We are committed to handling personal information responsibly and in line with applicable data protection laws in the countries where we operate, including South Africa’s Protection of Personal Information Act (POPIA) and Nigeria’s data protection framework (including the Nigeria Data Protection Act, 2023 and related instruments).

When you visit our website, we may collect:
-
IP address, device type, browser type, pages visited, time spent, referral source
-
Cookie data and similar technologies (see “Cookies” below)
C. Information from third parties (where applicable)
We may receive information from:
-
People who refer you to us (e.g., a landlord, agent, or business contact)
-
Public sources or partners where necessary for service delivery
POPIA requires us to inform you where information is collected from a source other than you, where applicable.
3) Why we collect and use your information
We use personal information to:
-
Respond to enquiries and communicate with you
-
Provide quotes, site assessments, property consultations, and related services
-
Deliver contracted services (security operations, property support, management coordination)
-
Manage our relationship with clients, suppliers, and partners (including recordkeeping)
-
Improve our website and service experience (analytics and performance)
-
Comply with legal obligations and protect against fraud, misuse, or security incidents
4) Lawful basis for processing
We process personal information only when we have a lawful basis to do so, such as:
-
Your consent (e.g., when you submit a form)
-
Contract / steps before a contract (e.g., providing a quote or delivering services)
-
Legal obligations (e.g., recordkeeping and compliance)
-
Legitimate interests (e.g., running and improving our business, preventing abuse), where permitted and balanced with your rights
Nigeria’s data protection framework recognises lawful processing principles and also includes requirements around governance such as appointing a data protection officer and managing breach notifications in certain circumstances.
5) Cookies and similar technologies
We may use cookies and similar technologies to:
-
Keep the website functioning properly
-
Understand website traffic and usage patterns
-
Improve performance and user experience
Where required, we will request cookie preferences via a banner or settings tool.
You can control cookies through your browser settings. Disabling cookies may affect parts of the website.
6) Sharing and disclosure of information
We do not sell your personal information.
We may share information with:
-
Service providers who support our operations (e.g., website hosting, email delivery, form tools, analytics, IT support)
-
Operational partners/contractors involved in delivering services (as needed and appropriate)
-
Professional advisers (e.g., legal, accounting) where necessary
-
Regulators, law enforcement, or courts when required by law or to protect rights and safety
We only share what is necessary and expect third parties to protect information appropriately.
7) Cross-border data transfers
Because we operate across South Africa and Nigeria and may use cloud-based tools, your information may be processed or stored outside the country where it was collected.
Where cross-border transfers occur, we take steps to ensure an appropriate level of protection and lawful transfer mechanisms, consistent with POPIA transparency expectations and Nigeria’s cross-border transfer requirements.
8) Security safeguards
We implement reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect personal information against loss, misuse, unauthorised access, or disclosure. This may include access controls, secure storage, and role-based permissions.
No system is 100% secure, but we continuously improve our security practices.
9) Data retention
We keep personal information only for as long as needed to:
-
fulfil the purpose it was collected for,
-
meet legal, accounting, or reporting requirements,
-
and resolve disputes or enforce agreements.
When information is no longer required, we will delete, de-identify, or securely destroy it, where appropriate.
10) Your rights
Subject to applicable law, you may have rights to:
-
Request access to the personal information we hold about you
-
Request correction of inaccurate or incomplete information
-
Object to processing in certain situations
-
