POPI (PROTECTION OF PERSONAL INFORMATION)

What is the POPI Act:

We respect your right to privacy and therefore aim to ensure that we comply

with the legal requirement of the POPI Act which regulates the manner in which we

collect, process, store, share and destroy any personal information which you have provided to us.

 

What information will we collect:

We collect information directly from you where you provide us with your personal details. 
Where possible, we will inform you what information you are required to provide to us and
what information is optional.

 

Why do we collect Personal Information:

We collect personal information in order to liaise with you telephonically, via our website

or email so that we may:

  1. respond to any query or comment received from you;
  2. inform you of new services;
  3. enable us to process, validate and verify information and requests for the supply of services;
  4. for the purposes for which you specifically provided the information; and
  5. generally to improve your experience on our website.

 

Minors:

If you are under 18 years of age (minor), we will require the consent of your

parent/guardian/competent person before we process such personal information.

Processing of Information

 

We will share your personal information:

  1. in order to comply with applicable law or with legal process served on our company;
  2. in order to protect and defend the rights or property of our company; and
  3. with employees and/or third parties who assist us in providing services to you and thus
require your personal information in order to render a proper and efficient service. We will ensure
that all such employees and third party service providers, having access to your personal
information, are bound by confidentiality agreements.

 

Collection of Information by “Cookies”:

You are aware that information and data is automatically collected through the standard

operation of the Internet servers and through the use of “cookies.” “Cookies” are small

text files a website can use to recognise repeat users, facilitate the user’s ongoing

access to and use of the website and allow a website to track usage behaviour and

compile aggregate data that will allow content improvements and targeted advertising.

Cookies are not programs that come onto your system and damage files. Generally,

cookies work by assigning a unique number to you that has no meaning outside the

assigning site. If you do not want information collected through the use of cookies,

there is a simple procedure in most browsers that allows you to deny or accept the

cookie feature; however, you should note that cookies may be necessary to provide

you with certain features (e.g., customized delivery of information) available on our Websites.

 

Security Measures:

We will:

- treat your personal information as strictly confidential;
- take appropriate technical and organisational measures
to ensure that your personal information is kept secure and is protected
against unauthorised or unlawful processing, accidental loss, destruction
or damage, alteration, disclosure or access;
- promptly notify you if we become aware of any unauthorised use, disclosure
or processing of your personal information;
- provide you with reasonable evidence of our compliance with our obligations
under this policy on reasonable request; and
- We will not retain your personal information longer than the period for which
it was originally required, unless we are required by law to do so, or you consent
to us retaining such information for a longer period.

 

ALTHOUGH WE TAKE THE AFOREMENTIONED PRECAUTIONS IN

PROTECTING YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION, WE SHALL HOWEVER

NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY LOSS OR DAMAGE, HOWSOEVER ARISING,

SUFFERED AS A RESULT OF THE DISCLOSURE OF SUCH INFORMATION

IF BEYOND OUR REASONABLE CONTROL.

 

Your rights:

You have the right at any time to:

  1. rectify the Personal Information collected by us;
  2. object to the processing of Personal Information (subject to legislation);
  3. request the return or destruction of Personal Information (subject to legislation);
  4. lodge a complaint with the company.

third country or International organization.
