Your privacy matters. This policy explains how we handle personal info under South African law and the POPIA.

What we collect

We gather email, contact data, and work info through our forms and group tasks.

• Email and name—when you join or contact us.
• Phone number—if you request a callback or invite.
• Basic work or skill background—shared only if you want peer group fit.
• Feedback and review logs from peer events.

How we use data

All info supports clear replies, peer reviews, and improved group service.

• Send group, event, or support emails as needed.
• Match skills to peer teams, or reply to custom info requests.
• Maintain secure review and feedback logs for peers.
• Protect our site and group against misuse or outside threats.

Legal basis for data use

We process based on consent, as per South Africa's POPIA rules.

Your opt-in is needed whenever we keep or review personal info—clear and direct at each step.

Who can access your data

Your info is shared only as needed to help the group or if law needs it.

• Peers see group logs, but only what applies to their review or task—not your full details.
• Mentors get access for support and project review only.
• Law or auditors may see info if rules require or to keep us compliant.

How we protect your data

Our team uses encryption and access logs to keep your info safe. Only staff or mentors who need it may view details. Regular checks keep up our standards. Data is not kept after your group or project ends—unless the law says otherwise.

Your rights

Your rights under South Africa's POPIA include view, fix, and erase of personal data.

• See what info we keep, on request.
• Ask for errors to be fixed or details removed.
• Opt out of peer logs or feedback emails at any time.
• Ask for a copy of your data file, in simple format.
