POPIA Notice
This notice explains how TechKinect processes personal information in line with the Protection of Personal Information Act, 4 of 2013 (POPIA).
Responsible party
Kinect AutoTech, The Palms, Ferness Estate, 7800, Cape Town, is the responsible party for the personal information collected through this website. You can reach us on 067 049 2659.
Personal information we process
Contact details and project details you submit through our enquiry forms: name, company, email address, phone number, WhatsApp number, project type, business stage, main challenge, optional budget range, project description and referral source.
Purpose and lawful basis
We process this information to respond to your enquiry and, where relevant, to prepare and perform a contract with you. Providing your details is voluntary, but we cannot respond to an enquiry without at least a name and a way to reach you.
Sharing
We do not sell personal information. We share it only with service providers that help us operate — such as our hosting and database provider — under appropriate confidentiality and security obligations.
Security safeguards
Enquiry data is stored in an access-controlled database with row-level security, and is transmitted over encrypted connections. Access is limited to authorised TechKinect personnel.
Retention
We keep enquiry records for as long as needed to respond, to deliver any resulting project, and to satisfy legal or accounting record-keeping requirements.
Your rights
You may request access to the personal information we hold about you, request correction or deletion, object to processing, or lodge a complaint with the Information Regulator of South Africa. To exercise any of these rights, contact us on 067 049 2659 or through the contact page.
