This notice explains how we handle personal information in accordance with the Protection of Personal Information Act 4 of 2013 (“POPIA”).
When you submit an enquiry, we collect the information you provide, including your name, email address, telephone number, selected service and message.
You may also provide company, contractor, client or site details relevant to your enquiry.
Our website and hosting services may process technical information such as your IP address, browser and device information, pages requested and access times to operate and protect the website.
Please provide only information relevant to your enquiry. Do not submit identity documents, medical information or other sensitive records through the general contact form. If these are necessary for an agreed service, we will discuss an appropriate way to provide them.

Depending on the circumstances, processing may be based on your consent, steps necessary to conclude or perform a contract, a legal obligation, or legitimate interests permitted by POPIA.
You choose whether to contact us and provide personal information. Fields marked as required must be completed to submit the online form.
If you do not provide sufficient contact details or information about your request, we may be unable to respond or prepare a suitable quotation. You can also contact us directly by email or telephone.
Information may be accessed by authorised people within our business and service providers who assist with website hosting, email, IT support or business administration, where necessary for the purposes described in this notice.
We may also disclose information to professional advisers or public authorities where legally required or otherwise permitted by law.
We do not sell personal information. An enquiry does not automatically subscribe you to a newsletter or give permission for unrelated marketing.
Personal information may be stored in our business email systems, website systems and relevant business records.
Where a service provider processes information outside South Africa, we must ensure that the transfer meets the requirements of POPIA, including an applicable lawful basis and appropriate protection for the information.
You may contact us for information about the providers and transfer arrangements relevant to your personal information.
We retain personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary for its purpose, or where retention is required or permitted by law.
Enquiry records may be retained while responding to your request and for relevant follow-up. If you become a client, information may form part of the records needed to provide services, meet legal obligations or resolve disputes.
When retention is no longer necessary or authorised, information will be securely deleted, destroyed or de-identified, subject to lawful backup and recovery arrangements.
We take reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect personal information against loss, misuse and unauthorised access or disclosure.
No website, email system or internet transmission can be guaranteed completely secure. Where a security compromise triggers notification obligations under POPIA, we will notify the Information Regulator and affected people as required by law.
