Privacy Policy
The Ministry of Health (MoH) of the United Republic of Tanzania is committed to improving the efficiency and transparency of healthcare services. To this end, we have developed the MoH Report App, which facilitates the real-time approval process for reports submitted by various MoH departments. This app supports health officials in ensuring that reports are reviewed, approved, and disseminated appropriately within the Ministry.
Access to the MoH Report App is restricted to authorized users working within the Ministry of Health. The Ministry is the sole entity responsible for granting access to the app. Users can manage and monitor reports, add comments, and issue directives as required.
This Privacy Policy outlines our commitment to safeguarding the personal and sensitive data of individuals who use the MoH Report App. This document explains the types of data we collect, how we use and store it, the security measures we implement, and the rights individuals have regarding their data.
We encourage all users, including administrators and MoH personnel, to read this privacy policy carefully to understand how the MoH Report App uses their data and the data they manage. We are committed to transparency and accountability, ensuring data protection at the highest levels.
