no-shows for high-profile summits, our mobile portal requests access to device GPS location during shift check-in windows.

Important Note on Privacy: Location tracking is only requested when a crew member initiates a shift check-in ping. We do NOT track background locations outside booked event shift hours.

5. Data Security & Storage Standards

We employ industry-leading technical and organizational security measures to protect data against unauthorized access, loss, or alteration:

Encrypted Storage

Database entries and uploaded ID documents are encrypted using AES-256 standard.

TLS/SSL In Transit

All communications between browsers, mobile web apps, and servers are TLS encrypted.
