Last Updated on October 1, 2023. This Privacy Policy is effective immediately for Users after that date.
BudgIT Foundation (“we,” “us,”) respect your privacy and are committed to protecting it through our compliance with this Privacy Policy. This policy describes:
This policy applies only to information we collect through our Services and in the electronic communications sent through or in connection with our Services.
“User” or “you” or “your” refers to you, as a user of the Services. A user is someone who accesses or uses the Services for the purpose of sharing, displaying, hosting, publishing, transacting, uploading information or viewing pictures and includes other persons jointly participating in using the Services.
“Content” will include (but is not limited to) images, photos, audio, video, location data, ‘nearby places’, and all other forms of information or data.
BudgIT strives to offer its visitors and Users the many advantages of Internet technology and to provide an interactive and personalised experience. For these purposes, we, from BudgIT may use personally identifiable information – like your name, e-mail address, address, telephone number, etc., which are subject to the terms of this Privacy Policy. We, and we suppose you too, do not tolerate spam. We will therefore never sell, barter, or rent your email address to any unauthorised third parties.
BudgIT may collect and use information of and regarding its Users. We collect only data which is essential to our operations and enables us to provide you with better user experience.
The information, through which the person may be identified, may include data, which the User voluntarily enters, uses or provides when using the Services of the BudgIT/Phctracka Website. BudgIT collects and uses the information for the purposes, outlined in this Privacy Policy, as well as to offer new services to the User or to familiarise him with new functionalities on the Website.
We collect two types of information from and about our Users, including information:
The information we collect on or through our Services may include:
We collect this information in order to provide you with access to certain features of our Services and to inform you about relevant information concerning your use of our Services.
We collect this information in order to enhance your user experience.
We collect this information in order to improve your user experience and provide you with more relevant content and Services.
We collect this information in order to analyse the behaviour of our users and improve our Services.
We collect this information in order to monitor the quality of our support staff or partners and your communications with us.
How we collect and store information depends on the pages you are visiting, the activities in which you choose to participate and the services provided. For example, you may be asked to provide information when you register for access to certain portions of our Website. BudgIT also collects information automatically and through the use of electronic tools that may be transparent to our visitors and Users.
Like other Websites, we collect information to know about your service experience at the PHC facility and/or your concerns that you choose to document. We respect your privacy and we only use the information you provide for the sole purpose of enhancing the quality of PHC facility infrastructures and service delivery. We do not share your information with anyone that does not play a role in enhancing PHC services, except in cases when that proves necessary.
Aggregate information and information that does not personally identify you, may be used in many ways. For example, BudgIT may combine information about your usage patterns on the Website with similar information obtained from other users to help enhance PHC service delivery. This information does not include any information about you and does not allow anyone to identify you individually. We may use personally identifiable information, collected on the Website, to communicate with you about your registration and customisation preferences; our Terms of Service and Privacy Policy; services and products offered by or through the Website; and other topics we think you might find of interest. Personally identifiable information collected by BudgIT may also be used for other purposes, including but not limited to data analysis, research and presentation of reports to government and other critical stakeholders.
BudgIT won’t transfer information about you to third parties for the purpose of providing or facilitating third-party advertising to you. We won’t sell information about you. We may share your account information with third parties in some circumstances, including: (1) with your consent; (2) to a service provider or partner who meets our data protection standards; (3) when we have a good faith belief it is required by law, such as pursuant to a subpoena or other legal process; (4) when we have a good faith belief that doing so will help quality of service delivery of primary health care. If we are going to share your information in response to a legal process, we’ll give you notice so you can challenge it (for example by seeking court intervention), unless we’re prohibited by law or believe doing so may endanger others. We will object to requests for information about users of our services that we believe are improper. Certain third parties who provide technical support for the operation of our Website – our Web hosting service for example – may have access to such information.
You may withdraw your consent for collecting your personal information at any time. To do so, please contact us at [email protected]

These means aim at improving the integrity and security of the personal information that we collect and maintain. However, please be advised that even the best security measures cannot guarantee the full elimination of all risks. If we learn of any violation, breach or danger to our security systems breach, then we will attempt to notify you electronically so that timely and appropriate protective steps can be taken.
