and is committed to protecting your personal information.

This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect when you use our website, respond to our advertising,

complete one of our forms, or use our services. It explains why we collect it, how we use it, who we share it with,

and what rights you have under the Protection of Personal Information Act 4 of 2013 ("POPIA").

We are the "responsible party" for the personal information described in this policy.

2. Information We Collect

Information about your customers, services, products, promotions, competitors, and what you want us

to include or avoid in your content

Your preferences for how you approve posts

Review and reputation information

Your Google Business Profile or Google review link, and publicly available information from that profile

Information from social media advertising

When you respond to one of our Facebook or Instagram adverts or lead forms, the details you submit are passed

to us through Meta's advertising tools and our systems

Technical information

Browser type, device information and general website usage information, including through cookies

Anything else you choose to give us when you communicate with us.

We do not ask for your passwords. Please never send us passwords through a form, email or message.

3. How We Use Your Information

We use your information to:

Respond to enquiries and requests

Set up, create, schedule and publish social media content on your behalf, and manage your CRM or

related tools where you have asked us to

Prepare and deliver your Free Review Audit and Google Business Profile services

Communicate with you about our services, including to request approvals and send instructions

Provide, improve and manage our services

Invoice you and keep business and accounting records

Protect our website and systems against misuse, fraud or unauthorised activity

Meet our legal obligations

We will not use your personal information for unrelated purposes without a lawful basis.

4. Photos and Images of People

If you upload photos or images that show people (for example, your team or customers), you confirm that those

people have agreed to be shown in content we create and publish for you.

If a person in a photo asks for it to be removed, tell us at the email address below.

We will stop using that image in future content and remove it from your accounts where we can.

We cannot control copies already shared or saved by others.

5. Access to Your Accounts

To deliver our services, we may ask you to give us access to your business accounts, for example as a

Partner or Admin in Meta Business Suite, a Manager on your Google Business Profile, or through your CRM.

We only use this access to do the work you have asked for.

You remain the owner of your accounts, pages and content.

You can remove our access at any time. We will also ask you to remove it when our services end,

if you have not already done so.

6. Marketing Communications

We may contact you by email, WhatsApp, phone or SMS about our services, offers and business updates:

where you have asked us to, or given your consent, or

where you are an existing client and the communication relates to similar services,

and you have not opted out.

You can opt out of direct marketing at any time by replying "STOP", using the unsubscribe link,

or emailing us.

Service messages, such as post approvals, onboarding instructions and account notices,

are different from marketing.

We may still send them while you are a client.

7. Sharing Your Information

We do not sell your personal information.

We share information only where needed, with trusted service providers and platforms that help us run our business

and deliver our services. These may include:

Meta (Facebook and Instagram), including for advertising and lead forms, and for publishing content on your behalf

Google, including Google Business Profile

HighLevel (HighLevel / LeadConnector), our CRM, forms and automation platform

Other tools for website hosting, email and messaging, scheduling, design, analytics, payments and other media or tools

that might arise in the future and which is needed to conduct business.

We may also disclose information if the law requires it, or to protect our rights or those of others.

These providers process information on our behalf or under their own privacy policies.

We take reasonable steps to make sure they handle your information securely and in line with the law.

8. Where Your Information Is Stored (Cross-Border Transfers)

Some of our service providers, including Meta, Google and HighLevel, store or process information on servers outside

South Africa. Where your information is sent to another country, we take reasonable steps to make sure it is protected

to a standard comparable to POPIA, for example through the provider's contractual and security commitments.

9. Google Business Profile Information

If you give us a link to your Google Business Profile or Google reviews, we may use publicly available information

from that profile to assess your online review presence and prepare your Free Review Audit. If you invite us as a

Manager, we use that access only to provide the services you requested.

This does not give DigiMuse ownership or control of your Google Business Profile.

10. How Long We Keep Your Information

We keep personal information only for as long as we need it for the purposes in this policy, or as the law requires.

When we no longer need your information, we delete or de-identify it.

11. Security

We take reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect personal information against loss, misuse,

unauthorised access, disclosure or alteration.

However, no method of transmitting or storing information online can be guaranteed to be completely secure.

If we become aware of a security compromise affecting your information, we will notify you and

the Information Regulator where POPIA requires this.

12. Your Rights

Subject to applicable law, you have the right to:

Ask what personal information we hold about you

Request access to your personal information

Request correction of inaccurate, incomplete or out-of-date information

Request deletion of information where permitted

Object to certain uses of your information

Withdraw consent where processing is based on consent

(this does not affect processing that already took place)

Opt out of direct marketing

Complain to the Information Regulator if you believe your information has been handled unlawfully

To use these rights, contact us using the details below. We may need to confirm your identity first.
