Other than as set out in this privacy policy we will not share your personal information unless we are required to do so by law.  

What about cookies?  

Cookies are alphanumeric identifiers that we transfer to your computer's hard drive through your web browser to enable our systems to recognise your browser and to automatically collect information from your computer such as your IP address and other details about your computer which are automatically collected by our web server, operating system and browser type, for system administration and to report aggregate information to us. This is statistical data about our users' browsing actions and patterns, and does not identify any individual.  

The "Help" menu on the menu bar of most browsers will tell you how to prevent your browser from accepting new cookies, how to have the browser notify you when you receive a new cookie and how to disable cookies altogether. Additionally, you can disable or delete similar data used by browser add-ons, such as flash cookies, by changing the add-on's settings or visiting the website of its manufacturer.  

Third Party Service Providers  

We employ other companies and individuals to perform certain ancillary functions on our behalf. They must process any personal information in accordance with this policy and as required by South African data protection legislation.  

Protection of the Company and others  

We will only release personal information when we believe that such a release is appropriate to comply with the law; enforce or apply our mandated or other agreements; or protect the rights, property or safety of the Company. This includes exchanging information with other companies and organisations for fraud protection. Obviously, however, this does not include selling, sharing or otherwise disclosing personally identifiable information from insured persons or entities for commercial purposes in a way that is contrary to the commitments made in this privacy policy.  

With the consent of the relevant party, and other than as set out above, such party will receive notice when information about them might go to third parties and you will have an opportunity to choose not to share the information.  

How secure is the information held by us?  

We maintain appropriate physical, electronic and procedural safeguards in connection with the collection, storage and disclosure of personally identifiable information.

Google AdWords Conversion Tracking uses 'cookies' – text files placed on your computer – to help the website analyse how users use the site when they click on a Google ad. The cookies are valid for a maximum of 90 days. Personal data will not be stored. As long as the cookie is valid, Google and we as website operators can see that you clicked on an ad and reached a specific target page (e.g. order confirmation page, newsletter registration).

In order to ensure that fonts used on this website are uniform, this website uses so-called 'Web Fonts' provided by Google. When you access a page on our website, your browser will load the required web fonts into your browser cache to correctly display text and fonts.  

In order to do this, your browser must establish a connection with Google’s servers. As a result, Google will learn that your IP address was used to access our website. The use of Google Web Fonts is based on our interest in presenting our online content in a uniform and appealing way. According to Article 6, Sect. 1 lit. f, GDPR, this is a legitimate interest.  

Should your browser not support Web Fonts, a standard font installed on your computer will be used.

Google Maps 

Google Maps is an online map service that makes geographical information more readable for you as a user via your device. Among other things, directions are displayed or map sections of a location can be integrated into a website.  

When Google Maps is started, your browser establishes a connection to Google's servers. This enables Google to know that our website has been accessed via your IP address. The use of Google Maps enables Google to collect and process data on the use of the service. 

In addition to your IP address, Google Maps processes search terms entered and latitude and longitude coordinates for the provision of this service. If you use the route planner function of Google Maps, the starting address entered will also be stored. This data processing takes place exclusively through your voluntary use of Google Maps and is not within our sphere of influence. 

The data processing terms and conditions for Google products and the standard contractual clauses for data transfers to third countries can be found at https://business.safety.google/adsprocessorterms/ 

 

YouTube  

We use YouTube for the integration of videos. The videos have been embedded in the extended data protection mode.  

YouTube's website uses cookies to collect information about the users of its website. YouTube uses them, among other things, to collect video statistics, to prevent fraud and to improve user-friendliness.  

When using YouTube, a connection is established with the Google DoubleClick network. Starting the video can trigger further data processing. We have no influence on this.  

For more information about privacy at YouTube, please see YouTube's privacy policy at: http://www.youtube.com/t/privacy_at_youtube  

DoubleClick  
Doubleclick by Google is a service offered by Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland ('Google').  

Doubleclick by Google uses cookies to serve ads relevant to you. Your browser is assigned a pseudonymous identification number (ID) to check which ads have been displayed in your browser and which ads have been called up. The cookies do not contain any personal information. The use of DoubleClick cookies only allows Google and its partner websites to serve ads based on previous visits to our or other websites on the Internet. The information generated by the cookies is transmitted by Google to a server in the USA for analysis and stored there. Under no circumstances will Google match your data with other data collected by Google.  

By using our website, you consent to the processing of data about you by Google and to the manner of data processing described above, as well as to the named purpose.  

You may refuse the use of cookies by selecting the appropriate settings on your browser. You can also prevent Google from collecting data generated by the cookie and relating to your use of the website, and from processing this data, by downloading and installing the browser plug-in available at the following link under 'Extension for DoubleClick deactivation'.  

For more information about DoubleClick by Google and privacy, please visit: https://policies.google.com/technologies/ads?hl=en  

Facebook Custom Audience  

Our website uses Facebook Website Custom Audiences and has integrated the so-called Facebook pixel.  

This pixel is used to collect pseudonymous information about the use of this website (e.g. information about viewed content). Data transmitted by the pixel can be used to target you on Facebook with individualised advertising, provided you have a Facebook account.  

jQuery 

We use jQuery CDN services by the jQuery Foundation to quickly and easily deliver our website and subpages to you on different devices. jQuery is distributed via the Content Delivery Network (CDN) of the American software company StackPath (LCC 2012 McKinney Ave. Suite 1100, Dallas, TX 75201, USA). This service stores, manages and processes your personal data. 

A content delivery network (CDN) is a network of regionally distributed servers that are connected to each other via the Internet. Through this network content and especially very large files, can be delivered quickly – even in peak demand periods. jQuery creates a copy of our website on its servers. Thus, our website can be delivered as quickly as possible. This means the data transfer to your browser is shortened by a CDN. 

It goes without saying that we want to provide you with a comprehensive and well-functioning service on our website. This of course includes our website loading swiftly. Thanks to jQuery you can load our website much faster. The implementation of jQuery is particularly helpful for users from abroad, since the page can then be delivered from a server nearby. 

StackPath’s privacy policy explicitly mentions that StackPath uses aggregated and anonymised data of various services (such as jQuery) for both, security enhancement and its own services. However, it is impossible for you to be personally identified with the use of this data. 

If you want to avoid this data transfer, you always have the option to use JavaScript blockers such as ghostery.com or noscript.net. You can also simply deactivate the execution of JavaScript codes in your browser. If you decide to deactivate JavaScript codes, the usual functions will also change. For example, websites may no longer load as quickly. 

For more information please click on the following link: https://privacy-policy.openjsf.org  

Google reCAPTCHA 

We use Google's reCAPTCHA service, which protects our site from spam and misuse. The service prevents automated software (so-called bots) from executing abusive activities on our websites, which means that it is checked whether the entries made actually come from a human being. Google collects the following data:  

Referrer (address of the page where the captcha is used) IP address of the user Google account (if the user is registered with Google, this is recognized and assigned). 

The input behavior of the user (eg, input speed into the form fields, order of selection of the input fields by the user) is used to improve pattern recognition on Google. 

Browser, browser size and resolution, browser plugins, date, language settings presentation instructions (CSS) and scripts (Javascript) of the website mouse and touch events within the page. 

Google also reads cookies from other Google services, such as Gmail, Search, and Analytics. All data are encrypted and sent to Google. There is no reading or saving of personal data from the input fields of the respective form.  

For more information about Google's privacy policy, visit http://www.google.com/policies/privacy/  

Processing for the purpose of carrying out our business processes 

Contact Form and Contacting via e-mail 

When contacting us (via online form or e-mail), the data provided by the user will be processed exclusively for processing the inquiry and its handling. 

Any other use of the data will only take place based on the given consent from the user. 

The users' data will be stored in our Customer Relationship Management System (Salesforce) or a comparable software/database. The legal retention periods for business letters apply. 

Newsletter and e-mail communication 

With the following information we inform you about the contents of our newsletter and e-mail communication as well as the registration, dispatch and statistical evaluation procedure and your rights of objection. By subscribing to our newsletter you agree to the receipt and the described procedures. 

Consent 

As part of the registration for our newsletter and email communication, we obtain the consent of our supporters through a dedicated checkbox added in our various channels. The registrations for the newsletter and email communication are recorded for the fulfilment of legal obligations of proof. This includes the storage of the time of registration and confirmation. 

E-mail tool 

The newsletter and e-mail communication is sent out by using the email tool Marketing Cloud - hereinafter referred to as "dispatch service provider". The data protection regulations of the email tool provider can be viewed here: https://www.salesforce.com/eu/company/privacy/  

According to its own information, the email tool provider can use this data in pseudonymous form - i.e. without allocation to a user, to optimise or improve its own services, e.g. to technically optimise the dispatch and presentation of the newsletter and email communication or for statistical purposes in order to determine from which countries the recipients come. However, the email tool provider does not use the data of our newsletter recipients to contact themselves or to pass the data on to third parties. 

Registration data 

To register for the newsletter and email communication, you must enter your email address, first name and surname as well as check the consent checkbox. 

Online events, such as online screening of docufilms

On our website, online events will be available on specific dates. To participate in them, you must register for the event, informing personal data such as your name and e-mail. The day before the event you will receive an e-mail from us with the link and details of the online screening. And after the event you will receive a thank-you e-mail.

The legal basis for this processing is your consent in accordance with art. 6 (1) (a) General Data Protection Regulation, 2016 ("GDPR") & Protection of Personal Information Act, 2013 (" POPIA ")

In the event registration process, you will also be able to voluntarily opt-in to receive future communications from us about other events and marketing. The legal basis for this is your additional consent in accordance with art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR/POPIA, which is not a requirement for you to participate in the event.

Your data will be stored from your registration and for the duration of the event, unless you withdraw your consent or other legal bases, or retention periods allow or require storage for a longer time.

You can withdraw your consent at any time. The withdrawal of your consent does not affect the lawfulness of processing based on consent before its withdrawal.

For the reproduction of the online events we may use service providers, such as Slido. These providers may have access to your personal data, such as your IP address. For more information about the service provider, please see: (Legal | Slido - Audience Interaction Made Easy).

When using these tools on our website, your data may be transferred to third countries, such as the United States. Based on the European Commission's adequacy decision of 10 July 2023 on the EU-US Data Privacy Framework (DPF), it was found that the United States ensures an adequate level of protection – comparable to that of the European Union – for transferred personal data transferred to US companies under the new framework.

If personal data is transferred to third countries for which there is no adequacy decision of the European Commission, this is done on the basis of the standard contractual clauses.

Statistical survey and analyses 

The newsletters and email communication contain a so-called "web-beacon", i.e. a pixel-sized file which is retrieved from the server of the email tool provider when the newsletter or email communication is opened. Within the scope of this retrieval, technical information, such as information about the browser and your system, as well as your IP address and time of retrieval are initially collected. This information is used to technically improve the services based on the technical data or the target groups and their reading behaviour based on their retrieval locations (which can be determined using the IP address) or access times.  

The statistical surveys also include determining whether the newsletters and email communications are opened, when they are opened and which links are clicked. For technical reasons, this information can be assigned to the individual newsletter recipients. However, it is not our intention, nor that of the email tool provider, to observe individual users. The evaluations serve us much more to recognise the reading habits of our users and to adapt our contents to them or to send different contents according to the interests of our users. 

Legal bases 

The use of the email tool provider, the performance of statistical surveys and analysis as well as the logging of the registration process shall be based on our legitimate interests. 

Termination/Revocation 

You can cancel the receipt of our newsletter and email communication at any time, i.e. revoke your consent. You will find a link to opt out at the end of each newsletter and email communication. If the users have cancelled the newsletter or email communication reception, the personal data of the users processed for its dispatch will be deleted. 

Donations and sponsorship

Cookie Policy 

General Information 

Cookies are information transmitted by our web server or third-party web servers to the users' web browsers where they are stored for later retrieval. Cookies can be in the form of small files or any other types of information storage.  

In the case that users do not want that cookies are stored on their computer, they will be asked to disable the corresponding option in their browser's system settings. Saved cookies may be deleted in the system settings of the browser. The exclusion of cookies can lead to functional impairments of this online service. 

Consent management by Usercentrics 

We use the Usercentrics Consent Management Platform as a consent management tool as part of the Analytics activities on our website. The Usercentrics Consent Management Platform collects log file and consent data using JavaScript. This JavaScript enables us to inform users about their consent to certain tags on our website and to obtain, manage and document this consent. 

We process the following data in the process: 

  • Consent data or data of consent (anonymized log data (Consent ID, Processor ID, Controller ID), Consent Status, Timestamp).
  • Device data (e.g. shortened IP addresses (IP v4, IP v6), device information, timestamp)
  • User data (e.g. e-mail, ID, browser information, SettingIDs, Changelog)

The ConsentID (contains the above data), the Consent status incl. timestamp are stored in the local memory of your browser and simultaneously on the cloud servers used. Further processing will only take place if you submit a request for information or revoke your consent. In this case, the relevant information is provided to us in a compact data format in an easily readable text form for the purpose of data exchange (JSON file). 

No user information is stored for the statistics of the use of the granted or not granted consent. Only the frequency and locations of clicks are stored. 

The personal data is stored on a Google Cloud server located in the EU (Brussels, Belgium or Frankfurt am Main, Germany). 

The purpose of the data processing is the analysis and management of the consents granted, in order to comply with our obligation of a GDPR-compliant consent management. The use of Usercentrics serves the purpose of proving granted and non-granted consents as well as their management. 

Our legitimate interest lies in the legally secure documentation and verifiability of consents, the control of marketing measures on the basis of the consent granted as well as the optimization of consent rates. 

The data is deleted as soon as it is no longer required. The associated cookie has a term of 60 days.  

Objection Options 

After a given consent, you may object to the use of cookies that are used for measuring the range of coverage and promotional purposes here.  

Changes to the Data Privacy Policy 

We reserve the right to change this Data Privacy Policy with regards to the data processing, in order to adapt it to changed legal situations, to changes of the online service or of the data processing. 

If users' consents are required or if elements of the Data Privacy Policy contain provisions in regards to the contractual relationship with the users, the changes will only be made with the consent of the users. 

Users are requested to keep themselves informed about the content of this Data Privacy Policy on a regular basis.
