Abishingizi: Ubucuruzi bwacu bukenera ko ibikorwa byacu by’ubucuruzi byishingirwa mu buryo bukomeye. Hari abantu batandukanye benshi bagira uruhare mu bwishingizi (Urugero, abahuza mu bwishingizi, abishingizi n’ababishingira ndetse n’abajyanama babo mu by’akazi n’abandi bantu bagira uruhare igihe havutse ikibazo). Bizaba ngombwa ko tumenyesha bamwe mu bari muri iryo soko ry’ubwishingizi amakuru bwite aberekeyeho. Ayo makuru akoreshwa n’abari mu isoko ry’ubwishingizi uwishingirwa asinya amasezerano no mu rwego rwo gukomeza gucunga igikorwa cy’ubwishingizi igihe havutse ikibazo cy’ubwishingizi kikureba no gutuma umwishingizi n’uwishingirwa buzuza inshingano zabo ziteganywa n’amategeko n’amabwiriza. Bamwe muri aba barebwa n’igikorwa cy’ubwishingizi bakoresha ayo makuru mu izina ryacu (kimwe n’abaduha serivise twavuze) ariko abandi bashobora gutunganya amakuru yanyu bo ubwabo tutabibabwirije.

  • Abandi bantu: Dushobora guhanahana amakuru n’abandi bantu bakoresha imbuga/sisiteme za MTN twamamaza igicuruzwa cyabo. Cyakora, amakuru bwite yakusanyijwe arabanza akavanwaho amazina ya ba nyirayo kandi agahurizwa hamwe mu byiciro mbere y’uko ahabwa abo bantu bandi.
