Privacy Policy

At MyPerks (Pty) Ltd (2019/054677/07) (“MyPerks”) we adhere to the highest standards of protecting your personal information when we process it by virtue of your use of our services and/or our website https://myperks.co.za/ or our application (collectively, the “Platform”), or by providing us with your personal information in any other way. As such, we have created this privacy policy for you to read and to understand how we safeguard your personal information and respect your privacy (“Privacy Policy”).

Please note that MyPerks is a private company duly registered and operating in accordance with the laws of the Republic of South Africa.

Please ensure that you read all the provisions below, and our policies and guidelines which may apply from time to time, to understand all of your, and our, rights and duties.

 

  1. Important Information and Who We Are

Purpose of this Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy aims to give you information on how we collect and process your personal information through any form of your engagement with us.  This Privacy Policy complies with, and facilitates the obligations required from, the South African Protection of Personal Information Act, No. 4 of 2013 (“POPI”), as amended.

It is important that you read this Privacy Policy together with any other privacy policy or fair processing notice we may provide on specific occasions when we are collecting or processing personal information about you, so that you are fully aware of how and why we are using your personal information. This Privacy Policy supplements the other notices and is not intended to override them.

We do not process the data of minors nor special categories of personal information as a responsible party. Do not provide us with any such personal data, unless done so under instruction as an operator where you will remain the responsible party of such personal data and provide us with limited access insofar as necessary to process under your instruction.

Our Role

MyPerks is the “Responsible Party” for your personal information when we decide its processing operations. In most instances we operate as an “Operator” of personal information on behalf of a client who uses our services within their organisation. In these circumstances, the client’s privacy policy or statement will apply to the processing of personal data.

We have appointed an information officer at MyPerks who is responsible for overseeing questions in relation to this Privacy Policy. If you have any questions about this Privacy Policy, including any requests to exercise your legal rights, please contact our information officer using the details set out below.

Changes to this Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy was last updated on 10 October 2023 and previous versions are archived and can be provided on request.

It is important that the personal information we hold about you is accurate and current. Please keep us informed if your personal information changes during your relationship with us.

This Privacy Policy is subject to change without notice and is updated or amended from time to time and will be effective once we upload the amended version to the Platform.

It is your responsibility to read this document periodically to ensure you are aware of any changes.

Third-Party Links on Platform

The Platform may include links to third-party platforms, plug-ins, and applications. Clicking on those links or enabling those connections may allow third parties to collect or share information about you. We do not control these third-party platforms and are not responsible for their privacy statements or terms. When you leave our Platform, or engage with such third parties, we encourage you to read the distinct privacy policy of every third-party you engage with.

For example, we may aggregate your Usage Data to calculate the percentage of users accessing a specific Platform feature. However, if we combine or connect Aggregated Data with your personal information so that it can directly or indirectly identify you, we treat the combined data as personal information which will be used in accordance with this Privacy Policy.

In this case, we may have to cancel access to our services, but we will notify you if this is the case at the time.

If you are sharing personal information with us from a third party data subject, you warrant to and in favour of us that you have the informed consent of that data subject to share their personal information with us for the use of our services and indemnify us against any third-party claims that may arise through our processing of such personal data.

You are welcome to request a copy of a recording or interaction you have with us.

Marketing

We strive to provide you with choices regarding certain personal information uses, particularly around marketing and advertising. To manifest your rights attached to any marketing sent to you as an existing client, please use the in-built prompts provided on those communications, or contact us.

You will receive marketing communications from us if you have requested our services, requested information from us, or provided us with your details in any other circumstance and, in each case, have not opted-out of receiving that marketing.

You can ask us to stop sending you marketing messages at any time by using the built-in prompts or contacting us and requesting us to cease or change your marketing preferences. Where you opt-out of receiving these marketing messages, this opt-out will not apply to other personal information of yours which we process for another lawful basis or necessary communications we send when you use our Services.

Third-Party Marketing

Whilst we may use your personal information within our company, we will get your express opt-in consent before we share your personal information publicly with any entity outside of MyPerks for marketing.

Change of Purpose

We will only use your personal information for the purposes for which we collected it, unless we reasonably consider that we need to use it for another reason and that reason is compatible with the original purpose. If you wish to get an explanation as to how the processing for the new purpose is compatible with the original purpose, please contact us.

If we need to use your personal information for an unrelated purpose, we will notify you and we will explain the legal basis which allows us to do so.

Please note that we may process your personal information without your knowledge or consent, in compliance with the above rules, where this is required or permitted by law.

 

  1. Disclosures Of Your Personal Information

We may have to share your personal information with the parties set out below for the purposes set out in the table above.

  • Internal Third Parties as set out in the Glossary;
  • External Third Parties as set out in the Glossary;
  • Third parties to whom we may choose to sell, transfer, or merge parts of our company or our assets. Alternatively, we may seek to acquire other organisations or merge with them. If a change happens to our company, we may continue to use your personal information in the same way as set out in this Privacy Policy.

We require all third parties to respect the security of your personal information and to treat it in accordance with the law. We do not allow our third-party service providers to use your personal information for their own purposes and only permit them to process your personal information or those of your clients and users in accordance with our instructions and standards.

  1. Cookies

The Platform may make use of “cookies” to automatically collect information and data through the standard operation of the Internet servers. “Cookies” are small text files a platform can use (and which we may use) to recognise repeat users, facilitate the user’s on-going access to and use of a platform and allow a platform to track usage behaviour and compile aggregate data that will allow the platform operator to improve the functionality of the platform and its content, and to display more focused advertising to a user by way of third party tools.

The type of information collected by cookies is not used to personally identify you. If you do not want information collected using cookies, there is a simple procedure in most browsers that allows you to deny or accept the cookie feature. Please note that cookies may be necessary to provide you with certain features available on our Platform and thus if you disable the cookies on your browser you may not be able to use those features, and your access to our Platform will therefore be limited. If you do not disable “cookies”, you are deemed to consent to our use of any personal information collected using those cookies, subject to the provisions of this Privacy Policy and our other policies or terms.

  1. International Transfers

We may share and process your personal information outside of South Africa for the purpose of cloud storage or to engage with third parties.  

Whenever we may transfer your personal information out of South Africa, we will ensure a similar degree of protection is afforded to it by ensuring at least one of the following safeguards is implemented:

  • We will only transfer your personal information to countries that have appropriate data protection legislation in place similar to that of South Africa; and/or
  • Where we use service providers, we may use specific contracts/clauses which ensure personal information is processed and secured lawfully.
  1. Data Security

We have put in place appropriate security measures to prevent your personal information from being accidentally lost, used, or accessed in an unauthorised way.  We also limit access to your personal information to those employees, agents, contractors and other third parties who have a legitimate need to know. They will only process your personal information on our instruction and are subject to a duty of confidentiality.

We have put in place procedures to deal with any suspected personal information breach and will notify you and the Information Regulator of a breach where we are legally required to do so.

  1. Data Retention

We will only retain your personal information for as long as necessary to fulfil the purpose we collected it for including any legal, accounting, or reporting requirements.

To determine the appropriate retention period for personal information, we consider the amount, nature, and sensitivity of the personal information, the potential risk of harm from unauthorised use or disclosure of your personal information, the purpose for which we process your personal information, any other South African applicable law requiring us to retain the personal information and whether we can achieve those purposes through other means, and the applicable legal requirements.

We may also anonymise your personal information (so that it can no longer be associated with you) for research or statistical purposes in which case we may use this information indefinitely without further notice to you.

  1. Your Legal Rights

You have rights in relation to your personal information where we are the relevant “Responsible Party” over such personal information. Please contact us to find out more about, or manifest, these rights:

  • request access to your personal information;
  • request correction of your personal information;
  • request erasure of your personal information;
  • object to the processing of your personal information;
  • request a restriction of processing your personal information;
  • request transfer of your personal information; and/or
  • right to withdraw consent.

You will not have to pay a fee to access your personal information (or to exercise any of the other rights). However, we may charge a reasonable fee if your request is clearly unfounded, repetitive, or excessive. Alternatively, we may refuse to comply with your request in these circumstances.

We may need to request specific information from you to help us confirm your identity and ensure your right to access your personal information (or to exercise any of your other rights). This is a security measure to ensure that personal information is not disclosed to any person who has no right to receive it. We may also contact you to ask you for further information in relation to your request to speed up our response.

We try to respond to all legitimate requests within one month. Occasionally it may take us longer than a month if your request is particularly complex or you have made a number of requests. In this case, we will notify you and keep you updated.

Users with citizenships from jurisdictions other than South Africa, please note that we comply with South African data protection laws when processing your personal information as we are a South African entity. Should foreign law be applicable to your use of the Services and/or the Platform in any way, including how we may process your personal information, please contact us and we will gladly engage with you on your rights.

 

 

  1. Glossary

 

Lawful Basis for processing:

Legitimate Interest means the interest of our organisation in conducting and managing our organisation to enable us to give you the best service and the most secure experience. We make sure we consider and balance any potential impact on you (both positive and negative) and your rights before we process your personal information for our legitimate interests. We do not use your personal information for activities where our interests are overridden by the impact on you (unless we have your consent or are otherwise required or permitted to by law). You can obtain further information about how we assess our legitimate interests against any potential impact on you in respect of specific activities by contacting us.

Performance of Contract means processing your personal information where it is necessary for the performance of a contract to which you are a party or to take steps at your request before entering into such a contract.

Complying with a legal or regulatory obligation means processing your personal information where it is necessary for compliance with a legal or regulatory obligation that we are subject to.

Express consent means the confirmed express consent you have provided to our processing of your personal information by actively accepting this Privacy Policy.

Third Parties who we share personal data with:

Internal Third Parties means other entities or parties in the MyPerks group acting as joint responsible parties or operators.

External Third Parties means: 

  • Authorised third-party service providers under contract with MyPerks who need your personal information in order to contact and transact with you pursuant to your use of the Services;
  • service providers acting as operators;
  • South African or other national governments and/or their respective authorities pursuant to our adherence with anti-corruption and crime-fighting legislation; and/or
  • professional advisers acting as operators or joint responsible parties including lawyers, bankers, auditors and insurers based in South Africa who provide consultancy, banking, legal, insurance and accounting services as required.

 

Your Legal Rights:

Request access to your personal information (commonly known as a “data subject access request”). This enables you to receive a copy of the personal information we hold about you and to check that we are lawfully processing it.

Request correction of the personal information that we hold about you. This enables you to have any incomplete or inaccurate data we hold about you corrected, though we may need to verify the accuracy of the new data you provide to us.

Request erasure of your personal information. This enables you to ask us to delete or remove personal information where there is no valid reason for us continuing to process it. You also have the right to ask us to delete or remove your personal information where you have successfully exercised your right to object to processing (see below), where we may have processed your information unlawfully or where we are required to erase your personal information to comply with local law. Note, however, that we may not always be able to comply with your request of erasure for specific legal reasons which will be communicated to you, if applicable, at the time of your request.

Object to processing of your personal information where we are relying on a legitimate interest (or those of a third party) and there is something about your situation which makes you want to object to processing on this ground as you feel it impacts on your fundamental rights and freedoms. You also have the right to object where we are processing your personal information for direct marketing purposes. In some cases, we may demonstrate that we have compelling legitimate grounds to process your information which override your rights and freedoms.

Request restriction of processing of your personal information. This enables you to ask us to suspend the processing of your personal information in the following scenarios:

  • if you want us to establish the data’s accuracy;
  • where our use of the data is unlawful but you do not want us to erase it;
  • where you need us to hold the data even if we no longer require it as you need it to establish, exercise or defend legal claims; or
  • you have objected to our use of your data, but we need to verify whether we have overriding legitimate grounds to use it.

Request the transfer of your personal information to you or to a third party. We will provide to you, or a third party you have chosen, your personal information in a structured, commonly used, machine-readable format. Note that this right only applies to automated information which you initially provided consent for us to use or where we used the information to perform on a contract with you.

Withdraw consent at any time where we are relying on consent to process your personal information. However, this will not affect the lawfulness of any processing carried out before you withdraw your consent. If you withdraw your consent, we may not be able to provide certain Platform access or Services to you. We will advise you if this is the case at the time you withdraw your consent. Please take note that regardless of your right to withdraw consent under POPI, other South African legislation applies and may require that we continue to process your data to comply with anti-corruption, crime-fighting and/or other national legislation, which you expressly understand and agree to.
