Data Protection

DAPSCNECT LTD (“DapsCnect,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) operates AI-powered data infrastructure services for individuals, institutions, and governments. Protecting personal data is central to our mission. We design our products and internal processes to minimize data errors while safeguarding the privacy and security of the information entrusted to us.

This notice applies to personal data processed when you:

• Use the DapsCnect mobile application or related apps
• Access our websites, web platforms (including DapsKYC and DapsAI), and online services
• Create an account, submit documents, or interact with our support team

For detailed information about the categories of data we collect and how we use them, please refer to our Privacy Policy.

We comply with the Ghana Data Protection Act, 2012 (Act 843) and regulations issued by the Data Protection Commission of Ghana. Where our services are used by individuals in other jurisdictions, we also take into account applicable requirements, including the EU/UK General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and, where relevant, U.S. state privacy laws.

Our processing activities are governed by our registration with the Data Protection Commission and by contractual obligations with clients and partners who entrust us with personal data.

For the purposes of applicable data protection law, the data controller responsible for your personal data is:

• DAPSCNECT LTD (DapsCnect Company Limited)
• DAPSCNECT LTD, GE-080-9284, Ashongman Road, Mountain View Estate, BBL Apartment, Pure Water Police Station, Ashongman, Greater Accra 00233, Ghana

When we process data on behalf of institutional clients (such as migration agencies or compliance teams using DapsKYC), those clients may act as data controllers for certain processing activities. In such cases, we act as a data processor and process data in accordance with our agreements with those clients.

We adhere to the core principles of data protection under Ghanaian law and international best practice:

• Lawfulness, fairness, and transparency — we process data on valid legal grounds and communicate clearly about our practices.
• Purpose limitation — we collect data for specified, explicit, and legitimate purposes and do not use it in incompatible ways.
• Data minimization — we collect only what is necessary for the services you use.
• Accuracy — we take reasonable steps to keep personal data accurate and up to date.
• Storage limitation — we retain data only as long as necessary for the purposes for which it was collected.
• Integrity and confidentiality — we implement appropriate security measures to protect personal data.
• Accountability — we maintain records of processing and respond to regulatory and individual requests.

Depending on the context, we rely on one or more of the following lawful bases to process personal data:

• Consent — where you have given clear permission, such as for optional features or marketing communications.
• Contract — where processing is necessary to provide services you have requested or to enter into a contract with you.
• Legal obligation — where we must comply with applicable laws, regulations, or court orders.
• Legitimate interests — where processing is necessary for our legitimate business interests, provided your rights do not override those interests.
• Vital interests — where processing is necessary to protect the life or safety of an individual.

Under the Ghana Data Protection Act and, where applicable, GDPR and other laws, you may have the following rights:

• Right of access — request a copy of the personal data we hold about you.
• Right to rectification — request correction of inaccurate or incomplete data.
• Right to erasure — request deletion of your personal data in certain circumstances.
• Right to restrict processing — request that we limit how we use your data.
• Right to data portability — receive your data in a structured, commonly used format where applicable.
• Right to object — object to certain types of processing, including direct marketing.
• Right to withdraw consent — where processing is based on consent, withdraw it at any time without affecting prior lawful processing.
• Right to lodge a complaint — contact the Data Protection Commission of Ghana or your local supervisory authority.

We implement organizational and technical safeguards designed to protect personal data against unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction. These measures include access controls, encryption in transit and at rest where appropriate, secure development practices, staff training, and regular review of our security posture.

No method of transmission over the Internet or electronic storage is completely secure. While we strive to protect your personal data, we cannot guarantee absolute security.

DapsCnect is registered in Ghana and the United States. Personal data may be processed in either jurisdiction or by service providers in other countries. When we transfer personal data across borders, we implement appropriate safeguards — such as contractual clauses, adequacy decisions, or other mechanisms recognized under applicable law — to ensure your data receives an adequate level of protection.

In the event of a personal data breach that is likely to result in a risk to your rights and freedoms, we will notify the Data Protection Commission of Ghana and affected individuals as required by law. We maintain internal procedures to detect, investigate, and respond to security incidents promptly.
