Privacy Policy

This policy is issued in terms of the Protection of Personal Information Act 4 of 2013 ("POPIA"). Aurevyntor Financial Consulting (Pty) Ltd, trading as Aurevyntor, is the responsible party for the processing of personal information described below. Each processing activity is set out together with the legal basis relied upon under section 11 of POPIA, being: consent of the data subject; necessity for the conclusion or performance of a contract; compliance with a legal obligation; or a legitimate interest of Aurevyntor that is not overridden by the data subject's interests.

1. Contact form

When a visitor to aurevyntor.com submits the contact form, we process the name, email address, phone number (if provided) and the content of the enquiry. This processing is necessary to take pre-contractual steps at the data subject's request — namely to respond to enquiries about our financial consulting services — and is therefore lawful under the "necessary for performance of a contract" ground. Where the enquiry does not lead to a contract, continued retention of the correspondence is based on our legitimate interest in maintaining a record of client communications.

2. Email subscription

Where a visitor subscribes to receive email updates from Aurevyntor, we process the email address supplied and the date of subscription. This processing is based on the data subject's consent, given by the act of subscribing. Consent may be withdrawn at any time by using the unsubscribe link in any email or by contacting us at [email protected]; withdrawal does not affect the lawfulness of processing carried out before withdrawal.

3. Cookies and similar technology

aurevyntor.com uses cookies as described in our separate Cookie Policy. Strictly necessary cookies are processed on the basis of our legitimate interest in operating a functional website. Analytics and marketing cookies are processed only on the basis of consent obtained through the cookie banner.

4. Hosting and further recipients

Personal information submitted through the contact form and the email subscription is stored on servers operated by our hosting and email-delivery service providers. These providers act as operators, as defined in POPIA, and process personal information only on our documented instructions and under a written operator agreement that imposes security safeguards equivalent to those required of Aurevyntor itself. We do not sell or otherwise trade personal information to third parties.

5. Cross-border transfers

Where an operator referred to in clause 4 processes personal information outside South Africa, such transfer takes place only where the recipient is subject to laws, binding corporate rules or contractual provisions that uphold principles for reasonable processing substantially similar to those in POPIA, or where the data subject has consented to the transfer.

6. Purpose and legal basis — summary table

7. Retention

Contact form correspondence is retained for 24 months from the date of last contact, unless a longer period is required to comply with a legal obligation applicable to financial consulting services or to establish, exercise or defend a legal claim. Email subscription records are retained for as long as the subscription remains active, and for 12 months after unsubscription to give effect to suppression obligations.

8. Security safeguards

Aurevyntor maintains appropriate, reasonable technical and organisational measures, as required by section 19 of POPIA, to safeguard the integrity and confidentiality of personal information against loss, damage, unauthorised destruction or unlawful access, including access controls, encryption in transit and restriction of access to personal information to personnel who require it.

9. Data subject rights

Subject to the requirements and exceptions set out in POPIA, a data subject has the right to: be notified that personal information is being collected; access personal information held about them; request correction or deletion of inaccurate, irrelevant, excessive, out of date, incomplete, misleading or unlawfully obtained personal information; object to processing based on legitimate interest or direct marketing; withdraw consent where processing is based on consent; and lodge a complaint with the Information Regulator. Requests may be directed to [email protected] or +27 41 590 6847. We will respond within a reasonable time and, in any event, within the timeframes prescribed by POPIA.

10. Complaints to the Information Regulator

A data subject who is not satisfied with our handling of a request or complaint may lodge a complaint with the Information Regulator of South Africa, whose contact details are published at inforegulator.org.za.
