Applicable baselines & overlays
By virtue of Zambia's African Union membership and Southern African Development Community (SADC) affiliation — plus any national statute in force — the following standards form the compliance stack ZenoXCare operates under here.
Cross-border data transfers
Where Zambia's regime permits processing in non-adequate countries, ZenoXCare relies on contract-based safeguards (Standard-Contractual-Clauses-equivalent), with a per-recipient transfer assessment filed with the national data-protection authority. The full record of processing activities is summarised on the standards & compliance overview; partners and regulators can request the per-country evidence pack from our compliance team.
