Privacy Policy

JPSDV (Pty.) Ltd (“JPSDV”, “we”, “us” or “our”) is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, store and disclose personal information when you use our website or engage our services.

1. Information we collect

We may collect the following categories of personal information:

• Contact details — name, email address, telephone number and postal address
• Enquiry information — messages and details you submit via our contact form or by email
• Business information — company name, role and jurisdiction-related details you provide in the course of an engagement
• Technical data — IP address, browser type and basic usage data collected automatically when you visit our website

2. How we use your information

We use personal information to:

• Respond to enquiries and provide our professional services
• Manage client relationships and deliver tax, accountancy and company formation advice
• Comply with legal and regulatory obligations
• Improve our website and communications
• Protect our legitimate business interests and prevent fraud or misuse

3. Legal basis for processing

Where applicable (including under the South African Protection of Personal Information Act, 2013 — POPIA), we process personal information on the basis of consent, contractual necessity, legal obligation, or our legitimate interests in operating and improving our business, provided those interests are not overridden by your rights.

4. Sharing of information

We do not sell your personal information. We may share information with:

• Service providers who assist us (for example secure email or hosting providers), under appropriate confidentiality arrangements
• Professional advisers and regulatory bodies where required by law or professional standards
• Authorities when we are legally obliged to disclose information

5. International transfers

As we operate across jurisdictions, your information may be processed outside South Africa. Where we transfer personal information internationally, we take reasonable steps to ensure an adequate level of protection consistent with applicable law.

6. Retention

We retain personal information only for as long as necessary for the purposes set out in this policy, or as required by law or professional record-keeping obligations. Enquiry data that does not lead to an engagement is typically retained for a limited period and then deleted or anonymised.

7. Security

We implement appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect personal information against unauthorised access, loss or alteration. No method of transmission over the internet is completely secure; we cannot guarantee absolute security.

8. Your rights

Subject to applicable law (including POPIA), you may have the right to:

• Access the personal information we hold about you
• Request correction or deletion of your information
• Object to or restrict certain processing
• Withdraw consent where processing is based on consent
• Lodge a complaint with the Information Regulator (South Africa) or another relevant authority
