    How we work

    We assess your current compliance with data privacy law, and draw up elegant and practical solutions

    The Protection of Personal Information Act (2013) stipulates a range of rules on how to process personal information about people and companies. Apart from having the right people, procedures and documents in place, efficient management of queries and disputes is crucial for lawful data privacy compliance

  • Data privacy is protected in South Africa by POPIA, a national act that gives effect to the (universal, human and constitutional) right to privacy. POPIA must be read together with PAIA, another act that gives effect to the right to access to information. Together these acts establish the legal framework for managing personal information about the people you do business with.
