Privacy Policy
Last updated: 25 August 2026.
Who we are and our role
Glamreelvo.net operates this informational website focused on African entrepreneurs. We act as the responsible party under the Protection of Personal Information Act (POPIA) in South Africa. Our contact details are [email protected], 29 Forest Rd, Kenwyn, Cape Town, 7780 and +27 77 000 7341.
Who this notice applies to
This policy covers all visitors to the site, including readers of our blog posts about African entrepreneurship, users who submit enquiries through the contact form, and anyone whose personal information we process in connection with the site.
Types of personal information we collect
We obtain contact details such as names and email addresses when you use the contact form. We also collect technical information including IP addresses, browser type and device identifiers through server logs and the cookie banner. Blog interaction data such as pages viewed may be recorded anonymously where possible.
Purposes for processing and legal bases
We process contact information to respond to enquiries on the basis of consent and legitimate interest in maintaining communication. Log data supports site security and functionality under legitimate interest. Blog analytics help improve content relevance on the same basis. No processing occurs for direct marketing without separate consent.
Whether supplying information is mandatory
Providing contact details via the form is voluntary. Refusing to supply them means we cannot reply to your message. Technical data is collected automatically and cannot be declined without disabling site access.
Cookies and similar technologies
We use essential cookies for basic site operation and optional analytics cookies. Full details appear in the separate cookie notice referenced by the site-wide banner. You can manage preferences through the banner controls at any time.
Recipients and service providers
Information may be shared with hosting providers, email delivery services and analytics platforms that act as operators under POPIA. We disclose data only when required by law or to protect legal rights. No sale of personal information occurs.
Cross-border transfers
Some service providers may be located outside South Africa. In such cases we rely on contractual safeguards and adequacy assessments to protect your information in line with POPIA requirements.
How long we keep information
Contact records are retained for up to three years after the last interaction. Server logs are kept for twelve months. Blog analytics data is aggregated or deleted after twenty-four months unless longer retention is needed for legal compliance.
Security measures and data minimisation
We apply reasonable technical and organisational steps including encryption in transit, access controls and regular reviews. Data collection is limited to what is necessary for the stated purposes. No guarantee against all breaches is made.
Your rights under POPIA
You may request access, correction, deletion or restriction of your personal information. You can also object to certain processing. Submit requests using the contact form or by emailing [email protected]. We will respond within the timeframes required by law.
Withdrawing consent and opting out of marketing
Where processing relies on consent you may withdraw it at any time by contacting us. The site does not send direct marketing but if future newsletters are introduced an unsubscribe option will be provided in every message.
Complaints to the regulator
If you are unsatisfied with our response you may lodge a complaint with the Information Regulator of South Africa at their official address or through their website.
Age restrictions and children
The site is intended for adults. We do not knowingly collect personal information from individuals under eighteen. If we become aware of such data it will be deleted promptly.
Automated decisions and profiling
No automated decision-making or profiling that produces legal effects occurs on this site.
Updates to this policy
We may revise the notice to reflect legal changes or operational adjustments. The date at the top indicates the current version. Continued use of the site after updates constitutes acceptance of the revised terms.
