How we meet the eight conditions for lawful processing
| Condition | What we do |
|---|---|
| Accountability | An Information Officer is appointed and this compliance framework is reviewed at least once a year. |
| Processing limitation | We collect only what the service needs, with a lawful basis for each purpose (privacy notice, section 4). |
| Purpose specification | Each purpose is stated up front, and records are deleted when no longer needed (privacy notice, section 7). |
| Further processing | We do not reuse your information for unrelated purposes, and never use businesses’ client lists for our own marketing. |
| Information quality | Account owners can correct their information in Settings at any time. |
| Openness | This notice, our privacy notice, cookie policy and PAIA manual are public. |
| Security safeguards | Encryption in transit, hashed passwords, tenant isolation, role-based access and breach notification. |
| Data subject participation | Access, correction, deletion and objection requests, explained below. |
Your rights
| Right | How to use it |
|---|---|
| Access: know what we hold and get a copy | Account owners: Settings → Privacy & data → Export. Anyone else: email the Information Officer. |
| Correction | Edit your details in Settings, or email us with the correction. |
| Deletion | Account owners: Settings → Privacy & data → Delete account. Anyone else: email us. |
| Objection | Object to processing based on legitimate interest by emailing us (the Regulations’ Form 1 can be used but is not required). |
| Withdraw consent | Change cookie choices with the Cookie settings link in the footer. Unsubscribe from marketing email with the link in any email. |
| Not be subject to automated decisions | We make no decisions about you based solely on automated processing. |
| Complain | Contact the Information Officer first, then the Information Regulator if you are not satisfied. |
We may ask you to verify your identity before acting on a request, so that we never hand information to the wrong person. We respond within 30 days. Requests under POPIA are free. Copies of records requested under PAIA may attract the fees set in the PAIA regulations; see our PAIA manual.
If you are a client of a business that uses Trade a Quote
Your quotes, invoices and contact details belong to the business you deal with. That business is the responsible party and decides how your information is used; we are its operator. Send requests about that information to the business directly. If you cannot reach them, email us and we will pass the request on and help them respond.
Direct marketing
We send product news and offers by email only to people who opted in, as POPIA s69 requires, and every marketing email has an unsubscribe link. Service messages (such as invoices you are sent, password resets and billing notices) are not marketing and are always sent.
Security compromises
If we have reasonable grounds to believe personal information has been accessed by someone unauthorised, we notify the Information Regulator and the affected people as soon as reasonably possible, as POPIA s22 requires. Where the information belongs to a business's clients, we notify that business so it can notify them.
