Abstract

Considering the sensitivity of the data that is used and the legal implications that arise, the following study looks towards assessing the rise of Kenyan AI eHealth platforms. Assessment here lies with interrogating whether there are privacy initiatives in place, if so, do the privacy initiatives adhere to the required national legal standards stipulated in strategic policies, acts of parliament and relevant international legal standards. In addition, the study will assess the efficacy of the privacy policies, here factors such as the structure and design will be considered. This will involve evaluating the comprehension of the privacy policies from the viewpoint of an average Kenyan and the barriers that limit comprehension (e.g., legal jargon, length of the policies...etc.).
