Privacy Policy
Effective Date: April 16, 2026
This Privacy Policy explains how the Ghana Teacher Prize (GTP), operated by the National Teaching Council (NTC) Ghana, handles information when you use the Ghana Teacher Prize website and Android mobile application.
1. About the App
The Ghana Teacher Prize Android app is primarily a WebView wrapper that provides mobile access to the Ghana Teacher Prize website at https://gtp.ntc.gov.gh.
This means the app mainly displays the website content inside the mobile app. Information submitted by users is generally processed through the Ghana Teacher Prize web platform rather than through separate native Android-only features.
2. Information We May Collect
When you use the website or app, we may process information that you voluntarily provide, including:
- Name
- Email address
- Phone number
- Login details
- Application, registration, or profile information submitted through the platform
We may also process limited technical information necessary for access, security, and performance, such as:
- IP address
- Browser or device type
- App version
- Basic usage logs and error logs
3. How We Use Information
We use information to:
- Provide access to the Ghana Teacher Prize platform
- Authenticate users and manage accounts
- Process submissions and registrations
- Improve platform performance, security, and reliability
- Respond to support requests and communicate important updates
- Comply with legal or administrative obligations
4. Data Sharing
We do not sell personal information. Information may be shared only where necessary with authorised personnel, service providers supporting the platform, or where required by law.
5. WebView and Website Data
Because the Android app displays the Ghana Teacher Prize website inside a WebView, some data handling may occur as part of normal website operation, such as session handling, login state, and standard web storage technologies used by the site for functionality and security.
The Android app itself is intended only to provide convenient mobile access to the website and does not claim separate collection of personal data beyond what is needed to display and support the web service.
6. Data Security
We use reasonable technical and organisational safeguards to protect personal information. However, no online service can guarantee absolute security.
7. Data Retention
We retain information only for as long as needed to operate the platform, maintain security, meet administrative needs, and comply with legal obligations.
8. Your Rights
You may contact us to request access to, correction of, or deletion of your personal information, subject to applicable legal and administrative requirements.
9. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Updates will be posted on this page with a revised effective date.
