Third-party sharing

Service Providers

We may share personal data with trusted service providers that support hosting, security, communications, record management, analytics, or other operational services. These parties are expected to use the information only for the services they perform for us and to handle it under appropriate confidentiality and security obligations.

We may use session cookies, persistent cookies, and similar technologies. These may support core site functions, remember preferences, help understand how the site is used, and improve reliability. We do not use cookies to collect more information than is needed for these purposes.

You can usually block or delete cookies through your browser settings. Some cookies are necessary for the site to function properly, and disabling them may affect performance or certain features. Where the site offers cookie controls, those settings may also be used to manage preferences.

User Rights

Your Rights

Subject to legal limits, you may ask to access, correct, update, or delete certain personal data, or object to some forms of processing. You may also raise concerns about inaccurate or incomplete information. Where a request cannot be fully granted, we will explain the reason where appropriate.

Available rights depend on the nature of the request and applicable South African law.
Requests

How to Make a Request

To protect personal data, we may ask for enough information to verify a request before responding. We will review requests within a reasonable period and in line with applicable law. If additional information is needed to locate records or confirm authority, we may request it before taking further steps.

We may need to confirm identity before acting on a request.
Data Retention

Retention of Data

We retain personal data for the period needed to provide services, maintain records, resolve disputes, meet legal or accounting requirements, and support legitimate business operations. When data is no longer required, we delete it, anonymise it, or restrict it so that it is no longer actively used, subject to any legal retention duty.

We keep information only for as long as needed for the relevant purpose or legal obligation.
