How we use information
OfficeData uses personal and service information for practical business and service-delivery purposes, including to:
- Respond to enquiries, prepare quotes, schedule calls, and manage customer relationships.
- Design, develop, configure, host, secure, monitor, maintain, and support customer systems.
- Manage accounts, invoices, contracts, service records, backups, updates, and operational communications.

Where applicable, our handling of personal data is guided by Ghana’s Data Protection Act, 2012 (Act 843), including principles of fairness, purpose limitation, security, and responsible processing.
Fleet, GPS, and location data
If you use OfficeData fleet tracking, Trakzee-related services, vehicle monitoring, or location-enabled services, we may process GPS coordinates, route history, geofence events, timestamps, driver or vehicle identifiers, device status, alerts, and telematics data where enabled.
This information is used to provide the service, display vehicle visibility, support safety and accountability, troubleshoot devices, generate reports, and maintain service quality. Customers using fleet or location services are responsible for notifying their drivers, employees, contractors, or other authorised users as required by applicable law and internal policy.
Cookies and website analytics
Our website may use cookies, analytics tools, security technologies, and similar features to keep the site working, understand how visitors use pages, improve performance, protect against abuse, and remember basic preferences. You can control or block cookies through your browser settings, although some website features may not work correctly without them.
Sharing and international processing
OfficeData does not sell or rent personal information. We may share information only where reasonably necessary for service delivery, business operations, legal compliance, or customer-authorised support.
- With hosting, cloud, domain, connectivity, software, payment, security, analytics, and technical service providers.
- With customer-authorised administrators, staff, vendors, or partners involved in a project or support request.
- With professional advisers, insurers, auditors, or authorities where required by law or necessary to protect rights and security.
Some systems or providers may process or store data outside Ghana. Where this happens, we use service providers and operational safeguards intended to protect information according to the nature of the service and the data involved.
Security and retention
We apply administrative, technical, and physical safeguards designed to protect personal and service data. These may include access controls, role-based permissions, secure credentials, backups, monitoring, logging, encryption where appropriate, and internal procedures for handling support information.
No digital service can be guaranteed to be completely secure. If we become aware of an incident affecting information under our control, we will take reasonable steps to investigate, contain, remediate, and communicate as appropriate.
We keep information for as long as needed to deliver services, maintain records, resolve support issues, meet legal, accounting, security, and operational requirements, or protect legitimate business interests. When information is no longer needed, we delete, anonymise, or archive it according to our retention practices and applicable obligations.
Your privacy rights
Subject to verification and applicable legal requirements, you may ask OfficeData to help you access, correct, update, restrict, delete, or review personal information we hold about you. Where processing is based on consent, you may withdraw consent, although this may affect our ability to provide some services.
Some requests may be limited where we need to keep information for service delivery, security, fraud prevention, legal compliance, accounting records, dispute handling, or other legitimate purposes.
You may also contact the Ghana Data Protection Commission if you have concerns about the handling of personal data under Ghana’s data protection laws.
Children, external links, and updates
Our website and business services are not directed to children under 16, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children for general website or sales purposes.
Our site may link to third-party websites, products, or services. Their privacy practices are controlled by those third parties, not by OfficeData, so you should review their policies before sharing information with them.
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we make material changes, we will publish the revised policy on this page and update the “Last updated” date.
