Hello from Buzzdotnet (Pty)Ltd,
The Protection of Personal Information Act (POPIA)
The Protection of Personal Information Act (POPIA) is the comprehensive data protection legislation that obliges organisations to deal with the processing of personal information by applying specific principles and conditions. POPIA deals with your constitutional right to privacy and the right to access of information. POPIA was signed into law by our President on 1 July 2020 to be effective by 1 July 2021 and much work has taken place behind the scenes in preparation for this deadline.
1. What does POPIA mean for you as a client?
Buzzdotnet (Pty)Ltd has always been committed to treating client information in an ethical manner and POPIA provides the legal framework and requirements for this treatment. All companies are now obliged by law to deal with client information with far more diligence than ever before. This includes how and why information is collected, how it is processed, shared, stored as well as access to this information.
2. Please take note of the following POPIA changes:
