The Protection of Personal Information Act (POPI) is aimed at protecting your personal information and prescribes what we must and must not do with it. POPI created an Information Regulator who checks that companies like us manage personal information in a responsible manner that respects your privacy.
This privacy notice forms part of our agreement with you.
When you register with Wijenga, you provide us with your personal details, including your email address and telephone number. When you register a project in Wijenga, you provide us with details of that project.
That is all the information that we will ever retain and store in our database. When you purchase a project through Wijenga, we do not store or retain your credit card details in any way. We will give you the option of storing your card details in the secure vault of PayGate, our payment gateway, where the details will be stored in an encrypted format. We will get a link to that encrypted card, allowing you to effect a purchase without having to re-enter your card details. We are not able, however, to use that link to get access to the card details - only PayGate can do that.
If you have any questions about this vault storage mechanism, please feel free to telephone us, visit Paygate's website at www.paygate.co.za, phone them on +27 (0) 87820 2020 or email them at support@paygate.co.za.
When you log in to Wijenga, we store the date and time of your login. We use this information to help us improve our website and online services.
We do not use cookies to optimise your website experience.
We will not share your information with anyone else.
You have the right to ask what personal information we hold about you. You have the right to ask that we delete your login and erase all information we hold of you. You can do this by sending us an email.
We take your privacy and the security of your personal information seriously. We have implemented reasonable security safeguards to protect the personal information that you provide. All information is protected by SSL encryption when it is exchanged between your web browser and our website.
We regularly monitor our systems for possible vulnerabilities and attacks. As no system is perfect we cannot guarantee that information may not be accessed, disclosed, altered or destroyed by breach of any of our physical, technical or managerial safeguards.
Please note that any e-mail you send to us is not encrypted and may be monitored by us. Please do not send us sensitive or confidential personal information by means of e-mail. We will inform you if your privacy is ever compromised.
