Privacy notice
Draft for review. This notice describes how this demonstration site works today. It was written to follow the Data Privacy Act of 2012 (Republic Act 10173), but a lawyer or data privacy expert has not reviewed it yet. The LGU and its data protection officer must confirm it before the site is used for real reports.
Last updated 6 October 2026. In short: we ask for the least we need, we pass your details only to the LGU office that handles your report, and we show your name in public only if you tick the box.
Who runs this site
This is Demo LGU, a demonstration of a problem-reporting site built by Razza Consulting Group for a local government unit (LGU). The LGU decides what happens to the reports and details sent through it.
- Questions about your data
- Use the contact form. If you are asking about a report, include its reference number.
- Data protection officer
- To be named by the LGU before the site goes live.
What we collect, and why
| What you do | What we keep | Why | Who can see it |
|---|---|---|---|
| Report a problem | The category, title and description, any photos, the place on the map, and the project the report is about | So the LGU can find the problem and act on it | Everyone. Reports are public |
| Report a problem | Your name, email address and mobile number | To confirm your report, send you updates, and let the LGU call or write to you | The LGU office that handles the report. Your name is shown publicly only if you tick the box that allows it. Your email and mobile number are never shown |
| Rate a project | Your stars and your review, if you write one | To show how residents see a project and its contractor | Everyone. Your name is hidden unless you choose to show it |
| Sign up for local alerts | Your email address and the area you chose | To send the alerts you asked for, and nothing else | Only us and the LGU |
| Create an account (optional) | Your email address, name and, if you add one, mobile number. A password, kept in a scrambled form that nobody can read back | So you can see and manage your own reports | Only you, us and the LGU |
| Visit the site | The internet address your visit came from, kept in our server logs, and in a scrambled form in short-lived counters | To keep the site working and to stop one person flooding it with reports | Only the people who run the site |
We do not sell your details, use them for advertising, or share them with anyone except as described on this page.
Photos and descriptions are public
Anything you write in a report, and any photo you add, can be seen by anyone. Please do not include faces, number plates, house numbers or other details that identify a person. Do not put your phone number or email address in the description.
How long we keep your details
We keep your details for as long as the LGU needs them to deal with your report. Reports and their public updates stay on the site as a public record. You can ask us to remove your name, email address and mobile number. At present this is done by hand, so please allow a few days. The LGU will set a fixed retention period with its data protection officer before the site goes live.
Your rights
Under the Data Privacy Act you can ask to see the personal data we hold about you, correct it, object to how it is used, or have it deleted or blocked. Use the contact form and tell us which right you want to use. If you are not satisfied with the answer, you can complain to the National Privacy Commission at privacy.gov.ph.
