How long will your information be held?
Xeperno does not store your personal information for longer than is necessary for the initial intended purpose for which it was collected for. We safely keep our user information on our database and delete it after 3 years of unenrolling with us. However, a client can explicitly request to be deleted after the term of unenrolling.
In order to protect User personal information, we have the following in place:
POPIA dictates that privacy policies have to consider the following:
- Users can visit our site anonymously.
- Users are able to request for the change of their personal information.
- We do not allow third party behavioural tracking.
- We do not specifically market to children under 13 years of age.
- Users can request to unsubscribe from all correspondences from us.
- We use encryption to keep your data private while in transit.
- We review our information collection, storage, and processing practices, including physical security measures, to prevent unauthorized access to our systems.
- We restrict access to personal information to Xeperno employees, contractors, and agents who need that information in order to process it. Anyone with this access is subject to strict contractual confidentiality obligations and may be disciplined or terminated if they fail to meet these obligations.
- For payments, we use the provider, Payfast (their privacy policies can be found here) and direct bank transfer.
Data Security
We take reasonable measures to protect your information from unauthorized access, loss, misuse, or alteration.
