The facts

The ODPC opened a suo moto investigation into Alpha Academy Eldoret's processing of minors' personal data. The school failed to comply with the Office's request for information, which the determination notes constitutes an offence of failing to comply with a notice, and it failed to demonstrate that its processing activities, particularly of minors' personal data, comply with the Act. The Office found the school non-compliant.

Orders and outcome

The respondent was found non-compliant in respect of the suo moto investigation and an enforcement notice was issued against it. Dated 16 December 2025.
