  • Correspondence: records of enquiries, proposals, contracts and communications with our team.

3. How We Use Your Information

Personal information is processed for legitimate business purposes, including:

We do not sell personal information to third parties.

6. Cross-Border Transfers

Where information is transferred outside South Africa (for example, to international funders or cloud providers), we ensure that the recipient is subject to laws, binding agreements or rules providing an adequate level of protection substantially similar to POPIA.

7. Data Retention

We retain personal information only for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes set out in this policy and to comply with statutory retention periods (including the Companies Act, Tax Administration Act and FICA), after which information is securely destroyed, deleted or de-identified.

8. Security Safeguards

We implement appropriate technical and organisational measures — including access controls, encryption, secure cloud infrastructure, vendor due diligence and employee confidentiality undertakings — to protect personal information against loss, unauthorised access, alteration or disclosure.

9. Your Rights

  • Request access to the personal information we hold about you.
  • Request correction or deletion of inaccurate or outdated information.
  • Object to processing or withdraw consent (where processing is based on consent).
