Privacy policy
Version 2026-10-23. Draft, to be reviewed by counsel. This policy completes the privacy policy of pay.fosiarw.com for the Fosia Connect service.
Who is responsible
Fosia Ltd, Kigali, Rwanda (infos@fosiarw.com), under Rwanda Law No 058/2021 on the protection of personal data and privacy.
What we keep, and why
- Your account: business name, contact e-mail, the versions of these terms and of this policy you accepted, and when — to provide the service and prove your consent.
- Your PawaPay key: encrypted (AES-256-GCM) before it is stored, never stored or logged in plain text, never sent to the assistant; only its last 4 characters are shown — to call PawaPay for you.
- Your transactions: references, amounts, statuses and, for deposits and payouts, the payer's or payee's phone number — to show you your activity and reconcile it. PawaPay's callbacks are kept for audit.
- Your assistant conversations and their usage (tokens, cost) — to answer you, and to meter the assistant.
- Security records: sessions, rate-limit counters (hashed), a log of sensitive actions.
No advertising tracker, no analytics cookie. The cookies are strictly necessary: your session (HttpOnly, Secure, SameSite) and a form-protection cookie.
Who processes data for us, and where
- Hostinger International — server hosting, France (Paris).
- PawaPay — your own provider, under your own contract with them; we call it with your key.
- Anthropic PBC — the assistant (United States): only what you write to the assistant and the facts its tools return, never your keys.
- BunnyWay d.o.o. (Bunny Storage) — encrypted off-site backups (European Union).
- Hostinger (pay.fosiarw.com, United States) — your Fosia account, purchases and support.
How long
- Transactions: 24 months. PawaPay callbacks: 90 days.
- Assistant conversations: 90 days. Assistant usage records: 24 months.
- Sessions: until they expire (14 days at most). One-time sign-in links: 7 days. Rate-limit counters: 24 hours. Security log: 12 months.
- Backups: hourly copies kept 10 days on our server; encrypted off-site copies kept up to 12 months.
- Your account and consents: as long as your account exists.
