HELPING YOU AND YOUR BUSINESS TO BE FULLY POPI COMPLIANT

The Protection of Personal Information Act (Act 4 of 2013) (POPI) obliged you to become POPI compliant by 1 July 2021. 

What must you do to implement POPI in your Business? 

Section 3 of POPI provides the legal requirement for every Business and Legal Entity (=Responsible Party) to comply with the POPI Act in every respect in relation to the Processing of Personal Information of all natural and juristic persons, including employees, clients, suppliers and service providers (=Data Subjects)

POPI applies to all natural persons and juristic persons (business and legal entities including funds and schemes), whether owned by individuals, companies, partners, members, sole proprietors, close corporations, NGOs/PBOs, associations and business trusts, including dormant entities. Only de-registered entities do not need to have a POPI Manual, and Information Officer registered.

POPI is a Privacy Law that applies conditions for the lawful processing of personal data. The goal of POPI is to protect data subjects (such as employees, customers, services providers etc) from security breaches, theft and discrimination and is based on the European Union’s legislation, called the GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation).
