By subscribing to our Privacy Policy, you agree that we may collect, collate, process and/or store your Personal Information, as defined in POPIA, and as set out hereunder. Section 1 of POPIA describes “personal information, as relating to an identifiable, living, natural person and where it is applicable, an identifiable juristic person, including but not limited to (a)         information relating to the race, gender, sex, pregnancy, marital status, national, ethnic or social origin, colour, sexual orientation, age, physical or mental health, well-being, disability, religion, conscience, belief, culture, language and birth of a person; (b)         information relating to the education or the medical, financial, criminal or employment history of a person; (c)          any identifying number, symbol, e-mail address, physical address, telephone number or other particular assignment to a person; (d)         biometric information of a person; (e)         the personal opinions, views or preferences of a person; (g)         correspondence sent by the person that is implicitly or explicitly of a private or confidential nature or further correspondence that would reveal the contents of the original correspondence; and (h)         the name of the person if it appears with other Personal Information relating to the person or if the disclosure of the name itself would reveal information about the person. When there are reasonable grounds to believe that your Personal Information has been accessed or acquired by an unauthorised person, we will notify you and the relevant Regulator, unless a public body responsible for detection, prevention or investigation of offences, or the relevant Regulator, informs us that notifying you will impede a criminal investigation, or if there is another legal ground not to inform you.
